Hi, I'm Jack Zavada, the person behind inspiration for singles. I'm 73 years old and a lifelong single. What that means for you is I've probably already gone through the problems you're facing now.

You may wonder, "Why should a younger person like me listen to a geezer like him?" Fair question. The answer is experience. Our motto is, "My pain, your gain."

Inspiration for singles is NOT a dating site. You can get that anywhere on the Web. Instead, you'll find hope and encouragement here, offered in a clear, conversational style with an emphasis on what works in real life.

I promise if you spend even 15 minutes here, you will find something helpful.
