I'm not talking about the biz...er...hobby.

I'm talking for real... as someone who is sick & tired of the single life and has no interest in returning to the world where you are in truth, little more than an open wallet.

Where are some good places? Normal, nice girls?

I'm feeling all tapped out here!

*chuckle*

I'm just putting out feelers. You never know where an answer will arise.

Actually, to be brutally honest, I wasn't looking for an answer from "the guys" ;)

But yes...looking for love... in the 24 year old range :D

Online has netter zilch...it may be the fastest growing dating scene... but it's also the easiest way to get shot down or misled.

I've tried it for too long...time to get back in touch with reality.

Speed dating? Again...those happen at the meat markets...few if any real prospects there. Sad but true.

Don't give up on either option, CJ.

Speed dating isn't always at the meat markets. Some of them are held in nice restaurants.

As for lavalife, it's a numbers game. I've had far more rejections than connections, but I have ended up dating some quality women this way. There are some unwritten rules to follow, such as sending messages instead of smiles, having your picture posted, and avoid putting your profile under Intimate Encounters.

The main thing is to be patient and not give up so easily. Gotta keep trying anything and everything until you find the one you want. It can take a month, or it can take a lifetime.

I would presume that when you ask about normal girls you mean ones with similar interests as you. The best advice I've ever had was to engage in an activity that you like doing (eg scuba diving, mountain bike riding, etc) and going to group activities where many women will be involved. You'll get to meet women with similar interests and if nothing works out then at least you're still spending time doing an activity you enjoy.:D

Quit looking for love and it'll find you.

^ Good suggestion :D Though I usually shy away from doing anything other than simple chatter with girls in the gym. I feel the gym should be a place where people can let down and work on self improvement & not have to worry about being approached or bothered while there.

Alot of girls have enough trouble just working up the nerve to hit the gym... they don't need harrasment from gym monkeys or lonely guys :p

Catalynn...heh...is that a promise? I always have a pm inbox ;) Why would a nice girl be stuck at the coquitlam mall at those ungodly hours?

NOTE: If I've said it once, I've said it a million times... NOT LOOKING has netted me an extended and very personal relationship with the palmer sisters.

While I'm quite attatched to them, they hardly count as someone I'd liek to form an emotional bond with :p

Hey CJ, another suggestion - take a night class that will have lots of women. Try going to a cooking course!

:D I like cooking...I'm already pretty good at it too :D

Yes... I've long considered night school... cooking, business... but I'm also looking for relatively cheap or free places and ideas :D

In all your activities... in all your endeavours....

Be self-confident and assured without being cocky.

Be friendly and outgoing to everyone in general.

Be quick with genuine praise and approbation.

And smile... always have a genuine, friendly smile on your face.

You will be amazed what comes your way, regardless of the place.

^ tried that. I think the youngest there was 10+ years old than I.

Not what I'm looking for. Then again, perhaps I need to visit a more hip and trendy library...I live in a sleepy suburb after all...

CD shops, bookstores, shopping malls - you might run into a girl with common interests at such places. Say if she picks up a CD you like, tell her it's a good one, and then ask her for her opinion on other CDs. Same thing with books - a favorite author or novel can be good bonding point.

i honestly had my best luck with women in college. It was the happiest time of my life at BCIT. Chick were mature and I wasn't. They loved it, but when a relationships starts thats were my problem lies.

Here. There. Everywhere.
Go back to school...take a nursing course (I know it's hokey but hey - majority of the classes are filled with women) or take something where the majority of members are women...

As for lavalife, I find that you really have to extend your searches and must be really open mided to whomever is out there - mind you, I have pretty much netted out zilch from it...

It'll hit you when you're not looking...

this is the no holds barred all time BEST way to meet chicks of all ages... puppy or dog... take it ANYWHERE and you will be literally swamped with chicks approaching YOU and thinking you are that sweet sensitive guy that they have been looking for ALL their life!!....and if you can put a little coat or some outfit on it before you take it out.. ALL THE BETTER...
NO, NO, NO, NO....

Don't want anything to do with anyone who dresses up their dog in little outfits!

It's wrong... just plain wrong.

I can't comment on where to look

cuz I'm single and would have no credibility in that regard But I feel I sure can tell where NOT to look. Lavalife. Must admit I keep checking it out once in a while cuz it seems the "easiest" way to look but it has been nothing but a complete waste of time so far.
