"Positive thinking really does equal positive results."


I am a firm believer in this. The basic "laws of attraction" If you think negatively, you get negative results. You have to believe in yourself before someone else can. Have a positive outlook... Go out and have fun... when the time is right, someone wonderful will come along. Don't stress over it too much, which i know is so hard sometimes.


I think sometimes the friend thing is a great idea! You never know how many single people your other friends know. Give them a heads up, that you are available and READY for a date! They just might know someone for you!


I think another great place to meet someone could be church. If you are christian, this would probably be very ideal, at least u know that you might share some of the same values and beliefs.

I think the other thing that is important here is, once you see the person you're interested in, don't hesitate in making a move. When we're in a dry spell, a lot of times we're a little self-conscious about our looks, or whatever. You can visit every one of the above locations but if you're not putting yourself out there, you're not going to find a relationship.

I agree with you both...


However, I have to wonder why I spent all of this money on eH when - after reading this article - I realized that the obvious answer was to date myself. lmao

As the picture you accompanied this article with suggests, get out there and recreat solo! That's what guys do!. Cycling, cross-country skiing or even a evening lecture. As a single woman you are approachable, with a gaggle of girlfriends, you are not!


Unless you have a pet already do not get one just to meet someone. They are a long-term committment, costs lots, (quality food, vet and kennel bills) and are a big responsiblity.. and lots of people are allergic.


I further suggest sign up for a ballroom dance class, persevere through the 'single' thing .. most classses can handle one or two woman and then voila the world of ballroom.Latin dance clubs open up. A total stranger can walk over and ask you to dance and if you know the dance style you are away... Great way to spend three or four minutes with someone.. low risk contat with multiple parters.

Well, I just think the older guys don't know what they are missing. We older girls are experienced, and great companions. Even some of the younger guus--say five to ten years younger--could have a fantastic life if they would just look our way! Anyway, there are just so many more of us. It's nice to dream.

Well, you guy! You just need to look at the girls that are a little older than you are. Like, I mean, well, we are more experienced. We are past some of those younger girl problems. Most of us can't have kids. Any, anyway, we still tend to live longer. There are just lots of reasons we make great dates. Our tastes are simpler than those of younger women, so we aren't as expensive, and some of us have great incomes. Giveus a look.

Huh? you call those tips for breaking a dry spell? Join a church group, hang around the produce section in a grocery store, go clubbing? Geeeee, I never thought of that. When was this article written? 1940? The ideas in this article are dreadful and trite. Thanks for nothing...

I'm actually dating a woman 6 years older than me. I'm not sure of whether she really appreciates me or not... I may just be a distraction from her job... although she did agree to get together with each other's friends... maybe do a group thing, but there was a whoa! in her response...


Women...
Whoa!
