I’ve been single for too long

We have offered advice for people for people who have just come out of a relationship and for people who are still obsessed with their ex. Now is the time to address everyone who has been single for a long time.

Don’t believe that it’s too late

It’s never too late to join an online dating website, no matter how long you have been single for. There’s no maximum age limit too, so as long as you are over 18, you can join a dating website.

No dating history doesn’t make you updatable

Don’t panic if you don’t have any dating history to speak of, it doesn’t mark you out as updatable. It doesn’t mean that you are unattractive, or not worthy of love, it just means that you haven’t have the right person just yet. Just be honest with your date if they ask you about your dating history.

Do your research

If you have not been on a date for a number of years, then it is helpful to speak to friends about their experiences so that you know what to expect. Thanks to technology, online dating changes quite quickly and you may find that something that worked years ago (long dating profiles and lots of acronyms) won’t be as successful now.

You don’t need to follow convention

The conventional idea of love, is that you find someone special, get engaged, get married, move in together and have children. However, if you have been single for a long time, the thought of moving in with someone can be enough to put you off trying to meet someone all together. Take things slowly and say that you are keen to stay in your own home if you aren’t keen to live in someone else’s routine.

Take it slowly

You don’t need to rush things —take your time to get to know someone so that you feel comfortable with them.
