Dating and finding love is a merry-go-round. Lucky the ones who are in the saddle already, installed in a loving relationship or marriage!
As a former matchmaker and dating
consultant I’ve often been
asked “Why has it become so difficult to find the right person? Where
are the
good men? What should I do to find that elusive mate?” The list goes on
and on.
In spite of our ever increasing connections, networking, and socializing
possibilities
the problem seems to grow. And it's not just older, divorced people who
say they lack opportunities but also the younger generation that wants
to settle down-- what I call the first timers.
At
the beginning of a new year, after a boring –lonely—New Year’s
Eve, many singles make a resolution that they want to find love now; the
sooner the better. Definitely in time for Valentine’s Day that is
looming on the horizon. Many websites catering to singles and their
needs offer
dating advice. I like Adventures in Delicious Dating for over
40s.
Sites that care about your personal well-being and happiness
like Positively Positive, or Dr.
Tranquility and her dating protocols are a quintessential step in
getting help—if singles want it. Some of them advertize on my Facebook page Singles
& Dating Advice. Check it out as well as my blog www.NextTimelucky.blogpsot.com.
There's also a gazillion books on the topic, self-help books
and novels. Take a peek at the category of Best Relationship Non-Fiction on
Good reads. 74 books are listed and my book Next
Time Lucky: Lessons of a Matchmaker is #1. The need is there; the audience is
there looking for answers.
That’s why I'm relaunching my book Next Time Lucky: How to Find Your Mr. Right with an added new chapter of
practical dating tips. After all, I was a pro….I’ll be interviewed about my book
again on Thursday between 6.30 – 7.00 P.M/EST by Dr. Tranquility’s on her blog talk
radio show. Listeners and callers are welcome!
I’ll see you on the radio.
