I know a lot of single people in their 30s, 40s, 50s and 60s who are looking for love...
They are looking for a date or a potential mate and do not want to go to nightclubs as they do not drink...
Where should they go to find love?
Where have you gone to find love?
Did you find it?
What worked best for you?
I would appreciate any recommendations you can give me of good sites, places, activities, etc.
And any personal stories that can give hope to these people.
Thanks.

I personally feel that love happens and we cannot make it happen according to our choice. Well we can reach out to like minded people through socialising and eventually get to decide if it's love or not.
1. networking through internet: this is the easiest since you can get to chat and know each other before actually reaching out for the person physically.
2. singles' night out: you can arrange or attend a party where all single friends and their single friends can mingle
3. dinner dating: this is a in thing and very classy. Some bodies organise this type of dating where all the established, posh eligible bachelor and spinsters socialise. The host should be a good one who usually introduces the ppl
4. profile dating: this is bit open and outrageous since we get to match our profiles, likes and dislikes and hang out with the similar minded people. But i feel, this is more of short term and fun.
Thanks.

I found my boyfriend on the internet. He sent me a message on myspace and I like what he said and what his profile said so we started talking and talked for two weeks before we met in person. When we did it was like love at first sight.

Though I am still single, I am not really looking for someone as of now. If there's a chance that she'd come for me, then I would be thankful. I think I have gotten tired in looking for love, a failed relationship can be draining and traumatic at the same time. I think that's what is holding me back now, I just let them come to me instead of me looking for them..

Soulist,
I think you are right on when you saying being natural works... of course using the net helps.

Love doesn't always have to be romantic. There's love everywhere, it's just that it's not always romantic.
I suppose senior citizens could meet online through social networking websites. Once they've made first contact, parks and public spaces would be pretty comfortable. These are suitable for all ages, so even people in their 30s and 40s could avail of the same.

It is true about love being everywhere... I have seen that for myself.
So online meetings followed by first contacts in parks and public places... Thanks. I appreciate your response.
Wishing you much love in your life and much joy as well.

You were lucky to find him as I know that you loved him a lot and he you...
I am hoping that you enjoy what you read and that you have fun at those church functions.

Good question. I am in a new city and that is hard to know. I will be interested in reading other posts for suggestions.
I have tried internet dating. And that has been interesting, exhausting and disappointment. I did find love, but it left. It would have had we met on the street too.

Hugs to you... Hoping more people post things that will help all singles out.
Wishing you the best in your search for Mr. Right rather than Mr. Wrong. Hpping that whoever you meet will be the best for you and will treat you like a queen, with much love and respect.

I have heard these same stories and at least one of the responders to this discussion stated the same thing. Thanks for posting.
