When it comes down to golf, many of us enjoy the idea of being able to practice our favourite sport away from the stresses that everyday life has to offer. Taking a break from the wife or the family is a necessity and makes us a better person when we come home. But not all of us have got a partner to come back home to.
Being a mature single person
When we reach our 40’s and 50’s, most people imagine that we have a life partner at home waiting for us. But there are many reasons why some of us are still single in our mature years. Some of us have chosen to be single as a lifestyle, having no orders to take from anyone and living by our own rules. Others have had single life imposed to them, following a divorce or the passing of our previous partner.
Now that we found ourselves in that position, it often feels quite complicated to get back into the dating game. Whether we are just too anchored in our single life or because we think we cannot replace our past partner, we find ourselves alone, only being able to take it out on our golf clubs as often as we can practice our favourite sport.
The joys of golf
Golf is amazing, it is peaceful and often beautiful. We golf, we get to appreciate nature as well as the beauty of human intervention over natural spaces. Golf courses are great natural places, beautifully shaped by human beings. Those two factors are very similar to the way one can appreciate having a partner. People are naturally beautiful, and they shape us as well as we shape them.
Golf can be quite competitive too, putting our sense of pride on the table. We like to win against others and ourselves; and we also know how to put our competitive streak aside in order to appreciate the experience of a good game. Once again, those feelings are ones that we often feel when looking for a new partner. We want to find the best person with the most features which suit us but we are also willing to compromise; accepting them for who they are and the needs they have.
Like many other sports, finishing a game of golf and making it back home to be welcomed by our wife or partner is one of the best forms of happiness we get to enjoy. This is why even the most hardened and single mature golfer should consider getting back into dating.
Getting back into dating
It is never too late to get back into dating; even if we feel older. In fact, the internet now has plenty of over 40 dating sites. And joining those websites, it is amazing to see just how many like-minded people of our age we can find. There is no doubt that we can make ourselves look great for our date, making all our golf practice pay off. Letting our future partners know of our sports activities into our dating profile will make us a very appealing catch. And let’s face it, we will meet more women out there online than here at the club house.
