"As soon as I mention the topic will be dating, I'm sure that some might wonder "what is the relevance of this topic to me?" And so I'd like to start off by discussing who this material is really relevant to. Without a doubt, this information is important for single people who are interested in finding people to have a close personal relationship with. That goes without saying. However, it might be thought that a married person would have no interest in this topic, but we have to remember these days that upwards of fifty percent of all married couples are going to eventually be single again someday. So usually when a divorced person enters the single world, they enter it with even less understanding of the current mechanics of what goes on the dating scene than a person who has been single for a while. For this reason, I think married people are equally interested. Also it is important to acknowledge that the married person often has many single friends who they are trying to help deal with the process of being single and looking for a spouse or a mate. So married persons need to be able to relate to the troubles and difficulties single people are undergoing. The same is true for parents, grandparents, or other relatives who are also trying to help their single relative negotiate this difficult arena of life."
