Another over 60 dating tip for you. It’s always strange to write this stuff for mature people (I am one myself) but it never ceases to amaze me how age is no barrier to idiocy. In fact age is often used as an excuse for bad decisions, lack of planning or worse, not trying. The cry “take me as I am” is often used as code for turning up at a first date dressed looking bunch of spuds with unkempt hair and scruffy nails. Just because a man is middle aged does not mean he has decided to look for a woman in an old frock, dirty boots, no makeup and her hair tied back because it’s too much trouble to wash it. True the body grows old but the senses stay young and men will always be men for good or for worse. So do yourself a favour on a first date and blow his socks off. It never hurts to make a good first impression and you never get a second chance to do so.

Pretty much any subject is OK for conversation in a western democracy unless you are a religious misogynist. However, starting out on a potential new relationship, you might be better sticking to the warm, safe and neutral subjects of -

The Weather. OK, OK it’s boring I know but what the hell.

Location. Where you are right now, the sites, the smells etc. Paint a picture for the person listening and ask them about their surroundings.

Popular Culture. We all love something, be it pop, classics, movies, theatre or books. With online dating you may be speaking to someone with the same interests. I did however, once manage a proper argument about the movie Avatar which I consider to be the worst movie ever made (if you enjoy a plot, tension, good acting).

Early doors you may be best to keep away from politics and religion. God knows, I love airing my views on the dogooder politics dragging us into oblivion but even I (outspoken) have learned to keep this well packed away.

I know lots of men who worry about their receding or non existent hairline. It’s this worry that makes men wear a syrup (a wig to you and me) and that is nearly always a mistake. Personally I can spot a wig at 50 yards  and cannot take my eyes off it after that. The only thing worse than a wig for me is twelve strands of hair parted above the left ear and dragged over a bald pate. In my estimation, women prefer a cool short haired or bald guy to a not so cool seeker after past glories.

Do you say it with flowers on a first date? Is a box of chocolates necessary for your second or third date?  This a time honoured tradition of telling someone you really like them. Is it appropriate in the early stages of dating?  The thought is important and generous; women especially love to be wooed in the traditional sense of the word. It shows that you have taken the time to think about your date before the meal, the pictures, or that special walk in the park. It will simply make her feel good about both of you. Flowers have this peculiarity of making any woman feel special, more so than any material gadgets or device possess. I wonder if Adam gave Eve flowers on their first date?  The trick is, not to take flowers with you on a date where she can’t leave them, could get messy. Roses are always a bit tricky, (as well as being potentially lethal) they can make you seem to keen. So although it may seem a little cheesy in these days of high tech on line dating, Most of the ladies I know would be happy to receive flowers.

Think about the sexiest person you can. I have a hunch that if you take this person feature by feature they may not be as good looking as others with more confidence, style and poise. Many countries  think of older women as sexy because they have come into their own and are at ease with themselves. So for me, confidence = sex appeal. The willingness to be yourself whatever your age.

So what is this confidence thing? Are the beautiful, rich and famous people all  blessed with huge amounts of the stuff?  Nope! They are usually acting confident or they got lucky in the gene pool or rich because of their parents. I know some stunning people who are crippled with shyness and insecurities. Celebrities are the most public of suicides. We are all worried about something or other but we can all find the inner beauty and strength to appear more than we are. Confidence is an aphrodisiac and if we wanted to go out with a mouse (probably illegal anyway) we would be hanging around a pet shop and not a dating site.

Do men always prefer a beautiful girl?  It may be the first thing they notice about you, it may keep a man interested for a while, it may appeal to a man’s ego, a beautiful women on their arm is like a shiny new car on the drive. Competition is high; women are resorting to cosmetic procedures…. If  beauty was the only ingredient men needed to keep them in a settled, successful marriage, then the likes of Jennifer Aniston, Joan Collins and Marilyn Monroe would never have seen the (inside) of a divorce court! The truth is men are only superficial to start with. In the dating arena, especially on line, a beautiful woman attracts only a small portion of the available men, usually the over confident shallow types who “can’t believe they have been reduced to resorting to a dating site in the first place”. So ladies you do not have to be beautiful to be loved!

What you do definately need to be is, confident; this is a universally recognised attractive quality.  If you’re dating after a divorce (and many of us who go on dating sites are) then maybe a quick assessment of you will help.

Are you in a good state of mind?  If not give yourself more time.

Are your self esteem levels high enough to cope with the ups and downs of dating?

Do you always look the best you can for you?

Do you regularly visit the hairdresser/beautician? If money is difficult have a girls night; try shop made treatments on each other.

If you need to lose some weight, plan a healthy eating regime.

Regular excercise, releases feel good hormones, and tones your physique at the same time.

Have fun ladies and remember being confident is attractive, a beautiful appearance can be plastic!

Well done for considering taking the leap back into dating! Think about it: What you bring to the now now as a more mature person is special. The fact of the matter is that now, you’ve got wisdom, experience, and real life experience to help you figure exactly what you’re looking for in a relationship. Here’s a tip for creating a profile which will help ensure your online dating success:

Make a List of your expectations about what you hope for from a future mate. This should be  reflected in your online profile. Jot down what type of person you are looking for, your expectation (i.e., friendship or marriage), your personal values and your personal interests and hobbies.

Be totally honest. Create and write an online profile which represents you. Remember, it’s about attracting quantity initially and then narrowing it down to the quality you seek
