A Simple Tip for Boosting Your Dating Confidence after 50

Portrait of a smiling middle aged brunette relaxing on couchI remember how it was when I first started dating.

Before every date, I’d go crazy worrying whether or not a man would like me.

It was unbelievably stressful.

I was forgetting how amazing I was.

Even worse, I was giving my power away to what someone I didn’t even know might think of me.

It’s easy to do, especially when you read men’s profiles that say things like . . .  “I want a professional woman who is petite and thin with blonde hair.”

You read something like this . . . then you look in the mirror and start assessing yourself.

You’re body is curvy but things have shifted, courtesy of menopause.

You have a great job but aren’t sure it’s what this guy would want and your hair is brown . . . but you could add blonde highlights if that’s what he’d like.

If you read enough men’s profiles where men start describing specific types of women they are looking for, you can start feeling like you just aren’t enough.

Even reading women’s magazines can make you feel less than about yourself.

But I’m here to tell you that you are not less than.

YOU ARE AWESOME!

You’ve just forgotten and I want to see you bring your greatness back to you.

Yesterday, while I was walking my dog, Levi, I heard a recording of a poem I want to share with you that can change how you feel about you.

I feel pretty good about myself, yet even I got really teary hearing it.

Why?  Because it’s so easy to forget how AMAZING you really are and today I want to remind you what a special woman you are. 

I hope you enjoy it . . .

Who Are YOU?

You are…. WOMAN

You are…Beautiful

You are…. Powerful

You are…Sensitive

You are…Loving

You are a unique GEM

You are worthy of LOVE and AFFECTION

You are . . . never too much and you are always ENOUGH!

You are . . . AMAZING!

Just the way you ARE

You are . . . the most stunning of all God’s creations

You are . . . worth more than you could ever imagine

You ARE . . . Worth more than the number on the scale, the size of your jeans, more than the price tags on your clothes or the shoes you wear.

YOU are . . . Worth more than the amount in your bank account, or the car you drive, or even the number of friends you have on social media.

Your WORTH surpasses ALL things on this planet and beyond Because in the eyes of your creator YOU ARE LOVED!

Remember today and every day.

You are . . . perfect and whole exactly the way you are.

You are . . .WOMAN

You are . . . Beautiful

You are . . . Powerful

You are . . .Sensitive

And You are . . .LOVED!

Poem by Mary Morrisey and Jennifer Jimenez

If this poem resonates with you, I hope you’ll pass it along to the women you treasure in your life to remind them how special they are too.  

And while you’re at it . . . read it to yourself in Voice Memo and play it back when you’re walking or driving or just relaxing or when you’ve had a bad date or a bad day.

It will help you remember you are TRULY AWESOME JUST THE WAY YOU ARE!

Believing in You!
