The Bar

This may be one of the oldest ways to meet a man, but it still works. Free flowing beer makes it easier to approach your target! However, if 'commitment' is on your mind, then look elsewhere!

UPD:

While bars may have that laid-back and convivial atmosphere that lowers inhibitions, remember that such environments can often lead to short-term connections. The chances are you'll meet someone who's out for a good time, not necessarily a long time. To increase your odds of finding Mr. Right over Mr. Right Now, consider the type of bar you're visiting. Craft beer pubs or wine bars often attract a more mature and thoughtful crowd, potentially opening up the space to encounter individuals with shared interests in finer experiences and perhaps, serendipitously, in long-term partnerships too.

Weddings

I know that the common belief is that all single men at weddings just want to get laid but I beg to differ.

Just don't get too drunk and you'll see what I mean.

25

Dance Class

I know you're probably wondering why dance classes are on the list of best places to meet eligible men since they usually have more women than men but it's definitely worth a shot considering you will be forced to physically interact with potential hotties.

31

Walking the Dog

Most guys love dogs, so when you're walking your pooch, you've got a great opportunity to meet one. Big dogs like Labradors and Retrievers are always a great draw, but if you have a little dog, don't worry. Many men have a secret love for the little dogs as well. If you're friendly and make eye contact (and if your dog doesn't try to mark his territory in an awkward spot), you should be golden!

32

The Hardware Store

You'll be surprised at what a great place it is to meet men. First of all, almost all the clients are men and so are the sales assistants. And being a woman, you'll find it natural to ask for help that cute stranger who will gladly explain you the difference between this and that tool. Who knows, he might ask you out for coffee to continue the conversation...

UPD:

The Hardware Store can be a great place for single women to meet eligible men. This is especially true for women who are looking for a more practical man. With almost all of the customers and staff being male, it can be a great place for women to find someone who can help them around the house.

The store can also be a great place to start conversations. Women can ask questions about the different tools and products available in the store and the men working there will be more than happy to help. This can be a great way to start a conversation, and who knows, maybe the man you’re talking to will ask you out for coffee afterwards.

The Hardware Store is also a great place to find men who are interested in the same hobbies as you.

Not only will you be able to find men who share your interests, but you’ll also be able to find men who are knowledgeable about the products and tools available in the store.

33

The Tech Store

Tech stores are men magnets. I do not know a single guy who would pass on the opportunity to come and take a look at some new weird plasma TV or sound system or whatever it is he's read about on his favorite tech blog. So take it from me, most customers in tech stores are also men, and many of them are very good looking. Now, you'll surely see a couple of married guys (of course), but you'll be surprised at the number of single guys browsing these stores. Give this one of the best places to meet eligible men a try and you won't regret it.

34

Museums

Now, I know this might sound a little cliche, but what's the best way to meet someone, when you are visiting a new city than going to a local museum. There are hundreds of single men who, just like you, want to check the museums off their lists when they travel to a new city and believe me, they'll be happy to have a conversation with a cute girl, especially when there are so many conversational pieces around. Museums are also fantastic for meeting artsy guys and foreigners, so if you are feeling adventures, this is the place to meet eligible men.

UPD:

Museums are a great place for single girls to meet eligible men, as many men visit them when they travel to a new city. Not only are they a great way to learn about the local culture and history, they also offer the opportunity to meet interesting people. Many museums have special events and classes that are designed to bring people together and create a social atmosphere.

Aside from meeting other singles, museums are also a great place to meet artsy guys and foreigners. The art and artifacts on display can be a great conversation starter and provide a way to connect with someone from a different culture. In addition, many museums have special exhibits that feature foreign artists, which can provide a great way to learn about different cultures and art forms.

The best part about meeting someone in a museum is that it is a non-threatening environment. Unlike a bar or club, there is no pressure to be anything other than yourself. You can simply enjoy the artwork and conversation without worrying about being judged or rejected.

35

The Bowling Alley

I know you probably think, how old the guys in the bowling alley would be? 60? 70? But don't be so quick, I have personally seen a couple of times guys coming in in groups for a little game. And may I say, some of them were very cute.

36

The Golf Course

Ditto on this one, although golfing can be quite a bit more boring than bowling. The difference is, the course isn't so loud and crowded either, and you can really get a chance to talk to a guy. If he looks really into the game, let it pass, but if he's with some friends and they're chatting together as much as golfing, go for it!

37

Casinos

Although loud, casinos can also be great places to meet eligible men. You don't want to talk to a guy when he's right in the middle of a heavy game or anything, but if you're both playing Blackjack, if you're sitting at the slots, or one of you is throwing dice, then you can start a conversation. It'll be casual, but that can lead to other things.

