 Online dating isn't just for the young but also for the young at heart. People of all ages have jumped on the bandwagon. Whatever your age you can find a dating service that's right for you. There are online dating services designed specifically for those age forty and over, for those fifty and over and even for those sixty and above such as SilverSingles.com, Senior FriendFinder and PrimeSingles.net.
After many years of marriage people may suddenly find themselves newly single due to divorce or they may have lost their spouse through illness or accident. Online dating sites such as these can help bring lonely widows and widowers together in an online environment that allows them to connect with others who can understand and relate to their circumstances.
 Those who divorce after years of being in a relationship then suddenly find themselves alone often realize that it can be very difficult to get back out there and make social connections. Many older people, especially women, aren't comfortable with the social scene and online dating sites provide them with a discreet alternative. Online dating sites, especially those geared toward their own age groups provide them with the freedom of meeting friends and/or love interests in a subtle and comfortable manner. They can look through profiles and make contact with whomever they choose all from the comfort of their own homes.
Online dating for seniors is on the rise and continues to grow at a quick pace. Senior dating has seen its share of success just as other niche dating sites have and some success stories have resulted in wedded bliss. Romance isn't just for the youthful and neither is online dating.
