Dating Advice | Women Over 40

[@ShaCurington]

Thanks!

[@AngelaMashelle]

Sha THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE $ support!!! I really appreciate it💕

[@ShawanMason]

I'm 37 and woke up this morning thinking that it might be too late for me to find love. Your very first point about there being nothing wrong with a person if they're single past a certain age hit me in the heart and I appreciate that. I think us single ladies need to hear that every once in a while from a trusted voice. ❤

[@AngelaMashelle]

NOTHING! Continue to live your life and the one for you will find you💕

[@chayilevents7979]

There is no age limit on finding love.

[@christinastevenson3282]

Girl it's NEVER too late. I have dated (and married) some men that I compromised myself to make them happy. Once I started being true to the REAL ME, I was blessed at over 50 with someone who truly makes me happy.

[@GlmrGrl98]

It’s NEVER too late! Keep living in your purpose and let love find you.

[@MrsDMG2024]

Definitely feel the same way

[@paulette8430]

Great video that you shared, you see I became a widower at the age of 29 years old. I just turned 60 and still single. I never remarried, haven’t dated in 10years, but I haven’t give up hope.

[@iwasbornunderwater]

Finding this video was just mind blowing. I'm 44, never married, woke up today feeling down on myself and entertaining just giving up on anything relationship inclined. I was looking up different ways to hang my curtains and, bam, there you were. You brightened my day. New sub.

[@preztjuswoman]

Just turned 45...needed this, tears in my eyes. God is faithful, thanks for being a light in the darkness. More blessings 🙌🏿🙏🏿💖

[@ChristopherRenato-wy6xl]

At forty isn't that bad.. But living with the Wrong person .. That's Awful.. Thanks for your Advice.. You nail it .

[@samrahere]

True 💯💯

[@chantelvenessa]

Absolutely 💯

[@Faithwith_kc]

I'm married but I have to say that this was the most practical advice I've heard anyone on KZbin give regarding dating and relationships. Btw, I love your content and love what you said about needing a man that shows you kindness. It's an important trait that you appreciate even more as you get older.

[@AngelaMashelle]

It certainly has been for me

[@gaeletchaffa1730]

That intro was HILARIOUS!😂 Not only was this video beneficial for those dating but also for the married ones! A constant reminder to be the best we can be while making sure that our “non-negotiables” are on point!👌🏾 Loved it!👍🏾

[@AngelaMashelle]

Glad you liked it!!

[@towandalomax3295]

I REALLY ENJOYED this video. Very good tips. I am 59 and been single for about 7 years after been married for 26 years. I have been using dating site and overall I find it to be a great resource. There are still some really great guys in my age range out there. Still waiting to meet "The One" but enjoying myself as I wait for him Thanks so much I really LOVE your channel ❤

[@carolynjoiner5286]

The sweater is absolutely beautiful!!!

[@b.kingram4389]

Great advice Angela. Me being 60 and a Christian, I have to be careful not to date unequally yoked. There's a really nice widower that's interested in me, a great catch but he is not saved. If he was saved we would be together. It's important not to settle because the package looks good it doesn't mean it's good for you. I'm still single and waiting for that God fearing man to come into my life. I want a leader who can pray for me, teach me, hold me and laugh with me. Most of all one who can praise God with me! Love your advice and your beauty advice. I love you and so proud of you and Production.

[@AngelaMashelle]

Hey sis. That was one of my non-negotiables. It may not be important to some people, but it was very important to me

[@ladonnawashington1643]

So nice to know we are not the only ones. If you don’t love my Jesus and have a testimony? I don’t want you! And I’m not making any introductions either. Jesus, this is James. James meet Jesus. 👎🏽 Nope! Let’s stay the course. Our paths WILL cross. We have God’s Word on it!

[@Niamirismom]

When I get married again I am putting that in my vows: "Through sickness, health, and split ends" Yes!

[@Tfolife528]

So true Ms. Angela, we were taught to be quiet. It worked against me as an adult. I had to unlearn the behavior. Thank you for sharing your wisdom!

[@AngelaMashelle]

It's a challenge to reprogram that behavior

[@anabella4296]

Thanks hun! I will file it for future references . I become a widow at the age of 40 . I am now 52, i had my very first relationship 10 years after my husband passed. One year Into our relationship, C 19 came .since we didn't leave together because I am still old fashioned, we went our separate ways. Still single, but hopeful .🙏☺

[@bevp9950]

So am I. No problem with being old fashioned! Plus, I've found that most men are not ready. They still lie and are pretentious. In addition, most are not communicable disease free! Better plan a trip to the health department 1st thing!

