There are many dating guides around, but Dating for Grownups is the only one to offer advice aimed specifically at those later on in life, who have perhaps had a long-term relationship in the past which has ended, leaving them unsure of how to start dating again. The guide covers all methods of dating: from internet dating and speed dating, to the old fashioned courting rituals and singles holidays. Author Caroline Doughty acknowledges that everyone will approach the dating scene differently and ensures her advice is wide reaching and helpful. Included in the guide are quotes and tips from older daters who have 'been there and done it', dealing with issues such as nervousness and self-confidence. Caroline is a professional writer who is dating again after being widowed. She has used her personal experience to write this authoritative book and is also author of If There's Anything I Can Do.
