This Being Alone is for the Birds !

I was married for a really long time (22 years).  Now that I've been single for a number of years I'd really like to have someone special in my life to enjoy the good times (and bad ... hope not too many) with.  I'm just have a really hard time finding someone.  I don't sit in bars, I work in a college town, my church does not have a singles group for middle-age (40's) individuals and most of my friends are still married with families still on the go.   So where does one go to find nice single men now a days?

I'm in totally agreement

 I saw the previews of this show. Oh come on now. If someone is playing with their food no wonder they don't get a date!
Why are you fixing up these young good looking perfect specimans? What about the rest of us???
But what about us who are over 40? I've done the volunteering route, the gym, the dating services...we meet go for coffee.....and that's it. Or they just want sex, or it's got to where they just look at me and I know....he's not interested. I may be a little overweight but I dress well, have impeciable manners, interesting fun conversation about any subject.....and they either want to jump me or dump me!
The one's I have met online who are interested are hundreds of miles away.....so that's no help.
When do we get a turn at the game? Get to grab the brass ring or in this case gold ring??
Quit helping young and stupid and help us older, interesting ladies!
 I agree  with all of the replies.  I have seen past dating shows and most of them have focused on those in their 20s and 30s.  And yes, who plays with their food on a first date, that is just disgusting.  I have been married (21 years) raised to wonderful children and I'm in the prime of my life.   I'm active, work part-time (just to be around people ... definitely not for the money)  and those on-line that seem really interested and compatable are those that are so far away.    Some of us just aren't ready to relocate to a big city like LA or NY.  And maybe there is something I'm doing wrong, who knows.   Still where is the advise and help for those of us single, over 40 and ready to have live life and have fun and find love all over again?
