Where to find Girlfriend
Replies
-
Well I race road bikes and ride 150 milesish a week. So thats my main hobby. I have a dog already. Been single for 7 months and it seems that the women I meet in everyday situations the majority are married or dating someone already. Funny thing is I'm a nursing student and in my class everyone that I would be interested in is married or engaded. They all ask me about my dates and love to talk about em.
Dude, I have no clue why you are single either. But, just live your life and you never know when someone will just pop into your life

I met my husband at the lake I grew up at. He was working on a boat and I was there swimming with my girlfriends. We've been married for over 33 years now! We still go boating and swimming and now live within a mile from that lake. We camp, fish, hike and do all sorts of things together that we enjoy, but still have our own 'things' to do also.
I would suggest that you figure out what you love to do, what you'd love to do with a girlfriend (no that that, yet!) and go do it! Do you like hiking? Canoeing? Skiing? Volunteer! Take your pup to a dog park. Pick up trash around a lake or somewhere people are located. You wouldn't believe the guys who have hit on me while I'm doing that. It's kind of weird but I guess people like it when they see you do it and it's a very easy conversation starter! Who doesn't like seeing trash picked up? Yeah it's gross and you have to wear gloves but oh well. I think it's sexy to see a guy cleaning up the environment! You're a good looking guy, you'll have no problem!
Anyway, work with whatever you passion is, find some new hobbies and you'll find that girl! Good luck!0 -
Well....I'll say I went to Zumba fitness classes to meet guys my age...except there were no guys. Only women...so hey maybe you should go there?
Even if you meet an older lady who is married, she might have a daughter your age!
Wait...you went to a Zumba class to meet guys???0 -
You might try Church???0 -
hmm. my fiance met me when my roommate brought me over to his house to play guitar hero and smoke some pot.
it is hard to find someone though, especially when you are older and everyone is married, engaged, what not (i am in my mid 20s and i think i only have 1 or 2 single friends).
but yea maybe try what others have suggested, at the gym or in a class or something. when you aren't looking, you will find her0 -
7 months is an eternity for some people.First step: The correct phrase is "a woman", not "a women." Good grammar and spelling are sexy.
Second: 7 months is not long at all. Slow your roll.
Added that missing comma for you.
If you're going to correct someone's grammar, you should ensure yours is also correct. Just a tip.
I've been single for 2+ years And it's been pretty good 0 -
My bad, woman not women. Most of my buddies are having kids, getting married, and all that jazz. Oh well I'll be the 55 year old with a 6 year old.

Ok why am I having trouble finding a girlfriend. I'm an attractive 31 year old male. Where is the best place to meet a good women???? Have not had too much luck with online and don't want to go boozing at the bars every night.
The free weights area at the gym. Go after the girl who can squat more than you. Just make sure she's single first.
Women who can squat are HAWT!

Stop looking, that's the best way to find someone that's a good match. First a friend, then more if you all hit it off.
It always seems like ppl that are looking are the last to find someone, but those getting on with life meet many along the way.

Go take a class in something you love. Cooking, photography, yoga - anything! Take friends up on offers to go out. Even if you're the 3rd wheel. I hear the supermarket is good too. Work on being as confident and approachable as you can be.0

find a class, learn a language, anything you would like to do. i met a lot of girls just in the street at markets, art exhibitions, stuff like that.
if its a street or market situation, you ask for directions, make 2 minutes of conversation and then ask for their number.
for art, just look at the same thing and say "its amazing isnt it?" then just bull**** for a little bit and say you don't know anything about art, but you kinda wanted to talk to her, and since she seems nice, maybe you could hang out sometime.
this also works in the supermarket, pet store, you name it.
its a numbers game. you never know who you might let walk by you. the more women you approach that are to your taste, the more numbers you will get and the more dates you will go on.
also it helps to dress nice, smell good, fresh breath, be nice and smile.0 -

Yes, why can't there be guys at Zumba? I am sure that some girls might like guys who dance?0 -
For me, ahh yea a bit forward. lolMy bad, woman not women. Most of my buddies are having kids, getting married, and all that jazz. Oh well I'll be the 55 year old with a 6 year old.
Do women find it strange for instance if you see them in the grocery store and just tell them your name and that you find them attractive?
Maybe start with Hi.
Be casual, don't try so hard and you'll find a friend, seriously I think the trouble ppl have is acting desperate and trying to hard, major turnoff for Women. Don't know if that also applies for guys but I wouldn't doubt it. Nothing less attractive than the smell of desperation :noway:
Here's a tip:
For starters fill out your profile on here so anyone offering advice can perhaps make it more personalized, also some women are into cyber meets ... Personally I like the real deal, in person, get to know one another etc. But to each his own
But seriously? Nothing wrong with practicing by filling out your MFP profile... ya never know... lots of girls on the hunt on here... you'll know the ones.. by their profile photo!:noway: :laugh:0 -
Yeah *****3s love to be picked up on craigslist0

@davd - It'd be strange but depending on how exactly you did and the tone, it could fall into the funny strange category that leaves you both at least laughing and in a good mood.0 -

ummm maybe just a little bit it depends if you come off as a creeper or something. but really there's no better line than a simple hello and a friendly smile.0 -
Try Meetup.com. It's great for singles or for people that just want to hang out with other people with similar interests, i.e. runners, cyclists, crafters, moms, etc.0

yah. confidence. nonchalance. stuff like that.0 -
Ask the females in your life that are married/in relationships if they have any nice, single friends. Married women love to hook up their single friends.0

No.Met my husband at work.
So did he help advance your career?
He knocked me up and I lost my job. He's a jerk.
Did he show you his tootsie roll?0 -

Im taking pole classes weekly, did zumba once, it was fun.0 -
Once, a man walked up to me in a grocery store, assured me he was not a stalker and then told me I have a "very pretty shape."
It was creepy.
If you see a woman in a grocery store who interests you, strike up a conversation about something benign. Don't be creepy.0 -

It depends. Depends on how it's said, what is said, body language, and overall vibe.
A smile, mutual eye contact, maybe some authentic chit chat at the produce aisle leading up to the HI, my name is "x" and I just have to tell you ..you have the most awesome blue eyes.
Go from there. If you get a pomegranate thrown at you ..excuse yourself and move on. But! I'm betting you won't if you are a gentleman and genuine. Creepers .. ALWAYS get the pomegranate .0 -

take the chance, just don't be creepy about it. If you don't, you may regret it...0 -

Super creepy. I have only had this happen a few times, but it was so awkward and totally weirded me out. Grocery shopping is not a social activity! Also, never say that you find someone attractive. Complement something specific... the more specifc to the woman the better. Saying "I find you attractive," just sounds like, "I just saw you for the first time a second ago, and I want to *kitten* you."0
