[QUOTE="Arravis, post: 2893824, member: 327"] Before I got married I would go to the kind of places the women I found attractive (skinny nerd women) were likely to be. College libraries: I wasn't even a student, but I was looking up some books. Bookstores, though they can be difficult due to the quiet atmosphere. Quirky stores are a good locale too, they tend to be relaxed and informal. I took my dog to training classes and other doggie-related events to meet women, even though my dog was already trained. Dogs help in general, it's a good sign if you can take care of another living creature. I got a few nice dates out of that. The thing I had the most luck with at finding geek-style girls was joining the SCA (Society for Creative Anachronism). Personally, I had no interest in it, I find it a bit silly, but man, I got a lot of nice dates out of it. A few of the people there can be a bit freakish, but most are fairly cool. In the end I met my wife where I wasn't looking for dates... on Everquest. We had known each other for two years before we met in person, and we moved in together four months after that. We've been living together five years now, married two :). Just go to the kind of places that the women you like are going to be at, and be assertive while there. Finding them isn't hard, being assertive and charming is. [/QUOTE]
