Dating Over 40. Where The Heck Do I Meet Women?

Dating Tips for Men

Your dating over 40. The bar scene is getting a bit dicey. Increase your odds! The more social you are the better your odds of meeting women, plain and simple. Look at women, say "hi" while you're grocery shopping or standing in the coffee line.

Keep your head up, walk confidently and leave your sweats at home. Girls are less intimidated in their everyday lives than at clubs. I always meet women at my gym, for instance, women see me often which makes them comfortable and more approachable.

Charities
Dating over 40?  Go to Charities! Charities are great, there are always more women than guys. Also, by being at a charity, women think you are a caring individual, even if you don’t give a rat’s ass about abandoned cats.


Facebook
Even when you're home you can be socializing and lining up a date. You'll be amazed at how many of your ex-girlfriends in high school and college are now single. Stay in touch even if you're not interested, they have single friends that you haven't met.

If you can't find that ex-flame use an email address finder. I use Email Addresses Search  to find an ex chick's email. It works great and it covers all states.

Church
Church rocks! I meet lots of girls at church. Try it, you'll bump into lots of sweet foxy women. You can most definitely pick up girls at church.

Hit on the help
I do it all the time and it works. Patronize as many places as often as you can. Coffee shops, local bars, clothing stores. These places are great to meet women. They have to serve you so they have to engage with you, it makes the whole process easier. I dated this nice girl at Dunkin Donuts, free coffee!
Bartenders are my favorite subjects. You get to know them on slow nights, hear all about their boyfriend woe's and before you know it, you're banging a hot bartender chick.

Wine Tasting
What's the normal guy to girl ratio in life? 2 to 1? 3 to 1? Or do I dare say 4 to 1? which is a total cock rub. Go to wine tasting event. It rocks! They are in all major cities and towns and many more women attend than men. These chicks are sophisticated (until they get drunk) and are fun. Wine tasting events are great for men dating over 40.

Try Something New
Another dating over 40 tip for men is to get out and try something new. Guys can find older women by simply attending some type of activity, maybe at the Y or a dance class.

A computer course at a local college is something I did and I made some great friends.
A beginners or novice course means that everyone will be on the same level as you, which makes for interesting conversation. Engage people in these conversations, who knows?, many may be single.

In Conclusion
There are so many places to meet women when you are dating over 40. Church, charities, wine tasting and Facebook are venues other than the usual clubs and bars. The key is to get out and get in the game. Realize that there are thousands of people, just like you who are single, and ready to meet!

How to be Less Shy In 5 Easy Steps

How to be Less Shy in 5 Easy Steps
How to overcome shyness is a common problem. You are not alone. I suffered from shyness and I know it can be quite painful. It's tough for the shy person because you have already been labeled as "a shy person". Once people label you as shy it's difficult to break.
You yourself have to realize the need to overcome shyness. This fear holds you back in life. Work promotions and relationships suffer. There are 5 steps for overcoming shyness. These steps all revolve around building self confidence.
How to be less shy is a series of 5 baby steps:
• Realize why you need to change
• Tell a close friend to help you amongst social groups
• Lose the people that will not support you
• Practice everyday engaging in longer conversations
• seek professional help in extreme cases
Baby Steps
Obviously you are not going to start by making a public speech. No, take baby steps. Make a list of small challenges first. Tell yourself you are going to speak up more. Choose a close friend that you know will not judge you and SPEAK UP with them. This friend will be surprised at your confidence and this is good, except it.
Tell your friend you need their support. Ask him or her to help you overcome your shyness by allowing you to participate in conversations with a group. This can be done by your friend asking you a question. This makes you the center of attention for a brief minute.
By taking the questions and expanding more and more with answers, smiles and soon to be conversations, you will find you will start to overcome your shyness. This is how I did it and it worked. Challenge your fear step by step.
If you encounter people that criticize you for coming out of your shyness than do not hang out with them. Realize they are not your friend if they want you to shut up and be a mute. Don't hang out with people that will not support you in your quest to overcome shyness.
Another step to for overcoming shyness is pick a friend that is quiet also. Now, be the loud mouth amongst you, it's fun and it empowers you. My problem of overcoming shyness was that I hung out with so many extroverts. I couldn't get a word in!
If you are extremely shy seek professional help first. It's ok. I needed it and it helped. Just a few sessions with someone that will not judge you helps overcoming shyness tremendously. It allows you to gain a "foot hold" on the problem.
