Dating for professionals: expert advice
If you're a busy professional it can be difficult to make time for your friends, family and hobbies – let alone the dating scene. Maintaining a successful career often goes hand-in-hand with long hours, travel, and taking your work home at the end of the day. With all that to contend with, the prospect of finding love might seem unlikely.
Here's the good news – modern dating is a lot simpler than it used to be. Back in the day, we may have relied on meeting other single people at social occasions or getting our friends to set us up on blind dates. This could sometimes feel like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Today, the popularity of online dating sites has made dating for professionals a much more convenient process. With so many people logging on to find love, you can now find lots of working singles at the touch of a button. Here's how to join them.
1. Sign up to a dating site for professionals
The best place to start your search for romance is the internet. Today, online dating is ubiquitous. Approximately 10 per cent of heterosexual people met their long-term partner online, according to Pew Research Center.
The key to getting online dating right is to choose a site or app that is tailored to your needs, rather than downloading the first one you come across.
Sites and apps that offer online dating for professionals can be tailored towards numerous factors. Some focus on education or political views, while others are devoted to facilitating long-term relationships to help you find your soulmate. The best dating websites for professional singles are designed to make your life easier.
On Telegraph Dating, the hard work is done for you via a two-way matching system. The criteria you've listed on your profile is used to search for potential partners, displaying them on your 'My Ideal Match' page if their criteria matches your personality and background. While the service is available to anyone over 18, many members have found this a helpful dating site for professionals over 50.
2. Create the perfect profile
Your online dating profile shouldn't be something you dash off while you're taking your tea break. Wait until you have a free evening or weekend and really get stuck in. List your interests, describe your lifestyle, and – most importantly – be realistic about what you're looking for and what you can offer.
Whether you're an ambitious go-getter seeking something casual and fun, or a busy CEO looking to make more time for a serious relationship, be upfront and honest. The same goes for any personality tests or questionnaires that you end up filling out.
Photo-wise, always aim to use something taken recently where your face is clearly displayed (preferably a solo rather than a group shot). If you can't find a good photo, enlist a trusted friend to come round and take some flattering shots.
3. Make time for your profile every day
Once you've set up your online dating profile don't let it gather dust. If you're serious about meeting someone you'll want to visit your account at least once a day, using your free time to check out your suggested matches, browse other members' profiles, reply to messages, and initiate conversations.
The good news is that you can easily fit this task around your work commitments – the odd five or 10 minutes here and there at lunch, on your commute, or at home in front of the TV will do
4. Look for someone with a compatible lifestyle
When you're checking out other profiles, consider how well your two lives might mesh. Even if you're using a service that suggests potential matches, you'll want to be judicious about who you end up messaging.
Let's say a suggested profile ticks every box when it comes to looks, interests and sense of humour – but their working hours or family commitments would limit the time you have together as a couple. In this instance, initiating a conversation could be a waste of time.
5. Don't rush in
There's no harm in choosing your matches carefully. As a busy professional, time is precious, so you don't want to find yourself sitting through too many fruitless dates.
Make sure you read someone's profile thoroughly before you agree to meet in person. There may be information towards the end of their profile that rules them out as a potential partner. Finding out that information on a first date is a waste of your time and theirs. Being selective is not the same as being fussy.
6. If online dating doesn't work out, try a professional matchmaker or dating agency
Online dating is highly popular among modern professionals – but it doesn't work for everyone. The good news is that there's another service that won't encroach on your working life: a professional dating agency.
Professional matchmaking has come a long way since its early days. Typically these services offer an initial consultation, after which your matchmaker begins the process of looking for matches and setting up dates. Often these services offer one-on-one coaching, with your personal matchmaker on hand to chat and give advice before dates.
High net worth individuals often use matchmaking services as an efficient and discreet way to seek romance. As the consultation process is so rigorous, the associated rates can be costly. However, it can be an ideal option for those with money to spend.
