This coming Monday 29th August, (which is also a Bank Holiday in the UK), there will be a ‘Free Read’ available to all members of Cheekyfifty.

So this means that is you have messages waiting for you from other single members of Cheekyfifty over fifties dating you can read them just like a premium member and get the contacts of other singles looking to date pretty much for nothing. Enjoy the offer this August Bank Holiday.

Hopefully you have been enjoying all that Cheekyfifty has to offer as a member or are considering joining us for some great senior dating opportunities. There is however an awkward age group for whom finding the right singles dating site can be a frustrating and unrewarding experience, so we now offer an exciting dating service for older men and women looking for love.

You guessed it, we are talking about that limbo age between 39 and 51 where as singles looking for love and friendship we don’t quite know where we fit in on a dating web site.

Just how we feel about looking for a companion and what kind of singles dating we hope to procure depends on other factors such as lifestyle, how well we have withstood the onset of passing time and many other issues.

For example a youngish 39 year old who leads an active healthy lifestyle may still prefer the company of younger men or women, indeed if they are lucky to look young themselves you could be hard pushed to tell the difference.

Obviously appearance and needs can lean in the other direction, so its a frustrating age group for many, are we old, neither young nor old, somewhere sitting in between perhaps, you get the picture.

If you fall into this singles dating category and many people do then we recognise that over fifties dating may not be the place for you at all, nor is young singles dating the best place to look for romance either.

To this end we offer an alternative dating service for those soul mate searchers that sit in that sticky limbo age group between their late thirties and early fifties. We call it OlderandSingle and its bursting with slightly older (but not over the hill) singles looking for a fresh energetic dating vibe and rewarding online dating experience.

So if you are just that little bit older, a shade too old to call yourself really young and of course way too young to be old ( wow that sticks to the tongue ) then join OlderandSingle, its free to join and if you like what you see you can access our premium features for older singles for a very small monthly fee.

Take a road test first though and see if our new older singles dating service is for you, as with all our dating sites there is no obligation, no fuss; just scores of exciting older singles who could be looking to date you!

So take a look at OlderandSingle dating for older singles here.

What started with the iPhone has continued with a rapid pace of progress leading to new portable media devices such as the recent Ipad 2 and the Blackberry Playbook.

Well yes and no, if you are looking for a classic romantic dating experience then believe me its here to be had. Thing is we are not in our twenties anymore, most of us have nothing to prove and we just probably do not have the same energy levels either.

Valentines day like other seasonal events such as Halloween has perhaps become a little over commercialised. Yet while the shops on the high street may be trying their hardest to part you from your money we can pause and think about what Valentines day really means for us as members. It doesn’t have to mean spending lots of money on gifts and flowers ( although I am certain they would be appreciated, ) rather Valentines is a real opportunity to tell someone that you may have seen on Cheekyfifty that you like them, or have feelings for them and really show your romantic streak.

So as the big day approaches, login and be sure to send some messages of affection, if you were putting it off before, there is never a better time to reach out to other members seeing friendship or companionship. Taking the time to write a kind, thoughtful message particularly around Valentines day costs nothing and really could be the start of something amazing.

If you haven’t logged in to the Cheekyfifty members area for a while make sure you do, there are many new members online with January being so busy. Enjoy February and make the most of this special romantic time of year!

January is bleak and grey for some but for others its represents a great time to find new friendship, love and affection.

There maybe the perfect match for you closer than you might think. To get started just login as normal and start to explore all the new members, happy hunting!

Coffee houses and eateries seem to be springing up tenfold in every high street up and down the UK and are a great place to take a first date or new friend. Why? Simply put a coffee house is casual, its relaxed and it mean you can be yourself and talk to your new date or companion for friendship in a style that reflects who you really are. Meeting over coffee is a fantastic way to unwind and learn about your companion, discover what makes them tick, what their interests are and find out about the genuine person.

Other places such as restaurants and theatre can make for great evenings out but there is pressure to behave a certain way around your date; if you tend to fidget then that’s not so good! We feel that its really important to show your potential partner or companion the real you in a relaxed and warming environment. Don’t like coffee, then try an alternative, there are plenty of members who might shy away from a dinner date or formal lunch, in which case make your companion relax, be genuine and real, a coffee house date is a great way to get started.

Login now to check your matches and see. This really is the best route when considering meeting for the first time, whether you are seeking love or just friendship, morning coffee is a fabulous way to break the ice and really get to know someone.

Yes summer may be over but its still a great time to get out there and meet new friends or perhaps find that special someone in your life. Research shows that more and more people spend time on their computers looking for that perfect new date when the nights draw in.
