Welcome to Relationships Baby Boomer style.
Ah yes, relationships. Perhaps the last time you really thought about ‘getting it on’ was when you were wearing bell bottom jeans with colorful patches and the only thing you really worried about were pimples, whether or not to wash your shoulder length hair and if you were going to score.
It’s true that pimples, bell bottoms, and long hair have given way to laugh lines, relaxed fit pants, and less hair but with that comes emotional maturity that gives you a leg up on the younger-you. Sometimes having an empty nest and just the two of you to fill in all the silence can be overwhelming. Relax; it’s not as daunting as it looks.
Relationships are complicated things. Dating isn’t the same as it was when you were in your twenties or even your forties. Whatever your situation, we’re here to help you with tips on how to begin the dating process again or how to make the transition from full time worker to full time spouse. The Smart Retiree will give you the tools necessary to help you get the most out of all your relationships.
