I know that one day I will die and I can clearly say: "That one wanted me and I gave it to her" I will not be thinking, damn I missed that one and that one and that one and that one and that one...... :D

That chick from the online dating? I just made out with her a few times. I'd love to have bedded her but there wasn't a spark in the relationship so nothing happened in the end.

Here's another one. When you're at a gathering, be it a friendly get-together or an event or whatever, take your digital camera along. Take loads of photos of the people there. You'll find many will get your details or give you theirs, so you can email the photos to them (or so they can find it on whatever photo-sharing site or social network you use to display them). That's happened to me a few times. And if you struck it off at the gathering, you're bound to continue doing so over email/whatever.

That is a really good idea... I like that one!

Snake I have no problem with joining a crowd and talking to them, problem is its after many a tequila :/ I'd rather just meet people whilst being sober, and actually recognizing their flaws and faults instead of thinking "yay, they're having a shooter too!"

There is nothing wrong with that line... it works in most countries and other places of ill repute :p :D

My recommendations is to meet people and be more social is to get a hobbies something you enjoy doing.

I would recommend maybe start going to the gym and start meeting people at the gym ( not saying you fat or anything just trying to help)

Try speed dating/fast date socials..

Join myadsl Social meets, try and seriously get an interest.

I for one sit behind my computer nearly 18 hours a day or not longer.. I have no social life just my computer is my social life. People say I need to get out more, but who are the good people to mix with.

I have had a bad experience with friends being on drugs, trying to make me drunk etc.. I just do not even bother these days

i think most ppl have this problem to a degree, i have been friends with the same group since start of high school, and we now tend to be "clicky" and find it difficult to interact with newer ppl....the only way is if someone in the group dates a strong enough partner who also has friends.

TBH ur not doign bad here, and going to a social might actually be a laugh (even if it is a bit awkward...), u would def meet some interesting characters etc....

maybe interact here a bit, see if you think some of the ppl are decent etc, then pm them and see if they wanna go grab a drink/go out etc...

Cokefest is coming up, great event, am sure plenty members here are going!

Nice read (caught up the last 10 pages :p),

I met a few new people by hanging out with a group of friends I know, friends of friends :)

Safe to assume you're male? I don't feel right going out for example to a bar on my own, and just adding myself to a conversation. For starters, I wouldn't possibly know what to say to these strangers. On the other hand, it's probably really awesome to have courage like that and actually get them laughing ... TEACH ME! :(

I have not read through this entire thread and I'm not gonna now as it grows faster than I read, lol...but if you find yourself in the Cape Town areas and looking to go out but don't wanna go alone, you're welcome to join up with me and my friends...and who knows...you may just meet someone or at least make some great new friends.
