solway86 Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 (edited) OK, so I'm not that sure about it, but here goes, are any of these places good ones to meet single women: Salsa / dance lessons - however, price is sometimes an issue (and as much as I shouldn't care what others think, there is the worry it's not very manly/macho, at least in my area!) Concerts run by local radio stations Classes - where there's a larger female-to-male ratio (but what?) Speed-dating / singles events (everyone's there for the same thing, dating) I'm only going by advice I'd got from Google, but, am wondering, where would you say the best places were? I was taking advice that I'd read somewhere that I had to be proactive about dating, so I am being, but I'm trying to tread cautiously, so I'm not ripped off, emotionally or financially. Work is obviously not a good place, too many issues there, so I've decided to narrow my options. I'm avoiding online dating, as I suppose I have to get better at doing these things in person, however reading resources on dating and relationships online (not the same thing) is different, it's more like research isn't it? As it is, in terms of actually finding single women, I end up never asking because I get too comfortable being friends with them and lack confidence at flirting. If I tell them they're beautiful... it sounds less like flirting, and just like a compliment, as if you were complimenting someone on having a nice Rolex / garden etc. In terms of classes, what subjects would you recommend? (note that I'm in the UK) Edited May 16, 2014 by solway86
bryceisbryce Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 art and cooking classes are fun. single women are everywhere though. don't limit yourself to events you are going to specifically meet them. your coworkers do have friends, sisters, etc... hanging out with them outside of work may give you some new possibilities through networking.

The only problem is... my co-workers tend to be in their 40s and 50s, married with children (and even grandchildren), so it tends to limit any prospects for that. I do see some of them now and then outside of work, but not that often. I'm not going to events just because single people are there... but for the event itself.
jaycee1 Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 I'm not sure about dance classes. I personally would go to clubs to dance before taking dance classes unless it was with a partner. I am in US- california but here there are lots of body boot camps or kickboxing classes that a filled with women. Plus the one I goes to does event together like marathons or mud runs which give you opportunity to get to know each other in a more fun environment.
