No, seriously. That whole thing about being more social, varying your routine, being friendly and talking to random people while out and about?
IT WORKS! It works REALLY, REALLY well!
I decided to finally really and truly take that advice to heart, and be more social and active, and holy crap! I've been meeting a LOT of guys!
As an example...
Last night, I was going to go meet a friend for a beer around 9pm. I was going to have dinner at home, but I thought "Eh, it's nice out. I'll just run down the way and have dinner out." So I went to this cute little place a few blocks away that has dining at the bar.
I'm making myself comfortable after placing my order and in walks this REALLY handsome guy. He sees that my bag is in one of the chairs and asks if anyone is sitting there. I tell him no, and that he's more than welcome to sit if he likes. So, he takes a seat and starts flipping through the menu.
Now, admittedly, in case ya'll haven't picked this up from my posts - I'm talkative
So, I struck up a conversation with him. It was something random - I was googling to find out if something really cool that someone told me about my new apartment was actually true. This led to him asking if I was new to the neighborhood, and then we started chatting.
We basically ended up having dinner together right then and there at the bar. We really hit it off and had a great conversation. I had to cut it short (unfortunately) to meet my friend, but before I ran off, I said to him, "This was very nice meeting you here like this. I enjoyed it!" Him: "Yeah, I really liked it too...so, maybe you might want to do it again another time???" Me: "I was hoping you'd ask that"
We exchanged numbers and he texted me this afternoon. YAY!!!!
Make the effort - get out, go to places that are different but that you think you'd really enjoy. Don't be afraid to go alone! Even if you don't meet a guy, you can still have a great time and discover some really great places!!!
