When I was 23, my friend taught me one of life's greatest lessons: Older women make decisions fast. It was this that led to my first experience with an older woman.

Let me be the first to admit that I had a “dating type” for most of my adult life. The fact is most of you reading this will say you have some kind of type (i.e., tall, dark and handsome). Looking for a partner who has qualities you want is not terrible, but relying on your type to guide you in your dating life is problematic.

While it seems the whole world is swiping right and left on Tinder or finding love on Match.com and eHarmony, believe it or not, every day singles come to me to tell me they’re going to try online dating for the first time. Nine times out of 10, they are nervous and hesitant about the whole thing. From thinking they’ll only meet creepy guys, ones who want to hook up, to wondering how much they’ll really weigh, some...

Too often we have the thought, "I wish old-fashioned dating still existed." It's sad that the modern-day dating world has evolved into a cyberspace platform of emojis, sexting and passive aggressive tweets, although the growth of technology alone cannot explain the transformation of our romantic lives.

Rejection and online dating. Those are two terms that are pretty much synonymous. I have been the culprit in rejecting many online dates.
