What are you doing this Saturday night? If you want to meet a man, you have to leave the house. You must get out among the living. Prince Charming is not going to climb through your window to watch SNL with you. Grab a friend and head to your nearest coffee house. Most feature live music on weekends. Hang out. If you don't have a friend, go anyway. Order a cup of coffee in a to-go cup and then stick around. If there's a seat at an empty table, take it. As the place fills up, somebody will probably ask you if they can drag off the other chair. Smile and say, "Sure." If anyone asks what you're doing out alone, just say you popped in for a quick cup of coffee but the music was so captivating you decided to stay. Look approachable. Pull your shoulders back. Relax your jaw. Keep your eyes on the band. The great thing about getting out by yourself is that men are more likely to be comfortable talking to you. Face it; they're human, too, and the idea of walking up to a woman surrounded by a pack of friends is intimidating. If you find the idea of hanging out by yourself utterly appalling, take the pressure off by heading to your nearest bookstore caf. Nothing weird about going to a bookstore on your own, is there? Dress attractively, and youll look cute and smart. Besides, that book in your hand just may prompt a fetching guy to start a conversation. Sure, it is a bit scary to put yourself in new and uncomfortable situations, but getting out of the house is the ticket to meeting new men and getting dates. Meeting new men is the ticket to meeting (and getting married to) a man who will make you happy for the rest of your life. |
