Being part of the Stitch “family” has been just a fantastic and wonderful experience. Just over a year ago I realised I had to make an effort to join something, somewhere, somehow. The members I’ve come to know will be part of my life for a long time. Stitch has been such a positive experience and has brought me back to life. I want to thank everyone at Stitch for giving me something to look forward to again.

How on earth did you attract such amazing people to Stitch? I am so amazed … such a far cry from the simplistic and quick conversations everywhere else. I really am blown away. Keep on doing what you are doing, Stitch is so unique.

Stitch is a really amazing way to meet people, with the screening you do, I didn’t feel vulnerable to scammers. I honestly signed up to Stitch to look at group outings, holidays & discussion forums. Curiosity made me check out a couple of profiles, I only clicked interested on a couple, I had a brief chat with one gentleman, and he & I had a couple of chats, long phone call, and met face to face. We've been very happy since.

Thanks for Stitch. It is a great place to meet real people. There is no other place that I have found to make these kinds of connections on a daily basis and I look forward to our sharing time. You have helped make the world a village for so many of us and I thank you for that.

Stitch opened that door for me to allow me to step outside of my little bubble of a world and be creative and less a hermit of habit. I really don’t like being so alone, Stitch allows me to meet not just men, but people of all walks of life. Some widows like me, some wild and “out there”, and some just needing to know that everything is going to be alright.

I really don’t know what I would do without Stitch in my life right now. I was on a downward spiral of depression. Then I took a chance and decided to check this thing called Stitch out never knowing what a blessing it was going to be in my life. I have a few tears running down my cheeks as I type this out. But really, I just can’t thank you enough!! I feel alive again.

Dating 65 And Older

When you've got people to share experiences with, laugh alongside and look forward to seeing, life after 50 can be truly wonderful. Having companions for everyday activities, whether it's a local outing, a shared interest or a relaxed conversation, can make life feel more vibrant and connected. However, it can be challenging to find companionship when you don't know where to start. Even with your current circle of friends, distance or tight schedules can get in the way of staying close. Moreover, there are so many platforms available that you're left uncertain which ones are reliable. At Stitch, our trusted platform for older adults makes this process simpler and more comfortable. It's a worldwide community for people over 50 seeking to make meaningful connections through shared interests, activities, discussions and events together. Our goal is to support older adults in forming and fostering companionship that provides value to everyday life, making it the ideal community for those who have been searching for 'Dating 65 And Older' or 'Dating 60 And Over'. In fact, our approach has even been recognized by major publications like Time, The New Yorker and Forbes, and our efforts have earned us the United Nations' 2024 WSIS Healthy Aging Innovation Prize.

Companionship looks different for everyone, and Stitch is designed to support that. If you're seeking friendship, common interests or romance, there are choices that feel natural and low-pressure. For those looking for platonic relationships, it's easy to meet new people and keep socially active, and for those open to romance, there are relaxed group settings to get to know others without the pressure often tied to traditional dating apps. You can read our member testimonials to learn about our community's experiences and real stories of friendship and connection. As the community grows, members are joining across cities like Minneapolis, Manchester and Melbourne, which makes it easier to meet people nearby and maintain a steady social routine.

A group-led platform structure helps you identify genuine members more easily, creating a welcoming, trusted environment for everyone.

You can indicate whether you're here for friendship, romance or both and select your interests to see discussions, events and activities that genuinely fit you. You can also tailor your distance preferences to cover either a smaller area or a wider one. Our platform offers an accessible, seamless experience, whether on the phone, tablet or computer, backed by a responsive support team whenever help is needed.
