Notes
Many couples don't stay together for a lifetime and one of the indicators may be how we entered marriage in the first place.
If we are friends first, it's easier to work through hard times together.
After a marriage ends (for any reason), women often feel as if they've lost themselves (particularly if it was a long-term relationship).
There is a period of reclaiming themselves. The questions to ask a woman in this phase, before she starts a new relationship are:
Once you know what you want and are actively creating that life, then it may be time to venture into dating.
Much of dating now begins online. Cheryl recommends (and helps women)to set up a profile that reflects what you want.
You need to have a vision of what you want, what you don't want, and what you won't settle for.
Women after age 50 often jump into intimacy sooner (since many women in their 50's aren't worried about pregnancy). Online dating (as we currently have due to the lockdowns) is good because it slows down the process. We can get to know them online before we meet in person.
We need to learn to notice and take red flags seriously. We need to develop our intuition and trust ourselves. Sometimes, we need someone with an objective eye to help us.
The goal is to learn to love ourselves so we are ready when love comes along again.
