How Does Online Dating Over 40 Work?

Think of it as being introduced by a very well connected friend who never forgets a name. You create a profile with a few words about yourself, what you enjoy and who you would like to meet, then add a photo or two. Smiling helps. So does a picture taken this decade.

Then you browse singles over 40 as near to home or as far afield as you like, and other members can find you in the same way. When someone catches your eye, upgrade to premium and say hello. There is no rush. You can take a week to reply, or ten minutes. Nobody is keeping score.

Is 40 Dating Right For Me?

If you are single, over 40 and would like someone to share more of your life with, then yes. Our members come from all walks of life. Some are divorced or separated, some have grown up children, some have young ones, and some have simply been too busy building a career to look until now.

What they share is a wish to meet someone at a similar stage of life, who understands that weekends might involve a football run, an elderly parent or a well earned lie in. If that sounds familiar, you will feel right at home.

Finding Your Over 40s Dating Match

As the saying goes "You have to be in it to win it" and the same can be said for the dating game. Some people worry online dating will be complicated, which can put them off for no good reason. In fact, using our service couldn't be easier. You can join using a computer, tablet or your mobile phone, once joined, you can use any of these to log in and collect and send your messages, the experience will be the same on each.

Once you've signed up, it's a great idea to write a short profile about yourself, for our other members to read and get to know you before they get in touch. Don't worry, this doesn't have to be your life story, just introduce yourself, maybe talk a little about the things you like to do and the places you like to go. If you have a large family, you could give them a mention too. Don't worry, our members aren't expecting to meet James Bond or Lady Gaga, they're looking for ordinary singles, just like you. We encourage you to add a photo to your profile too, which you can take with your mobile phone. Adding a photo helps your profile stand out from the crowd. Smiley photos get even more Smile.

Once you're happy with your profile, you can use our easy search tool to find other members either locally, or maybe a little further away. Now that you've found somebody you would like to meet, why not send them a pleasant message and see what happens from there. Good luck.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it free to join?

Yes. Joining is free, and so is creating your profile, adding photos and browsing members. You can take your time, look around and get a feel for who is out there before you decide anything. When you find someone you would like to talk to, you can upgrade to premium to send and reply to messages. There is no pressure to upgrade, and your free profile stays in place either way.

Is it too late to start dating in my forties?

Not at all. Plenty of people meet their partner in their forties, and many find it easier than dating in their twenties. You know yourself better, you know what matters to you, and you can usually spot a good match much sooner. Lots of our members are starting again after a long relationship, so you will be in good company.

Will there be singles near me?

Our members live all over the UK, from big cities to small villages. As soon as you join, we show you the members who live closest to you, so you can see straight away who is nearby. If you would like to cast the net wider, just search by town, county or region, or widen your search to the whole country. You decide how far is too far.

Can I use 40 Dating on my phone?

Yes. 40 Dating works on your phone, tablet or computer, and there is nothing to download. Log in from whichever is handy and your profile and messages will be waiting for you. Many members browse on the sofa in the evening and reply on their lunch break. Use whatever suits you.

Is my information kept private?

Your email address and phone number are never shown on your profile, so other members can only contact you through the site. You choose which photos to add and how much to say about yourself. If and when you decide to share more, that is entirely up to you, and you can take things at whatever pace feels comfortable.

What should I write in my profile?

Keep it friendly and honest. A few lines about what you enjoy, where you like to spend your weekends and the kind of person you hope to meet is plenty. Mention the things that make you smile, whether that is a long walk, a good box set or a Sunday roast. It is a hello, not a CV, and you can change it whenever you like.
