You can find relationships with other seniors online regardless of where you reside. “For anyone who hasn’t dated in a while,” Kevin Darné, author of “Online Dating: Avoid the Catfish!: How to Date Online Successfully,” advises, “it is preferable for them to clearly define what their dating goals are and do some study before plunging into online dating.” You should also think about which senior dating sites to join. “In addition to the major well-known online dating sites and apps, there are a broad selection of specialty online dating sites and apps these days,” Darné explains.
The best dating websites and apps for seniors are:
- Match.
- eHarmony.
- Senior Friends Date.
- So Syncd.
- Silver Singles.
Here’s a breakdown of what to expect from each senior dating service in terms of cost, senior features, and other benefits.
Match
This service was a pioneer in the online dating market when it originally began in 1995. It now has a presence in 24 countries and offers websites in 15 languages. The sheer amount of Match users may aid in the creation of greater dating prospects. While Match is open to all adults, you can specify your preferred age range, as well as other criteria, to receive a list of people with whom you might want to begin a relationship. You’ll also be notified about upcoming events in your area where you might meet new people. The site is free, but you’ll need to subscribe for additional services, which start at $15.99 each month. Match is a game that can be downloaded from Google Play and the App Store.
eHarmony
This service, which was founded in 2000, caters to those over the age of 50 who are looking to date. You may sign up for free by providing some personal information and submitting a photo. A compatibility matching method narrows the field to match you with a small group of people who might be a good match for you. A membership, which runs from $35.90 to $65.90 per month, is available if you want additional services like direct messages. eHarmony is available on Google Play and the App Store.
Senior Friends Date
This site, which is geared toward seniors, requires you to register, fill up a profile, and then upload numerous photos. It connects you with people who live in your area, making it easier to meet in person. A free messaging service is also available. Senior Friends Date does not have a mobile app.
So Syncd
While the software is open to all people, the system’s unique approach may appeal to elders. All members take a Myers-Briggs personality test, after which they are paired with other Myers-Briggs personality types who are compatible with them. The fundamental functions are free, but you’ll have to pay to have access to more. Both Google Play and the App Store have apps available.
