happy couple over 50Sometimes it feels like there’s no one out there to date.  Know what I mean?

Of course, you do.  Every woman feels this way at one time or another.

In today’s blog, I’m going to share 11 types of men that are out there to date.

Some are keepers. Some are not.

Either way, this list will help you see who the perfect man is for you.

Type #1-The Bad Boy

He’s a favorite because he’s gorgeous, charming and knows how to make you feel amazing.

But he’s also a major player who will break your heart.

Fun to play with, but not good for long-term relationships.

Type #2-The Needy Man

While you’re in the emailing process, he’s already thinking of you as his girlfriend calling you honey or my girl.

He wants to talk on the phone or constantly text.  If you love a good project, he’s perfect for you.

Type #3-The Motorcycle Dude

Lots of good men ride motorcycles like doctors, lawyers, and well-paid businessmen.

Don’t knock him out just for having this midlife hobby.

As long as he doesn’t expect you to ride (unless you want to), he’s got potential.

Type #4-Beware of the Ring on His Finger

This man rarely posts a picture.

He doesn’t want his wife’s single friends telling her that he’s on a dating site.

You can really get hurt by this guy because no matter what he says about his marriage, he isn’t leaving his wife or he would have already.

Type #5-The Long Distance Romantic

If you love fantasy, this is the perfect romantic relationship.

You spend hours on the phone sharing your deepest secrets.

Problem is . . . the phone chemistry doesn’t always match up when you meet.

Yet, I have seen this type of relationship work if you live within a 2-hour drive of each other.

It’s a great match if you like weekend-only relationships.

Type #6-What He Really Needs Is A Shrink Not a Date

He’s looking for a therapist and you’re it.

Steer clear.

Unless you’re being paid money by the hour to listen to his woes, you’re better off finding a man who’s emotionally healthier.

Type #7-The Take Out Order Man

Some of the funniest profiles are written by men who think Online Dating is like going through the Wendy’s drive-through window.

They’re looking for specific qualities in women like body type, hair color, or a precise type of job.

In the long run, you’ll be a lot happier with a man who thinks you’re great exactly how you are!

Type #8-The Scammer

Scary group because they can scam you out of thousands of dollars by quickly capturing your heart.

These men have amazing pictures and they know you will feel blessed that such a handsome guy chose you.

If a guy continually makes excuses for not being able to meet you, chances are he’s a scammer.  Let him go!

Type #9-Younger Men Online Looking for Cougars

Shocking at times but yes, there are younger men out there who are into older women.

It’s a great boost for the ego.

Go for it if you want.

Just beware of men who are looking for a Sugar Mama to support them!

Type #10-The Older Man

These are ‘Old School Gentlemen’ who will treat you like a lady.

They can be a lot of fun.

Worth giving this one a chance.

Type #11-The “Quality Man”

He may not be the most handsome man online but he is the nicest and he will do anything for you.

He’s the man who’s interested in what you’re doing and wants to make you happy.

“Quality Men” who want nothing more than an opportunity to love you can be found online and in the real world.

Have fun with this one!

He can bring you a lifetime of happiness and joy.

Remember to mark your calendar for this Sunday from 4-5:30 p.m. ET/1-2:30 p.m. PT. And watch your inbox on Friday for details on how you can join this fun Happy Hour Valentine’s Day Event. 

Would love to know which of those men you’ve dated and how it worked out for you.

Believing in You!

  1. I am a man and saw this list made me laugh a little. I guess I see a lot of this with women too. Have you read all the profiles on websites. I noticed that all the women want 3 top main things. Honesty (do all men lie???), have a humour (comedian level?) and are good at conversations. Yes other things too. So the minute I try to talk to ladies online I get ghosted. Yet those who actually spend time to read my profile find me humorous. Then we talk and that is it.

    Do you and the ladies think that it is a little unreasonable for these top qualities must be met. According to some doctors well known in the field of dating and relationships we should just give it a chance. I am not sure this list helps that search.

    ONE lady and only one in my area (and there more then one in my area) gave me a chance to talk to her and we talk almost every 2 or 3 days. She is very involved with 8 or more other men also but she finds me somewhat interesting she said. Maybe she is trying to be nice but we keep talking. If only others would give each other a chance. I could say that bout my ex wife too lol.

    What are your thoughts ?

  2. I want to thank you for your book. It motivated me to try again and I am now dating a quality man.
