Can I be incognito on it as my sneaky, younger work colleagues are often laughing at what they find on Tinder I was hidden. I've never used online dating, but I have a friend 55 who used classic fm dating with some success. I didn't know you could be hidden on Tinder! I would choose to be, because I know people who look through the listings for people they might know.

Your guide to the most popular digital spots to find your special someone
I don't think it is anymore. When I looked at the blokes on there a few sites ago it was all a bit meh. God I tried ourtime, worst ever. Seems like its full of the dregs left who haven't aged well at all. Gave up after 6 months. You might as well do a site for any age, sites put the range you want into a site. If just over 50, someone a couple of years younger who might be interested would not be on ourtime over not old enough - though as owned by match, you can agree to be put on that platform too which helps a bit.
Yes, I know someone who has a life time membership because Another who basically told me he joined because he was bored and could just fill in time.

Dating sites for the over 50’s
Global conglomerates. I worked with women who had success on dating sites and my neighbour has been living with her date for over ten years. Go with your gut. Just meeting for a coffee is a good place to start. Be aware that once the sites get their claws into you, they might flood you with emails months after you cease paying. They are looking for relationship weakness or relationship ending so you will hopefully sign up again and pay. I met dp on ourtime, he was my third date off there but I'd been doing different types of dating sites for a while.
I was 51 then and thought I'd like to be a hot young thing on a site for once I tried fitness singles I honestly think dating of the men barely leave the sofa on that site, it was verging on comical.
Friend of mine got sent dick pics on Our Over You would think maybe men would have grown up by that age wouldnt you.
