Episode 2
Online dating can be fraught and intimidating to some but it is also one of the principal ways to meet people when you are midlife dating. Your social networks and connections may have diminished compared to when you were in your late teens or 20s and many people in your social circles may already be in relationships. This episode looks at what is stopping people from online dating, hears tips and stories from people who have been online dating and contains a real life success story of someone who found love in midlife through online dating.
