Where To meet "the one"

Lately I’ve been getting asked what dating apps I use or where I go and what I do to meet the guy that could potentially be “The One”.

First off, if I’m being completely honest, right now my focus hasn’t been dating. Am I interested and attracted to men? Why Yes I Am!! But, am I actively putting myself out there? No, not at all!! For personal reasons, I put the brakes on my dating life but if the right situation comes along, I'm not opposed.

BUT I was having a GREAT time for awhile dating and meeting new people and here are some of the things I was doing that may or may not work for you. Everyone has to do what’s right for them. Unfortunately, there’s no proven method for find your Prince Charming.

Speed Dating - I LOVED doing speed dating. Maybe it was the sorority girl coming out in me but moving onto a new person every 5 minutes or so was perfect for me. To me this is much better then a dating app because I was able to see the ACTUAL person and get a feel of their conversation skills and if we clicked. Dating apps can have that prolonged back and forth messaging time and speed dating helped me filter in about 5 minutes. For busy people this can be a great alternative to dating apps and what’s even better is you don’t have  to worry about a thing. Just  have a fun night out, meet some new people and within the next day or so you see who you match with. So if you’re looking for something a little different BUT fun to try, give this a go! I guarantee you’ll at least be entertained throughout the evening.

Dating Apps - I have done dating apps too, I feel if you’re a millennial it’s just the new norm of how you meet people especially in big city environments. I wouldn’t say I have a favorite one but these are the ones I’ve used and have had success with or know some GFs who have had success on them.

1. Bumble - The app that empowers women to make the first move. Just make sure after you do and they’ve responded opening up the message platform between you two that you aren’t the one constantly doing the heavy lifting. Make sure they show initiative and interest too! 
2. The League - This app is one of those exclusive ones where not all are invited to join. I kind of like that there’s a screening process to this app, and that they penalize people for their bad behavior (such as ghosting). Also, you have a limited amount of prospects at a set time daily so that you aren’t just constantly swiping. AND they offer membership options on top of their screening process which opens you up to even more potential serious options.
3. Tinder - I know, I laugh too! But I have several GFs who have had decent relationships come from this “hook up” app. I guess everything is in how you use it ladies, what you put out you’ll get back!

Going Out - What an interesting concept, meeting someone not from a dating app! LOL. But really, GO OUT! Go out with your girls and just have a good time. Don’t got out with the intentions of meeting a guy, go out with the intention of having fun! What I mean by that is by genuinely interacting and engaging with who you came with (and not on your social media constantly), people see that! TRUST, guys will approach you if they see you having a good time, it’s that natural glow they’re interested in. No one including yourself have time for games!

These are just some of the things I’ve done, and I encourage you to give it a go! For more dating tips and suggestions make sure you sign up for my newsletter where I’ll bring in dating experts to give tips  to take your dating life  to the next level.
