Where to meet single men? I've heard this topic discussed at length with lots of suggestions. The most frequently mentioned to me are online match services, church groups, joining clubs or groups of interest, volunteering, taking classes in technology, attending seminars of interest, summer senior hostel programs, continuing education classes, and foreign language classes.
An obvious advantage of many of these is that while pursuing your own interests, you might meet someone with similar interests which makes sense to me. It's not a contrived meeting that makes anyone feel targeted but puts you in proximity to men with whom you have something in common. How successful this is, I don't know. At the very least, you may meet a new girlfriend or two with whom you share interests
I only know one woman who found a boyfriend/husband through an online match service. Her friends worried she might end up with a serial killer - her life was never in jeopardy but her pocketbook took a bad hit and she lost considerable financial resources due to his mismanagement. Be wary if you go that route and hang onto your money.
My least favorite way of meeting guys from my teens until this minute is the infamous set-up. I hate set-ups! They have to be the most awkward, uncomfortable social situation out there. If I can't manage to meet a man on my own, so be it!
How have you and your friends met men? What advice can you give to other women? What works and what doesn't?
