💬 “I compare it to looking for a new house. You see one online and it looks fantastic but then when you go to view it in the flesh it’s a big disappointment,” says Jacqui Baker We spoke to women in their fifties who shared their dating experiences ⬇️
Jacqui Baker, 59, is divorced and has three grown-up children. She lives in Hampshire and owns the dating agency, which caters for singles in their fifties, sixties and seventies. Her last long-term relationship ended in January 2018 and she dates intermittently.
I went on one date with a man who had clearly used a photo from 30 years ago – he was so unrecognisable that I walked right past him in the car park. Then there was the man who lied about his height. I’m only 5ft 1in and 8.5st but he was smaller than me. I could have snapped him in half. I compare it to looking for a new house. You see one online and it looks fantastic but then when you go to view it in the flesh it’s a big disappointment. Compare this with the house that doesn’t look that great online but is say in an area you love. When you go to see it you’re bowled over.
Five years after my divorce, aged 50, I met a man online and we had a four-year relationship, which worked beautifully. I thought he was the one, but then he moved away and the long distance just didn’t work.
