I split up with my gf a couple of months now, and really feel like its time to get over my heart ache and start meeting new people...
Im 20 and living in london for a year while on my work placement from uni. I share a flat with another guy who's also on his placement.
He's also single, but very quiet and not the sort to want to go out to bars etc, drinking and meeting girls - its like he's not even interested in meeting girls (he's not gay! - just a bit dull...). I feel like he's holding me back from socialising more. I have no idea where ill be in the future, but want to get the most out of this year.
Im not the sort of guy to have one night stands or anythin like that, i just want to meet a nice girl take things from there.
What shall i do to meet new girls? My flat mates away for the weekend, so its guna be a quiet one for me... The thought of just going out on my own seems a very lonely option!

Do you have any old school or uni mates? You could invite them down for the weekend and go out to bars and clubs. Or you could join a club to meet people or a gym for example. You're in London and I'm sure there are hundreds of things going on every weekend. Try looking for singles clubs in your area. I know a lot of people who have met Friends or partners through single groups. Is there anyone at work you could go out for a drink with?

Hi! Ok first if you were with your gf for a while it may take time to get over it. You can't rush things like trying to go out and get another girl if you do you may feel like your just trying to gat a one night stand to get rid of the heart ache.I know you want to date but don't feel read When you are you don't need your roomate to go get a girl i'm sure you can on your own. I f you don't want to go to a bar alone get people from work to go grab a drink with you. I f you go alone though the girls will flock to you not your friends. You could have the mysterious thing going on. Why is he here alone? NO wedding ring? He's really good looking why is he not here with someone?

The best way to meet girls (and indeed friends) with the same interests as you, is to join a club that does something you yourself are interested in.
Going to bars and clubs is a lottery, as the fact that someone else is in the same bar only tells you that they like alcohol. If you are fanatical about tennis, cinema, reading, swimming or any other pursuit, then you will already have a strong shared interest with everybody else at a club based upon that interest.
So my idea is for you to think about what you like doing, and visit the nearest club doing it.

Speed dating? most blokes go on their own, get to have a laugh and meet some women and if you don't fancy any of them you might make some friends - male or female, sounds liek you ened to make some male mates who are up for going out not like your dull flatmate!

Just forget about the friend and go out on your own, it's your only option.

why do you feel you need to go out with your flatmate??
get out and about -- sightsee you never know who you may meet
london has a lot to see and you are only there for a year
