Readers response: What are your thoughts on online dating or dating apps for seniors?
When it comes to dating, there are many ways people find their perfect person, and for many that happens online.
We asked our readers what their thoughts are on an online dating app for seniors, and the responses were overwhelming. Here's what they said.
Kristeen Bon - I tried it for a bit, but found the men to be so unrealistic in their expectations. What they say they want and what they REALLY want are poles apart.
Helen Smith - It works great but men really need to look in a mirror now and then.
Sue Rowley - Personally, I’m happy on my own, but if you’re looking for a partner where else is there to meet someone? Pub, supermarket, dog walking? Not many options really, especially when you’re older.
Jenny Gordon - Would not consider it. Would prefer to stay single than see how friends and relatives have been affected by using them.
Ali Veldman - Risky at any age, in my opinion.
Diane Derby - I’d never entertain one. I like being by myself, plus two much catfishing and ghosting to be able to find a decent type.
Margaret Godfrey - Tried it. A dismal failure in a small population. What is the point of men interstate responding when you live a plane flight away?
John Coffey - Met my late partner online, and had a great 10 years. It can be a minefield though.
