Dating:How do i do it??

I know someone who's met someone (still together - 2 years?) at a wine tasting for single people... the idea being if you like wine and don't meet anyone at least you still had some good wines!

Go to the supermarket. All women go there, everyone needs to eat. If you 'bump' into anyone nice just go back the next week, most people go to the supermarket on the same day every week.

And eventually the supermarket manager will call the police to report a suspicious looking man who hangs around at 2pm every saturday.....

But in answer to the OP, I did give online dating a go a few years back. I had a few dates but nobody I really got on with. It's worht a try but some sites can be expensive.

I think you need to get them cycling and on a Fnrttc or one of our local ones! :biggrin:. Promise them cake and fit, wealthy and healthy blokes in lycra they can perv over! And of course, if they have a mechanical, us men dont mind getting a bit dirty for a good course... ;)

Well you wouldn't be around to see them even if they did turn up...:hello:
 
I know someone who met her chap on a dating site - he was the complete opposite of her previous boyfriends, she used to go out with wimps that she could bully until she met this bloke - black belt in karate, own successful business, part time rugby coach and two teenage kids by a previous marriage. Funny old business, life.

Go for it, but there is a 3:1 men:women ratio on most dating sites, so your odds are not good. Get into a few other singles clubs as well.

Oh, and go dancing. Ceroc is good - dead easy to learn, a nice, easy going scene, not a pervy pick-up one, and great for practising social skills that we all forget in relationships.

Good luck.

Cycling as a keyword isn't enough. They need to be able to understand the n+1 rule, that you can never have enough lycra, and be prepared to play 2nd fiddle to your pride and joy(s) ;)

Does such a lady exist?!?

... and use psychological trickery... place a banana and two oranges in your hand basket ... the 'ladies' will instantly be thinking of nookie... ;)
 
After breaking up with my girlfriend after 10 years in 2004, I was single for about 18 months before trying my luck on the internet.

At that time I was living in Stockholm, and the dating sites there were swamped with stunning-looking women, of all ages.

In the four years I was there, I had quite a few dates, and four girlfriends (at different times, of course).

I broke up with my last Swedish girlfriend in January this year, but I met a Norwegian woman, on the net, and we have been with her 6 months. I moved in with her yesterday! ;)

There is a site specifically aimed at sporty types, called Fitness Singles.
Google it and you´ll be surprised at the quality of the women there!

As a newly single man, i'm getting right back in the saddle (as they say) so have signed myself up to a well known and heavily advertised dating website.

At a stupid price for one month(i'm confident)

Just looking, there are in fact an incredibly amount of nice looking women on there.

Anybody else on a dating site or got stories they can share.

All you need are a handful of chat up lines.

How about 'Nice legs what time do they open':tongue::tongue:

Im sure our fellow ccers will have many more

I am astonished at how many hot single women who are colleagues, friends of my wife etc etc. And, they seem to lurch from one unsuitable partner to another. Some of them use dating websites, but they do not seem to come up with much more than desparate men.

Hmmmmmmmm

The vast majority of my female friends think it's shocking and hilarious in equal measure that I go out in lycra, turn up to after work drinks a bit sweaty and am practical enough to change an inner tube.

I'm afraid ladies like us are thin on the ground.... and I'm taken.

...another one bites the dust, never mind Karlos, keep looking

When I was a copper I dealt with a female victim on 4 occasions in 3 years for incidents of domestic violence. Each incident was with a DIFFERENT partner.

To this day I cannot figure out how they do it - the women for getting with a shoot - and the shoot for getting a woman in the first place?