7. Commit to proper dates
Whether you've been set up via a matchmaker, or you've found someone special on a dating app, the next step is meeting in real life. As a professional with a busy schedule you might find it difficult to make time for dates, but it's vital that you do.
Plan ahead and make sure you set aside an afternoon or evening with no work commitments. Gaps in your diary may be scarce, but there's no point putting yourself out there if you're not willing to invest some of your free time.
When you're on a date, make sure you don't check your phone every 10 seconds. Put it on silent, stick it in your pocket, and don't take it out again until you've parted ways (or at least until they've popped to the loo). Work emails can wait!
8. Make the most of the smaller moments
When one or both people in a relationship are busy at work it can be hard to coordinate schedules. You should continue to make time for proper dates, planning ahead to make sure you have free evenings and weekends whenever possible.
If things go well and you develop a relationship, remember that a little compromise will be needed. If you want to successfully juggle career commitments and home life you'll need to work together.
It's important that you try to enjoy the little moments. If you're both booked solid for a week, try to snatch short periods of time to spend together – whether it's enjoying a short coffee break on a Saturday morning, or getting together for a quick lunch in the week.
Quality time doesn't have to mean spending hours together, especially when you're both career-oriented. If you are both hard-working and ambitious, you may see eye to eye.

I played golf with Tiger Woods but he was a ghost behind the scenes – his romance with Vanessa Trump surprised me
TIGER WOODS was a 'ghost' behind the scenes who never gave any clues about his wild lifestyle, according to a golfer who played with him. Two-time PGA Tour winner Brian Henninger also says he's surprised by Wood's blossoming romance with Vanessa Trump. 11 11 11 Henninger played with top stars including Woods, Phil Mickelson and Sir Nick Faldo. The American says Woods would cut an isolated figure among golfers and was so focused he could be intimidating. But Henninger, who also described Faldo as 'arrogant' and branded Jack Nicklaus a 'narcissist', said this attitude set him apart. Henninger told SunSport: 'Tiger Woods is not a person you're going to go and hang out with. 'He's not eating with you in the lunchroom. He's pleasant though. He'd say 'Hi Brian'. He knows a little bit about everybody, he does his research. 'I'll never forget the first time I met him. We were at the Western Open, we're in this fitness trailer, they were stretching us or something. 'He goes 'hey, I saw your Trojans got beat by Stanford the other night'. I mean, I've never met him. 'So I think he's one of those prepared guys in any situation. JOIN SUN VEGAS: GET £50 BONUS 'Behind the scenes, he was a ghost to most of us. We didn't really know about his life off the course. We know what the media shared with us, but I didn't really know that lifestyle. 'He was a natural show off. He had so much popularity and it's incredible. 11 'I didn't get to travel and own mansions, private jets and have Michael Jordan as my best friend…even though I'd love to be a fly on the wall for that stuff. 'But he didn't show signs on the golf course of being affected by any of it. 'Scottie Scheffler is coming along doing similar things. I don't know all the matrix behind it, but they are very close in terms of how many times they've won at a certain age and all the accomplishments. 'They can just turn it on and off. I mean, they get to the golf course and they're like different human beings." He added: 'Tiger could be intimidating to some extent. I played with him right at his peak in the early 2000s. 'It's so unique when you're with these people who are so different. They have skill sets beyond what you can kind of comprehend or define.' Woods was rocked by scandal in his prime, divorcing Swedish model Elin Nordegren in 2010 after allegations of multiple affairs. 11 11 Then in 2017, Woods pleaded guilty to reckless driving after he'd been found passed out in his car with prescription drugs and marijuana in his system. Now Woods is dating Vanessa Trump, the ex-wife of Donald Trump Jr, son of sitting US President Donald Trump. And Henninger says he's surprised by the romance but can see how it unfolded. He said: 'I was surprised to see Tiger dating Vanessa Trump. Even though in today's world, nothing surprises me anymore. 'But he lives in Florida, so I'm sure he's interacting with Donald Trump, who owns a few golf courses down there and stuff. 