I have been divorced since 2014. I entered the online dating world after being faithfully married for 30 years. Yikes!
Guys, if you can stay married…do! There tons of beautiful women in their 50’s. Even some in their early 60’s are gorgeous. But after roughly 5 years of being in the online dating world, I have to say that I have just about seen it all. I have been in a few relationships that I thought were golden, then poof…something happens…things change and the whole thing runs off the rails.
There are a lot of women out there with a lot of issues. Some are clinically mentally ill. So, if you are contemplating entering the online dating world, be prepared. You will go out on countless one time dates (I call them meet and greets since they aren’t really dates). It can get tiring so take a break when you need one.
As far as the dating sites go, there are free and paid. The best free ones for me are, Plenty of Fish, OkCupid, Bumble, Tinder and Hinge. I am sure there are more but those I have tried. The best paid ones for me are Match and Zoosk. Zoosk seems to have a slight edge over Match right now.
To wrap this post up, unlike people in their 20’s and 30’s, we folks that are in our 50’s are burning daylight here. We don’t have years and years to look for our perfect mate. Hopefully, I will find mine soon.
Stay tuned for musings!
