In prior generations most people thought they were marrying for keeps. Now it is estimated that a good 50-60% of all marriages end in divorce. In this day and age it is nothing to get married several times with kids from more than one spouse and large extended families.
As Boomers approach their 60’s and 70’s many have found themselves alone, through divorce or death of a spouse. Since most people don’t want to grow old by themselves, boomers find themselves back in the dating scene, which now is very much different then when we first dated. Dating, particularly at an older age, and if you have been out of that ‘scene’ for a long time, can be frightening.
Fear not!
Connecting online gives you a chance to slowly get to know someone, hey…a lot of someones! You don’t have to do anything until you feel comfortable. As you spend time talking with people, getting to know them, you will find that you become more and more confident about yourself and taking a chance at love again. One of the best ways, besides being set-up by a friend, is online dating.
There are many online dating sites for Boomers. Go have a look!
