The Search for a Significant Other Continues...

Dear Soothsayer,
Is there EVER a Significant Other for me?
Thanks,
SO-less

Dear SO-less,
Yes, definitely! You haven’t given me much information, but I can offer some general advice for meeting people.

1. Don’t look. Concentrate on what you do have in your life, go out with friends, and be happy and confident, that’s what attracts others to you. When someone projects that they are desperate for a relationship, it sends red flags to both men and women.

2. Expand your circle. If you haven’t met anyone in whom you’re interested in your current circle of friends or activities, expand. Join a group such as a book club or another social club of your interest. Take a class such as photography, writing, golf, dance, etc. This way you will meet new people who have at least one similar interest as you.

3. Volunteer. If you are interested in an organization or a cause, volunteer your time. They are always looking for volunteers and it’s a great way to meet people while supporting something you care about.

4. Brave the web. Many people are still wary about meeting people online. Yet others have found it to be a great dating tool. If it’s something in which you may be interested, give it a try, but as in the “real” world, take it slow and be cautious.

Good luck and please let me know how the journey goes.
