Where Do You Meet Men in Real Life?

Hi All:

I'm still seeing the guy I met a few weeks ago, but if things don't work out, I have deleted all my OLD profiles. I'm getting burned out and bummed out on OLD.

My questions is: where do you meet guys in real life? I've done all the usual: volunteering (which is fine, but there are usually a bunch of women), attending singles functions, etc.

Any ideas???

I m also done with OLD. I deleted all my profiles after I met quite a few weirdos...
I meet guys through my work (usually suppliers or partner companies) all work in IT industry so no interest in dating them...
I donot date someone from work no matter what!! if he is another Brad Pitt I would find another job before dating him.

I meet people through language training, dancing class, gym and Hicking group. Also I m member of meetin.org a website that helps new people in town meet with others of similar interests...
I met all my Ex's in school. I m going for PhD next September. I m sure I will meet someone interesting there!
For now,I havent met anyone I m attracted to and think is worth a chance!! Reason: many men dont know where to look for women other than in the bar/club which I will never try.

It is below freezing in Canada and people hibernate so add this to the obstacles.
I m hoping in the Spring/Summer with so many festivals and events I will meet someone interesting who appreciates Art, is good looking , have some self esteem, is educated and cultured! chances are higher in such events. Plus because it is live: what you see is what you get. so you can eliminate unattractive candidates in split of a seconds!
