Dating over 60

Dating Over 60 in the South West

Many members are in their sixties and seventies, looking for companionship, a relationship or simply someone to share days out with. Here is how to go about it.

Companionship counts

Not everyone over 60 is looking for the same thing. Some want a partner, some want a companion for walks, meals and trips out, and some are not sure yet. All of those are welcome here, and saying which one you are on your profile helps you find people who want the same.

After a bereavement or a long marriage

If you are dating for the first time in decades, go at whatever pace feels right. It is perfectly normal to browse for a while before sending a message, and it is fine to take a break and come back.

Getting comfortable online

You do not need to be good with technology. Creating a profile takes a few minutes, and you can ask a family member or friend to help with a photo. Keep conversations on the site until you are comfortable.

A word on scams

Never send money or share bank details with someone you have met online, however genuine they seem. Anyone who asks is not who they claim to be. Report them and stop replying. Our safety page explains the warning signs.

Take a look, there is no rush

Joining, building a profile and browsing are free, and you do not need a card to look around.
