Where and how to meet someone in 40s

Hi I wondered what people thought of this. My DB is 42 unmarried has a couple of relationships behind him and absolutely no self confidence when it comes to romance. He has a stressful albeit fairly good income job here but reckons the hours and effect of eating up his life aren't worth it. He has am opportunity through inheritance to live mortgage free in a more rural area in Ireland well small ish village but confessed he is worried he'll be isolated although there are cities within 1/2 hours.But he is too stressed here to enjoy any of his life let alone dating. So I am telling him he should try. He has a profile on match.com ready to go but won't put a photo on it as he thinks it will put people off! It won't, but not having one will imo. I myself have recently resolved a distance relationship myself in a good way so he incorrectly thinks I have all the answers.
Anyway see what you think.

er- he could get all sorts of chancers approaching him! Block and ignore. It's a dating site not a chat forum:)

And people aren't going to waste time chatting to someone with no pic. You wouldn't sit in the pub and talk to an unknown behind a wall would you?:)

Let him sort himself out with old and profiles!:)

Thanks blood. He never ever used the word "hideous"btw I think it just came up on this thread. And he is anything but, just not very self-confident, like many people.DD wouldn't of course do anything to upset her uncle whom she loves and just wants to see happy.
