dating help: I’m 45 and have just started to date after a divorce 2 years ago. - Help.com

In England we have nice hotels where you are allowed to go in and spent time in the bar part of the hotel, its a nice relaxing atmosphere, and you can sit and relax and chat even if you don’t have a room or are staying there. Im not sure if its the same here or not. May pay to find out though.

Well I suppose a beach would work, people of just about any age can go out on a date there, but it only works good if its not a busy day there.

I suppose theres also art galleries, basically you spend all your time talking to eachother doing something like that, even if you dont like art you can still make fun of it although you being 45 you got to be careful how you joke or it might make you come off a bit immature or jerky.

Also you could always ask who your dating what they might enjoy doing and maybe suggest them to say something they have never done before.

Go to a coffee shop and just sit and chat, go downtown and stroll the shoppes or go to a beach and take a walk, there’s nothing like a quiet walk and some silly chatter to learn about each other and have a good laugh at the same time. Don’t opt to be entertained, entertain yourself and live a little

Ask her is she likes paintiing or photography. Ask what music she likes, or which places she has travelled to. Ask he favorite food. cook for her. most women have to cook for themselves and kids all the time. it might be a nice change from the routine. Try rock climbing at the gym, or swimming, or tole painting, or painting a room. Ask for her decorating ideas, then do them together.

but first learn to cook or that would go bad hahaha, but then again a bad cooking experience could be a good social one that might make you bond over laughing on how horrible you are at it but that you were nice enough to try =)

BWAHAHA! Good point! Take a cooking class with her. They have them here sometimes through the grocery store. (like every third tuesday night, or something)

baking can turn messy, then the clean up can get naughty…..speaking of that, time to run and find my guy. If it goes well, I’ll be back on in the morning. If not, then in ten minutes, LOL.
