That same study from Pew reported that about a quarter of single-and-looking adults over 50 have used online dating. So what’s a single lady or gentleman to do? While 72-year-old Gerry Turner of “The Golden Bachelor” was able to meet 22 eligible bachelorettes just by signing up for a reality show, not everyone is willing to jump through the same hoops. According to Pew Research Center, 62% of adults over the age of 50 are single, so for those seeking out a special someone, there are quite a few fish.
adults are single and, undoubtedly, some of them are looking for a partner for companionship, travel or even love. But for those who don’t want to go on TV to find love, online dating sites could be the right move. There is a lot of buzz over “ The Golden Bachelor,” a new reality show focused on dating in the golden years.
