online dating attracts the after 50 crowd
What did we ever do before the internet? The traditional ways of meeting people, through work, at church, or introductions from friends are better than nothing, but the new online dating sites make things so much easier. If you want to meet a person with similiar tastes, interests, and goals the online matchmaking services can’t be beat.
It seems more and more often I hear of people telling of their success with online personal ads. Here is one story I found while browsing Yahoo news today:
“Susan Gladstone’s moment came when she turned 50. Divorced, with two children, she was getting tired of asking friends to fix her up and being told they just couldn’t think of anyone. And so, she turned to online dating.
Two and a half years and dozens of dates later, Gladstone, an event planner in Miami, hasn’t yet found her perfect soul mate. But she’s had lots of enjoyable dinner dates, met fascinating people from around the globe, and to her delight has made a number of lasting friendships.”
