Church is the worst place to hook up. Church, after all, is nothing more than people facing forward listening to a sermon, with the same level of social interaction as a theater.
Then you're going to the wrong church or just not getting involved. Most churches have social hours after worship, Bible studies, & other activities.

I enjoyed the article and reading your replies. The best advice for me was to say, "I want to meet new people." So, it doesn't matter to me if the activities are elaborate (like a dinner party) or inexpensive (like a weekly movie, coffee, free music, open mike night). I wouldn't normally go to an open mike night, but a local coffee place has one on Friday nights. I'll take the advice in the article and call two of my girlfriends, saying "Bring someone else if you like, I want to meet new people." Maybe they bring someone, maybe they don't. But I'll bet I have a more open attitude when I go to the open mike night, and carry the attitude of "I want to meet new people" into the coffee shop with me. It's much better for me to do that than to have the attitude of "There's nobody good out there anymore." Cheers!
