Boomers and Seniors are looking for love in all the right places these days, namely ONLINE! With 30% of an estimated 85 million boomers being single, 63% are actively dating. The internet has certainly widened the playing field with many boomers turning to online dating to reach a broader range of potential partners they would not ordinarily have access to meet. A deterrent for some is the cost associated with joining a dating or match making service which is usually a monthly fee. Well not anymore, Retirement Listing Service has now introduced a free online dating section for senior citizens only. Seniors can find anything from activity groups and partners to friends and long term relationships all for free and within their community.Online dating connects people who share similar interests, age, activities and core beliefs. Your preferences, likes and dislikes can all be noted in your profile, to single you out as that unique individual just possibly tailor made for that “Mr. or Ms. Right”. Along with that profile, an up-to-date picture of yourself is a must. In fact, many people will openly state, “No pic, no date”. It is not that boomers are shallow, they merely want to view the whole package and feel that if they are honestly representing themselves, then they deserve the same courtesy.There are many seniors who would be thrilled to connect with a potential mate but have declined to get into the world of online dating, viewing it as an act of desperation, when on the contrary, it is actually a proactive step in the direction of fine tuning their search for a relationship that has a better than average chance of success.The list of online sites is growing rapidly for the 50 plus crowd with ones aptly named such as SeniorMatch, PrimeSingles, SeniorPeopleMeet and Canadian sites, Lavalife Prime and eHarmony. Online dating is a wonderful way to dip your toe into the pool of potential partners. Another widely used resource is free online personals. A quick scan through Craigslist shows just how many people utilize the free posting idea across North America. Well now seniors and boomers have a similar website and it is only for them. Retirement Listing Service has introduced senior community classifieds for the growing senior population. Within this online community, one can find an excellent personals section which can help those who are looking for that special someone in their area. From activity partners and groups to seniors dating events and long term relationships one can find it all and it does not cost a penny. It will be interesting to see if those in the senior community latch on to this idea like that of the younger adults.Ultimately, it will be that first face to face meeting that determines if you both will sink or swim together. Take the plunge! The rest of your life is waiting. So why not try a free personal at Retirement Listing Service and see how it works out, you have nothing to lose and potentially everything to gain. Sounds like a win-win for everyone!
