Widower’s Journey Herb Knoll

So, you say you're tired of being alone. You need a friend or a lover in your life, but where does one begin? Maybe you’ve tried dating sites, but none of your dates clicked.  Dating at your age is unlike anything compared to dating when you were young.  Every woman seems to have so much baggage: obligations, preferences, and problems you prefer not to get involved with. (As if you don’t have a few of your own.)  Still, being lonely is no way to spend the rest of your life.  You need help, and Herb Knoll has found it.  Say hello to Herb’s guest on this Widower’s Journey Podcast #47, Let’s Talk Dating Hosts Christine Baumgartner and Barry Selby.  Christine and Barry understand the dating world and are the right medicine for what ails you. You’re going to enjoy this podcast. Give it a listen.
