Dating Advice For Women Over 40

So you’re over 40 and getting back into dating. Whatever your reasons are, from divorce to being new in town to looking for Prince Charming, dating can be a real pain in the neck.

That’s why there is some really great dating advice for women over 40 available to you.

Let’s look at Genie as an example. She’s a 42 year old single mom, who juggles a very demanding career with the needs of her kids. Genie is looking for a man to share her life with but she really doesn’t have time or energy to waste on a long line of Mr. Wrongs.

What is the best dating advice for women over 40 that can be helpful to someone like Genie?

1. Be realistic. Being over 40 means a lot of things. You are likely to be sexier, more level headed, and more self-confident than you were in your 20s.

However, the Genies of the world need to remember that being over 40 also means you have more responsibilities in your life, and less extra energy.

You shouldn’t expect yourself to start dating someone the minute she puts herself back on the dating scene. Patience will help her find the right guy, rather than just the right now guy.

2. Be safe. It is sad that women who are in their 40s are just as likely if not more so to attract con artists and potentially dangerous guys.

Finding a girlfriend to do double dates with you when meeting new people is a great idea. It will also bolster your self-esteem to have your best bud by your side.

3. Clearly define your goals. Do you want a boyfriend? A husband? A scrabble partner? A friend with benefits? Decide what you are looking for before you start out.

This way you can ask potential guys openly what they are interested in, and eliminate the guys who aren’t looking for a relationship that meets your needs.

4. Be open-minded. Don’t set limits that will needlessly slow down your ability to meet people. “I’d never date a short man.” “I’d never date a man younger than me.”

“I’d never date a man with thinning hair.” Why? Who knows, maybe your soul mate is only 5’8″ and was born two months behind you, and maybe his hair isn’t as thick as it used to be. But he might be absolutely perfect in every other way.

So what is the best dating advice for women over 40? Keep it real. Keep it safe. Set your goals before you start out and keep an open mind. The right man for you is probably waiting just around the corner!
