Unless you have hot friends and they are just wingman-ing for their boys who are after your friends.

Plus you went to UCLA which is obviously a huge downside.

Fight On!
I used to be...not sure what happened. I have met a few people playing sports in the last couple of weeks. No one I am interested in but at least the guys weren't too annoying.

Go to events where a lot of single guys will be. For example, the Greenwood Car Show on 6/25, Seafair, Beerfest.

Lol @ the local disco. Coming from the same dude that says to meet guys at church groups. Something tells me they are... Old.

Here's the thing girl, a lot of Seattle guys talk a big game to their friends but the reality of he situation is many have little confidence when it comes to being forward and taking the leap to ask a girl out. Almost every single of my Seattle friends native to wa have this problem. They're all good looking guys by any girls standards but Seattle is much more reserved than a lot if cities.

Here's what I'd do if I were: do not ask them out yourself, but give them enough obvious clues or comments to give them the little confidence boost they need in their heads that tell them "go for it dude!" hint that you wanna hang out sometime or see them again or hint that you think they're cute or hint they you feel like you have a lot in common.

I've noticed Seattle guys have no bar game because Seattle girls, unlike most girls, will often go to a bar and anytime a dude talks to them they'll act like the guy is crazy. Seen it a million times. Weirdest thing. It makes guys unconfident but what the guys don't realize is it's the girls who are weird not them. CHicks acting all high and mighty, exclusive, snobby etc... Seattle = more introverted than any city I've ever been. So give those guys the green light to ask you out in a subtle way.

Source: lived in Seattle 14 years through high school and college.

Oh and Seattle girls: loosen the hell up in bars. Jesus. Seattle guys: grow some balls.

Typos due to being typed all on my iPhone. Longest iPhone thing I've ever typed...

Don't hint. As I look back on my single life now that I have more experience, I recall so many times when a girl was giving hints that I didn't pick up on.

It's equal opportunities these days. Ask for their email/phone details if you like them, don't wait for them to ask for yours.
