It’s not unusual to date the same kind of person again and again, but Carolyn didn’t want to do that. Following a breakup, she decided to date a wide variety of types of men so that she could identify the qualities she wanted in a long-term partner. She named her adventure the “Fifty First Dates Project.” Find out what happened, what she learned during her two and a half year dating odyssey, and whether it led her to her Mr. Yes. Carolyn Lee Arnold's new book "Fifty First Dates After Fifty: A Memoir" can be purchased on Amazon or at your local bookstore. You can learn more about Carolyn on her website and connect with her on Facebook and Instagram.   Read the transcript for this episode.
