Honestly though I keep saying I’m tired of online & need to meet someone in person, my current is someone I initially met online. Then 2 years later we had joined the same Singles Online group on FB. I left, and back about 9 months later & here we are. The thing about these Singke online groups or even meetup.com groups is you go to events that interest you & you meet people there from the group.. so it kinda ends up in person. That is if you don’t just chat online 🤣

Where you most regularly hang out is where you most likely will build connections, romantic, or otherwise.

In my personal case, I meet people through friend hangouts, work hangouts, happy hours (especially those of my friend's in other sectors). In my experience a friend of a friend's friend are best category for dating. Loosely associated but not so close to home it will disturb a friend group if things go left (and things tend to go left more often than not nowadays).

Very true. When I look back on my past connections this is how it was. Meeting new people is always great!

I have a weird supermarket with young women

Most places though do not have the same quality as my supermarket so idk why that is

It’s not a fancy supermarket maybe that’s just where new recruits go

Theres something about pretty women in normal settings doing normal things that are more appealing them when they are trying modeling all the time 😅

As much as I love to dress myself up and look fashionable out in public I definitely agree with this lol

A person minding their own business at a coffee shop in sweats and a puffer jacket is always cute

The gym

Not when Karens are filming themselves waiting for a man to do even the smallest thing to make her think he's giving her attention so that she can bitch about how he's a "creep"

Lol you’re right the gym is not the place anymore over there! 🤣

click to expand

Definitely not over here

I haven't seen any incidents myself in my gym but there's always someone posting this kind of stuff on YouTube lol

Well in my area we don’t usually have 60 year olds on TRT recently divorced and trying to chat up young girls 🤣

The guys here don't dare talk to the girls. Everyone's in their own zone blasting their tracks through their AirPods and look like they'd punch you if you tried to talk to them lol

Here's a suggestion. At the ice cream parlor. If you don't mind a man child who likes to frequent ice cream parlors and candy stores.

🤣

😆 it's just a suggestion I thought maybe she can give a shot to. Man child's need loving too. I met my ex sag at a laundromat before we hit it off.

I love me some Dairy Queen brownie temptation

I think Starbucks is a great place to find all kinds of dates. That's where you'll find lots of scorpios and geminis hang out at. If borednbeautiful go there often I'm sure she won't strike out on a date.

Kinda sad lol

I’m a home gym bro these days but not coz the women drove me out of public gyms 🤣

click to expand

I wish I could have a home gym setup too but I don't have the space for it. Otherwise I'd definitely be working out at home. It's so much effort even mentally to get clothes on and find the car keys and drive to the gym without forgetting something because I ALWAYS end up forgetting at least one thing. It's either my water bottle, my airpods, or my phone smh smh

I've met interesting people at various jobs I've worked at lol

Definitely not date-worthy though IMO.

And the whole thing about dating someone you work with just gives me anxiety anyway

And I could never date a customer/client lol they're way too quick to ask for your number

Even if you were *so* fine I still wouldn't give out my number that quick because that's just a lot to ask for when you barely know a person

I also have traveled a few times for music festivals and have met cool people that way. Other than that, I've just used dating apps but that I'll never do ever again lol

Places I won’t search for dates:

-online

-dating apps

-job

-friends & family

To be continued…

Lol I actually found a former partner at my company I worked for at the time... he just wasn't a coworker or a boss of mine. So that was a relief and made things less stressful lol

I’d say the grocery store, but the last time a guy tried to pick me up in a grocery store turns out he was a drug addict and only wanted sex. So you meet all kinds of not so great people not only online. 🤷‍♀️

I know but I’m just kinda over the whole online thing 😬

Oh I know. Same here. I give up on looking altogether. It’s disappointing and frustrating.

No, not ready to give up just yet! 😃

Just looking for alternative ideas 🤗
