    Hi all,

    Got a bit of a problem!!

    Where do you think are the best places to meet women except for the usual clubs and pubs?

    Gettin tired of that scene and would actually like to chat with like minded people.

    as winston churchill once said, and i paraphrase here:


    'We shall go on to the end, you will find them in France, you will find them on the seas and oceans, you will find them with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, you will find them in our island, whatever the cost may be, you will find them on beaches, you will find them on landing grounds, you will find them in the fields and in the streets, you will find them in the hills; They are everywhere."

    yes, women are just everywhere.

    Maternity wards, Ladies auxilliaries, Badminton clubs, bridge clubs, hair salons, supermarkets, you name it man...

    Seriously - will be better able to help once we know your age.

    What hobbies or interests do you have?
    It's much easier to talk to new people about something you're interested in & it cuts down on those awkward silences.

    You could always try the sunday afternoon pub crowd!
    There's drink involved, but not as much as on a friday or saturday night & it usually much much quieter (provided there's no football on).

    Friends/relatives of people you know?
    You could have a party & invite all sorts around!

    Also, any girl you know will have friends... Single friends! & most girls love the thrill & satisfaction of setting people up!
    Ask around!

    A friend of mine's always gettin blokes just walking up to her on the street & striking up conversations.
    She admires their courage & confidence & so they're already up a notch on the 'potential' scale.
    (she's gorgeous & if she wasn't so deranged & be forced to hate her!)

    Try a dating agency.

    Here's one for example.

    Is this 'meet' in the colloquial Cork(?) sense?

    Bus/trains/airplanes can be good to start a conversation if you are sitting beside a girl....you could spend your spare time going back on forth on the bus and if you get lucky :)

    Not from my experience I'm afraid. Surprising mis-conception, but there appear to be more men than women playing the game.

    I'm asking the same question here, lol. I haven't any female friends (now) so can't go into their circles.

    It seems to me that I don't get out often enough, but I live in the middle of nowhere so that certainly doesn't help. In most cases I can't even get to places to meet people, and that includes pubs and clubs. I just wish I could pack my bags and leave for a better area, but its not that easy.

    women have the same problem meeting available guys, I bet.

    someone mentioned finding out what your own hobbies and pastimes that ye might like first. look to yourself first. The thing is that meeting women is partially out of your hands. women will want to meet you, rather than you meeting meeting women. so the best thing is to do your own thing and let women come to you. hence the other clubs and things. do stuff that interests you and women who are interested in you will come to you. not the other way around.

    What about a mutual friend setup. Do your friends have any single girlfriends who they might set you up with?
    Girls at work? Go to work socials and nights out, leaving do's etc. Already have the foundation of knowing that person (or at least someone who knows someone) and with the booze? role with it. Though watch out for work romances, can be tricky at best.

    If your going to ask such questions you're obviously stuck in a bit of a social rut,so i'd suggest that you either go travelling abroad for a year or move to a different county within Ireland to change scene.If you live in Dublin already i'd advise going abroad, coz there are countless places to meet women here already.

    Change is good for you!
