How to Score a Quality Online Date — Ultimate Guide for Senior Women

It’s easy — I’ve done the research for you

Attention Senior Ladies: After having written six articles* about online dating and spending countless hours scouring dating site profiles, my painstaking research has allowed me to solve your problem of finding a high-quality man on dating sites. I have done all the work for you and devised the ultimate list of what you need to do to find, attract, and keep a loving, kind, intelligent man.

This winning formula is so simple anyone can do it.

In your profile, you must emphasize a particular set of basic traits that will attract his attention and make it irresistible for him to swipe “yes.”

Here are the top 10 traits you need and you’re IN. You should be:

1. Thin — This is the most desired trait in all profiles. Occasionally, an overly generous man may indicate that he will accept a few extra pounds, but thin sells. Thin is in. You can’t weigh more than he can lift when he sweeps you into his arms and carries you to the bedroom for the mind-blowing sex he assures you he can deliver.
2. Healthy — What’s that you say? At age 60+, there are inevitable health issues — artificial knees, bad backs, cancer, diabetes, heart problems — I don’t know anyone who has lived this long who doesn’t have or has had some health issues, but men want you to be healthy. So you have the stamina to take care of them.
3. Wealthy — Men don’t want you near their money. You must own your own home, have your own investments, be debt-free, and be able to pay your way on any of those exciting travel adventures of which they speak that the two of you will embark on together.
4. Beautiful — Haven’t you learned anything in your 60+ years on this planet? No one swipes “yes” for unattractiveness. And the man determines the “attractive criteria.”
5. Well-maintained — Keep those salon appointments. Men want women who get regular manicures, pedicures, and hair colorings. But don’t be high maintenance — that’s a turn-off. No, I don’t know how you can be regularly pedicured, manicured, and coiffed like a show poodle and not be considered high maintenance, but that’s for the two of you to figure out.
6. Athletic — You must be in top physical condition to keep up with his hiking, biking, and scuba diving. Never mind that you’re 70 years old — how do you expect to attract a buff, toned, muscular 70+-year-old man if you’re built like the Pillsbury dough boy? Keep at those pilates, push-ups, pull-ups, and jogging so you can stay in tip-top shape.
7. Well-educated enough to be able to hold a decent conversation. But not too educated. A bachelor’s degree in something innocuous like Liberal Arts is acceptable, but not a Master’s Degree in Engineering or anything that would compete with his advanced education and wide range of diversified careers.
8. Make him your #1 priority — I recently read an excellent Medium article by Vicki Larson about research that demonstrated that men don’t want women who live close to their grandchildren and babysit for them. They want your focus to be on them. They want 100 percent of your attention and do not appreciate women who will be distracted by the needs of their children and grandchildren.
9. A good listener — Listen attentively to his boasts about his career accomplishments, world travel, athletic prowess, charity work, and wealth.
10. Have your own interests and hobbies-–because even though he wants to be your #1 priority and needs you to listen to his problems, bragging, and aspirations, he needs his alone time too. He needs his space. While he’s enjoying some alone time and space, you’ll need to have something else to keep you busy. Refer to #8 — Taking care of grandchildren is not an acceptable hobby. It doesn’t allow for you to be available whenever he beckons. Painting by numbers, maybe?

BONUS POINTS — You get bonus points for being sexually adventurous. No, I won’t go into detail here. Read their profiles. They’ll tell you what they want you to do and what they can do for you, but I don’t write porn, so you can do your own research on that one. Hint: Some men have no filters as to what they say regarding their unique sexual abilities. It makes for interesting reading.

Now, wasn’t that easy? Simply promote those ten traits (and the Bonus if you so desire) in your online dating profile and the man of your dreams will be a “yes” swipe away.

You can thank me anytime for the arduous work I did on your behalf. You’re welcome.
