M: Pepper Schwartz is a sociologist and author. Pepper, good morning to you.(7-1)You were married for 23 years and you’ve recently divorced. How did you feel about putting all of your personal business into a book?
W: Well, it was hard, I mean, to make a decision.(7-2)But I felt as an educator—I teach at the University of Washington—that(6)sometimes the best education is personal: your life, the ups, the downs, the heartbreaks, the triumphs, and then get some lessons from it.
M: So what’s the first thing you did?
W: Well, I tried to lose weight. That’s the first thing I did. But the second thing was just to get my mind in shape, just say: "OK, I really want to find somebody." Then I went online.(7 - 3)I was actually already a relationship expert at Perfectmatch.com, but I had never done it myself.
M: I love the story you said about how you met a guy online who made "annualized noises during conversation", and then you met this tattoo-clad French guy. But what I love about you is you didn’t just go plug your nose and say, "Oh, that was horrible." You take little lessons away from these dates.
W: Oh, absolutely.(8-1)At the end of every chapter, I say, here is what I learned out of the lesson: here is what you can too. I don’t even have to take this as "Oh, gosh, another bad date." Because that’s what a lot of women do.(8-2)No, you have to be able to be flexible, and look at it as education and you will find someone if you keep at it.
M:(9-1)And you said that women should rethink some of the big no-nos they say in their life. Let me just list some of them. I will not travel out of town to meet someone I don’t know well. I wouldn’t let someone I had only met briefly or online travel significant distance to see me. I would never date someone significantly older or younger than me. You said it’s time to rethink that whole list. Why not stick to those standards and say I’m not going to do those things?
W:(9-2)Well, if you stick to those standards, you will be very very lonely. Because there are just too many nos. I say why not. Particularly when you are over fifty or any age, you say, let’s start.(9 - 3)Why don’t I take a broad look at the whole out there, and see what I can learn from it? Your question should be why not. It is supposed be no-never. I try to get rid of never period.
M: What kind of guys are looking for women in their fifties?
W: Lots of men, thousands of men. Why would people on the net be worse than those who are out there in everyday life? In fact, they are better. Because at least, at our side, for many of the others, they are looking for relationships.(10)And I believe that when you are older, somebody wants a companion not a marriage.
M: Oh, Pepper, thank you so much. We appreciate you being on the show.
