Gratitude

Before proceeding on with exciting, useful information for daters in their sixties, I am taking this opportunity to extend gratitude to the incredible young people in my life.

My dedication is to my son Shane and my daughter Tiffany. Without their on-going love and support, I would not have had the tenacity and fortitude to create and write this book.

When I think of all the craziness I have experienced in my sixty plus years of life, I always fall back onto the love and gratefulness I have for my family!

I have married more than once and dated in excess of one hundred and fifty men since turning sixty. It has been my personal experience, as a senior dating in her sixties, that created the premise for Six Sexy, Simple Steps for Dating at Sixty.

Of all my accomplishments, my children are my greatest. They have always shown love without judgment. Without a doubt, there were times that judgment should have prevailed.

Shane and Tiffany, thank you both for always letting me be just me – right, wrong or indifferent. I love you both from the bottom of my heart!

Preface

Six Sexy, Simple Steps for Dating at Sixty is intended to be a quick, easy read. It is dedicated to all the loving, single seniors who are ready to reinvent themselves in the dating world.

We are the Sexagenarians. We are a great generation with knowledge and understanding.

We continue to make a difference in this world and we are courageous in living our lives with richness and joy.

Spiritual treatments and excerpts from individuals I have come to respect are presented throughout the book.

If you are frightened to get out there again and date at age sixty or beyond, dispel your fear of fright right now. Remember the cliché: The only thing to fear is fear itself.

Know that you are safe even when you may be vulnerable. Embrace new experiences both positive and negative. These are life’s lessons.

It’s time to begin living life to its fullest! It’s time to break old habits. It’s time to create the wonderful dating experiences you desire and deserve.

Please feel free to visit my website: www.stepstodatingat60.love. Let’s blog and continue our conversation. It’s an on-going process.

The book and blog will give you the tools and confidence you desire to begin your adventure. Enjoy. I wish you only the best!
