Find love after 40!

You can meet someone special at any age, like Cathleen and Brian did. Here’s how . . .

Get out of your comfort zone! “As we get older, we focus more on people close to us,” says dating expert Susan Winter. “That’s why it’s important to spend more time trying new things to meet people.”

Get some help from your friends! “Let friends know that you’re looking to date and meet new people,” says Winter. Introductions are easier through mutual friends—and it saves you time searching through online profiles.

Have some fun! “Get involved in activities that bring you joy and put you in the right frame of mind for positive interactions,” says Winter. You can find lots of groups on Meetup.com.