38

Concerts

Concerts are a fantastic place to meet eligible men, especially if it's your favorite performer. You will instantly have an interest in common and when you are a fan of something it's so easy to bond with the other person. The connection sparks instantly, so try this place to meet eligible men and see who you meet!

39

At a Club

Now, many guys just go to clubs to hook up. A lot of them aren't necessarily looking for someone to date. However, there are exceptions to every rule, and that is the only reason nightclubs made it onto the list. You have to have an eagle eye, but if you spot this guy, you'll be glad. He likes to dance and hang out and have a good time, but he isn't the boy who's only into ranking up as many one night stands as possible.

40

The Beach

The beach is not just a great place to meet eligible men, it's a fantastic place! See, guys who go to the beach generally fall into three different categories. They go alone, and depending on what you see them doing, that probably means they're single (so if you can think up an approach, do it!). They go with a group of guy friends, and again, you can typically tell by their behavior if they're single. Or, they go with their wives or girlfriends. If you see a guy spreading lotion on someone else, just play it safe and scratch him off your list!

41

At a Cigar Bar

I don't know many girls who like cigar bars, but I know plenty of guys who do! Sure, you're going to be entering forbidden territory, but it might well be worth it. These places have tons of eligible guys, and the kicker is, most of them think any girl in a cigar bar is automatically cool!

UPD:

Cigar bars are a great place for single women to meet eligible men. Not only do cigar bars attract men who are looking for interesting conversation and company, but they also provide a unique atmosphere and a wide selection of cigars to choose from.

The atmosphere of cigar bars is often very relaxed and laid-back, making it the perfect place to chat and get to know someone. The conversations that can be had in a cigar bar are often more interesting than those found in a typical bar or club. Plus, the presence of cigars in the room adds a bit of sophistication and mystery to the atmosphere.

In addition to the great atmosphere, cigar bars often have a wide selection of cigars to choose from. This allows for a wide range of tastes and preferences, making it easy to find the perfect cigar for you and your date. Plus, the selection of cigars can provide a great conversation starter, allowing you to get to know your date's tastes and preferences.

Finally, most men in cigar bars assume that any woman present is automatically cool. This can be a great confidence boost for single women who are looking to meet someone new. Plus, it is a great way to break the ice and start a conversation.

42

A Sushi Bar

Surprisingly, more and more men start loving sushi. And nowadays, when you pop into a nice such restaurant you see more men and women. Some of them are having business dinner, others are meeting with a friend, but there are those, sitting at the bar, having dinner after work on their own - and those are you could easily sit next to and perhaps strike a conversation if you feel like it. Or he'll be the first to talk, guys are usually like that - they catch your eye and they just start talking to you.

43

The Bookstore

Meeting men at a bookstore is just tops, especially if you're a big reader. You know he shares your interests, you automatically have plenty to talk about, and since most bookstores provide little chairs and comfy couches, you already have a cozy spot to get to know one another. What could be better?

44

A Networking Event

A networking event can be dull as hell or it can be fun and interesting. To make sure it's the latter, take a friend of yours from work with you, make sure your hair's done and you are dressed nicely and you'll definitely turn a few heads. A lovely place to meet eligible men, if you ask me!

So, do you ladies know about other great places to meet eligible men? Please do share ...

Where Thoughts and Opinions Converge

Maybe at a hardware store on a Friday after work.

I usually look for love in all the wrong places.. 8yrs ago i found what i thought was the perfect man. Now, i know he cares for me but doesnt want to marry me ..when i asked he said never. Hurt my feelings like you couldnt believe. Im a good woman, honest, caring and i work hard. Ive been there for him through thick and thin, health wise but im not worth marrying? All i can say now is wow and kick rocks!

I am a 28 year old woman, just recently broke up with someone after 8 months, I ve had numerous relationships, but this last one was the hardest to figure out by a long shot, he had very close relationship with his sister which put my nose out of joint cos most of the things he should have been doing with me he did with her instead. What didnt help was he lived with her and was very reluctant about having me round when she was there so therefore I only saw him friday/saturday nites most of the time or during college hollidays, at these times she would be at their mums. He then told me after we d been together 5 or 6 months he would go to Canada for 2 months in the summer if he hadnt found a job as he had family willing to put him up, I was really upset as he didnt ask me what I thought bout it or care bout being away from me for that long. I had a descusion about all this with him but he couldnt see my point and didnt seem to care so I split up with him shortly atfer and he has gone to canada...... By the way, I forgot to mention that a couple of weeks before telling me bout canada, he took me to spain, told me he loved me and said if I ever left him he d be really hurt! I can tell you he almost seemed glad when I finished it! What the hell was all that about?........
