Dating at 50 for men


I needed someone to meet me in height, bulk, and vitality. They were not only shorter, but smaller than me, and I didn’t feel enough energy coming from them. For dates number 3 and 25, I went out with men who were shorter to see if I liked them enough to make shortness matter less. However, I didn’t want a second date with them. (For the upbeat, sexy story of this successful search, see my memoir, Fifty First Dates After Fifty.) Early on, I was casting my net wide. My overall dating plan was to go on first dates with 50 men in order to find a committed partner. Maybe I’m missing someone wonderful! So I made a concerted effort to overcome my bias. When I was dating in my late fifties, I had a bias against shorter men-I had never been attracted to them. I started looking for taller ones.
