Dear Dr Romance :
I just read about you and some articles you wrote about Age Differences in Relationships and really enjoyed what you had to say and how you said it.
I now have a question: I am 49 years old and very attractive. I look like I'm in my thirties. There is this younger man, early thirties that I am very interested in. I've always been asked out and never had to ask a man out. But I don't want to miss this opportunity and would like to ask him out but I don't know how to do it.
Can you please give me advice as to how I should go about it?
Dear Reader:
Don't worry so much about asking a man on a date. I'd suggest that you ask this man for something smaller, like coffee, help with your computer, or a walk, or casual lunch with friends; it's not so devastating if it doesn't work out. Better yet, you need to get into a social circle where you can meet men you'll have a chance to know before you ask them out.
If you see a man in action within a group, and interact with him without the pressure of dating, you'll be
more able to use the skills you've developed to assess the men and choose a good one.
"Where Is Love" and The Fine Art of Squirrel Hunting will give you more information about where and how to look. "10 Reasons for Not Falling in Love" helps you look at your fears about dating and relationships and shows you how to overcome them.
