I'm not really dating anyone right now and I'm kinda tired of meeting men online, so I decided this morning I would go out tonight and try to meet at least 1 man the "old fashioned" way.
My friends are all going out on dates tonight and the one who isn't said he's not in the mood to go out ... sooo I guess that means I'm solo! I've never done this before and I'm kinda nervous. There's this one girl friend who I used to go out with before she moved and when it was just us men would approach me often or invite us to sit with them. That never really happened with anyone else I'm ever out, probably because I was typically out on dates or with male friends?
Anyway, I'm crossing my fingers that the same thing happens tonight! I've picked out a Jazz bar to start and if that one doesn't work out there's a rock bar near and if that one doesn't work there's a regular bar, then a country bar.
I'm going to try my best to look pretty and approachable lol. Wish me luck!
This´s actually quite common in my country.
Bars that are hosting events (like film screenings, music, etc.) are great and provide easy conversation starters.
Yeah, hopefully I'll have fun no matter what. Im not really a bar person or a drinker, but I figure its a good place to start.
I find it interesting that at my age (late 20s) I've never met a man while out. Since I was a teenager its always been online, but I've come to find this has been bad. They all seem great and relationship minded initially, but for the most part all anyone has wanted was a hookup or temporary ego boost. Im starting to feel like I must not have anything to offer but my looks and body and I don't like that feeling.
Might be unlikely that anyone at a bar would be any different, but like I said its a start in a new direction.

A good plan, Going to a place by yourself where socializing is almost guaranteed. The music factor helps especially as ut will be easier to break the ice. As you might be going to several bars: pace yourself, And drink until you feel good then don't drink no more!

Maybe you have a misconstrued view of yourself and it makes you seem unapproachable?
If you are late 20's and apparently have "looks and a body" to offer I find it very hard to believe youve never been approached. My girlfriend got hit on blatantly three times just yesterday at the grocery store. All by gross guys but still, I find it hard to believe it has never happened or theres more to it.
Maybe it's happening and you dont realize it?
