SENIOR SINGLES


Senior singles live differently in today’s society than they have in the past.  Many years ago these seniors were sometimes ridiculed as “old maids” and the like.  Senior singles today are much different, due to our changing world.  Often they are well-traveled, educated baby boomers who have a zest for life and the new things it has to offer.  Computer literate and comfortable using new technology, these young-at-heart adults stay connected wherever they are.  No longer content to live their lives being babysitters or living with grown children, these forward-thinking adults have become an important part of our ever-expanding society.  Not afraid to travel alone, daring to explore new horizons and try new things, they routinely defy the stereotype we have come to expect of those who are middle-aged.

Senior singles are loosely categorized as people over fifty who live alone.  Although many are still in the working world well into their sixties and seventies, many of the over-fifty crowd opt to take early retirements, allowing them to travel and have new experiences.  While they love the closeness of family and friends, senior singles find themselves finally able to expand their horizons in ways that they had never imagined.  Many move to other countries to live, some take on new careers as consultants in their area of expertise or even begin new careers, choosing something they have always wanted to do.  These senior singles are happy, contented with their lives, and dare to explore the world on their own terms.  When they choose to date they are confident, interesting individuals and are looking for someone to spend time with who is not only fun to be with, but a fascinating companion as well.
