lbj123 Posted December 17, 2007 Posted December 17, 2007 General question...does anyone have suggestions on the best ways to meet men? Since my break up a few months ago, I've met no one that I have even been remotely interested in. I am very social, have lots of great friends, and go out all the time. On the weekends I mainly go out to restaurants and bars with friends, but I also go to concerts, museums, to the gym, etc. I consider myself attractive, sexy, upbeat, energetic, interesting, talkative, etc, but I don't seem to get approached very often. For now, I am not interested in on-line dating. I'm not against it and wouldn't rule it out entirely, but its not something I currently want to do. Any advice on other things I can do?
amaysngrace Posted December 17, 2007 Posted December 17, 2007 I have advice. Forget about finding a man. Be okay without one. Don't act it. It has to be genuine. Genuinely don't give a crap one way or the other if you have a man in your life. As soon as you do they will come out of the woodwork.
Jilly Bean Posted December 17, 2007 Posted December 17, 2007 I hear prison has lots of single men. Besides that, like grace said, just live your life and the men will appear. Unless you work in convent.
WIGIRL Posted December 17, 2007 Posted December 17, 2007 it could be you appear too intimidating with a group all the time. stick with groups of 3. you'll get approached more.
Trialbyfire Posted December 17, 2007 Posted December 17, 2007 Build it and they will come... The best times and places to meet men, is when you don't want them around. They can smell disinterest and flock. Go figure...
D-Lish Posted December 17, 2007 Posted December 17, 2007 Don't take it personally when you go out and don't get approached. Approaching someone is a daunting task for either gender... People would rather hang back then risk getting rejected. When you feel good about yourself- that confidence attracts people. I think that's what people like about online dating.... it's easier to contact a profile than an actual person. There are pros and cons to the online dating scene. I have had a little bit of success doing it... I have also had some bad experiences. It's true that when you feel good about yourself and aren't looking that prospective dates come out of the woodwork. I also think when it comes to approaching someone- the more attractive you are, the less apt someone is to talk to you because the risk of getting rejected is greater.
mortensorchid Posted December 19, 2007 Posted December 19, 2007 I too would like to know how and where to meet good people. But, the world is full of jerks. The world is full of about 99% jerks. The trick is weeding them out. And, like they say, when you least expect it, something will happen. I just want it to happen. Now, I just have a Mr. Right Now.