[@AngelaMashelle]

Amen to that

[@t.r.8794]

Thank you. I am over 40 and working on myself is important. Also, self love is important.

[@AngelaMashelle]

Absolutely!

[@fdoctor79]

The lesson that I am learning is the importance of knowing oneself and being committed to do the work on an individual and collective level. Such sound advice, Ms. Angela. Tfs

[@sherrytee2962]

🙌 Are they financially stable=not how much do they make but how much do they keep? And that's how we should look at our own finances too. Really detailed with great examples.

[@AngelaMashelle]

Yes and yes

[@allaroundgrandma6312]

I'm 76 years old and I totally agree.

[@rushawnjames3191]

Thank you because I'm the one who works from home, lounging, goes out to the grocery store or random shopping & errands now and then since this pandemic. You are correct, "you're not going to meet anyone!" Venturing out more has to be the answer i guess. :)

[@2mammaR]

Same here. I don’t get out much.

[@halliebass]

Enjoyed this. I am in my sixties and One of my friends said “ at our age, most men are looking for a nurse or a purse”! Haha! In other words, some one to look after them!

[@AngelaMashelle]

Lord hammercy!

[@garlicgirl3149]

OMG!

[@kaybee6629]

This is new to me and funny as all heck 🤣🤣🤣

[@Evettecord]

I believe that

[@katec9893]

I'm 39 and online dating I kept receiving messages from 55+ year old men. They should be messaging 55+ year old women instead! You're right about the likelihood of becoming a carer later in life especially when there's a big age difference.

[@cicelyingram7683]

Time out Sis! You can't older than 35, max 40! How could you meet Ben at 46 and have gotten married at 47 as if you are older than that? You look AMAZING, period!❣❣ Now, let me listen to the rest of the video ☺️

[@AngelaMashelle]

HI Cicely! Yes maám. I'm 51 now.

[@cindys2995]

Man! I never knew I was so immature when it came to expressing myself until I got with a real man. I would shut down, hang up, and be all teary-eyed (which is not necessarily wrong), whenever we had a conflict. Sooooo hard to grow in that area, but takes WORK! THANK YOU for sharing.

[@DCmama72]

Wow Angela! I can relate with you about expressing myself. I shut down too & I am slowly learning communication is the best resolution to any issue. This was a much needed conversation.

[@AngelaMashelle]

Yes! Thank you!

[@designismedaily]

Healthy relationships all 2022 & beyond 🥂✨ great video Ange, love these sit down chats 🤍

[@designismedaily]

Honesty is definitely a nonnegotiable for me 🙏🏽 being truthful is major

[@shoshanahhillman5197]

This is a blessing, I was in an abusive relationship and I have been divorced for 8 years. I have been single all this time. I’m turning 47 in two weeks and I am ready. It blessed me to hear your testimony today.

[@ColdDiva]

OooooooooO! That 1st part is my full bibliography!!! The EXACT way I was raised and many others in Black culture. I now know for sure it is ESSENTIAL to have a partner adept and patient through navigating confrontation and emotions. Because I am not at collegiate level yet! Truly loved this talk!!! Thank you!

[@AngelaMashelle]

You are so welcome. It was very hard learning how to communicate while I'm angry, but growing the combination of growing older and having a patient partner made it possible. You can do it. The forst step is recognizing what it comes from

[@ineverythinggivethanks3249]

You hit on some EXCELLENT points! My how time changes a mindset. It’s videos like this that set you apart from some other fashion KZbinrs. May the Lord continue to use you.💕

[@AngelaMashelle]

Thank you so much. I appreciate you response

[@theosymommy]

I like this topic.. Angela A you are my girl in my head 💖I'm forty and single. I used to feel bad about being single. Not anymore.. I am loving myself and working on the life I want for myself and my son. I want to be be in a loving marriage one day. I am now patient and aware of what I don't want. You were spot on with your advice.. Thanks for having this conversation.. God Bless 🙏🏽

[@ChristopherRenato-wy6xl]

At forty isn't that bad.. But living with the Wrong person .. That's Awful..

[@lowusua2416]

Starting therapy at 40 was the biggest gift to myself and was such a God thing for me. I was convinced because I hadn't had what I viewed as major trauma, what could I possibly need to deal with. Child, God has spent 2 years refining and preparing me and I couldn't be more grateful that I had the time, space and resources in this season to address my issues and to grow. I feel like it has been true preparation for me to be the woman I need to be for the kind of relationship I want, need, and deserve. So much truth and wisdom in this video!

