without giving a lot of information, i've decided to move on from hoping and wishing that something will happen between me and someone i've had feelings towards for a very long time, if it happens it happens, and if it doesn't then it doesn't and i don't think me sitting around and waiting for the outcome is a good idea.
So, I'm back on the market...and its quite a scary place to be! Went to a club night last week, loads of nice guys (not many girls that even looked my way), went and talked to a few and was flirting a bit (and they were flirting back), only to find they were taken...and that happened twice! I don't seem to do small talk well, and guys seem to find me more that a little off putting...i don't know why men no long come up to me, it takes so much effort for me to come to you, and i though you liked the chase?
Anyway, i've decided that i am definatly not dating anyone from my local, cos they really seem to all be either messed up, or wanting one thing and one thing only. And although that would be fun, i am looking for a little bit more. I don't want a full on heavy relationship, but it would be nice to have someone to spend some time with, and go out with a bit and if it progresses then great if it doesn't then fine...
But where do people meet people they have gone on to date?
it sees like my local and the tube (not the greatest of places by far) are the only places i tend to be, where people i know have met people..
any ideas?

Down that mysterious hole in the ground at the park that everyone avoids

You can meet people anywhere. what are your interests? Maybe find a group that shares your interests and go on from there.
Try pulling in rush hour on the tube. Now that takes some artful todgering.
I usually rely on friends of friends to get me my bacon. I mean, women. I mean...life partners.
As for places to go, see my comments on the other topic, but I really think you need to make yourself completely unattached first to give other guys a fair chance.
