How to Date When You’re Over 40

September 3rd, 2010

A 42-year old woman once came to my dating service and asked to be set up with a 35-45 year-old guy.  I suggested that she be open to dating older men, but she refused saying that she looked like she was 30.  I sat her in front of a mirror and asked, “How old do you think I am?”  She guessed that I was in my early 40’s.  I then asked, “Who looks younger, me or you?”  She admitted that I looked younger.    It’s more than possible...

Does my date like me? How to tell if your date is into you or not

August 19th, 2010

If I learned one thing from running a dating service, it’s this: you need to know if someone likes you or not.

You’ll also reduce the number of rejections you’ll get because you’ll know when something isn’t going to work out. Here are a few easy ways to tell if someone likes you: He or she introduces you to his or her family He...

Your pen pal is NOT your boyfriend..

August 17th, 2010

A few years ago, a pretty young girl, Sarah, was at my previous dating service. When I asked her if she had tried online dating, she broke into tears. She said, “I thought we’d be perfect together.

They emailed each other every day for 3 weeks, but then James stopped emailing Sarah without warning or an explanation....
