Maria33 Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Where are the men at for this question? Help us out guys! I actually have no idea. I'm having the same problem. All the men that I meet are either just out of a marriage or relationship and not looking for one, or they are players. None of the guys I've met at bars have turned into anything. My friends have given me some ideas though. One is, don't go looking for it. Just go on your way, do the things you like to do, find hobbies, go out with friends and you will meet guys. One of my guy friends told me to go shopping at a store like Walmart or Best Buy. He said to ask a guy for their opinion on something you are thinking about buying. Act genuinely interested, smile, listen and talk to them. Of course, check for a wedding ring first. I'm kind of bashful so I have a hard time doing this. My friends husband said hang out at the salad bar at your local grocery store. I haven't tried that one yet. Good luck, I know they are out there somewhere!! Link to post Share on other sites
Lizzie60 Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 How about the phone chat lines (I met many guys like that) or the Internet dating site.. It would be convenient for you since you have a child and it's not easy to go out, blablabla... the best is the Internet IMO. Link to post Share on other sites
Nice Guy21 Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 I'll give it a stab I'm 22 years old and personally I'd rather date a woman w/o kids for the simple fact I'm really not ready to be a dad. But on the flip side I'm not saying I would never date a woman with a child because she could be a good woman and make a great wife one day. I think thats like saying I would never date a woman out of my race. Also somtimes when getting into relationships with women that already have kids sometimes it seems as though there is some ongoing baggage with the childs father and I'm not saying always. I'm pretty sure every man on here will have different views but I'll at least try and be open minded about the situation. Link to post Share on other sites
ddnnee Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 hahaha, this is funny. girls dont need help finding guys. guys just flock to you naturally whether you are walking down the street or just sitting in a book store. my sister walks around and gets offered free starbucks in college....

Steveto Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Funny enough, I have the same question for women. Anyway, I NEVER had any luck with dating sites..I don't know why..but my best friend has a date left right and center..like at least once a week and he's been doing this dating site thing for more than 5 years! ..I'm more of a people person and it's really not difficult at all to meet people (women)...most of the time, there is no chemistry..if I want a relationship..I want it to rock my world, not be in one because I feel I need someone by my side..maybe that's the independent person speaking inside. At my age..you're only asking for trouble picking up at a bar..I find the best way is to meet men OR women is through your friends friends..if that makes any sense? Weddings are real good to meet an SO..social events..interest groups. MY main problem (well..it doesn't sound like a huge problem for most) is that I look young..like in the right clothing and attire..I could seriously pass for 10+ years younger easily..(I'm 32)..Doesn't help that I almost always wear a ball cap. What sort of guy do you attract (or you are attracted to them?) and where do you meet these guys? I would date a person with ONE kid, but it would have to be a very special person who would also (if the cards were played right) would like to also have a child or even children with me. tell me something..do you really want to meet a man that shops at walmart or bestbuy? ok, maybe I am being superficial, but try the library (weird I know), the international news store (one with newspapers from around the world) or in a line at the food court of a large downtown skyscraper..hehe At least you have better luck finding a guy with a good job and an education:cool: Also, you may be attracting the wrong guy by how you dress..I am not saying that you dress like a floozy, but I think you know what I mean. As for me..I would really like to date someone who is serious about their career (career oriented), who can make time for their man as I will do the same for her...entrepreneurial is a bonus...sense of humour..mostly slapstick type or sarcastic..thus far, I have zero luck..no..Let me rephrase..I have REAL BAD LUCK..well at least it's better than having no luck at all. I say WHERE are the women? Obviously what I am doing is not working either. Link to post Share on other sites
