Bumble dating after divorce: How to navigate the apps as a 50-something

In the first of a three-part series, Dating, Again, Coast Days host Lorna Riley shares her experiences of dating in her 50s, post-divorce.

“We’re not meant to be alone”, says my dad. Easy for him to say – he’s been happily married to my mum for 63 years. Me? But having been single for the past 18 months since my separation, and having made it through a hellish year, I decide he’s right; I’m not only ready, but keen to share my life with a special someone once again – the final piece of the jigsaw puzzle that constitutes my life.

I bypass Tinder (rightly or wrongly, I feel like it’s for younger people and perhaps those looking for short-term hook-ups) and install Bumble (where women make the first move – this seems like a safe option) and Hinge: my older daughter tells me this is better for those wanting a relationship

I’d hoped to meet someone organically: I have a busy social calendar, and a wide friend group. But at 55, eligible singles have proved scarce, and so with a heavy inevitability, I realise dating apps may be my best chance to meet Mr Right. I shouldn’t be so reluctant – my younger brother is very happily married to a fabulous woman he met online on an early version of a dating site, while more recently, my eldest brother met his lovely partner via the more modern app. But where to start this somewhat daunting process?
