Ready, Reset, Mate: Restart Dating as an Older Adult

Ready, Reset, Mate is a dating guide for mature adults who are likely looking for love the second time around in a vastly different dating culture. This indispensable handbook focuses on understanding your readiness to date, using the Internet to find potential partners, forming a connection, and establishing a healthy foundation for building a relationship.

Finding a relationship means you may have to date many people. Ready, Reset, Mate provides a method to help minimize that number before finding your best-fit partner. It details the fundamentals of choosing a partner: why we want one, what to look for, and how to define the best fit, and concludes with how to hang onto a relationship once you have found one. It is about becoming the best version of yourself, knowing what you are looking for, and creating a strategy for meeting that special someone.

Dating can be like finding that infamous needle in a haystack, fraught with challenges and issues, especially if you are not ready for them. Helstrom talked with both male and female daters about their challenges and problems and has captured their concerns along with his own experiences to provide valuable, time-saving tips for those who may not have yet dated in the Internet era.
