Mature gay dating: your time to love life together!

Mature gay dating: your time to love life together!

Dating as an older gay man can be a challenge. As an all-too-accurate viral tweet said: “Gay culture is being a teenager when you’re 30 because your teenage years were not yours to live.”. So when it comes to dating a senior gay man, how do you find something serious and not just another fling or immature relationship complete with all the drama of your typical Euphoria episode?

Here at Ourtime, we are committed to finding you people who are more serious about finding someone special. Our mature gay dating site is here to help you find a person to spend long summer evenings with, or if you’re just looking to become a part of the community at large, we can help with that too.

After 50, sometimes it feels like you need to settle down or find a like-minded partner who cares to share blissful moments together. At Ourtime, we help you find that special someone. If you have an open heart and you’re hoping to meet someone beautiful, you’re in the right place to find your best match.

Is Ourtime really the gay dating site for me?

Whether you’re just coming out or you’re a more experienced gay dater, we want to listen to you. Just let us know what you’re looking for in a partner and we will send over profiles of likely candidates for a few nights out or a longer term relationship.

Use our special features to filter for characteristics (physical or personality-wise), what you’re looking for (a long term relationship or just a bit of fun) or even the religious predilections of your dating partner (atheists are welcome too, don’t worry). We will only show you the profiles of members who match what you’re looking for and you can swipe to your hearts content knowing that all the men you see have something in common with you. You might find the gay man just for you – or just a friend who matches your energy seamlessly.

Even better, signing up to Ourtime is free! So you can use our mature gay dating service and enjoy some advice and tips from our team about how to get exactly what you want from your relationships. Just visit our app or site today and sign up to get started.

Finding a partner who really wants a relationship with Ourtime

Ok, we’ll admit it: Mature dating is just better. With age comes not only wisdom, but also a love for yourself that can be hard to maintain as a LGBTQ+ kid (yes, to us a kid is everyone under 50) – and that self worth makes for better love, sex and more meaningful relationships.

It’s not all about ‘finding yourself’ though, becoming an integral part of the LGBTQ+ community as an older gay-identified member means that you can express your wants and desires more accurately, you don’t just know yourself, but you know what you want from other people too.

If you’ve been through a painful break-up or a series of one-night stands or heartbreaking affairs, the doubt can creep in. It’s no secret that the gay community puts an unfair emphasis on youth and twinkage, but we’re not about that. Dating as an older gay person is a great thing! We’re here to help you find people and men who share interests, passions and life goals.

Neither your age, nor your physical changes should spell the end of your love life. You’re in your prime, so get ready to shine! You’re probably just looking for a partner to enjoy life to the fullest or maybe a lover to build an exciting romance with? No matter what your personality is or your experience in life, dating sites are most likely the best way for you to meet your new sweetheart!

Ourtime is a simple, secure and LBGTQ+ friendly dating website bringing like-minded hearts together to fall in love again. We help you find gay singles over 50 with similar interests. What matters the most is what you are ready to share in the new romance… Let everybody know you’re single and ready to mingle and join our app or site.

A few dating tips for gay men over 50

Back on the prowl and ready to throw yourself into the gay dating world? If you’re new to this game and not completely sure about how it works, don’t worry! Today, you are twice as likely to find that special someone on the Internet as in real life[1]. So, forget about hanging out in bars and clubs waiting for the right men to come to you. Sign up to Ourtime and let’s get the romance started!

We are here to help you find the man right for you amongst thousands of senior gay singles. But for now, here’s our top tips on online dating as a mature gay man:

• Not everyone has been out as long as you have: Probably our most important tip about dating as a mature gay man. It takes people time to come out, even if you figured it out early on. Let other people move on their own terms and you can communicate your expectations to them. If they’re not ready to hold hands walking down the street, that’s ok. It hasn’t always been easy (or even legal) for the LGBTQ+ community to express themselves, so keep that in mind.
• Embrace yourself: Dating is all about having fun, even if you don’t find the mythical ‘one’. Embrace yourself as a more mature man and remember that it isn’t all about settling down as soon as you can. Just because you’re older doesn’t mean you have to stop shopping around, who knows you might just find someone great.
• Feel free: The reverse of the first tip, sort of. If you are comfortable with yourself, express it! It’s the 21st century and we are free to be who we want – and there’s undeniable joy in that. Being gay and proud is a fundamental right and even if your partner or the guy you’re on a first date with isn’t comfortable yet, it doesn’t mean you have to hide yourself either. Be loud, be proud.

Register for free, it’s easy! All you need is to enter your name, answer a few questions about your interests and tell us what kind of guy you’re looking for. Choose a recent photograph of you smiling and being your beautiful self. Craft a short and genuine description of yourself — and that’s it! You’re now free to browse through the profiles of other single (or polyamorous) gay men we selected for you and get ready to share the love! Spotted someone cute? Polish off your conversations starters and dive in the online dating chat. Take time to discover your potential matches more in depth. You may find a special date right there for you! And do not worry about fakers. Ourtime’s top priority is to verify each profile and make sure they’re authentic. Last but not least, your personal data remains confidential and you decide what information you want to share with whom.

Get app-solutely into the gay online dating community

Ok, forgive the pun but you have to admit it works well as app marketing. Let’s get to the nitty-gritty: Nowadays everyone meets online. If it’s an online dating site or an app, there’s someone you know that’s used it.

So, what’s so good about dating apps? Doesn’t it take away that special ‘crush’ feeling you get when you have a mutual friend you really fancy? In short, no. Here at Ourtime, we’ve created a dating app that has mature gay men in mind. Not just to increase the matches you might get, but to embrace people for who they are, champion people we think you’d like and, most importantly, keep you relaxed and harassment-free when online dating.

We don’t just protect your personal information (of course we do that), we also verify our profiles so you know who you’re talking to is real. Each profile picture and description is moderated so that we can make sure you’re not getting catfished – yes, that cute silver fox is totally real, send him a message! We are also dedicated to protecting you from harassment and homophobia, simply click the report button and we will review your complaint as quickly as we can, it’s really that simple. For us, prejudice has no place in dating apps or dating sites.

But if that’s not enough, we have plenty of dating advice, tips and customer care features that can assist you in finding someone who is really great. And for those who’d still rather do things in person, we have Ourtime Activities. You can meet new people and share your interests through activities and organised trips in the UK and Europe. It’s a great way to meet other mature singles and have fun at the same time – friends are welcome too (if they’re single)!

Head on out for a real, authentic dating experience

Your journey through life has taken you to so many places and has taught you even more. Yes, your heart might have a couple of scars but it hasn’t aged a bit. What have you learnt? Harvest happiness in the present and enjoy what really matters: what you share together in your relationships. An open heart, a similar mindset and similar interests: that’s all you need for your best match! As a mature guy, you know yourself inside out, you know the man (or men) who’s right for you.
