The Best Places To Meet A New Man

Although it’s well documented the most likely place for modern couples to meet is on line, it is still possible – very possible! – to make a romantic connection in some decidedly unexpected locales.

It’s practically a cliché that couples meet and begin to fall in love with each other at weddings, where love is in the air. But couples have been known to first lay eyes on each other at far less likely venues, including christenings, bar and bat mitzvahs, even wakes and funerals. Why is that? It’s because these type of events usually are large or substantial gatherings that bring together family, extended family, and a whole host of family friends. Plus these events are high octane emotional fairgrounds, packed with both testosterone and estrogen.

Less recognized as ideal meeting places are other venues that attract groups of sometimes seemingly disparate people who have something unique in common. The shared connection could be an interest in going to meetings about hiking, becoming a better vegan, or saving the environment, or electing a candidate. You’d be surprised how many couples first connect at a meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous. And why not? You’re both there for support, and conversation and confidences are shared.
