"I'm Back in the Dating Game and Feeling Fabulous!"

"Dear Paige,

I have been widowed for 7 years and am definitely ready to get back into dating. Wishing to "do it right this time", I am taking your suggestions.

When I downloaded "Dating Without Drama", I thought, "Oh well...just another 'feel good book'...yawn!" Boy, oh boy, was I wrong! I saw just how much footwork I needed to do.

Now.......Get this: I am slightly over 60, still look very good, keep myself up, am loads of fun, and have many friends. What you stated in your book, "Dating Without Drama" really struck a chord with me. I found I was needy & was from the old school of thought, "Please my man!" Wrong again! It was time to be good to myself, stay busy, go places, have more fun, smile, put my shoulders back, act confident, be somewhat mysterious, not act needy, and be available for new adventures, new people, new ways of "mothering" myself.

I now take long walks in my neighborhood park, walking confidently and self-assured. My little dog loves it, and he's a magnet for men to stop to chat!

Today, I am my authentic self. I have nothing to hide. I finally began working out, lifting weights, dancing to music I love, and eating healthy... not to mention my looking better & feeling more desirable. After all, men are such visual creatures. Really....aren't we all?

I no longer feel I must "settle" for a man I don't find totally acceptable. Even made my "Vision Board", my "Wish List" of Must-Haves, and posted it on my home office wall, right above my computer screen, where I see it and meditate on it each day. After all, I know I am a PRIZE.

I own my own business, have lovely home, many friends, a great family, new adventures, stay busy, and don't wait for "him" to call or email.

I've even shared lots of your "Dishes" with all the wonderful younger women whom I mentor. Life is good. I am complete within my very own self. There is no doubt in my mind and in my heart that "He" will come into my life soon. I'll keep you posted.

Thanks a million for your advice!!!
