Meeting a person to date today is very hard since most people have to work from “can to can’t” to make ends meet. However, you really need to take out time for yourself and enjoy a nice dinner with a wonderful person and see how much better you will feel. Being single today is not fun because most of the time you will have to pay for a dating site or go barhopping, which can be expensive, and sometimes dangerous.

Five ways to meet singles who are over forty without spending any money can be tricky, but they are out there. Below are five suggestions to begin your search for that perfect person.

  1. Barbeques – Everybody loves a good barbeque, but everybody gets tired of the same ole’ crowd. One suggestion is to request each guest to bring a new person with them to the BBQ that no one knows. This way you can meet new people and enjoy hanging out with old friends as well.
  2. Clubbing (Not Bars) – We mean like golf courses. What person does not know where a golf course is located? If you are a woman, this is a great place to meet a well-educated person and you will have at least a 50/50 chance that he is single or is playing golf with someone who is single. What is fun is that when you do not know how to putt or hold the club, you can generally find a guy to show you the ropes. After the game, offer him a drink or coffee for showing you how to play.
  3. If you are a guy, tennis courts are a great place to meet a young lady the tender age of 40. Women love to play this game with friends and sometimes will pair up with guys to play a more challenging game. However, do not forget the jogging course. Men and women love to keep fit and what better place to meet new people than at a park? It’s free, out in public, and plenty of places to just sit and talk.
  4. Do you have a friend that works at a company that has company picnics? Ask if you can tag along. Unless it is strictly company employees, they will not mind bringing you with them. Your friend can introduce you to their friends and so on and so forth. Many people bring friends along to have someone to hang out with.
  5. A less interesting place to meet and greet singles is at conferences. However, conferences can be fun because after the meetings are over many will get together for dinner and chat it up and some will go out for drinks to relax.

No matter what avenue you decide to explore while looking for that special someone, take care and be careful. Make sure you are either with a friend or a group of people. Don’t worry and by all means have fun!

Capture-bookGuest post by Susan Conner, author of the new book Never Marry a Momma’s Boy and 62 other men to avoid like the plague!

Thank you for allowing me to be a guest on your blog-I am very excited to do this!  I have recently written a book titled “Never Marry a Momma’s Boy and 62 other men to avoid like the plague!”   In this book, I have described different types of men that can cause predictable types of issues in a relationship, due to their upbringing, profession, personality, or many other things.

Men can be fascinating creatures, and a lot of fun to be with.  However, if you are one of the many women who want to be married, you deserve all the help you can get in choosing a man who is not going to already come with a predictable problem.

This book sort of “burst” out of me when I saw a lovely young woman engaged to a huge Momma’s boy.  I wanted so badly to tell her not to do it!  I said to a co-worker “Why doesn’t someone tell her “Never marry a momma’s boy” and bam, this book came pouring out!

I hope that you enjoy it-it can be a bit snarky!

If you read this book, please email me your thoughts at susanconner99@gmail.com I would love to hear from you!

Here is the link to my book:  “Never Marry a Momma’s Boy, and 62 other men to avoid like the plague!”
