Advice on Senior Dating: Starting Over

If you're a senior who is just reentering the dating scene, you may be wondering: What are people doing now on dates? Will I be able (and willing) to keep up? While dating has changed over the years, the basic rules are still the same. The first date is still a get-to-know-you proposition. Keep it simple and casual. Plan it around lunch -- a lower pressure meal -- or a fun activity. Either will give you time to talk and get to know each other better. If the idea of that first date still makes you nervous, consider going with another couple or within a group.
