Meeting Someone

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


It’s all over the place, how you can meet available singles, and millions on chat sites everywhere are trying to do that. But how should you go about finding that special someone? What is the best way to meet people?

 

There are several dating ads you will see each day, whether by computer, television, or billboards. But do these sites really work? eHarmony would certainly like you to think that they will get you hooked with someone. But there is no way that everyone uses sites to find someone special.

 

Honestly, the way most meet others is simple: go to places where people with similar interests gather. This is especially easy in college, where there are events almost every day that allow you to meet people. The way to go about using this method is to not go for a date every time. Make sure that it seems that you are fine with just being friends. You won’t meet the girl of your dreams the first night. However, you might meet someone who will introduce you to her. Join clubs, and meet people who share your passions. Go to concerts, and meet people who share your taste in music. The point is to find something in common, so that you have something to talk about. Silence kills.

 

That leads me to my second part. Once you find someone you think may be what you’re looking for, find something you can both enjoy doing together, usually similar to how you met. Don’t refer to this event that you will be sharing as a “date”. Rather, just be content to let it seem to be something entirely platonic. Rushing a relationship will cause problems, if it doesn’t kill the relationship altogether. Good dates are things that can be done with little to no conversation, but can also be conducive to conversation. Something that can fill in silence, but isn’t so loud you can’t hear each other. Putt-putt golf is a good idea, as well as bowling, or just going to get food somewhere. This casual dating period is a great time to get to know the person, and find out what they are looking for in a partner. Don’t allow yourself to be discouraged if things seem to not be moving in the way you want. Perhaps she isn’t what you want, or you’re not what she wants, or maybe she wants to take it slower.

 

The trick that most don’t get when meeting someone is to be outgoing, without being obnoxious. Don’t be so loud that you drive off people, but make sure you aren’t so quiet that people feel awkward trying to talk to you. Also keep in mind that where you meet someone will most likely affect what kind of people you meet. If you go to bars to meet women (or men), think about what kind of people hang out at bars and pubs. If you want someone who is deep, and caring, try somewhere other than clubs and bars. Try art shows, or concerts, or anywhere you think you would like to meet someone. Also, don’t just look at appearance. Be open to dating someone who isn’t a complete super model, because, odds are if you are reading this, you aren’t dating one now. True beauty is within. Remember that everyone gets old.

My final tip for you is to not lose hope. Finding someone for you is not impossible. If you are having serious trouble, try examining yourself. Ask yourself if you seem to be someone that women would want to meet, and consider changing yourself. But never try to be someone you’re not. Even if this seems to work, in the end she will find out who the real you is, and you will be lucky if she is willing to stay after this.

 

I know this sound like a lot to keep in mind, but take it easy. Relax, this is not a test. This is you, being you. Be kind to women, guys. And women, show some respect for yourself. Stay open-minded, and hopeful. You can’t lose at dating unless you give up.
