Why not?
This IS a fun read, and addresses all the aspects of
flings
and
frolics
and
forever
after
s in a manner that helped me determine what is right for me. Definitely a romantic look at all the possibilities, it helped me think about aspects of dating I may not have considered. This one gave me the courage to get out there because it also gave me a sense of my own boundaries and how to honor myself.
Romance Coach Gives 5 Stars
Yippee! Not too often am I able to write a good review about a
dating books for older women. In fact, I can't remember the
last one that I liked. But finally, a good one!

Flings

Frolics

After
s: A

's
Guide
to
Romance
After
Fifty
" by Katherine E. Chaddock and Emilie
Chaddock Egan is a winner.
Here's what I liked about it: This book was clearly written by
two women over fifty who have been there and done that. They
know what they are talking about and know how to write -- yea!
Chaddock and Egan do not talk down to their reader and do not
infantalize us with cutsey cartoons or think we won't see
through shallow information. This book is PACKED with
information. Granted, once in awhile, the authors do slip into
some not-so-adorable labels like "The Pin Cushion" and "The
Violin Player," but hey, none of us are perfect.
There's too much good in this book for me to pick out
illistrations. But I did particularly like what they called "the
nightie slide" (pg. 174) for finessing the "getting naked" part.
I did NOT like "The Magnolia Principle - the full court girly
push." Could be because it came from a woman who lived in
Oxford, Mississippi. I'm in Florida now, but Mississippi is too
recent in my memory to be able to romantisize Southern Belles.
So, I liked "Flings, Frolics, and Forever
Afters
" and recommend
it to any single woman over 50 who is stepping into the dating
fray. It'll help, believe me!

Fun, positive and forward-looking
This is a fun book, written by two very enthusiastic, positive women. I found it very enjoyable to read and got a kick out of it. This is a terrific book for women who are looking for a romantic partner/marriage or those who just need to get out of a tiresome routine. This book has lots of good suggestions on how to leave the doldrums/stagnation and get into the social swim. It is encouraging and very optimistic. The book offers good
guide
lines on how to zero in on a man who is suitable and harmonious while respecting and honoring your own needs and wants. The writing exercise on Action Goals and Life Pattern Goals is very valuable, regardless of where you are in life!