[@AngelaMashelle]

That's wonderful Lindsey. I feel fine, but I've always wondered what a conversation with a therapist would reveal

[@jones2277]

i've tried therapy with various practitioners for over a decade, but i just don't get how people find it helpful. i thought i was the only one who felt that way until i started following a KZbinr who dived into the ways traditional talk therapy doesn't meet everyone's needs.

[@ms.chocoshortcake4403]

Angela, this video is right on time for me. I have a younger sister who has never been married and she keeps asking me about my relationship. I haven't been on a date with any body else but my husband since 1989. We were married 2 years later. I am going to tell her about this video because the information is modern, smart and extremely practical. Thank you.

[@0728brown]

I loved this sit down video.❤ Myself and a few friends are single and approaching 40. The dating pool can be discouraging at times. Thanks for sharing your encouraging story and great advice.👍🏽

[@AngelaMashelle]

Absolutely!!

[@lavonyaantrice]

This one is so on time for where I am. I have not dated in years and need honest tips like this. I love to watch videos that help me grow.

[@ineverythinggivethanks3249]

I’m just clicking on and we are wearing the exact same sweater, same color!😂

[@AngelaMashelle]

And Ben tried to clown my shoulders😂

[@velmasmall3599]

Loved this conversation!!! I had an epiphany and now realize why I respond as I do.to conflict or disagreements. Thank you for sharing!!!! You always give sound advice. Keep shining!!!

[@uvyhtybhhhhhuhhjjjjj]

You're such a beauty and a class act! Thank you for shedding your wisdom and tips for dating. I just turned 40 this month and am hanging on to all of the hope of meeting the man that God has instore for me. Thank you for sharing your story; honest and true. You're notion of helping people is absolutely helpful. I feel as if you're the mentor I've never had. Thank you!🤗

[@AngelaMashelle]

Thank you so much, and Happy Birthday!

[@mzdivans]

Thank You for this video. I’m 47 and I have taken the necessary steps for me to heal after an ten year marriage. It’s been three years now and I’m just now having thoughts about dating again. This video definitely gave me some insight not just what I’m looking for in an man but also can I hold myself accountable to give the same as what I want to receive from a man.

[@AngelaMashelle]

You got this Nicole!

[@sharondeloach2533]

This video is so on point , love the singing at the beginning and through sickness, health and split ends🤣🤣 All singles should listen to this video . I am married and will share with all my married and single friends, I definitely have a couple of extra pieces of Advice but only if they ask.. 🤣🤣🤣

[@AngelaMashelle]

I'd love to join a sister circle of married women gvingin advice about marriage

[@mzstep27]

I’m 38 and thank you, I really appreciate you sharing your relationship experience and give these tips!

[@robertamcneill2613]

If I could like this video 1,000 times I would. This video was so on time and on point I had to stop and take notes. Thank you for being so open and real. You are my big sister in my head!!!

[@AngelaMashelle]

Thank you so much!

[@naturalfitgirl80]

These were all so good! Communication, expressing feelings, honesty and good character, passionate about something and the "non -negotiables" ! Whew! you said a mouth full but you are truly helping some young women out there! Heed the warnings ladies :)

[@AngelaMashelle]

Couldn't agree more!

[@brandygee9954]

I love the sweater and the hair! Great video. Tfs.

[@diamondunicorn2421]

I absolutely Love your transparency!! Authentic you are and your content!

[@AngelaMashelle]

Thank you so much!!

[@lu_re7198]

Video suggestion: Please show us how you store, budget for, and edit your extensive wardrobe.😃 Also, many of us can relate to “shutting down” emotions, so that’s another interesting topic...Thanks for the great advice!

[@AngelaMashelle]

Noted!

[@missmiriam1682]

Loved this sit down. Thank you Angela. You are a sweet heart!

[@sharonsingleton6366]

I truly thought something was wrong with me for years, thank you for the confirmation, that there is nothing wrong with me because Im single. Please do more videos like this one💘 it.

[@shagneking3914]

Ah, yes, the much awaited video. You are very self-aware and offered great advice along with practical wisdom. Excellent job! NOTE: If you and 'Production' are willing, I would love to hear his dating advice. A man's perspective on this topic is always welcome.

[@trinamarietv600]

Great Video very good dating advice. Non negotiable are a must. Ask Questions and more questions.

[@pamk1967]

This was Amazing💕, blowdryer Karakoe!!! 🤣😂🤣 I have been divorced 9 years ad of Feb 12, 2022 and I needed this. Ms. Rona and her Cousin Omi are doing the most in Dallas-Fort Worth, TX but hopefully one day I can get back in the world under God's light and path and refer to your advise Angela! And that is true for women that are more seasoned (in my 50's),, we have been in or through it and know what we want and hopefully who we are and that we are Enough, Boo'd up or not. Hey Production 👋🏾 Thank you both👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@vivianmoses1984]

I enjoy your videos. I am 73 still looking for my person. I live in greenville, SC. I heard you say you were from SC. I am happy for you that you found your person to share your life with. I will keep the faith.....

