Probably best to Zoom before a date so you know you are attracted to each other before laying money out for a date. Women might not like that a man would want to split the bill. If you know that you like the woman already via a Zoom session, you won’t feel badly paying for the date.

At age 64 I went to a high school reunion and met the absolute love of my life. I knew him in HS and worshipped him from afar. This time we fell in love, became seenagers, traveling and discovering each other. Sadly he died in my arms of cancer 4 years later (he told me upfront when we met) but oh baby, I don't care, it was all worth it. I never would have known him or seen myself in deep love like I was. I stopped being strong, let him protect and nurture me, then we switched, and it felt truly wonderful.

I think a first date could be more about going for a walk in the park and getting a coffee which would only last for approximately an hour! This is the initial meet up and the reason is to determine if you do have enough in common plus enough attraction for a dinner date.

I lost my mate almost 4 years ago to Alz. He was 68. I am now 71 and have been alone since, especially due to Covid and feel isolated also. I had to put my 18-year-old cat down about 6 months later which made it even harder! I went back to my Artwork about a year after he passed and turned his sitting room into an Art Room!! I have been asked out over this period of time a few times, but I decided I didn't want to "deal" with it all and stayed alone. I didn't even get another cat. I'm at a stage now where I feel I'm getting older and need to focus on all the things I didn't over the years while taking care of kids, family etc! I guess it all boils down to how much you can like yourself and be with yourself. I journal, embroider, paint and resin so I am very busy. Then there are family gatherings that take your time to Cook, donate help, gift shopping, etc. So, dating out of loneliness can lead to more issues in your life. Let it all happen natural and if it doesn't, learn how to make yourself happy!!

I feel the same way. you communicated this very well. I'm 72 and still get asked out (and to my surprise, a few from much younger men-which makes no sense to me honestly). My marriage of 22 years would have made hell look like a nice place to visit, I was also a victim of a violent crime, which left me with severe ptsd. So, basically I've come to realize knowing a true love will never happen for me, sadly. However, I've learned to think in the lines of what your comment so beautifully lays out. It was an awe moment to read it.😊

As card carrying adults 'over 50' follow the advice you would offer a young person. Meet them somewhere informal, where you don't have to spend more than a couple of hours with them, not everyone is as the picture on their profile, sound of their voice. Don't make a first meet one where you have to spend an evening discovering he / she can't use a knife and fork, talks with a full mouth of food, smells bad, has halitosis, bad habits that don't do it for you.... and spends all their time on their mobile. etc. Differentiate a 1st meet up from a 1st date.

Better yet. My first connection is by phone. In that way at least you aren’t on a first meet up knowing instantly that you shouldn’t have met this person. You know, you can get a sense pretty quickly! Amazing what you sense in hearing a person, their tone, attitudes, likes, dislikes and how that is verbalized, their interest in life and maybe in you from say a dating Ap profile (both). If your gut says yes proceed and you both agree then do so. I find the meals can come later. A coffee date to start is fine. Better yet go for a walk. In that way you aren’t facing each other the whole meetup but are walking side by side and sharing. One of my best fun first meets was with a woman whom like me played baseball in her younger days. We met up to “ play catch c a ball!” How refreshing, fun and different. We are still friends to this day. Actually she is my travel agent. Lastly go into each meetup or phone call- with “no expectations!” Then evaluate some time later and go from there. Go Ni .

Im a man 55 who has historically dated women 10 years older for the reasons of better maturity/thinking matches (bigger world view). I divorced 2 years ago and decided to start dating again. What i have found is a general lowering of standards for both men and women when it comes to how we think about our place in the world. Everyone seems to full of complexity, yet no one has any human skill sets like, integrity, sincerity, thoughtfulness, having a long view, etc. It seems like the simple things and courtesies have fallen by the wayside. Im not that old, yet im thinking the kind of women im interested in have long since decided to stop dating. She probably saw the same things i am seeing and gave up. As for me, im still trying to sort out the highly put together people who turn out to have no depth. Is that todays standard?

@@OurTube_TheOriginal not referring to "looking like". That would be equally shallow. Lived experience, quality time spent in intimate conversations where individuals admit they have not really given much time to some of life's tough questions. How do you have fulfilling conversations when people are so far apart in their mentality after 55? I wish others well, but many of us want to be able to have deeper conversations and ponder deeper meanings about any subject. This is what makes life interesting for some of us after a certain age/stage of life. Most of us in this situation, find ourselves accepting where society's standards currently lean and sit out. We enjoy our hobbies and don't disrespect anyone else's path. It's okay to have different mentalities towards aging. To me depth in thinking is vital to aging well. I want that around me. I want my thinking challenged with observations that make me curious. I want to be thrilled to experience my partners mind and personality. We all lean in different directions, and it's not healthy to pretend otherwise. Most of us don't have another 50 years to struggle with adopting to big differences. We are not talking about acts of chivalry based on patriarchy. Your example is the mindset of no depth. I would have advised you to move on from anyone who thinks opening a door is actually a courtesy, the simplicity of thinking that's a courtesy is the low bar that defines a lack of "depth". That man never thought about it after he heard about opening doors for women. Man or women, you are helping to make the point perhaps inadvertently.

