      Widowed singles in Minnesota

      There is a reason people call Minnesota the land of 10,000 lakes: it is a state for quiet water, neighbourly folk and long, patient friendships. If you have lost a husband or wife, that kind of steady kindness may be just what you want. Widows and widowers here live in the Twin Cities, along the shore of Lake Superior, in college towns and out on the prairie. Many are simply hoping for good conversation and a friendly face, while others are open to love again. Choose Minnesota when you sign up and we will show you members near you. Minnesotans can be reserved at first, so our members often find that a few thoughtful messages are the best way to begin.

      Gentle first-date ideas in Minnesota

      Minneapolis Sculpture Garden

      Large outdoor artworks set in a lawned garden give you things to point at and talk about, and the paths are smooth and easy. Bring a hat in spring, as the breeze can still be cool.

      Como Park Conservatory

      In St. Paul, the glasshouses of Como Park Conservatory feel warm and green even in winter, making an excellent indoor date. The conservatory also hosts seasonal flower displays that you can enjoy together.

      Duluth Lakewalk

      Follow the path beside Lake Superior toward the Aerial Lift Bridge, and stop for coffee wherever it suits you. Wear comfortable shoes, as the path is long and there is no need to walk all of it.

      Minnehaha Regional Park

      A short walk takes you to the waterfall in Minneapolis, with benches nearby and a pleasant creek path beyond.

      Seasons and weather

      Winters are long and properly cold, so most people plan indoor dates from December to March and think nothing of it. Spring arrives late and muddy. Summer is the time for lakes and patios, and can be warm and humid. Autumn colour in September and October is lovely for a walk, and a good time to suggest a scenic drive. Even in January, plenty of people meet for a coffee, and a good coat is simply part of the plan.

      Local flavour

      Wild rice soup, hotdish, walleye, Juicy Lucy burgers and lefse at Christmas all have devoted fans. Ask your match about the church-basement recipe they grew up with. Pie, bars and potluck dishes are a firm part of Minnesota life, so ask what they would bring to a gathering.

      What is a good first date in Minnesota?

      Try a lakeside walk, such as the Duluth Lakewalk, or a stroll around the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden with a coffee afterwards. When the weather is bitter, the glasshouses of Como Park Conservatory in St. Paul are a warm, easy alternative. Whichever you choose, arrive a few minutes early and enjoy a quiet moment first.