'Nothing surprises me with Tiger. I just kind of wish I knew. I like the drama, share it with us!' Henninger believes Scottie Scheffler is currently the best golfer in the world. He sees traits in the American he also saw among the greats he played with. In June, Nicklaus candidly told Scheffler not to get carried away with his recent success. 11 He said: 'If he is thinking about being the best and starts believing he's the best, pretty soon he starts scratching his ears out here like this, and that's death. Once you start to get a big head and believe you're too good, then you will get beat.' But Henninger could understand the comments. He branded Scheffler and Nicklaus as 'narcissistic', but hailed the trait as something vital for their success. Henninger added: 'Scheffler is different. I almost feel like he's playing for a different purpose, and he seems really balanced with his family, which is really important to him. 'He's made so much money in recent years yet he seems to be doing it for this focus on the process and the competition, not for the money, even though that's the byproduct of playing really well. 'They threw him in jail in the middle of a tournament last year, then he came out and shot 65, who does that? 'So he's got the resilience it takes to be number one in the world and takes responsibility for it. 'It takes a narcissistic person and Nicklaus is that person too, by the way, I've spent a little bit of time around him. These guys have big egos.' 11 11 Another golfer who had a big ego was Faldo, Henninger says, who now works as a commentator in golf. Henninger says Faldo was arrogant and recalled a time he demanded changes to his parking space. He said: 'Faldo is one of them, he's from over there (arrogant). He's intense, a lot of us are pretty uptight. 'To be honest with you, Greg Norman was super uptight, to the extent you don't really want to be around those people. 'He's one of the greatest players that ever lived. He's a big guy, he was very mechanical, so he had a really pretty swing. It was very methodical. But an example of Faldo's arrogance was when we were playing in the senior players' championship in Philadelphia five or six years ago. 'Because he's close to my last name, like F and H are close, he's parked right next to me and when I pull up early in the week, it says Sir Nick Faldo on his little sign by his car. 'It only took about 24 hours and it said, Sir Nick Faldo. That tells you the whole story."

Inside the dark side of female bodybuilding as the industry booms – from dehydration to drug scandals & shock deaths
BEYOND the chiselled physiques and unwavering dedication to fitness, there lies a deeper, darker side to female bodybuilding communities - with some willing to risk their lives to rule supreme over their beefy competitors. For many women, this high-stakes environment often extends far beyond the competitive stage, exposing them to threats from other rival contestants and serious health risks from extreme dehydration and deadly steroid abuse. 14 14 14 14 Surprisingly, not all female bodybuilders are chasing trophies or glory. For some, bodybuilding is a lifestyle, a statement, or even a livelihood. Since its first boom in the 1980s, female bodybuilding is seeing a second wave of popularity sparked by the rise of fitness influencers. Celebrities including former Page three girl Jodie Marsh, Dwayne Johnson, Teresa Giudice and Hugh Jackman have all admitted to either doing it, or giving it a go. Speaking previously to The Sun Newspaper of her buffed up look, Jodie Marsh said: "I don't give a s*** what they say. I feel sexier than I have for ten years. "I used to loathe my body but now I absolutely adore it.' However, more recently after ditching the lifestyle she gave a health up date claiming she's "fat but happier than ever." Back in 2018, American reality star Teresa explained that it was "the best" she had ever felt, while Dwayne Johnson and regularly spoken about the mental effort that is required. He often uses the phrase "blood, sweat, and respect". For amateur bodybuilder Mia Collins, bodybuilding has been a journey of self-discovery and discipline. She told the BBC: "You get out what you put in, everyday is an uphill battle with it. Bodybuilder dies aged 30 after collapsing during competition as horrified spectators look on "But the output at the end - you have so much pride in what you've achieved. So few people do it because it is so challenging." She continued: "So for me to focus on my health, my wellbeing and my muscular strength, it just means I'm hopefully going to be healthier down the line." However, the industry has seen its fair share of controversies and scandals, with extreme practices leading to heartbreaking consequences. In 2020, tragedy struck when young bodybuilder Jodi Vance, aged 20, died from extreme dehydration after using harmful supplements. Dehydration is widely used in bodybuilding in the final stages of competition prep. Contestants will manipulate water levels so that they can achieve a "dry" look that reveals every muscle and vein. During the final 12-24 hours before competitors step on stage, athletes dramatically cut water in-take in order to dehydrate the body. Bodybuilders will also do Cutting - which is a phase focused on reducing body fat to reveal muscle definition. 