    Where's a good place to meet single people ? Just wondering what people's views are. The old pub scene can be alright, but what pubs would you recommend ?

    Other options ?

    Good question! Most people would suggest the clubs/societies route but that's a lot harder/more expensive to get involved in outside of college...

    Actually, there's your answer - go back to college!

    drama groups, charity organisations, church groups, sports activities, basically clubs or any group of people together for one task is going to have single people there.

    I'm sure it does work. If it didnt do you think there would be so many sites out there!! Im in a relationship at the moment but if I wasnt and I wanted to meet single people like the thread starter I would definelty try it.

    I have seen the pictures and it looks like a massive cock festival. Could any more males actually be there?

    LOL yea your right its a huge drunken c0ck festival, but its a boards drunken c0ck festival so that makes it ok. :D

    there are a fair ammount of women and the beer bashes these days i wasnt at the last one as i had to work but the last one i was at there were loads of women there (not to mention the fact your already in a pub so if you dont like the beer bash then go chat up other women in the bar)

    Ah well you see women can tell lads are shy very easily - a load of them don't want that unfortunately.

    I was curious to see people's views. Oh, and I never said I was single. :cool:

    I've tried internet dating, and have had success there. Anything/everything can work, depending on how you approach it. People are people no matter where you meet them.

    Sometimes it can be just difficult to find singles.

    How do you know, if you spot someone in a pub, if they're single or not ???? :confused:

    They have a look on their face which says whether or not they want the cock or not. :p

    You just have to walk up with a smile and yap to her

    If you get a less than friendly reception when u start talking to her - she's either not interested or has a guy.

    If she's nice she's either not intersted and jus being polite, has a guy and is just being a flirt or IS interested!!

    If she talks to you for more than 10 minutes without awkwardly trying to go back to her friends then your in by the looks of things!

    Thats what i think


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,367 ✭✭✭✭Sleepy


    Those of you that said they found internet dating a goer, what sites were you using? I tried rsvp and found myself far too young for the women on there (I'm 23). Anyone got a success story from another site?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,381 ✭✭✭✭Paulw


    I used rsvp and had some good success there. Mind, I'm a little older than you. :)

    I take your point Sarky but "just like horoscopes" what people want, people get!
    If single people were'nt using such services do you think they would exist?

    Leave Dub and scoot over to beautiful downtown Sligo and belly up to the bar in the Blue Lagoon pub and restaurant? **cough** Oh, there's no "lagoon" per se, but a river does flow by, so use your imagination... The grub is grand, but I doubt there's any birds on the menu.