[@evejkay6749]

Great stuff! Thank you for sharing. I'm 47 and still hopeful that I will meet someone to spend the rest of my days with.

[@AngelaMashelle]

I hope so too!

[@rhodacelestine2936]

All of your points were right on time, and well explained

[@barbaragonzalez3504]

I'm 54 and dating advice is a good thing. I'm not looking right now; but, that may change. You look fabulous. Love the sweater. Happy New Year!

[@AngelaMashelle]

Thank you Barbara. Happy New Year to you too

[@vicarie79]

I remember seeing the vid thst talked about your relationship start. I absolutely love to hear people's story and yours is no exception! It's a beautiful story😍

[@AngelaMashelle]

Thank you so much!!

[@rhaburn1979]

This was so enlightening Angela thank you. Also I'm passionate about sewing, I love the creativity of it. I love the finish product it brings me joy.

[@AngelaMashelle]

Me too! I can get so lost in the creativity of sewing

[@JeneanZ_ChicConfidence]

That was really good and I’m married. My favorite part was just evaluating your past and see where you communication issues may have come from.

[@ReneeIsReborn]

What a WONDERFUL video! Such encouragement and wisdom!

[@nicholen88]

I usually do not like sit down and talk videos but yours are engaging.

[@crucianlam3425]

❤️ i like how transparent & authentic your in this video.

[@jazminegardner918]

Hello Angela!!❤ I am excited!! I love your new look 😊Thank you for sharing your dating experience very helpful I am so happy to be apart of your family 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@AngelaMashelle]

Hi Jazmine. Thank you so much for joining and commenting

[@ev2595]

“In sickness, health and split ends” 🤣 Ms Mam is laying out the comedy in 2022 🤣🤣🤣

[@thelmamusara2038]

I’m 26 & still find these tips very useful. This is such a great video!

[@AngelaMashelle]

Thank you Thelma. I wish I had heard this at 26 it would have saved me A LOT of heartache I promise you!

[@shirleyan4gentry212]

That's true Angela I grew up the same way

[@rochellek5327]

This was a fun chat. I really enjoy listening to other opinions, often we find that a lot of us have similar ways of looking at things 😆👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@AngelaMashelle]

I totally agree!

[@hairdresser1300]

beautiful...your nurse vibes are still shining through your videos. I think that is why your channel has grown so fast

[@AngelaMashelle]

Thank you so much!!

[@Tfolife528]

Ms. Angela , can you please do a video on styling A line dresses and skirts, to give them a shape? They seem to be so plain. Also I haven’t seen a video about how to wear and style accessories. Perhaps a classic pieces to have in your wardrobe video? Thank you so much for sharing more wisdom!

[@katrinaassoumou6400]

Thank you for those pointers on dating when you are over 40. Amen

[@AngelaMashelle]

Any time!

[@LatoyaLlab]

Thanks for this video. You live and you learn but it’s wonderful to have this sort of video to put those important questions in other peoples minds so they can avoid certain issues

[@JM-yf5rt]

You have beautiful, long, thick hair. You are also so relatable because you're age-related and so is your romance. Thank you for sharing.

[@AngelaMashelle]

Thank you for watching JM

[@ketoles7777]

You & Ben are hilarious 😂 I was raised like you. I insisted and got therapy inspite of relatives opinions at the time. Best decision for me.🌄

[@monicacofie9499]

I like the ' life' content so much. Kudos to Production too.

[@ElizaBeth-ve6nz]

Great conversation and advice..

[@patchambliss64]

Wow, my ONLY request of my last male encounter was to just be kind to me, he wasn't, so he's not only blocked and I have decided that I have no space to entertain him. Then speaking of health challenges, whew, where do I began, Jesus?? I love how transparent you are and all of the positiveness that you bring to your platform. I have always wanted the experience of an interracial relationship and am patiently waiting. Continued blessing to the marriage and all of your extended offsprings! You ROCK! Keep living and walking in your purpose!! Love you and production lots!!!

[@ckfields7146]

You are always on time sis with your message.

[@sonmon2406]

I really enjoyed this video, the advice and tips you gave are very helpful and insightful.

[@nubi688]

Hi Angela, you look great! Thank you for taking the time to talk and share with us. Great video.

