seniors are finding an increasing number of ways to meet new sweethearts. Online dating services can be a secure and nonthreatening way for seniors to meet, said Kristin Kelly, a spokeswoman for Match.com, a popular dating site. The number of baby boomers using the website has jumped 350% since 2000, she said. One of the site's most popular users is a 78-year-old retired physician, and some members are in their 90s, she said.
