Having Time
I am in my 50+ and dating at this age could seem even more like a treachery minefield.

How to Be Selfish and Happy at the Same Time

Ray Dodd

The reality is that to be truly happy, sometimes you need to put "you" first. So, if you decide to take extra good care of yourself and be happier, become more selfish in the way you treat your Human (emotions, body, and mind.)
