where and how to meet people?


Question Posted Monday May 3 2010, 8:55 pm

I'm 19/f and I live in Miami, Florida. I am a college student. At school and such, I do get some attention. I don't mean to sound arrogant or anything, but I was a model and I try to take good care of myself (workout every day, i always try to look descently dressed, made up). But, it seems like I'm having a lot of trouble meeting people that I would like to date. I go to a big school and I'm sure there are some cute guys, I just can't find them!! I can get into some clubs here, but that's not exactly the crowd I want to hang around and would definately not go there by myself! The night clubs here are not exactly like others. They're quite dangerous. But anyway, it's really hard. I did look at some dating sites, but I didn't like what I saw. I don't mean it in the sense that I thought the people were ugly (i'm not like that, i'm not much into looks), but they were just using inappropriate language, posting inappropriate pictures... not a good impression you want to get of someone right before MEETING THEM! lol. I just need a good way to meet guys. And a safe one. If you have any ideas, please let me know. And if you live in Miami, and can tell me some safer "hot spots' other than South Beach, let me know.

Thanks

Well, a really good way is to join clubs/activities. It might sound nerdy, but its actually a great way to meet people because you already have something in common to talk about and you will be in the same place at the same time every week (or whenever the group meets) so you'll have the chance to build relationships in a safe environment. Also, a lot of bigger cities will have "singles" leagues for various activities. Do an internet search. You can find volleyball, softball or other leagues that are just for fun. I used to do it (back before I was married) and it was always fun. A lot of times we'd go out for food or something after. But start by thinking about the things you are interested in. Reading? Join a book club. Animal rights? Join a group. Whatever it is, you can find a group for it. Even if there aren't many guys in the group, another way to meet good guys is to meet good girls. Then they invite you to parties or introduce you to their guy friends and then.... ta da!!! you meet Mr. Right. Hope I helped. Good luck.
