Dear members, Our community is officially getting a new name and theme!! Real Talk for Singles 50+ is now → Find Love After 50 [aka FLAF]. Along with that, you may have noticed a "subtle" Seinfeld-inspired vibe... (I still find that show hilarious after all those years). Why the change? Dating does not need to feel heavy, frustrating, or soul-sucking. Many of you are thoughtful, accomplished, emotionally aware humans… and yet dating can start to feel like a second job with terrible benefits. So I’m rebranding the community with a clear intention (and to set the example) 👉 More fun. Less formality. 👉 More playfulness. Less overthinking. 👉 More courage to take risks and show up as your bold self. Less wondering what people will think of you. “Real Talk” served us well, but this next chapter is more forward-looking. It’s about momentum, possibility, not just talking, but actually making some bold moves. I'm giving you permission to experiment, laugh, and stop playing it so safe that nothing changes. Humor helps us loosen up, take risks, and stop treating dating like a referendum on our worth. So I want your honest take. Quick poll 👇 How does the new name and theme land for you? Feel free to comment if you want to say more. This community is a co-creation, and your feedback genuinely matters. Because dating after 50 should feel more like eating a big salad…and less like waiting around at Monk’s wondering if you'll ever land a table. — Dessi

I still love Seinfeld and am surprised by people who say then never found it funny. It seems that people either love it or hate it. I guess Kathy GriffIn hates it. LOL

I know that many of you are taking this week off from the usual routines and to-dos. Perhaps you're taking stock of the past year and assessing the path you have walked. Remember that you've accomplished a lot. Even if it doesn't feel like it. Remember, you are worthy of love. You are worthy of appreciation. And are WORTHY of feeling like you've done enough. Take time for yourself and celebrate how far you've come. No matter where you are. 💜 Dessi xo

Not listening to music today, but I enjoyed hearing Laughey. Watching the movie American Psycho. Have never seen it before. Quite peculiar. Worth watching to see what ever happens.

I live in Aberdeen, MD and have only lived around Baltimore for ten years. Well, ten quick years. I grew up in Pittsburgh, PA and lived in Northern VA for almost thirty years. I have few friends and woud like to chat with others about their favorite sports teams, music, movies, and whatever. If you want to say "hi" contact me.
