I just go out with the girls (when I can) and have a good time. The men I meet (just like you) are usually drunk and can't string a sentence together! Good luck with your search

The problem is, most blokes go to the pub for the sole purpose of having a few beers.

And if its not for a few beers they're out soley for one thing which is equally as bad

Oh I like this thread !

I have tried a few sites, almost all men on them start with, hi.....would like to get to know u....and end up with ....what are you wearing?!

I give up !

Happy ...but still wonder if there are any nice men left in the world?

Meeting people is dead easy all you ned is a nice smile and eye contact plus being in a place where the sort of person you would like to neet hangs out. If you want a drunk loser the pub is fine otherwise avoid. Join clubs or even flirt in tescos or on the bus its easy. The best chat up line for either sex? Hi and a genuine smile.
If female hunt in pairs and sit at right angles so bloke can come in and chat you up.

Become a clipboard like me! I'm a market/social researcher......

I'm happily married and not 'looking' - yet I get serious invites out for dates all the time (about 2 or 3 times a week on average) by guys I happen to come across and interview as part of my job - I'm freelance and work alone!
I wear a wedding ring, but this fails to deter!

Believe me, there are plenty of top quality men out there!

Are we allowed to use this thread to ask if anyone fancies chatting on msn?
Maybe a group chat? to swap ideas!

That would be a great Idea could someone let up know I guess if we pm'd our msn addy that would be ok .

Im sure you can PM msn addy to each other. Dont bother with me im not looking but I am surprised that people find it so difficult to communicate face to face these days.

I have to say that I think the above tactics are too obvious and nothing more than predatory, which in my recent personal experience of the author is accurate.
I think the best way to meet people is by chance, naturally. Don't do anything specific to try and make it happen, because the more you want it to, and the more you chase it, the more desperate you look and the less likely it will actually happen - at which point your self esteem will be in tatters and you won't be emotionally ok
Try to make friends with men first, dont go straight in for the romance. The best way to get to know a man is to be a platonic friend with him first. Its easy to get over excited and emotionally attached when you think you've met someone you can really relate to - those first few months of a relationship when everything is new and fresh and exciting are the most dangerous - because the highs of the relationship are often based on expectation and anticipation and can easily mask the true person, good or bad
