Where can you meet an interesting guy/gal and potential date?

Just think of simple places, so NOT the usual like:
- Restaurant
- bar
- coffee shop
- party
- Gym

We're looking for the NOT so usual yet realistic places where you could have an encounter, a short nice chat and maybe exchange phone nrs. and who knows!

Work from A - Z, just skip the ones you really don't know.

B - Bus
C - Clothes shop
E - Elevator
G - Garage
L - Library
M - Museum
P - parking lot / park
S - Supermarket

Mmmmpph that is bloody difficult!

A. Anywhere beyond your front door.
B. Beyond your own house.
C. Corralled in the reality you shut yourself away from.
D. Deep inna heat o' Texas. Or any other state or city in da world.
E. Everywhere there are other people.
F. Flying in a plane over all the other people.
G. Go outside.
H. Have a life and hobbies.
I. I don't know how much more clearer it can be.
J. Just don't believe that there is a magic place where the "good" ones are all kept.
K. 'Kay?
L. Look back there, it's Keanu Reeves!
M. M'outta here.
N. No...that was the fire exit.
O. Oh god, where did I park?
P. People are people so why should it be you and I get along so awfully, hmmm, mmmmm, la la.
Q. Queue the singing to myself while I try and remember where I parked.
R. Really?! I left my damn keys at my desk.
S. So...I should write down the parking space so I don't get lost again.
T. There's a woman walking to her car! She's hot! I'm going to go chase her down until she can't run away from me anymore and ask her out.
U. Ummm...what's up? You park here often?
V. Very convenient you have a boyfriend already but I don't believe you. Give me your phone number and your panties.
W. Wait! You don't need pepper spray. I was kidding about the phone number. Well, you can have mine.
X. Xysts! We'll have coffee on the xyst and I'll listen to all your complaints about your boyfriend and give you a foot massage and we can cuddle. I swear I don't want sex. I just miss the closeness. I promise.
Y. You're a clingy psycho chick that keeps texting me at work.
Z. Zzzzzzz, stop it I don't want to cuddle and talk about my feelings, just get out and stop calling.
1. I just want ONE place I can meet the right person!

Women's phone numbers?

Uh, no. I don't have any of those and don't really know where to get them either. Honestly.

Women's phone numbers?

Uh, no. I don't have any of those and don't really know where to get them either. Honestly.

That's why I thought it could be interesting to hear from others where they interact with the other gender. It's so easy to think in the usual circles, like a bar, restaurant etc. But I'm thinking maybe it's easier to strike up a conversation elsewhere. Maybe even in a more natural way.

For instance, a friend of mine had to get rid of her car, so now she uses public transport. And she's enjoying the heck out of it because suddenly she gets to talk to a whole lot of people. She just starts conversations.
And I never thought about that advantage of public transport, to be honest, I hate public transport as it scarce in the area I live in, and I'm glad I have a car.
But ... I don't get to meet people when I travel somewhere. Maybe at the petrol station on the way, but usually when I travel I am on a schedule to get somewhere on time, so I have no time to maybe chat with a guy.

So ... the bus or train could be a good place.

Even a queue could be great. People are usually bored when queuing, no one likes waiting. A nice lighthearted conversation could end up in cappuccinos with someone great.

I sometimes simply start talking to people in shops or whenever there's an opportunity. Sometimes it gets me weird looks at first. Apparently we are so brainwashed to neglect our fellow human beings that a simply friendly conversation is considered strange. But usually you get good reactions once they see you're not some weirdo like a drug dealer or something, haha. People just don't expect it, which is why it can be great fun!

So ....

A - anywhere with ppl who share a similar interest: garden shop --> plants/gardening
B - Bus
P - Park
T - train
Q - Queue (as long as you don't start whinging about the waiting)
W - Waiting room (as long as you don't start whinging about the waiting)

to find out what your guy is like. ask him to get up at 6 am to meet you at auto shop to drop your car off. and take you to work. i just did that for the lady i meet last week. and will be doing that tomorrow to. but she is a very special lady.

That's real sweet, but I was asking about WHERE to possibly meet someone, not what to do with 'em once you got them :tongue:
So tell me where you met this special lady?

I think most people are happy to chat if they are approached.
sometimes I just can't stop myself from commenting on something while in a lineup, say at the bank... not that i'm trying to 'pickup' anyone.. just enjoying a conversation..
I have sat at the bar at a sports bar, watching my team play.. and struck up conversations with others I think I'm just being friendly.
Of course for the less brave, there is always places to volunteer and interact with others..
Take up fishing - guys like fishing.
