Over 50...
I wonder if this is the proper website for me. I am over 50 years old, and I have noticed that many of my matches are so much younger than me.
But if you're SERIOUS about finding a partner in your age range, it has been my experience that eHarmony does a MUCH better job of matching you with really compatible people (in quantity) than any of the free sites do. I've had several really good relationships (dated/intimate for many months) from there, and am now in one that shows real and growing potential. Of course, as with ANY dating site it's a "kiss a lot of frogs" deal ... I went through literally hundreds of matches to get those several relationships. Got several really good friends along the way too ... which I've done here as well.
But this site's demographics are really against us older folks. There are women here in the over-50 set, but they are hard to find and even harder to date and get to know. If you really want to get matched up, I'd suggest one of the pay sites, and EH is by far my favorite of those.

The advantage that men my age have over me, is that men my age looking for women my age are not going to have to worry about preschool offspring, unless a woman is rearing her grandchildren.
