First Golden Bachelor Review & Update on My Dating…

First Golden Bachelor Review & Update on My Dating Adventures

With all that is going on in the world right now I was second guessing whether doing an episode on dating and all the comedic aspects of the process is somehow disrespectful or tone deaf.

However, as I thought about it a bit more, I remembered that we can feel sad, we can feel scared, and we can feel joy and still laugh. 

So, this episode is what the title says! My first Golden Bachelor review with some of my thoughts and observations. Then, I have an update for you on a few of the experiences I have had thus far in the dating pond, and the frogs in said pond who I absolutely did not kiss!

If you could use a fun distraction, I hope you’ll join me! And if you know someone who would enjoy this, or any episode, please share!

 

Thank you so much for listening! And until the next time, live passionately, vulnerably, and keep loving later life!

The (Scary) Bad Date, Some Outrageous Comments, The Disappointing…

The (Scary) Bad Date, Some Outrageous Comments, The Disappointing Fix-Up, and a Couple of the Good Ones

Hello and welcome to Loving Later Life! I am Nancy Lang Gibbs your host, and this month I’m sharing some of my crazy ass dates and relationships. Last week was one of the more intense sagas, so this week, instead of the super soapy saga I was going to share, (I’ll save it for another time) I thought I’d share one that had some very funny moments before it became scary.

After that, I have some one-liners from dates and almost dates that were so awful and absurd I had to write them down. Then a quick story of one that was actually a fix-up that turned sour, and lastly, to close out the episode and the month on a more positive note, I share about a couple of the good guys, even though they didn’t work out.

And I want to say again, I’m sharing these because we all have stories and there are numerous benefits of sharing our stories for the storyteller and the listener.

In fact, I invite you to please record a voice memo, or write a story of yours and send it to me so I can share it. And if you’d like to be a guest on LLL, let me know so we can discuss that possibility.

Not be missed take-ways:

For these stories, the take-away’s I believe are similar. Trust yourself. That gut feeling, that whisper of a voice inside you. Trust it over others. If you feel uncomfortable in a situation, leave. If you are being treated badly whether it’s emotionally, verbally, or physically; get out. Just get out. You will figure it out from there. Things will work out, just get out.

And your mission, that I hope you’ll choose to accept…

Rinse and repeat the takeaways.

 

Thank you so much for listening! And until the next time, live passionately, vulnerably, and keep loving later life!

Is It Ok to Talk About Prior Relationships While…

Is It Ok to Talk About Prior Relationships While Dating?

Dating after 50 in later life can have its ‘opportunities.’ Do you think it’s ok to talk about your prior relationships while dating? Apparently, there are many different answers to this question depending on who you ask! What if your date asks you too many questions? Or what if they don’t ask any questions about you at all? Hear how the TV show The View inspired me for this episode. I will be sharing my thoughts in a way that satisfies a couple of my fantasies, so I hope you’ll take a little time to enjoy my view! Come join me!!

Not be missed take-ways:

1. Without knowing about someone’s history, including prior relationships, it’s harder to get to know who a person really is.

2. If you feel comfortable sharing something even on a first date, go for it…and pay attention to how it’s received.

3. If they feel what you share is TMI, then perhaps they’re not the person for you.

4. If your date doesn’t want to hear about your previous relationships, I say that’s a big red flag; run don’t walk.

5. Conversely, if they ask what feels like a lot of inappropriate questions on a first date, that can also be a red flag.

6. Annnd, if they ask NO questions about you at all and basically only talk about themselves, also not so good.

7. Just follow your gut and be you.

And your mission, that I hope you’ll choose to accept…

1) Let me know your thoughts. Would it upset you if your partner called his ex the love of their life?

2) Do you think it’s ok for someone to forbid you to talk about prior relationships? Weigh in here, I want to hear what you think!

3) And lastly, don’t forget to share this episode if you liked it, and please rate and review?! Sign also up for my email on nancylanggibbs.com or lovinglaterlife.com and email me with any topic or guest ideas!

 

Thank you so much for listening! And until the next time, live passionately, vulnerably, and keep loving later life!
