by Nocita Carter, Noc

Jackie was down in the dumps because she hadn't met anyone since her break-up with Matthew six months ago. She had dated Matthew for almost two years and they decided to go their own separate ways because they felt after two years they really weren't compatible. They also discovered that their marriage goals were different. Jackie wasn't ready to settle down and have kids and Matthew was ready to get married and start a family. So, they decided to go their own separate ways. Jackie was alone and with no one. She was depressed and didn't know what she was going to do. Her friend Monica, decided to help Jackie with her quest of trying to find out where she could meet someone to date. So, Monica started looking for information to help Jackie find a place to meet someone and low and behold, she ran across the tips and information provided in this article to assist her friend in meeting someone. Monica also found this information helpful to her as well. So, here we go! Try some of these tips and information which may assist you in meeting that someone special:

1) Consider your favorite hobbies or things you like to do when trying to find someone to meet for a date. You will probably find that this will lead you to a place that you can meet someone to date. For example, if you like going to concerts, you may want to book a ticket to a concert and this will provide you with a venue to meet someone. Or, if you like reading, go to your favorite bookstore to pick up a book and maybe you'll meet someone special! Get the idea? By using your hobby or what you like to do, this could lead you in the direction of meeting someone you may want to date.

2) Make a connection through a dating service to meet someone. There's lots of those to choose from these days. In fact, you can join dating services via the internet or off line. So you may want to consider this source when you're trying to meet someone to date.

3) Social events are a good way to meet someone. Such social events would be festivals, parades, sporting functions and other types of events. At these particular events there are multitude of people in attendance, so the possibilities of meeting someone is practically endless!

4) Various clubs are a good source for meeting people, such as; health fitness clubs, professional clubs, comedy clubs, night clubs, and any other types of clubs you can think of which would be of interest to you in meeting someone.

5) If you like fun in the sun, consider amusement parks, beaches, and maybe the zoo. If you like it inside, consider going to a video arcade where you can meet someone who's interested in video games like you.

6) Hey what about the mall or supermarket? Yeah, that's right! These are great places to meet people. Maybe you like to shop, or possibly don't really have a choice, then why not consider meeting that special someone you may want to date at the supermarket or mall. You never know if you'll meet your prince or princess on aisle nine where your favorite bread is located in the supermarket!

7) Movie theaters are also good places to meet someone you may want to date. As you already probably know, lots of people go to the movies on a daily basis so you may catch the love of your life there. Go ahead, try it!

8) Business seminars and conventions are also good places to meet someone as well. I know you're probably saying, hey I'm on business this isn't a social trip. Well, that's okay! There's nothing wrong with mixing business with pleasure. I'm sure you'll have some down time after your business is completed to mingle and chat with other business associates attending the seminar or convention. Perfect opportunity to meet that someone special!

9) Why not at work, if you're comfortable meeting someone at your workplace that you may consider dating. It may not necessarily be a person working for the same company you're working for, it could be someone who works at another company in the same building.

10) Consider your friends and relatives as a source for meeting someone you may want to date. You never know you friend or relative may know someone that you can make a love connection with!

So, as you can see there's lots of places you can meet someone you may want to date. You can probably think of more places to meet someone yourself in addition to the tips listed here. So go ahead, get started picking a place you can meet someone and you'll eventually meet the right person to date!

First of all you need to question why you are looking at any other guy than your boyfriend with dating on your mind. The fact that you're bored enough with your current relationship that you're considering what it would be like to date someone else suggests that you have some strong issues going on between you and your partner that are being ignored. Are they his issues or yours? Or do you feel that the relationship has gone just about as far as it possibly can? How is your boyfriend feeling about it? Do you think he is also starting to look at other women with a view to some kind of relationship? Or do you think he is completely unaware that there's a problem (or two) between you that needs to be sorted? If these things could be worked out, would you be happy to stay with him, or would you still want to move on to another man?

If you think he's completely unaware, then you need to talk to him. Tell him how you feel about things. Tell him that you don't want to be in the relationship as it is any more. If you think it can be worked out, then you need to come to some kind of understanding between you. If you aren't interested in working it out, then you need to make a clean break of it.

Now you've got your current situation under control, how are you going to approach dating your now ex's best buddy? Guys are different than girls, and whereas a girl's best friend would usually not want to upset her friend by dating her friend's ex, a guy may not see that as a problem. As far as he's concerned, his friend is no longer dating you, you are available and interested in him, and so why not! There are a few guys who would think about their friend's feelings, but not many! In the guys dating field it's every man for himself!

What you need to keep in mind is that it's very likely that your ex will have discussed you with his buddy, and buddy is likely to discuss you with your ex (if your ex is still speaking to him!). You also need to remember that buddy isn't particularly interested in what happened between you and your ex, as far as he's concerned, it's a done deal. So don't discuss your past relationship with him. Guys don't usually want to hear about the other guys you've dated anyway, and just because this ex is/was one of his best buddies, doesn't change that fact.

Although most guys won't turn your attention down just because you broke up with their friend, you have to be prepared that a few of them -- especially when it's a relationship that goes back to grade school -- will turn you away simply because they don't like what you did to their buddy. It won't matter to them that their buddy was in any way part of the cause of the break-up, they will only see that dating you would be a huge disloyalty to their friend. It won't happen often -- but sometimes, guys can be as close to their buds as girls can!
