About My Senior Dating. For grown-ups who still get butterflies.

We’re a dating site for people over 50 in the US, the UK, Canada and Australia. Not a waiting room, not a self-help course. A place to meet someone, have a laugh and see where it goes.

Why we built it

Most dating sites get the over-50s wrong

The big apps were built for twenty-five-year-olds with time to burn. Most "senior" sites went the other way: big warnings, small print, and a tone that assumes you need help crossing the road.

Both miss the point. If you’re over 50, you’ve run a household, a career, a few crises and probably a barbecue for forty. You can handle a first date. What you want is a site that’s easy to read, upfront about what it costs, and full of people your own age who are up for it.

So that’s what we made.

What we believe

Five things we’ll stick to

  1. You’re not fragile. We won’t talk to you like you are.

    No lectures, no hand-holding, no ten-point lists of dos and don’ts. You’ve been on a date before. We keep the advice short and the tone grown-up.

  2. Your pace is the right pace. Even if that’s fast.

    Message tonight or next week. Meet for coffee on Friday or keep chatting for a month. There’s no countdown on anything you do here.

  3. Prices in plain numbers.

    Every membership is listed openly, in your own currency, on our prices page, with a clear note on which plans renew.

  4. Easy on the eyes.

    Big, clear text and big buttons on our pages. Want it bigger still? Tap the A A A at the top. Reading glasses entirely optional.

  5. Chemistry is your department.

    We bring the room and the people. The spark, the jokes and the second date are all yours.

Who it’s for

Fifty, sixty, seventy and counting

In your fifties

Still working, maybe newly single, definitely not done. Dating over 50

In your sixties

More time, better stories, and a diary you finally control. Dating over 60

Seventy and beyond

Company, conversation, someone to take to the theatre — or a lot more than that. Dating over 70

We write for four countries, and each one has its own page: the USA, the UK, Canada and Australia.

How it works

Three steps. No homework.

1

Create your profile

A few photos and a few lines about you. Take five minutes or fifty.

2

Have a look around

Browse profiles and check your daily suggestions, picked using things like age range, distance and what you’re looking for.

3

Say hello

Send a message when someone catches your eye. Reply when it suits you.

Want the details? Everything you get is on our features page.

Staying safe

Flirt freely. Keep your wallet closed. Real interest wants a coffee, not your bank details.

Behind the scenes

A small site with a big network behind it

My Senior Dating is part of an international dating network: more than 100 million members across our network, over 20 years of experience running dating sites, and moderation and support around the clock, every day of the year.

Here, though, you’ll be meeting the over 50s. That’s rather the point.

About our photos

The faces on these pages aren’t members

The photos on our public pages are licensed stock images, chosen because they look like the kind of afternoon we hope you’ll have. The people in them are models, not members.

Inside, every profile photo belongs to the member who uploaded it, and it’s checked by our moderators. If you ever see your own photo used without your consent, tell us through the support form (“Images used without consent”).
