    hey i broke up with my ex of 6.5 years almost 5 years ago , and since found out she's engaged and pregnant ( im sincerely happy for her ) i however just feel down in the dumps as im stuck in a rut , and dont have many friends outside the pub scene

    im a guy of 28 and have morals and respect for people , but i just dont seem to meet decent women out and about , all into the brad pitt or footballer type guys , so basically shallow and just into looks

    now im a decent looking lad , tall , dark haired , blue eyes etc funny so i just dont know why i cant seem to meet somebody into more than fun ??

    im down at the min as loads of people i know are settling down or have kids or married and i have nothing

    is there any social group in north dub ??? diff people to go the pubs with , broaden my horizons

    helppppppppppppppp

    hey Ivor,
    sorry you feel so bad! trust me you are not alone I get like that a lot too. in fact just had a wedding yesterday and all my college friends seems to be hooked up.
    why don't you try meeting people through other means. i'm based in north dublin too and joined a drama group recently although they have finished for the summer groups like that are good to join as a - they tend to have a ot of females and b it's not alienating people who ar enot into sports where u will tend to meet people of teh same gender anyway,
    you could also join an online dating site, it is a great way of meeting people and you might just find some new friends although a relationship would be a great plus!

    Ivor, you are not alone! I'm in the same boat sometimes, it's easy to start feeling left behind or out of the loop! A lot of people my age are off doing all sorts, abroad or in Ireland, getting married or engaged or having kids. I'm nowhere near that stage, infact my relationship of 4 years came to an end recently so I'm back to being single, can't meet a decent fella outside the pub scene etc. But I'm trying to think of myself and what good can come out of it (it takes a LOT of work! :rolleyes:) Like Terri26 said maybe you could join a group or club that interests you? I know a fella who joined an online dating site at the start of the year and he is on to his 2nd girlfriend already.
