Where have all the good men gone? If you’re wondering about this, then take a quick look at this list!
1. 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!
2. The market …
Whether it’s the shopping mall or the supermarket these places are loaded up with good looking folks. Chances are you’ll find someone who lives in your neighbor and likes coffee the way you do. A bookstore is another place to meet someone with similar tastes – at least in literature!
3. Online …
This is the latest method of meeting single men. There are several online dating sites where you can check out profiles and photographs. The best one I’ve heard of is PlentyofFish.com, because all the services there are free. But there are others like Match.com, Chemistry.com or Yahoo Personals that too seem to be pretty good, although you’ll have to spend some money on membership. Online dating became a relatively safe method as you can get to know your date before you go out with him.

4. Church …
Church is a good place to meet men who share the same faith and moral grounding. If you’re a single mom, this may be a good place to find serious men who are looking for a life partner rather than a night out on the town.
5. The water cooler …
If you can get past the gossip, the office is a place where romance can be sparked. Being in such close proximity with colleagues can lead to a romantic inclination. Finding someone of the same intellectual level may be easier at the workplace than at the bar!
6. Newspapers …
Check out the newspapers for announcements regarding neighborhood picnics, square dances, tours and special events. These are great places to meet new people, especially single men! Go ahead strike up a conversation. You might end up meeting your spouse.
7. College …
If you’re taking some classes at the local college this could be an opportunity to meet eligible men. There are seminars and short courses that you can participate in. Not only can you get an education but you can find that perfect someone perhaps sitting right next to you.

Very well! Are you dudes agree with me? When I read it I was like: oh man!Sounds great! This is just what I was searching for! All is true, and checked, I’m sure.
I agree. I met my guy through my friends.
[...] than a few years ago. We are starting to accept online dating more and more as a genuine way to meet someone. Still, even now, many people do not take it seriously and ask themselves if it can work at all. [...]
It depends on where you live. If you’re living in not-so-progressive city such as Atlanta, for example, it is difficult to meet eligible men because these areas are not very populated and in addition to that, the crime rate is high, meaning single men are more likely to be sex offenders, (usually over the age of 35 and/or African American). Plus, eligible men, mostly White, in Atlanta often tend to have extremely high, rigid standards of women, due to the traditional Southern Christian culture and their ignorant, aloof personalities. Above all, Atlanta isn’t so diversified and it is the worst place for single women to live in.
In fact, decent guys in Atlanta become easily turned off by confident, intelligent, assertive, and beautiful women, especially if they look foreign to them. They often think of them as being unfeminine, aggressive, and/or slutty. They would rather have a slave than a partner. So, in other words, all you single ladies living in Atlanta or any not-so-progressive city or town, try to move to a more progressive city instead because that’s where you can meet eligible men who are more flexible .
I met my husband at an online Kabbalah class :)) And I know 3 great couples who met the same way, we are friends now :)
PS: It was not Berg/Madonna Kabbalah.
It’s the Classic one, from Bnei Baruch Academy of Kabbalah (based in Israel).

I like # 4. Church …
“Church is a good place to meet men who share the same faith and moral grounding. If you’re a single mom, this may be a good place to find serious men who are looking for a life partner rather than a night out on the town.”
I am a single mom and it’s my prayer that my future husband will have the same level of faith as I have and that we will belong to the same spiritual family. :)
I met my husband through friends. My best friend is married to his best friend, but yet we hadn’t ever met. Finally one day 4 1/2 yrs ago they decided we should meet, all well, the rest is history. We are now happily married. Your friends are good judges of your character, so give it a try.
Met my boyfriend in the office. Hung out a lot at the office cafeteria and coffee station. :D
Dear Lisa (comment above) Atlanta cannot be the worst place to meet men, because I like in Calgary, Alberta and this is BY FAR the worst place in the world to meet men.
Church? Work? These are two of the WORST places to meet people. If you’re in church, concentrate on the word & not meeting men! At work, concentrate on keeping your job and not sparking up drama. My grandpa used to say, “Don’t get your honey where you make your money”.
Hmm… I like that saying of your grandpa, it does make sense. It was such a mess when I had to tell a guy from my work off and he got pissed off with me and there was this weird tension in the office…
Your grandpa may be right after all!
Hi Laila…your posting made me rethink my preference. True huh?! :)
I met my current boyfriend at the park. We both had dogs and they were playing together so it started the natureal conversation between the “parents”. It helps that he was soo hot too ;-)
