Simple question.... and since I am a heterosexual guy.... how does one actually meet a woman in person anymore? When I first divorced almost 20 years ago it was not difficult to find dates and some nice relationships, but as time has gone by, it seems that online, the age appropriate potential partners willingly chat and email, but wont come out from behind their computer screens. The referrals have slowed since I no longer am in the downtown corporate environment every day, and tripping over suitable candidates just doesnt work.
So where do you search for compatible and age appropriate people who are actually willing to date and are interested in a relationship?

I've met a couple of real nice guys here. Just talk here for a bit, then text and talk on the phone then ALWAYS meet in public several times. I dated one more on then off for a few months in person. And we lived over 2 hours away. But it worked until other stuff came up :'(

It may be a simple question--but, has no simple answer.
As we get older, it is very hard to meet other single people.
I am basically a homebody--never been much for the bar scene. I spend my time with my family and friends--(all who are married.)
Many say a good place is the grocery store--I have never had any luck there though.
I have thought of putting a sign in the rear window of my car--with a throw-away cell phone number. LOL--Just kidding.
Maybe the ladies at work will dare me-- I have never been one to turn down a dare-

Real friends are there for you in the real world--
Good Lord, girlfriend---you even went so far as interfering in people who were trying to make a relationship--
I tried to understand you--But, in the end--you are a sad lady--
well this is not the whats wrong with the 50's group thread..why didn't you post this there instead of a thread ..........everyone else that posted was enjoying thereselves?????
your making trouble and who died and left you queen...?? there hasn't been this negative of a post in a very long time...or i haven't seen a fight in a long time..
i have however seen you come in zoe thread and say hateful stuff...when everyone was having a good time..
i don't know why you are so un-happy ...but if people leave its there choice..
i am a friend of afore mentioned people....and i'm not a friend in low places and yes i do know my abc's.....
you showed a great deal about youself in your statements....

Good morning Purple!
Knock, Stardust, Mrsmiles, Jeff, Kitty, Sweetate, etc., all met someone and moved on. Oby bought a large boat and is enjoying the open waters. (OP, just be yourself, don't put your life on hold, it can happen.)
Some find happiness here or elsewhere and leave. Some like to come here to play the games and have fun. Nothing wrong with that.
I have found some friendships I will hold onto and/or remember for the rest of my life.
People have issues that they are fighting with. It is their issue and has nothing to do with me or anyone else.

Really--get her number if you feel like that--
But, in reality--
You are too scared to meet her--or even talk to her--
As is the norm on DH--
Waste time---Cause you have too much hurt from past relationships.
Cyber flirting-even when it is with yourself makes you feel better.

Wow, she stalks you too, Purple?
Since we are not suppose to use names but are now. I'm not sure what to call you, certainly not "Heart".
Does it really matter if someone types words wrong, if we understand what the other person is saying? Are some people really that anal?
I also have family that I don't see because they live too far away. I still love and care about them. Why are friends any different?
When did having a sense of humor or playfulness, become a bad thing?
Just because someone types something doesn't make it the truth. Do some think we are actually on Zippy's elevator?
We talked once on the phone, ONCE. That does not make us friends nor does it prove that, the one time call, it was really you. How can you say you know me? I don't know you personally at all.
Legaleye, be very careful of who you give your number to.

.....Take dance lessons, some times they are free. Best thing I ever did. some of my old friends from way back are fuddy-duddies and don't want to get out and have fun. Since I started dancing, I have an entire NEW group of friends. Plus I meet new gals almost every week.
Not to mention.....it is really good exercise. Good for you and help you too.
