Today reports on 31 ways to meet a quality man, a list from Pari Livermore, author of 'How to Marry a Fabulous Man'.

1. Give a party

...with a man who has some great friends. You invite the women — he invites the men.


2. Practice recycling

Trade your old beaus with your friends.


3. Get set up

Ask 10 friends you admire to introduce you to someone special.


4. Attend events with beautiful women

They’ll make you sparkle, too. Men flock to them and you can enjoy the overflow.


5. Matchmake your friends

And make sure they reciprocate!


6. Go to parties

...even if you don’t feel like it. Many women who go to parties with few expectations end up meeting their future husbands this way.


7. Gravitate toward the hot spots

...at a party. Stand next to the group of people who look like they are having the best time.


8. Be friendly at your grocery store

If a man hovers around the pasta, give him your grandmother’s recipe for tomato sauce.


9. Go for the friends

If a guy has cool friends, throw him a surprise birthday party.


10. Give back

Donate time to nonprofit organizations in your community.


11. Find extra-cirricular activities

Join every organization that interests you.


12. Date online

Sign up with an Internet dating service. Try niche ones for people with similar interests such as religion, politics or the arts.


13. Get sporty

Observe or participate in athletic events. Join a ski, volleyball or tennis club.


14. Take a night class

Choose a subject you’re interested in that you think would also appeal to someone with lots of testosterone.


15. Be a flirt

Do a little flirting if you’re in a safe environment. Don’t be afraid to stare at an attractive man from across the room.


16. Get political

Offer your services to an election campaign or political group. Most men love politics.


17. Attend a house of worship

Take part in their events. If they don’t have a singles group, offer to start one.


18. Host a salon

Invite artists to display their work and performers to perform in your home. Invite their friends.


19. Buy a dress

...that makes you feel beautiful and wear it often.


20. Turn up the kitchen heat

Learn to cook a few simple, delicious meals. Start a cooking class for singles.


21. Always look your best

You never know when or where you’ll meet someone.


22. Know what you want

List the three most important qualities you admire in a man. Only date men who have those qualities.


23. Be open-minded

If a man has the qualities you want, even if he’s not perfect, make an effort to date outside your comfort zone.


24. Be your best self

Polish the facets of your life, both skills and attitudes.


25. Write your own commercial

List 10 things that are wonderful about you.


26. Forgive yourself

Don't carry baggage.


27. Become an expert

...on a subject that interests you.


28. Reinvent yourself

Lose some weight, buy a new wardrobe, develop new interests or break old habits.


29. Be positive

Put on a happy face, and don’t gossip.


30. Don’t be too aggressive

Why serve yourself to a man on a silver platter? Make it more difficult; give him the can and let him open it.


31. Visualize what you want

Conjure visions of a successful courtship and a beautiful marriage.
