People ‘need to stay confident’

People who have been out of the dating game for a while may find their confidence is shot when they make a return.

Relationship coach Maeve Crawford added that individuals should be keen to avoid making the same mistakes once they try to meet a prospective partner.

"What I recommend they do is write a few paragraphs describing the kind of life they want to live and the type of relationship they want to experience," she added.

Ms Crawford continued by saying they should then use the list to match up with someone who has similar interests.

Those keen to find their soul mate could be interested in online dating, as it offers individuals the chance to meet like-minded singletons looking for love.

However, once people have exchanged three or four messages over the internet, they should think about moving their relationship to the next level with a face-to-face meeting.
