Where Do You Find Guys To Date ?

Best Places To Meet Single Men

Where Girls Go To Find A Guy

As a single thirty-something, one of the challenges you find with meeting men is that – well, you don’t meet any!  At least not in your day to day life.  If you live in the suburbs which are populated mainly by families – that means you have to go to find guys to date instead of the other way around.  Working  in an office full of women doesn’t help either. And on top of where you live and who you work with – all your friends tend to be married couples or other single women who do not, unfortunately, have cute male friends or cousins that would be the perfect match for you.  It’s slim pickings at your gym and even more of a wasteland at yoga class.  You have yet to meet a potential date in the grocery aisle. When internet dating is slow to bring success, what options are left?

In his book, “LoveSmart,” Dr. Phil talks about the concept of “target-rich” environments.  What he means by this, is that a single woman such as yourself needs to go where the boys are, not wait for them to lose themselves in the suburbs and come knocking on your door for directions. So where do you find guys to date? Watching sports games, drinking beer at the local hotspots after work on Thursday night and generally hanging out where single guys tend to congregate.  A few of them may venture into the odd aerobics class, but chances are, you will have to go out of your way to find them.

Decide that now is the time to take things into your own hands and use these practical steps towards finding the best places to meet single men,  first recruit a single girlfriend in your mission to shake up your regular social routine. No more “girls’ nights” that entail drinking wine in someone’s living room. Instead, schedule yourselves for soccer games followed by drinks at sports bars. Beer festivals. NASCAR Races.

One of my friends was recently at a party where one of the invitees was known to have his pulse on the city’s social scene.  Taking a sip of wine and casting aside her self-consciousness, she asked him where the professional men downtown hang out.  Thankfully, he was more flattered than amused by her question and gave her a list of the best hotspots to try from Thursday through Saturday night. Armed with the list, she reported back to her girlfriend and told her that this summer, the goal was to get out of the suburbs and into the city at least once a week, to try out these different venues.  Because the best chance of finding Mr. Potentially Right, is going where the odds are in your favor. See what you can find out about your own city.  Ask other guys what they like to do for fun and outside of work. Then ask- where do guys like to hang out – where do you find guys to date?   It never hurts to ask and remember that guys love to help girls – I know more relationships that have started from just asking for help! Let me know where the best places are for you to meet single guys.
