Is There An Autumn Romance In Your Future?

Autumn is one of the most romantic times of year:

• Snuggling up under a flannel blanket gazing at the stars
• Walking hand-in-hand through nature’s fall display of leaves
• Cuddling up next to a crackling fireplace

But an Autumn Romance is a romantic relationship that occurs later in life.

 

Because you are never too old for romance.

 

Because we never out-grow romance.

 

Looking for an Autumn Romance?

• If you’re into online dating there are sites specifically for older adults, such as Our Time, Elite Singles and Just Senior Singles.
• Take up a new hobby and you just might meet someone with similar interests.
• Attend over-50 type events in your community.
• Concerts of groups who were popular in your day and activities centered around the music of your day (ex. Music of the 60’s, 70’s, etc.) will be full of like-aged people.
• Take a bus tour, often offered through churches or community centers, and connect with others who enjoy travel or cultural.

Has anyone experienced an Autumn Romance? I’d love to hear how it began and how it’s going!

Leave me a comment – you may help someone else looking for love and companionship.
