About Us

Yes, we admit that we are ALL over 50 …or maybe a bit more!

Being familiar with ‘on line dating’ through our younger clients and friends, we wondered what was being done for the 50+ crowd. …and we wondered whether our special needs were being addressed.

We realized that being single or separated, divorced or widowed or never married it may not be easy to get out there! So we put our wise (50+) heads together (Elaine, Bob, Aileen, Renee and Joe) to develop this website… and came up with the ideal sites for Seniors to address these different needs. Check us out!

We believe our group to be different. We are not a big slick business trying to make a bundle! Our group is sincerely interested in developing a flexible, friendly and helpful site where you can have a few laughs and find the type of relationships you are looking for at this stage of life. Enjoy!!!

When Renee Taylor and Joe Bologna married in 1965, he was working as a director of documentaries and commercials and she was building a career as an actress. They wanted to do a play together, he to direct, she to star. After sitting through a particularly bad play one night, they decided that they could write at least as well as that. So, they began to collaborate as writers. Three years and many drafts later, Lovers And Other Strangers opened on Broadway with Hal Prince as their first investor. They then collaborated on the screen version, which earned them an Oscar nomination and critical acclaim. In 1971, the duo co-wrote and co-starred in the original feature film, Made for Each Other. It was re-released in 1985 and has developed a tremendous cult following. Bologna and Taylor received an Emmy Award for co-writing the television special Acts of Love and Other Comedies. They wrote and co-starred in the television special, Bedrooms, for which they received a Writers Guild Of America Award. They also created the television series Calucci's Department on CBS. Additionally they co-wrote, co-directed and co-starred in the feature film It Had to be You, based on another of their Broadway plays. They shared the same duties in their original feature film, Love is All There Is, which featured Angelina Jolie in her first starring role. They have co-written and co-starred in two other Broadway plays, Bermuda Avenue Triangle and the semi-autobiographical, If you ever leave me, I'm going with you. Also in publication is Love Always, a compilation of their short plays that have been performed around the world.

As an actor, Mr. Bologna also has had leading roles in myriad major other major motion pictures, such as: My Favorite Year, Blame It On Rio, The Woman In Red, Chapter Two, Honor Thy Father, The Big Bus, Cops and Robbers; and, as Adam Sandler's father in Big Daddy.

Miss Taylor also has appeared in many other feature films, including: The Last Of The Red Hot Lovers, The Detective, White Palace and Alfie. However, she is most recognized for her role as Sylvia Fine, Fran Drescher's mother on the TV comedy series, The Nanny.

Along with their other efforts, Miss Taylor and Mr. Bologna have produced one son, one grandson, many dogs and cats; and one very loud, bossy bird.
