Just curious of places I can go to meet young, professional women. I'm not into "grungy" bars with smoking and loud music. Looking more for an upscale, classy place....keeping in mind I don't want to go where they are stuck-up either. Any suggestions? Thank you in advance!

I hate these questions. There is no one place where a bunch of hot, smart, high income women who are not stuck up just hang out waiting for guys to show up. Sorry. How about you start with making friends to hang out with, and go about meeting women through them or when you are out?

I'm pretty sure if there was a hot, intelligent, goal oriented, single woman out there (and not stuck up), she's not waiting somewhere for you to show up. Also, if you do act like this when you meet someone like her, she's gonna know your motif from a mile away and run!

Before you all comment..nah - not jaded, I'm fairly well off at this point in this department - just a little perspective from 8 years as a part time nightclub DJ...I've seen more than you care to know

Have fun!

-VJ

I appreciate all of your replies. I've lived in the Altanta area for almost a year and a half now. Most of the people I know are people I work with, despite a few friends I've known for a while that just happen to live here as well. Anyway, I don't have an odd motif, just simply curious if you all know of a couple places that I've never heard of. Thank you.

Hello! I am in the same situation as you. I have been in Atlanta for about 3 months now and I am having trouble finding girls I click with. Keep in mind I travel about 3 weeks a month so I really have not been able to put myself out there too much. I live in the midtown area and I have been out around here a few times BUT lets just say girls half naked, dancing on bars is not really by scene!! I have gone out in the Virginia Highlands a few times as well, and although I love the atmosphere there the girls seem to be just mean. In my expierience (again it is extremely limited), there is always a group of girls eating dinner the in corner just miserabley staring at everyone and making fun of them. Regardless, there are going to be these type of people in every city across the country but I can relate to the fact it can be hard to feel welcome by other females in Atlanta. I have had some luck meeting people through a womens young professional organization, the High museum, as well as an outdoors meetup group. The people I have met though such organizations are extremely welcoming, fun, ambitious and seem to enjoy similar activities to myself.

You have to initiate conversation with every single woman you come across when you are out and about anywhere, anytime. Don't simply rely on venues or events. Pick them up and hit the hole hard.

I pray this is some euphemism that I haven't heard of. If not, then I pray none of my daughters ever encounters you

Midtown, Virginnia Highlands and Decatur is a good start. Much higher ratio of professional single women in these areas.

How much money do you have? How do you dress? What do you drive? Are you a good listener?
