The objective of this study is to identify the effect of dating on the single elderly people`s adaptation flexibility which helps them to overcome various problems to live a successful life and wants to suggest ways to increase the adaptation flexibility. To achieve this goal, 304 single elderly people who use the senior welfare centre in Seoul were researched in a form of a survey. For the collected data, the frequency analysis, descriptive analysis, and regression analysis were conducted via SPSS Software (PASW 18.0). It was shown that the socio-demographic characteristics affected their dating status. Looking at the resilience of the single elderly people considering their socio-demographic characteristics, it can be seen that the age, religion, and living expenses have a significant effect. With the experimental results as background, we want to suggest improving the general publics`view on single elderly people dating and development of various programs to energize dating within seniors as a way to improve the adaptation flexibility.
