Senior Dating: Does Age Matter?
By Tom Blake
()
About this ebook
One of the biggest issues in senior dating is the age difference between two people. As people grow older, many of them fret about their age. Granted, there are seniors who are comfortable with the affects of growing old and graciously accept what they see in the mirror. However, many older seniors who look in the mirror, particularly singles who would like to meet a mate, think, “Holy Toledo! I’m looking older. My hair has turned grey; I’ve got wrinkles.”
These singles may wonder: “If I reveal my true age in my online dating profile, or show my current picture, will that be a turn off to potential mates? Will my chances of meeting someone special diminish?
They wonder: “Does age matter in senior dating? How much of an age difference between potential mates is acceptable? Should I fib about my age on my online dating profile? Should I post an old picture, when I was younger? These questions aren’t easy to answer, there are so many variables to consider. And that’s what we are going to address in this ebook: Age.
In 26 years of writing on the subject of finding love after 50--totaling more than 4,000 newspaper columns and eNewsletter articles--I’ve heard this topic discussed by older women, older men, widows, widowers and younger women and younger men. Their opinions are all over the map. In this ebook, I shall attempt to provide points of view from a variety of people. They will shed a great deal of light on this topic.
So, if you are one of those singles wondering about the importance of age and age differences in dating, hopefully, by the end of this ebook, you’ll have your own opinions and know what’s best for you, and exactly where you stand on the Does Age Matter? question.
