Welcome to My World ... a note from Joan Barrett. Start to smell the roses Enjoy this practical yet warm guide to expanding your horizons as you participate in Mature online dating via SINS (Singles INternet-dating Services.) The following numbers are against you if you are sincerely looking for a future partner and you remain outside of SINS. As of June 2013, of the 54+ million singles in the U. S., 40+ million had tried online dating. And, 17 percent of all marriages met on dating sites. Twenty percent of current committed relationships began online. Another number: The average online dater spends $239.00 per year in fees. Not much when you consider your investment is likely to bring positive changes to your life and, likely, a partner or spouse. Solo living, often rhapsodized in film, can be quite romantic. I know ... I live it. Thanks to SINS, I discovered Mature Singles are able to tailor quite satisfying lives. Whether your goal is a fulfilling Solo or a Partnered lifestyle, this guide will bring you to a new, self-created future. Truly, you are likely to be single no more ... if you desire a last and lasting love. 1 http: //www. statisticsbrain. com/online-dating-statistics/, Reuters, Herald News, PC World, Washington Post, research date: 1/1/2014, accessed June 30, 2014. 2 Ibid. | Candyland Sins by Joan Barrett, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
