So I've been out of a long relationship for about 7 months now and started dating again about months ago. I have gone out with about 7-8 different women. None of which I am still seeing for different reasons. I met all these women threw friends that hooked us up, and at work, and even a few I met at a club. But I have exhausted all my resources now it seems. I don't want to settle for someone that isn't right for me. But I need a new way to meet women. I'm not the kind of guy to approach a totally stranger, it just seems odd and I don't want women to think I do that all the time. So I need a new place to go to meet women. A place I can go and maybe slowly start talking to them and getting to know them, then ask them out. Any help here would be great.