14 Athletes do this by eating at a calorie deficit while maintaining or even increasing protein intake to preserve muscle mass. Jodi had attended Arnold Schwarzenegger 's sports festival in Columbus, not as a competitor but to support her coaching students. Her coach, fitness influencer Justin Mihaly, revealed in an Instagram video that Jodi had made a fatal mistake by consuming two hazardous substances without his or her family's knowledge. A fat-burning drug which acts as a stimulant and a diuretic drug which causes increased passing of urine. The two counteracting drugs ultimately led to her fatal dehydration. Justin explained that Jodi, who had been experiencing health issues at the time, had shown interest in the fat-burning drug despite having no competitive reason to use it. In May, a study by Dr Marco Vecchiato, an expert in sports medicine from the University of Padova, found that pumping iron could leave you at greater risk of suddenly falling to your death, a major study of 20,000 bodybuilders has revealed. Researchers found those who had built extreme levels of muscle over their lifetime were twice as likely to die from sudden cardiac death, compared to the general population. On the other hand, professional bodybuilders who competed in events like 'Mr Olympia,' including figures such as Arnold Schwarzenegger, faced a fivefold increase in the risk of sudden death compared to those at an amateur level. Worryingly, nearly 40 per cent of all deaths among the bodybuilders examined were unexpected and linked to heart issues. The authors also suggested their figures could be an underestimation, as many deaths were listed as ' unknown'. Although many deaths are listed as 'unknown', the British Heart Foundation have warned that taking anabolic steroids is associated with high blood pressure and an increased risk of developing heart conditions such as left ventricular hypertrophy. According to a study led by Tim Piatkowski from Griffith University, women bodybuilders are 12 times more likely to use anabolic steroid - which is traditionally used by young male bodybuilders to build and repair muscle quickly - than the general female population, including recreational gym users. Despite it being illegal to possess anabolic steroids without a prescription, the study showed a four per cent rate of steroid consumption among women globally, higher than the 1.4 per cent last reported in 2014. But it comes with permanent side effects for women including loss of breasts, deepened voice, problems with periods, hair loss, swelling of the clitoris, paranoia, blood clots, liver failure, and heart attacks. In England, it's illegal to possess, import or export anabolic steroids if it's believed you're supplying or selling them. This includes giving them to friends. The penalty is an unlimited fine, or even a prison sentence of up to 14 years. Anabolic steroids, often associated with young male bodybuilders for their muscle-building and recovery benefits, are becoming increasingly popular among women in the bodybuilding community. Recent research highlights a global steroid use rate of 4% among women, a noticeable rise from the 1.4% reported in 2014. 14 14 14 14 Dark community emerges But it's not only troubling training methods that leave these female Adonis' at risk, a dark community where women are willing to do anything to get a competitive edge over their rivals has emerged. Earlier this month, the bodybuilding world was rocked by the death of a beauty queen, Luz María Barrera Agatón, aged 36, who was found lifeless in a hotel swimming pool while holidaying with her family. Luz, who had been staying at the Coco Resort & Villas in Motul, in Cancun, when she died, was crowned Fitness Champion at the 2017 Mister Mexico bodybuilding contest, won the bikini category at the Mr Olympia Amateur competition held in Spain and was crowned queen of the Motul Carnival in 2024. Police have not ruled out foul play, and local reports revealed she had received sinister threats just two weeks prior, when a menacing banner was hung outside her gym in Merida, Yucatán. Luz reportedly removed the sign herself without informing authorities, but cops are investigating these incidents and whether they could be connected to her death. This was not the first time she had faced such