Hi Mary Ellen

Check out some professionally written profiles on http://www.e-cyerano.com and http://www.evanmarckatz.com/blog/online-dating-tips-advice/well-written-online-dating-profile-matters/ This team gets great results and even if you don’t want to use there services, you’ll get great ideas from the samples. Professional but natural photos don’t hurt either. Most (good) men over 50 want an attractive woman (and yes many want younger) who is low drama, sexy, happy, and fun. They fear prior bad relationship baggage (yet often have not resolved their own 😉 , needy/clingy, high maintenance, man bashing and lack of appreciation. Of course as we age the available pool of great men is smaller, but don’t lose heart! Get out there and have fun doing things you love that men also love (sporting events, golf, church, local or charity events, and other things relevant to your area). Smile and stay open to conversation without worrying about how you look or getting a date. Watch non-verbals and don’t waste anytime on a man not showing interest or kindness. Best of luck!
