5.You still want the same qualities in a partner that you wanted 20 years ago.
When you used to be 20-something-year-old you probably want to date someone that was good-looking, sexy, smart, funny, romantic, with a full head of hair and a good financial situation. Maybe you even found your Prince Charming but went on separate ways now, and it’s time to start looking again.
However, it’s unrealistic to still look for the same qualities in a partner when you’re in your 40s, especially the hair part. Also, chances are you’re a different person now compared to when you were in your 20s, maybe you’re not so focused on finding a good-looking partner anymore, but rather one that makes you laugh and treat you with respect.
It’s important to ask yourself what you’re looking for in a new partner or what qualities you wish they had. Getting back into the dating scene is definitely more challenging when you’re 40, but it’s a good thing that you have a lot of experience and probably learned your lessons from previous relationships.
In order to attract new people, you need to make sure you know yourself and understand what you’re looking for in a partner.
