40s after a string of ill-fated relationships.<\/p>\n<p>Writing in the Guardian, she observed she dated one man for seven years and another for three, before she decided to go online to find someone special.<\/p>\n<p>After about ten first dates, she met a man who seemed to tick the majority of the boxes and after a long-ish courtship, the pair eventually married and had a son.<\/p>\n<p>Ms Comerford remarked that after a while she became very good at reading through online profiles in order to find someone she was interested in.<\/p>\n<p>The female insists that a picture cannot tell people everything they need to know, but messages should be clear and tactful.<\/p>\n<p>Chrissy Richman, director of thelifechangepeople.com, recently encouraged people to pick an activity that will break the ice for a first date.<\/p>\n<p>Posted by Samantha Thompson<br> &nbsp;<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"ADNFCR-2867-ID-801274317-ADNFCR\"
