Being single at 50 — is it exciting, exhausting, or a little bit of both? In this episode of the No Expiration Date Podcast, Cindy, Ann-Marie, and Marcie get real about the highs, lows, and hilarious moments of being single and dating in midlife. Whether you’re thriving solo, swiping reluctantly, or happily single, this one’s for you.
We chat about:
What’s surprising (and not so surprising) about dating after 50
Deal breakers, red flags, and awkward first dates
Why the dating pool might be a little...shallow
The power of choosing yourself and loving solo life
Our favorite solo adventures and why we sleep better alone
We also sprinkle in some dating stats, personal horror stories, and the freedom that comes with knowing YOU are enough — plus, a fun conversation about whether we’d ever date women. (Spoiler: Nope.)
If you’ve ever been asked, “Why are you still single?” — this episode is your reminder that your life is whole, complete, and amazing as is.
