Sabine Lehmann – blogger on dating over 50

Hi, I'm Sabine.

54 years old, single again for three years, and in the middle of a whole new chapter of life. I write the way I live – honestly and without filters.

Dating over 50 Fresh Start Travel Relationships

Who I am

I'm 54, live in Düsseldorf, and three years ago, after almost 25 years of marriage, I suddenly found myself on my own. What felt like the end back then turned out, looking back, to be the start of a chapter of life I wouldn't want to be without today. I'm dating again – and I'm open about it, even if some people my age still smile at the idea.

On Frauen-Ab-50.net I write about what I've been through myself: the first uncertain steps back into dating, the question of how you even meet someone online these days, and the experiences I've had with different men since. How do I communicate my expectations at this age? How do I deal with prejudice? What actually makes a relationship later in life?

How it all began

After the separation, a good friend talked me into creating a dating profile. I was sceptical, felt too old for “something like that” – and was proven wrong. My first serious encounter was with a man who showed me that confidence and experience count for more in dating than a flawless appearance. We travelled together, talked for hours, and I learned to stand up for myself again.

These experiences shaped me. And I want to pass them on, because back then I would have wished for someone to tell me honestly how dating later in life really works.

What to expect here

I write every post from a first-person perspective, with my own experiences and concrete tips. Not a generic “How to find a man at last” guide, but content that really helps – whether you have only just become single or have been back on the dating scene for a while.
