Dating: Ways to meet other single people when you are in your 20s


Question Posted Saturday August 18 2012, 9:35 pm



What are some ways to meet people if you are single and in your 20's? I'm not a huge club type so that's really not an option. I was just wondering if anyone had any pointers on where to look. I don't trust dating sites..

Maybe you could join like a club like a book club. Maybe you could take dancing lessons...join a group in your community. Maybe at a job. I met my boyfriend through one of my close friends. So networking is always good! Good luck!

I'm not sure what you mean by "not the club type" as there are two definitions of "club". There is club as in clubbing going out to bars and the like. Then there is clubs as in hobbies and special interest clubs.


I have often recommended that finding a club or recreational activity that is of interest to you is a wonderful place to meet like minded men and women. The simple reason for this is you have be the very nature of the club or activity already have something in common with which to break the ice.

I generally propose that you sit down with a pen and paper and list all those things that interest you. Include religious activities if they interest you. Once you have made your list go back and number them 1 through however many you have.

Then take your local weekly town newspaper and searching the Internet start at number 1 and see what club or activities are available in your area that are of interest to you and when.

If it is a club you generally can attend several meetings before having to join and pay any fee they may require. If it is an activity you can decide if you wish to go or not. The same with religious activities and groups.

Having a common basis in which to communicate is a great foundation for friendship and can lead to great relationships with members of the opposite sex.

Clubbing going to bars is generally a hit and miss type things as finding a like minded person. Frankly these type of places are generally a booty call. IF a relationship does develop it generally fails once the newness of the booty call wears off and you find you have nothing in common.

I hope I have offered some help.

Clubs will never work. Bars and pubs are less likely as well in my opinion.

Try:
- Getting set up with friends of your friends
- Go to places where nice girls hang out and are more easy to approach like bookstores, cafes, etc. They're easier to talk to there and you don't have to approach them trying to dance with them like a buffoon...
