by After Liam Neeson, 73, meet his co-star Pamela Anderson (58) on the set of her new film The Naked Gun with compliments overwhelmed only how “fun” and “easy to work”, but also explains that he is “insane in love”.
“It’s just great to work with you. I can’t compliment her enough, I’ll be honest with you,” he told People Magazine in an interview in October 2024.
Anderson, too, seems to be just as in love with him and the taken actor “The Perfect Gentleman” branded and added that he “brings out the best in her”.
Despite these loving exchanges, both prominent romantic rumors have rejected, with Neeson emphasizing that he is “finished” with dating “and Anderson insist that he is simply” a friend forever “.
Now people are reporting that the couple is actually in the early stages of an emerging romance.

While the latter was married six times and has two sons with Möteny Crüe -Rocker Tommy Lee, Neeson has started a serious relationship since the early death of his wife and parents’ button Natasha Richardson, who died in 2009 after a head injury in Canada. You share two sons: Micheál and Daniel.
So for those who later actively look for love in life – what does it look like? And how are you doing?
Yahoo UK spoke to the Senior British Association for Counseling and Psychotherapy (BACP) -anchored therapist Debbie Keenan and Bacp -Akreditated consultant and relationship expert Georgina Stormer to find out more.

The advantages of dating when you are older
Stormer notes that the older growth will benefit to really know us. “We know what we like, what we don’t like, what we have to offer and where our limits are,” she says. “This can lead to a happier relationship, especially if we are safe in ourselves.”
Similarly, Keenan believes that in this life they are more confident, versed and more realistic when it comes to dating. “You are financially certain that you are not looking for someone who is a parent of your children and you are less likely to look for dependency,” she explains. “You are confident who you are in the present because you have this emotional awareness and maturity.”
How to find love later in life – and approach new romances

1. Explore confidence boosting techniques
While many people will be more on their needs and wishes at this point in life, some may lack trust or a feeling of individuality – especially if they have focused on starting a family or serving others.
To build her self -confidence, Keenan suggests daily confirmations and looks literally in the mirror. As uncomfortable as it feels by seeing yourself how others see you see, you can appreciate what you are putting on the table and better understand your dating goals.
Stormer also says that conversations with new human objects in a romantic environment or non-this can contribute to building their self-esteem and changing their way of thinking in order to make it easier if they decide to venture the jump and date again.

2. Exit your fears
Another technique that you may have heard is a so-called “reject therapy” concept of facing your fear of rejection head-on by regularly getting there until you no longer in phase. Imagine you speak on the phone. You may not like to ring people, but the more you do, the more comfortable you are and the better you get with communication.
However, Keenan points out that a softer approach can be an “exposure therapy”, which is similar, but means that they concentrate more on fulfilling their thoughts on a problem or fear, and can mean this through imaginary exposure. “This could be achieved through role -playing games to desensitize the fear of the problem,” she adds.

3. Try to make an open mind with apps with apps
Keenan acknowledges that dating apps can be “scary” – especially if they have never used them before. “You can also be very clinical and if you have not built this self -confidence, you first feel overwhelming,” she says.
For those who are outside of practice, dating apps can be a good starting point. Sturmer states: “The dating scene may have continued, but this also offers opportunities because there are new opportunities to meet people, especially if they are introverted or not often in social situations. Open to be honest and keep a feeling of perspective if you choose the use of apps.”
4 .. join social groups
“Meeting someone is often much easier if you have common interests or see yourself in regular activity,” comments Stormer. “While dating shouldn’t be the only goal, it could expand your circle to try out new social groups or new hobbies.”

5. Rate your needs new
If you are a parent or have taken care of a large part of your life, you may have difficulty disguising your identity from your relatives and making it more difficult if you are willing to date again.
If this is the case, Keenan advises that you think back what made you happy before you have children or a long -term relationship. “Finding something that nourishes her every day and drips into her life can help you restore your self -confidence.”
It is also important to judge whether you are ready for a relationship or romantic encounters, says Stormer. “Have you met someone you really like, or do you just feel lonely and try to close a gap?

6. Don’t hurry
“If we have had a significant relationship in the past, it is important to recognize all persistent spirits – whether they are in the past or whether they are part of our present,” says Sturmer. “It may feel tempting to compare a new partner with an old one, but it is best to approach the new relationship with a clean slate if you can.”
If you embark on a new relationship, it is important to know that other people in your life can express your opinions or judgments about a new partner. “This can be something or not that you want to take into account, but if you know that it may be possible, you can at least be prepared.”
For those who have lost a partner and face the challenge of introducing someone to his life and life of their children, Keenan says that it is of the greatest importance to listen to their needs, but gently involve things, do not try to force the hand of a party or to do too much early.
If you are the new flame, she says that you don’t try to be a step parent for your children and try to find things with compassion. “Remember that the person you are with was first a parent and you had an entire identity and a whole life before you came along. Take things gently with compassion and understanding,” she advises.