At age 69 I’ve dated on and off the last 10 years since a divorce. On the first date I tell the guy it is a “Meet and Greet” and I will pay my way. More than once the gentleman demanded to pay. I agreed if he’d allow me to leave the tip. Usually we agreed. On the first encounter I do notice his wardrobe, condition of his shoes, the cleanliness of his vehicle, especially the floorboards. If he has to move things so I can get in or sit , his house and life probably looks the same. I want someone that is neat and clean.

Girls want sparkly fairytales. Emotionally mature women (of any age) want real friendship and passion. The single flower you give me later because you know me and think I'm special, is worth much more than two dozen on the first date. Those dozens are more about impressing me or buying my interest. The guy making all the grand gestures from day one before he even knows me, is doing it for himself. It's not about me. And he's done it for all of his other first dates. I'll take a guy who greets the wait staff with a warm smile and good eye contact, or pets a passing dog, over one that shows up to the coffee shop roses in hand. Impress me with who you are, not grand gestures to sweep me off my feet. Who you are won't change. Grand gestures never last. That's why fairytales are short.

I’m all for the coffee date first. No big expense. Whoever initiated the meetup should be able to flip for coffee. And with nothing else in the way (like a meal) it’s just time to talk and get to know a bit about each other. Do you have anything in common and would you like to spend more time with this person, to get to know more about them? Was it comfortable chatting with them? Did you have similar sense of humor? We’re you physically attracted? How does he see a woman’s place? I am the woman who enjoys a mans help with things, I respect a man who has a good work ethic, whether that means he’s still working or retired and taking care of his property. I like the man to take care of the vehicles and I’ll take care of the home. And I love a man who enjoys manning the grill 😊. I enjoy flirting with my guy. Winking across the room, kisses here and there, that hug from behind when I’m doing dishes, just those gestures that show love. As you can see, even after having to become strong by being single, I’m no feminist.

In reflection I have always believed that you treat a woman like a precious object, until they show you that they are not. Eventually I found my special partner (now wife) she was 50, I was 56. We are now marries 13 years and the greatest compliment she ever gave me was “ should you ever pass, I will never marry again because no one can ever treat me as well as you do.

Spent first Christmas alone in my 50's. I was so lonely I was happy if there was a fly in my apartment, something else alive. I know sounds silly, but that type of loniless is very painful. Now 20 years later, I've grown, own my own little condo, and did it all without a man, well, my brother in law did lend me money to buy it, but I paid it off quickly, not wanting to be beholding to anyone. Alone now, but not lonely. A nice platonic companion would be nice though,, a coffee together or a drive, movie etc.oh well, sorry tor long comment.😊

Split the check. Everyone has to eat, but not everyone you are going to continue to date. When you KNOW to whom you are dedicating, follow through with the investment. Expect courtesy & don’t fight over capability. If he opens the doors for you, let him. Keep your eyes open for someone who fights over some courtesy as if his capability is in question. He likely has low self-esteem. He is there to compete with you, not to cooperate with you. Key: Likely he won’t be a door opener, either.

Some people "date" for sport. The online thing can turn into a veritable hobby, for some. That's not my thing, so I'd first change the terminology. It's a MEET, not a DATE. Since I always pay for my own coffee or whatever when going out, that's what feels best (to me) on a meet--with men and women both. I'd like you guys to address the issue of reacting to seeing one another in person for the first time, though. First meets between seemingly compatible people online can be devastating if someone expresses disappointment (eye rolling, etc) right off the bat. If this happens to you, I would not bother staying. Note: I stopped dating because male behavior was ridiculously abusive. Not all 70 year-olds look like Raquel Welch or Jane Fonda!

He used that money to buy the next chick's salad. Men are out here paying women $1 per text message just to chat and you feel guilty for allowing him to buy you a tuna sandwich. Smh your generation is the reason why men date younger women. Young women let the old man buy her salad then she shows the APPRECIATION that he craves. Also, since you are pseudo-masculine and want to compete for who can pay for the bacon it is easier for him to just get someone younger and broker who he can impress. I know yall did not see one another very much after that. He didn't see you as the prize because you didn't act like it.

