Where do you find people to date?

I’ve been single for a long time and looking to get back into the dating scene. I’ve always got a decent amount of matches on dating apps but I kind of dislike them. Where do yall that are currently married/dating find the best success, still dating apps?

my friend met her husband on a dating app she put in what she wanted into the filter and found him

@lucasll so just cause you like hiking they have to too? there's more important things in life imo

@GoFish No that was an example. More so like everything I enjoyed they disliked and vice versa. Might just be my area but a lot of girls love bars, drinking, traveling, etc which I’m not into.

@lucasll look outside your area then

Shopping malls (That were I met my partner in crime)

Grocery stores (saw that on Happy Days)

Church

Your friends can set you up

Your clubs you join. Like a book club, dance class, at the gym, cooking class (you get the idea)

Volunteering you can find people

Post add in the newspaper under personals. This is how we used to do it back in the 1960s: I trailered it for you so you get an idea on how to do it

(They charge per letter - so what your really saying is this)

@HumanEarth Thanks for the good ideas! The newspaper one sounds cool tbh. I’m not in any clubs atm but I guess I could join some, I’ve always had a lot of friends so I never thought of joining one. I wouldn’t be opposed to things like shopping malls or the grocery store, I just feel like I’d seem like a creep but perhaps just overthinking it.

Dance classes, night clubs, workshops, even asking close friends is a start

You're a man. Go outside and pursue women.
lucasll · 18-21, MNew
@Selah I guess maybe I just gotta get better at things like pickup lines and ask a ton. I don’t really mind rejections, but I am an anxious person.
Selah ·
@lucasll your drive to mate has to be stronger than your anxiety. This is normal animal stuff. You need to spend time in the woods. I think.
lucasll · 18-21, MNew
@Selah I do honestly spend a lot of time in nature. I also have been becoming more self confident, I used to have an acne ridden face and have done much better at fixing that, among other things.

What is a dating scene?
lucasll · 18-21, MNew
@emiliya Just like getting back into dating in general than just being single lol
Notsimilarreally · 31-35, F
I used to use dating sites.
lucasll · 18-21, MNew
@Notsimilarreally Did they work out well for you?
nobodyishome · 31-35, F
Everywhere. Naak mei dum
Walmart's good place to start,
@DancingStarGoddess next time you go shopping look for the old men in the veggie dep,
@jackrabbit10 there's usually a bunch, i always see them over and over like they're circling but they hardly have anything in their carts.
@DancingStarGoddess that's funny,

Who uses dating apps?
emiliya · 26-30, F
@lucasll School? Work? Anywhere?

Will you and your girlfriend have babies? I hope you won't spend years messing around “dating.”
lucasll · 18-21, MNew
@emiliya I’m probably just overthinking it, I just don’t want to make things like classes or work awkward.

And on your thing about babies, yes I plan on having them. And I’m not someone into hookup culture or having sex on the first date, I honestly want to only have 1 girl in my entire life.
emiliya · 26-30, F
@lucasll You are a good man. Find a good woman.
Northwest · M
I believe the married folks, or dating, are not looking on dating apps for matches.

Then again, they may be.
lucasll · 18-21, MNew
@Northwest True, I just meant like how did they find their significant other.

1. Church.
2. Overseas.
3. Cousins???
lucasll · 18-21, MNew
@Tastyfrzz I guess Church is a valid place. I don’t have any issue with people here so I don’t think I’d look overseas. I know you’re probably joking but definitely not cousins 😂
