I am seriously out of options. I was going to go to a singles dance, but only old people go to those, so ther would be no young women my age there. I am not in school, I work full-time; so that is out. I would go to a club or a bar and grill but I know women in those places are very hostile to guys. I tried online dating and I failed. What can I do?

DO NOT say "just wait and you will meet the right one". I have heard that before and it does not help. I only want sound advice?
2007-10-04 13:00:48 · update #1
those are pretty much your only options right there
bars/clubs
singles dances
online dating
maybe girls from work??
you make too many excuses of why you shouldn't do something
singles dances have too many old people
bars and clubs have too many hostile chicks
get your lazy *** up and go to a bar or club...chicks are not hostile by any means

Great places are:
Books - a - Millions in the malls/sit and read /coffee
StarBucks in the historic districts or cool parts of cities
Sit around and have a coffee or latte'
Church (I was just saved and a member of a very small Christian Alliance Church with less than 30 members) this is great because you go as a group and sometimes eat out together...its more personalized.
When your walking around stop and talk (with anyone) don;t be shy. Humor always get girls attention. Have allot of humor and don;t take it seriously when someone says their taken. The guys that are good at this (even if they are not really handsome) seem to find women rather easy. They make or crack jokes and even if they are not funny ..a woman (if at the right frustrating time) will laugh. See, men have to learn the art of charming a lady for you never know right away if she is up to talking to strangers.

It depends on what kind of women you are trying to find. Strip clubs, night clubs, casino, grocery store, department stores, the mall, the park, at work, sign up for some clubs or organizations. usually community centers have classes going on pick some that you are interested in and go there. How do you know women are hostile in places like that? Don't act desperate, and don't act like an ******/jerk. Care a little and if you don't, act like you do.

I would suggest clubs and bars, not all women there are hostile towards men. Just don't go after women whom you know are out of your league. Ask your friends to introduce you to people. I know what you mean about the singles dances. LOL!

It seems the only way to meet a decent person is to be introduced through friends/relatives. Have you looked around your office? That is where I met my husband and I was a FIRM believer in not dipping your pen in the company ink. Try to get involved in community projects or events through a church. Good luck!
OR, since you are only 22....take this as your chance to REALLY accomplish your goals cause once you do get a gal pal...all that will go on hold....unfortunately.

not on yahoo answers, depending on where you live go find yourself a nice bar downtown where all the beautiful women hang out and see if you get a catch!! in bars women are generally picky though, so find a social club or somthing
best of luck!

In this fast paced world we live in, sometimes we don't make time to socialize. Before you know it, your friends have all gone their own ways and often you are left alone. You sit night after night watching TV or spending time on the computer.
The computer you say, can help you meet people. Sometimes it can, but more often than not, it's just faceless, meaningless chatroom conversation. It's better to get outside of your home, see people face-to-face, socialize and have fun!
There are many reasons you may not get out to meet people. You're too busy, too tired, too shy, too frustrated by the social scene, and just overwhelmed by it all. But the alternative is to be alone.
Listed next are 25 places to meet people. Some ideas to help get you motivated to go out and make some new friends. All you have to do is leave your house! You have nothing to lose and so much to gain: FRIENDS! Change your attitude, be open to possibilities, relax, and have fun. Bars and nightclubs are not mentioned as there are many better and preferred ways to meet people.
1)Join a health club: solves two problems; you'll become less of a couch potato and more fit. Think of all the people you will meet. The friends you meet here will most likely be healthy, athletic and attractive. You'll look better and feel better at the same time.
2)Take a class, any class: again a two in one tactic; you'll learn something new and make new friends with similar interests. Conversation is easier if you have something in common.
3)Go to Museums: Many museums have special events and members only events. Become a member and meet lots of cultured people.
4)Got to sporting events: Go to sporting events of any kind; soccer, football, basketball, etc. Go to professional games or college games, guaranteed to have fun.
5)Go to Flea Markets and Antique Shows: While you're browsing the finds, you can people watch.
6)Play a Sport: Have you ever wanted to play soccer after watching a game on TV? Lots of towns have adult sport programs. Volleyball and tennis are common town recreational sports you could join.
7)Join a Book Club: Check this out at your local library. Reading books and sharing them is another great way to get to know people.
8)Join a Singles Group: Self-explanatory, there are many singles organizations out there that plan singles dances, get-aways, etc.
9)Volunteer: Help build houses for Habitat for Humanity; give out beverages at marathons, or join one of the many volunteer organizations.
10)Have a Party: Invite your friends and have them invite two friends and so on and so on.
11)Learn a craft: take craft classes at your local community center.
12)Join a Business Association: If you are a professional, join your local association. Network for your business and your personal life.
13)Go to High School/College Reunions: A great way to reconnect with your old best friend!
14)Get a Dog and Walk Everywhere: go to parks and the beach with your dog. Dogs are great people meeters!
15)Go to every Party you are invited to: even if you don't want to go...go. You never know who you'll meet.
16)Join an Investment Club: make money and friends!
17)Travel: go to the islands; Europe; talk to everyone. Learn about their culture.
18)Go to seminars: lots of people go to seminars alone; great place to start a conversation.
19)Go to Wine Tastings: sometimes local restaurants have a wine-tasting night.
20)Go skiing, snowmobiling, snowboarding
21)Take a yoga, Tai Chi class: relieve tensions and meet other enlightened people.
22)Get a new job: Is your job boring, going nowhere, maybe you need a change. A new job is a great place to make some new relationships.
23)Join a women's or men's group
24)Take up acting; go to acting workshops, help create scenery.
25)Talk to everyone, everywhere
As you can see, these are not difficults methods.
They are tried and true. Remember, you can never have too many friends!

Have you tried the personal ads in your local paper?
They say if you go to the grocery and wear obvious mismatched socks, some woman will try to rescue your fashion sense and stick up a conversation...I don't know if that works or not..

1) Be yourself. Women respect honesty and integrity. They hate fakes. 2) Don't talk street slang if you don't do it every day. You will just embarrass yourself. 3) Ignore those morons on MTV. There are more important things in life than MTV. Good luck!