threats; back in 2017, she and her former partner, Chiri Roberto, a state prosecutor, were seemingly targeted by two thugs and threatened. Yo-yo dieting, often seen in bulking and cutting phases, can negatively impact general wellbeing and, for many women, their menstrual cycles Daniel Herman, a NASM nutritionist and founder of Bio-Synergy Last year, Johanna Pérez, who ran the Johafit nutrition and trainer health pages on Facebook and Instagram and racked up tens of thousands of followers in the process, passed away just a few days after her 35th birthday. She broke new ground as one of the first women to compete in bodybuilding tournaments in her native Panama. During her career, she had scooped up several awards, before moving into the world of content creation. Back in 2022, a Washington Post investigation found that officials - , including J.M. Manion, whose father, Jim - founder and president of International Fitness and Bodybuilding Federation [IFBB] Pro League and the National Physique Committee [NPC] - of bodybuilding's two premier federations have been sexually exploiting female athletes for decades. Their report found that the females were being pressured for them to pose for nude photographs, posting those photos to soft-core pornography sites. It also found that at times, the officials manipulated contest results in favour of cooperative competitors. According to The Washington Post, for more than 15 years, J.M. Manion had been running amateur and professional bodybuilding contests for decades. One of J.M.'s sites, Fitness Divas, bluntly stated: 'Your Favorite Fitness Athletes …Naked!' Jenn Gates, who won the figure category at the prestigious Olympia contest in 2007, was managed by J.M, and earned enough sponsorship money to quit her nursing job. She graced the covers of fitness magazines, and claims that J.M asked her to take off her bikini top and bottom for photos. However, Jenn refused but later learned from Post reporters that her swimsuit photos had been featured alongside nude female competitors on one of his pornography sites. She explained that she "never consented to having" her pictures on a soft-porn site. Aly Garcia, a bikini competitor who abandoned the spot in 2017 after realising that she would "never get a top win" if she didn't have sex with the judges or promoters, also claimed to have refused to do nude photos. Lawyers for Manion and others said they emphatically denied "any and all wrongdoing." 'Toxic, unhealthy and unrealistic' Daniel Herman, a NASM nutritionist and founder of Bio-Synergy, has spent 28 years in the industry and previously worked with organisations like Pure Elite and the NPA (Natural for Life Bodybuilding). He explains that the number of women competing, particularly in fitness and bikini categories, has risen dramatically. While he supports anything that encourages consistent exercise, he warns of the potential health risks associated with bodybuilding competitions. He explains: 'Yo-yo dieting, often seen in bulking and cutting phases, can negatively impact general wellbeing and, for many women, their menstrual cycles. 'If someone participates in multiple competitions over several years, these effects can be compounded.' He continues: 'For some there is also the additional pressure of using steroids which can lead to further issues. 'The WADA, World Anti-Doping Association says 'steroids may enhance performance in the short term, but they come at a great cost: organ damage, reproductive disorders, and psychological effects like aggression and addiction.' 'It is imperative as with any competitive sport to get support from experts in nutrition and training to mitigate these potential risks, and choose supplements that are science backed, safe and efficacious to support.' Dr Brendon Stubbs, a leading researcher in physiotherapy at King's College London, also confirmed an increase in uptake of the sport among women in the last 10 years. He said: "I think we've had a massive issue with gendered expectations or roles placed upon women particularly.' Ultimately, while female bodybuilding can be a source of empowerment and achievement, it is crucial for participants to have expert guidance in nutrition and training, as well as access to safe, science-backed supplements. 14 Without these measures, the risks can outweigh the rewards, leaving many women vulnerable to physical, emotional, and even life-threatening consequences. Taking to Reddit, one person remained anonymous while sharing their experience within the industry. They explained how they think the body building culture is 'toxic, unhealthy and unrealistic' and noted how social media and online communities have only made it worse. The social media user also explained that most of the people they've met or spoken to 'aren't even competing, nor serious enough about their hobby to warrant copious amounts of money they spend on protein supplements or food.' The post ended with: 'Body building culture has become toxic, obsessive and saturated with people with unrealistic expectations and uneducated uninformed opinions. 