BLURB:
The world
of dating can be both brutal and mysterious. Why do some people marry the first
person they meet and live happily ever after? While the rest of us suffer
failed relationships, unexpected divorces, and even the death of a spouse that
pushes us back into singlehood. Being single can be especially challenging
after forty. Most people could use some help, which is the reason behind the
book.
Dating after Forty-eight is a collection of well-read blogs that highlights workable dating strategies. Instead of dating being a trial, turn it into a fun adventure and possibly a happy ever after.

Excerpt:
The Confidence Game
The first step to dating like a Bond character is
self-confidence. Act as if you are the most beautiful person in the room.
Anyone should be glad to know you. If they aren’t anxious to meet you, then
that’s their loss. I know some of you are shaking your heads, thinking that you
could never pull this off. I did say ACT. That’s the secret. Fake it until you
make it. Why act self-confident if you’re not feeling it?
Neediness is the opposite of confidence and drives men and
women away. A woman lacking self-confidence telegraphs desperation. She feels
like she can never land a man, so she dates anyone who asks her out. Then she
usually sleeps with the guy on the first date since that is all she thinks she
has to offer. She immediately begins to text, email, and call. Maybe she buys
him gifts and drops them off at his work or home. No wonder the guy runs off
screaming, which confirms her belief that she has nothing to offer. A worse
scenario is the guy hangs around and uses the woman. He keeps her in place by insulting
her, making her think she can’t do better.
