5 Mistakes People Make When Dating Casually (And What to Do Instead)

Image
If you’re dating casually because you’re not ready for a relationship, that’s okay. But be careful not to make these 5 mistakes. Casual dating gets a bad reputation in the over 50 crowd. Some of my clients tell me they feel guilty even using the word casual, like it means they aren’t serious about finding love. But here’s the truth: dating casually, when you do it well, is one of the healthiest ways to find your person. It takes the pressure off. It lets you actually get to know someone instead of rushing to decide if they’re “the one” by date two. The problem isn’t casual dating itself. It’s the mistakes people make while they’re doing it. I see the same five patterns over and over in my coaching practice, so let’s talk through them. Mistake #1: Skipping the safety conversation When dating feels light and low stakes, it’s easy to let your guard down in ways that aren...

A client told me she met a man at a dinner party who made her stomach flip the minute he walked in. And then, a few minutes later, she felt scared. Because the last three times she felt those instant sparks, the relationship ended in heartbreak. She asked me, “How do I know if this is real chemistry or just my old wiring again?” It’s one of the questions I hear most from women in my coaching practice.

How to Define Your Needs in Dating: 5 Ways to Stop Guessing and Start Choosing Right

Image
If you don’t define your needs in dating, you’ll end up in relationships that don’t work. Here are five ways to define your needs so you can finally meet your match. I talk to daters every week who are frustrated, confused, and exhausted, and when I dig into what’s really going on, it almost always comes back to the same thing. They’ve never sat down and figured out what they actually need in a partner. Without that clarity, dating turns into guesswork. You swipe through profiles with no real sense of what you’re hoping to find. You go on a date and walk away unsure if you should go on another date. You start to wonder if you’re being too picky, or if wanting certain things makes you high maintenance. And when someone promising comes along, you have no idea how to even bring up what matters most to you. I know this firsthand. I spent years in relationships that felt slightly off, and it took me way too long to understand why...