[@FrankieSee]

Thank you for putting words to your experience with how you respond to conflict and how your parter is able to help you change the behavior. I share these feelings and I’ve never been able to explain this to a partner.

[@phoebechristina]

I'm 33 and haven't had a stable, healthy, and safe relationship yet. I am continuing to work on myself, letting the past go, and meeting my own goals. I do want to get back into dating though. This video is informative for my age group included. I think all single women, as a matter of fact, should take all of these things into consideration. Thank you so much for this.

[@AngelaMashelle]

I know what you mean. I had a kiss a lot of frogs to get my prince charming

[@katrinaassoumou6400]

Your hair looks great. Amen

[@AngelaMashelle]

Thank you!!

[@stellastar2083]

For me the non negotiables is the most important point and be realistic about that also...🖤

[@latashahumphrey2641]

First off I love your sweater. I have been attracted to green in 2022. Secondly, thank you for this video. Being single is hard especially when you're in your late 30s and older. I'm old fashion with dating but I have been toying with checking out online dating.

[@AngelaMashelle]

You got this!

[@callieduval3000]

I discovered green is my color as well. It makes me glow live the sweater

[@kristindraper6480]

I can totally agree and be more comfortable and capable to relate to understand and work harder as this is

[@hollid175]

Your hair ooks great. You did a good job 👏 👏. Although I'm married, I'll listen anyway maybe I will hear something to share with a friend or family member. Hi production.🙂

[@CME1138]

Hello Angela..I purchased that sweater and it's beautiful. I love it. Gurl I bought all of the colors once it went on sale (now)

[@judithivy6955]

This was absolutely awesome!

[@shondelljames3019]

That's great that he listened & is willing to do what helps

[@charlotteeshun1393]

Happy you brought this up. Hope women who are not yet committed will take a lesson before it's too late. Brief . I dug my own grave ! ❤

[@AngelaMashelle]

Well said!

[@cherryandrews1429]

Hi🥰, This is a great video. I think a good thing to have an honest conversation about is finances. I love your sweater.

[@kasandrabutcher6037]

Thanks for the tips of dating. Girl I am 65 never been a single adult I married at 21 and my hubby passed away 2 month of my 60 birthday. Needless to say dating is so much different than the 70s. I am really afraid so girl pray for me it will be 6 six years this June and I really haven't had the desire I would like to meet a good man that would have tge same interest as myself but I don't know.

[@AngelaMashelle]

I'll be praying for you sis

[@sandrastewart1350]

Angela! This was a great sit down, face to face talk❤️ you have a lot of experience and knowledge to share with single folks. I feel like someone should compensate you for it….just saying 😊! I am so blessed that I don’t have to deal with that aspect of my life right now 🙏🏽. I hope that this video has really helped someone else because it touched me in such a way and reminded me of the things I needed in my life when I was looking for that special someone. Thank you so much 🙏🏽

[@AngelaMashelle]

Thank you so much!

[@zorerb3781]

This is the first video of yours that I've watched (thinking at 42 I may be single in a few months) but I wanted to say -- what great character you have! When you said you miss being hands on with patiences and talking to them--- that's a GREEN flag! You must be so nice.

[@AngelaMashelle]

Wow, thank you! It just brings me so much joy

[@shyrahoward-davis8251]

OMG!! I love your relationship with your husband. Thank you for the knowledge and advice.

[@kjenkins3939]

This was so helpful. I would add to see if there are similarities in faith. Thank you 💕💕🙏🏾

[@marblessed9597]

Sage advice and love your ensemble (hair & outfit on point)!

[@AngelaMashelle]

Thank you!!

[@joyguidry9598]

I appreciate this video! This is me!! I always say I need a minute! Great info

[@ronastouch]

Awesome tip

[@sheronicamcintyre8150]

Hello Mrs.Angela!!!! I just turned 40 and single. Im working on me before I look for someone

[@annhamer7466]

Thank you. I been feeling some type of way. I'm 46 to be 47 in a couple months. I work in a plant. So it's hard meeting outside of it. But I don't date in there. Everyone dating each other 😫😒It's hard. I stayed in a relationship for 5 years when the first 2 I knew it was over. It's scarey out there. Thank you for your Channel ❤❤⚘⚘🥰

[@pockahantiss]

…This is GOOD advice! I jus’ turned 41, and I’m eventually going to date. I’m glad that you put things into perspective. Thanks Ms. Angie!!!❤️❤️

[@AngelaMashelle]

You got this!

[@lavellewilliams3737]

I love, love, love your since of humor. You and your husband are prefect together. It’s just wonderful!

[@janewill6801]

Thank you Angela! I need to go back and make notes!! Great video.

Thank you Jane
