Audra: Getting into the dating game right after divorce, that can be pretty tough but our
relationship experts, Matt Titus and Tamsen Fadal, have some great advice in
today’s Ask Matt and Tamsen.
Matt: Hey everybody, Matt and Tamsen here at the Sony Style Store here in New York
City ready to answer some of your questions.
Tamsen: Yeah we’ve got questions about tact and love, I guess they go hand in hand
nowadays?
Matt: That’s absolutely right.
Tamsen: “Dear Matt and Tamsen, I have two children, I’m just divorced, and I don’t know
where to begin to date, is online an option for me. I’m 47 years old and a little bit
nervous about it.”
Yes.
Matt: Of course, you’re not a hundred. Online is definitely an option for you, as a matter
of fact, it might be the best option. It’s really convenient, it’s easy, and you just
have to pick a website that maybe fits your lifestyle right now, right?
Tamsen: Yeah, and fit your personality, I mean, I wouldn’t jump online and think you’re
going to meet the man of your dreams in the first three dates, because that’s
probably not going to happen most likely, it never happens. What you really have
to do though, is you’re going to sort your profile. Make sure you’re with people
who are appropriate, you know, where you are. You do have two children, you
know, you want people that are within your age bracket if that’s what you’re
looking for and obviously geographically close.
Matt: I’m going to go on a limb here, I like eHarmony for you. Just because it’s a little
bit of an older group of people and the way in which they match, probably is
taking into consideration the children which are very important to you. So, I will
look at eHarmony.
Tamsen: Yeah, check it out and let us know what happens, and good luck to you, I’m glad
you’re getting back out there. Alright, “Dear Matt and Tamsen,” this is our next
question, “My husband thinks its okay if our 14 year old daughter to post all of
her pictures on Facebook, I’m actually a little nervous about it, what do you think
we cannot agree with this one?”
I mean, you know, Facebook starting it was for people who were young, it just so
happens all of us are on it now.
Matt: I’d be terrified, I would.
Tamsen: I understand your concern, but I think maybe we could come to happy media
maybe it’s a picture you actually approved and then you and your husband can
settle that.
Matt: Great minds think alike. I was just going to say that, I think that you should
approve every single picture before she puts it up every week just have her send
the pictures that she plans to post, you know, it’s as easy as that.
Audra: And if you’ve got dating and relationship questions for Matt and Tamsen, you can
