Be honest, talk straight
In a recent report on the Expiry Date of Love the authors found that older daters tend to drop the game-playing so favoured by younger dates, opting instead to wear their hearts on their sleeve. “[Older daters] want to make a decision quickly and cut their losses, because they have learned life is too short for dating games”, says Watson.1 It’s not surprising, then, that the success rate in the older dating category is strong; clear relationship aims and honest, outcomes-based communication increases the efficiency of dating in general.

Search in the right place
You may be wondering; where are these hoards of older singles? A report printed in the Harvard Magazine called The Mature Dating Game puts it bluntly; ‘Most of your friends are already married and get together for dinner parties in the suburbs with other couples, and those still at the peak of their careers (ages 45 to 65) tend to be more isolated because they are bosses in a corner office, or work from home.’2 Of course, retired singles tend to have cemented social circles, which acts as yet another barrier to social fluidity. It’s for this reason that online dating stands as the most effective way to start a new relationship.