A lot of good perspectives, valuable insights, information, and ideas. With respect to the question of just who pays for the first date, it hardly seems a valid question for anyone over the age of fifty. The idea of splitting the cost is clearly that of the much younger generation, and certainly not appropriate (in general) for those of us that truly are "seniors". As a gentleman, it goes against my grain to NOT pick up the cost. Now my main problem is that I have been unable to locate any nice ladies with whom I would like to engage in intelligent conversation. I will not look in bars or other places that simply have failed me in the past. I have tried libraries, book stores, the post office, grocery stores, laundromats, Walmarts, pharmacies, etc.. Ladies, am I looking in the wrong locations ?? I humbly ask for your guidance on the subject of where may I find you ? Please note that I am not suggesting that you will find me appropriate for your own individual requirements, but perhaps one of you will. Thank You.

I know in Covid-time things are different but if you are in that situation don't be afraid to make eye contact and if the lady smiles just ask if you can join her. I would love for restaurants to have a table set aside for people who would like to share a table, and if it could be part of the 'open table' booking system so you could see if there were others booked before you go, it would be fun!

And then there are women exactly like that , like me, for instance, who will always make room for real love. Even at age 71. I have kids, grandkids, and great- grandkids, and my mother is alive and pretty well at age 96. If I got the good genes, and live that long( dad died at age 93), I look forward to having a loving partner for the last quarter of my life. Interestingly enough, my significant other spoils me, and I have never been spoiled before. Being a nurse for 50 years, now it is MY time. We do not live together, but he only lives about 4 miles away. The best of both worlds.

Pretty sure my past comment was deleted, but I’ll don’t necessarily want to be “swept off my feet” but I want to be treated like I’m special, not just going out with a friend. If we split the check, it’s like I’m looking for a roommate and I’m not. I’m looking for someone who treats me more special then a “friend”. Might as well just go out with girlfriends and skip all the hassles of dating.

I think older women should seek companionship with women instead of men. Woman naturally are communal and can be happier being free, engaging with pets, and having close female friendships. As we age we need peace and freedom. We don’t need to be focused on anyone but ourselves. We spend our entire lives taking care of others, sacrificing, not able to pursue dreams because of children and being a wife so after 50 this time is for us.

Good interview, both Lisa and Ken raised some very different but good points. For me, Ken provided better guidance. I think that most guys are not dating hoping to find a woman that they can be friends with. At this age, the first time I meet someone new I'm really interested in whether we can enjoy each others company. Do we have similar senses of humor. Are we intellectually compatible. Is our need for intimacy similar. I always ask for separate checks from the wait staff so there is no awkwardness afterwards. If we hit it off and he asks me out on a date, I do expect him to pay.

Disagree with Ken, if we're splitting a check on the first date, then it not a date... It's having a meeting or get together with a friend... "My feeling" That sense of masculinity just went out the door. If paying for a first date (money) is an issue, be creative and think of places to be that are within your comfort zone etc.. dunkin donut and a coffee... a Krispy Kreme donut in the park...window shopping at the flea market etc..

Hello, so interesting to listen to all your opinions, Im 74 and lost my husband a year ago, I have 4 male friends, I still don't want to have a loving relationship, one of these friends would like to be more serious. We have gone to concerts, lunch, Art gallery and we decided to split the bill because he brought it up but I would rather have the friend pay for our meal. I find it rather disturbing to bring this up when you would like to feel invited out and not split the bill. On top of that I invited him to the Art Gallery. We are old school at my age and that is what was done, although I am very independent and I am not looking for a date, it is nice to be invited out. Thank you for all your advice and opinions, Interesting to hear.

I get the man's point that the purpose of a first date is just to get to know someone - one of many they would invite out. In that case I would be quite happy to split the bill (or pay my part, which is what we normally do among friends). That way there's no sense of obligation. I would much prefer a first date to be a walk, perhaps with an ice cream or other little snack en route.

She’s right! I’m an independent professional - splitting first date is fine - BUT - disagree with me if you will , but women have been ‘disadvantaged’ in many ways throughout history - financially and otherwise. As a heterosexual woman I for myself realize that strong attraction STILL comes when a man shows the ability to ‘protect and help’ whether it be at least a show of some financial willingness, a bit of an ‘I am able to take charge’ behavior. I’ve dated many of the ‘other’ - and I am soon put off by my feeling that I have to continue to be ‘the one who takes care of everything.’ I agree with her!

I think if you met someone online and wanted to meet in person, it should be agreed to go somewhere simple and each person pay their own check. But if a man I met in person asked me out on a date, he should pay the check. But it should still be somewhere simple and not expensive on the first date if it’s just so you can get to know someone. If it’s someone you seen several times, like at work, church, or something similar, if the guy asks you out, they should pay. It still doesn’t have to be fancy but something more casual like Applebees, a steakhouse etc. not a coffee shop.

If a man asks me out on a date, he pays. If he asks me to split the check, I will do so nicely and without any reluctance. He won't be getting a 2nd date though, nor will he need to walk me to my car. Manners are manners and if he doesn't have any at this age, I'm not up to teaching them to him. Same goes if later on after the initial dates, I invite him to dinner. I do the inviting, I will take care of everything! But not before he's shown that he's on par with me first.
