when youve been single for soooooooo long how?do you start?

Question

dont say chatlines,coz there all sex freaks,id like to meet someone but get to know and all that ,were do you begin please?dont bother answering daft im serious!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

Don't set your expectations so high.
Don't hang out in bars to meet a nice man.

Call me, I'll go out with you!

Answer 2

Honestly, I wouldn't start on chat rooms or any dating internet sites for that matter. If you really want to feel comfortable, secure & feel like you're getting to know someone face to face is better. 80% of human communication is non verbal, it's important to be able to see someone's facial expression & body language to get the real jets of where their head is at when they're communicating with you.

Be cautious, take it slow & find out everything you can about a person. Physical attraction is important too. Just be careful because dating isn't what it use to be. It's hardly fun anymore...everybodies looking for something & you never know what the other person is looking for.

Answer 3

well you should have bumbed into him casually at the bank. But what were you doing? on the cell phone, rushing off to yahoo. hmmm?

Now you want to force a casual meeting. Preposterous! Just go to the bar like everyone else.

or try to be a bit more sociable to people you meet and go out with friends as much as you can, meet thier friends friends

Answer 4

Know the feeling. Try church, joining sports groups like co-ed tennis/golf/volleyball, or other groups that you would like to learn like art or photography classes.
In short, get active. The one absolute is that you will not meet someone if you stay home. So get out there even if it is just walking at the local park or mall; or going to a bookstore to browse...for books or guys (girls for me).

Keep the faith and good luck!

Answer 5

ok i think you should meet new people by going out new places or meeting friends or your current friends! in other words make as many people as possible through clubs, the gym etc, social things like parties. Have a party or something at your house and ask your friends to come and bring one of their friends that you dont know. be friendly bubbly and outgoing and people will love you. the more people you meet the more chance there is of meeting mr right.
dont search for him as such.....because this never works. work on getting to meet lots of new people and let him come to you naturally. it will happen sometime for you, dont worry.

Answer 6

Boy this is a tough one. If you have some friends it's good to go out with them to act as a buffer. Our secretary gets into those computer match things like match.com and she has more dates (mainly with losers) than she can handle.

Try to go to church functions possibly. It's embarrassing to watch people in bars that are trying to play it cool. It's pretty obvious. Don't be cheap though, of course. Men don't go for that for a long-term relationship.

Answer 7

I met my bf on a date site - not a chat line! It takes time and effort no matter what you do. You are not going to go out and immedately meet the right one - dating is a numbers game. Remember - you have to kiss a lot of toads before you find a prince!!

Answer 8

Anywhere except bars and pubs. First is to go out there and meet them. Try coffee joints, shopping malls and restaurants. Are you working? If you do, what about your colleagues. There is a Y!Personals. They do have decent guys there.

Answer 9

Start going out with friends. You have to get out of the house to meet others.
Make yourself approachable - meaning smiling, striking up small talk, but most importantly get out there and hang out, even if you have to hang out by yourself.

Hope this helps...