'I genuinely believe body dysmorphia disorder is at an all time high.' Daniel adds: 'Another issue is that there is some politics, placings are subjective, and judging criteria can vary depending on federation, category, and even region. 'Some competitors report that success often hinges on more than just physical condition - including coach affiliations, politics, and how well a competitor 'fits the mould' of the current trend in body types.' Participants are assessed on factors such as muscle development, balance, overall conditioning, and stage presence. Judges rank competitors by comparing them to one another, with the winner being the athlete who achieves the lowest combined score. Various divisions, such as bodybuilding, physique, or bikini, focus on highlighting different aspects of an ideal physique. But despite this, the bodybuilding industry is on the rise - especially for women. It's been reported that this year, female bodybuilding is undergoing a significant transformation. This includes a rise in participation, new competition categories, and a wider cultural acceptance of strength and empowerment. With more women embracing strength training and bodybuilding, the sport continues to evolve, presenting diverse opportunities for athletes across the globe. Rimini Miloro, 26, from Burton on Trent believes that the industry is competitive but is a sport where everyone 'understands each other.' 'Very competitive sport' She says: 'Bodybuilding is a very competitive sport. 'It's not just about stepping up on stage but it's all about your daily actions away from the stage also. 'It's also a very individual sport meaning everything you do is on you and will also determine the look you bring to the stage. I wouldn't say bodybuilding is bitchy at all. 'From my experience it's a community where everyone understands each other. 'We have all worked so hard to be able to develop the physiques we bring to the stage and it's just so nice to share that with people who understand every step you've taken because they've done the same. 'We are doing the work daily. Not just when it's time to prep and get on stage. None of us look stage lean all the time either. 'In order to grow a decent amount of bodyfat has to be put on. 'We need to get strong in order to perform better in the gym, we need to fuel our body with good quality foods and we can't do that trying to hold onto our abs all the time. 'Bodybuilding is all about what you do in the background before getting the tan and showcasing your physique to the judges.' The introduction of the Fit Model category by the NPC and IFBB is indeed an exciting step forward for female bodybuilding, offering a more accessible and inclusive platform for women. This new category prioritises a natural and athletic aesthetic, focusing on balance, stage presence, and overall beauty, rather than extreme muscularity. It bridges the gap between fitness modelling and traditional bodybuilding, providing women with an alternative way to showcase their dedication to fitness and well-being. The upcoming 2025 IFBB World Bodybuilding Championships and Annual Congress in Khobar, Saudi Arabia, promises to be a pivotal moment for the sport. With athletes from around the world coming together, this event promises to showcase the growing diversity and innovation in female bodybuilding. As the sport embraces inclusivity and holistic health, 2025 is set to be a landmark year, redefining its future. Female bodybuilding is not just evolving in competition - it's breaking barriers, inspiring empowerment, and uniting a global community. And although their is scandal with drug taking in the industry, Rimini believes it's changing for the better. She says: "I've seen people unfortunately pass away due to diuretic use which is actually now not a popular protocol to do due to the risks of that enhancement. "Both the natural and assisted bodybuilding world for females is at an all-time high - it's a challenge many want to succeed in. "I feel the glitz and glam is definitely the main attraction for some girls and that's great. "However, it's super important for girls to understand what comes with that look on the stage for them to see if prepping for 20-30 weeks is worth potentially what is around 5-10 minutes on stage. "Social media has had such a positive impact on the bodybuilding scene - especially the natural side. "But it's an industry which teaches you mental resilience from pushing yourself on a daily basis." 14
