    My wife is a yoga instructor. She's conned me into going a few times. Always 20 ladies to 1 guy there... Plus you get to see how flexible they are.

    *Since you're in Chicago they are Chicago specific.

    The weather is getting nice.. there are women ALL over the lake front path! Go jogging/biking/rollerblading... There are tons of places to stop and enjoy the lake. Women love a guy in shape who is active. I'd totally talk to a guy in that situation, if I was single.

    Wow, I barely remember making this thread last night thanks to alcohol, lol.. but yeah, funny thing about that is I have been jogging along the lake, and 20 minute jogs have turned into hour long jogs because of all the hotties to look at!.. but realistically, you can't just stop one and get a date. Not gonna happen.

    Talking to EVERY girl will only make you look desperate.

    Go out with friends of the opposite sex. They'll think you're harmless and (in my experience) do their best to get your attention.

    But taking advice from a single dude might not be the best way to go.

  • I'm with the majority here; concerts truly are a great place to meet really cool people. It also makes it soooo much easier to start up conversation. Try going a little earlier and partying a little later then you normally would. After all, you wouldn't want a chick with bad taste in music, would you?

    I met my fiance after a PJ concert.

    church

    That wouldn’t work. They would just be perplexed as to why I was bursting into flames for no apparent reason…

    i'd say long cross-country flights because i've heard that it does happen but i don't have any firsthand experience.

    Fear not. Pretty soon they'll all be going through divorce and then they'll all be available again. I'm telling you, it's easier in your early 30's than when you were younger, if you take care of yourself physically & careerwise.

    pearl jam shows!

    Ugh. I met my ex at a PJ show and that resulted in the worst year and a half of my life. Sure, that could have happened no matter where I met her, but the experience has me wary of doing that again.

    I don't think there's anything wrong with the internet route. I've been doing that on and off for a while. Fact is, it's not as if your relationship would be online. You'll meet these women and have a regular relationship, just as if you'd have met them elsewhere.

    As far as I'm concerned, anything that helps you meet more people can't possibly be a bad thing.

    If I shouldn't be meeting girls online, and I shouldn't be meeting girls at bars, then where the hell should I be meeting them at my tender, still young but almost old age???

    I almost agree with them because he girls I've been meeting online have been single for a looong time, and not just because they wanted to be single..

    Theres nothing wrong with meeting someone online or at a bar. Its just like meeting people anywhere, there are plenty of quality people but you have to look for them and avoid the weirdos.

    I will tell you how to meet girls. I was at a park in Burlington VT one summer, and this guy had a cute dog out on a leash. He was with a friend (guy). Girls kept stopping to see the dog. He told his friend 'see, a dog is a chick magnet', and it looked like he was right.

    Go do things you are interested in and then strike up conversations with people. For example....if you like the arts go to a museum and talk to people. You never know who or where you might make a connection.
