It’s excellent advice!
Here’s some more practical advice from Suzy Weiss on where to go to meet men:
- Make a list of all the places men tend to go, and you will want to show up at those places.
- Find the ‘how to classes’ in your area. A how to invest in real estate class is a great place to start when you look at the percentage of male versus female students in attendance. Register for the class and don’t forget to initiate a conversation with some of the students. Ask a couple of these gentlemen about their investing experience and what advice they could offer to you.
- If you love to play golf, check out golf clubs where you can get involved in tournaments or different foursomes.
- You could volunteer to be on the social committee for the club, great way to meet new people. All volunteer organizations offer huge opportunities to meet lots of new people. You will want to be active and take on some leadership roles within the organization.
- Classes and lectures are perfect places to meet a diverse group of people who probably know lots of other interesting people much like themselves.

Here are some answers posted in reply to that question posted on the eharmony.com forum:
I have decided to join some meetup.com groups. I had been going to a political group I found through meetup and there were a few men, but none I was interested in. So now I’m trying some that I hope will attract men (and people in general) who are passionate about the same things as me – wine and food, intellectual discussion (through book groups), atheist/agnostic groups. I am going to limit my participation to groups in the largest metro area, not in the suburbs. Much better participation in the city. . .
I have looked at some meet-up groups around my area. There is one that just goes and tries out different places to eat around here. I thought that would be fun. Someone else was telling me about a ping-pong meet-up…that sounded really fun too! I did a hike with one meet up group.
I don’t get it. I run across interesting, attractive and quite a few unattached men and women every day. In fact the only way I figure you can’t is the hang around at home, don’t be involved in your local community and don’t talk ith anyone. What do you do when you go shopping? Don’t you ever talk with store holders, other shoppers. What bus, trains. They are so crowded that I can’t help but trip over people. My sons scout group – same. Catching up with friends at pubs, theatre. I never date folk a work but there are people there too. Obviously. Sometimes I crave jut being at home, quiet! You might check out the book “bowling alone.” Yes, we do live in an insular, socially restricted, urban lifestyle where we don’t often know our neighbours names. But it need not be so. Tonight I hired a DVD to watch as I want to stay at home. But to do so I learnt the young store clerks name (Katie), and mentioned my appreciation that they had a Russian film in I had missed at the cinema and discuss the lack of popularity of subtitled films. I’m sure you can introduce yourself to your neighbour, leave the car at home and get out into your on space. But don’t do to meet people. Do it because you like being amongst your community. If you don’t, it is best you don’t find a partner. It won’t last, and you’ll only make someone else miserable.
My main thing is that I do things that I enjoy not necessarily to meet a guy. So I go to coffee shops, book stores, I bike, I run, and while doing those things I wouldn’t mind being approached by a guy. I’ve been approached while doing all those things and what I would say is that I absolutely respect guys who have the guts and nerve to initiate a conversation or ask for my number. Good luck, there are many women out there who are open to being approached while at these places.
