      Widowed singles in Michigan

      Surrounded by four of the Great Lakes, Michigan is a state where water is never far away, and many people here find peace beside it. If you have lost your husband or wife and are wondering what comes next, you are among friends. Our members include people from Detroit and its suburbs, from lakeshore towns, from college cities and from the far reaches of the Upper Peninsula. Everyone is encouraged to move gently: write a few messages, talk when you are ready, then perhaps meet for a coffee and a walk. Whether you are after friendship or something more, choose Michigan when you join to see members nearby. Winters here can be long, so having someone to write to and perhaps meet by a warm fire can mean a great deal. Our members are proud of their state, so ask them about their favourite lake, their hometown or the cottage they visit every summer. Memories like these often make the best first conversation.

      Gentle first-date ideas in Michigan

      Frederik Meijer Gardens, Grand Rapids

      Indoor conservatories and outdoor sculpture gardens make this a good all-weather choice. Paths are wide and smooth, with seating along the way. The grounds are beautiful in every season.

      The Detroit Institute of Arts

      One of the country's great art museums, with a famous mural court and rooms to suit all tastes. Walking through galleries together gives you something to say about every corner. Take a break in the cafe if you need to rest your feet.

      Mackinac Island

      Motor vehicles are not allowed, so the island is peaceful by design. Ferries run from Mackinaw City and St. Ignace, mainly in the warmer months, so check the timetable before you plan a trip. Stroll the main street and pause for a drink with a view of the water.

      Sleeping Bear Dunes lakeshore

      Near Traverse City, scenic overlooks and short trails show off the lake and the dunes. Wear shoes with a good grip, as sand can be tiring. Mornings tend to be the quietest.

      Seasons and weather

      Michigan has four distinct seasons. Summer is the busiest, with long evenings by the lakes and pleasant breezes. Autumn colour is rich and well worth a drive north. Winters are cold and snowy, with lake-effect snow in some areas, so meeting indoors is wise from December to March. Spring is slow to warm up, and often wet, so keep an umbrella handy. Remember that lake weather can change quickly, so bring a layer even on a sunny morning. Many people in Michigan say the lakes feel like home, which makes a waterfront walk an especially natural choice.

      Local flavour

      Cherries from Traverse City, Great Lakes whitefish, Detroit-style pizza, coney dogs and fresh doughnuts with cider in autumn all give you easy openings. In the Upper Peninsula, pasties are a proud tradition. Ask your match which they would pick. Maple syrup in spring and fudge on the islands are also much loved, and a stop at a farm stand is a pleasant way to spend an hour.
