Over the years, the one child per family rule, the communist dictatorship and the strengthening of the Great Wall of China have all impacted in the social and relationship game in the world’s most populated country – China.
Divorce sadly still happens and relationships break up, be it in Hong Kong, Dongguan, Xiamen or Chongqing. To ensure that love and happiness goes on, it is important that Chinese people over the age of 50 have options. Whether they speak Mandarin, Cantonese or indeed English (the case in Hong Kong), then there are plenty of over 50 dating sites to suit everyone’s needs. Here are just some of the options for Chinese people in such a position. Something such young pups are as yet unaware of!
These days, the rise of internet dating has led to the introduction of online apps, dating sites and all kinds of flirtatious games that were not present many years ago. In fact, this means that Chinese people these days have more access to dating possibilities than ever before.
Tinder
Believe it or not, Tinder is active in China and over 50s do know how to use it despite the fact that it is often censored by the strict governments in the country! You’ll need a VPN, firewall etc. to use it but once you get going, select the age bracket you want – perhaps 35+ and you are ready to go!
Chinese Dating Sites for the Mature
There are lots of dating sites for over 50s so ensure you have a good look around at them before you choose the best option for you. Ones without photos you can forget and also those that allow nudes can be offputting too. You don’t want the shock of opening your homepage to a Chinese flopping dick hanging out do you?! Imagine if it was a small one!
Blind Dating
There is also the cool option of blind dating whereby you don’t actually see your potential partner before the meeting. This is great for surprises. You could end up with a total unexpected microlight stunner, or a fat dude going bald! Either way it’s a good option for those who want to try something new.
Speed Dating
The new kid on the block in the dating game is speed dating. In this example, you get to meet about 15 people on one evening by table hopping. You literally only get 5 minutes to impress each “date” and afterwards select the ones you like. In the same way that Tinder does it, you click match and then if you get a match, you can meet up again. Another intriguing way to date for over 50s in China and it is becoming more and more popular as the days go by.
Facebook Dating Groups
While China tries to ban Facebook completely, this hasn’t quite worked! There are plenty of dating groups which have escaped through the net and are readily available in Chinese and English. This way you can also see what the person looks like in advance (assuming they have used a real photo – beware of fakes!).
Overall though, these are just a few of the many options available for over 50s in China, and indeed further afield when it comes to finding that cherished and longed for long term partner for life.
Good luck!
