I'm trying to get into the dating world and find myself a nice girlfriend. Problem is, I'm not sure how to start. Keep in mind that I am newly employed and recently graduated school so I cant rely on that anymore...too bad I didnt capitalize on that opportunity.
-First of all, I dont have a lot of friends so its not like a friend can just easily introduce me to someone they know. So that option's out the window.
-I'm planning to sign up for a couple of dating sites soon but I dont plan to solely rely on that.
-I take public transportation to work every day and let me tell you, I come across a bunch of very pretty girls around my age on the commute. Unfortunately, my self confidence is super low and I have not yet had the balls to spark a conversation with anyone. Even if I do (which I am trying to work on), I feel this would come off as very creepy/awkward. I rarely see guys just randomly picking up girls that they come across on the train. Thats the type of stuff I see on TV, not in real life.
-I guess I can ask co-workers to set me up with someone but I just started a new job so I'm not yet close with people to start asking stuff like that. Plus, I work in a very professional, corporate environment so I feel like that talking about that stuff would be very inappropriate for the setting.
-I feel that a lot of guys meet girls in bars and some girls may go to bars to meet guys. Again, I dont have a lot of friends so there's nobody for me to go to the bars with. I guess I could go alone and see what happens, but I always felt that going to the bar alone would make me look very creepy/desperate and girls will be immediately turned off.
So thats the predicament. Not sure whats the best way. I feel like I wasted my college years which I feel is when its easiest to do this kind of stuff. How did everyone here meet their GF/BF/significant other? Is it by one of the ways I mentioned?
Is it possible to even meet a girl when you dont have any friends?
