How to find love without internet dating


Spring is in the air, which means gambolling lambs, magnolia in bloom and a new crop of men and women thinking: "Oh no! Must I start dating again?" and "Oh Lord! How on earth do I meet someone?"

Being thrown in the dating pool when you’re of a certain age (or older) is not a bundle of laughs. But remaining alone after the loss of a partner or a bruising divorce is even worse. So all over the country, people right now are picking themselves up off the floor and having a go. There’s no doubt it takes courage. As Judi Dench, playing widowed pensioner Evelyn Greenslade in The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, says: "The difference between what we want and what we fear is the width of an eyelash."

On the plus side, there are advantages to mid or late life dating. Women who’ve been married and had their kids already are probably less hung up on commitment. Men, in turn, are likely to be moderately house trained. "You know a man who’s been married can probably roast a chicken and replace a washer," says life coach Nina Grunfeld, founder of Life Clubs. "They’re also aware that women are three-dimensional, rather than permanently wearing sexy lingerie."
