The over-70s are bringing sexy back

I BECAME aware of senior dating when I started working with Bryan D Segar.

He is 74 and a real character. He told me, “I think I will live to at least 80, and I need a woman in my life”. Bryan and me wrote a witty informative personal advert and placed it in a national paper and in Ireland’s Own. Bryan got quite a few replies but how he responded to them was quite surprising to me.

I had coached him to not be too blunt on the phone and to take his time to move things slowly in a new relationship. Bryan told me one morning, “I spoke with the woman from the advert last night, I told her I want a woman to love me, and I want a sexual relationship”.
