LoginI was at the cemetery when I decided to set up my first online dating profile. I was widowed at 38 and had plenty of dating years ahead of me. My friends assured me that the way to meet people was via the internet. But what did I know about the world of online dating, from writing a catchy bio to appearing attractive in digital form? My research into the best online dating sites for widows and widowers was not encouraging. My friends laughed along with me when the first photo we pulled up on one widow dating website was of a man who was clearly older than my father.

My last husband Andy and I met online in on Dating Direct, so when I lost Andy in and was eventually ready to meet someone new, I wasn't a total novice when it came to online dating. After a long period of shock and grief, I went back online and tried the mainstream dating apps; Tinder, Bumble and Hinge, and it felt like the Wild West. So much had changed in 20 years. I was dealing with ghosting and catfishing, and it was hard to navigate. I experienced plenty of scenarios that left me with battle scars. Online dating is a challenge.
