I’ve been waiting to write this for a long time…Share

by Walt Charles

One of my married friends mentioned the other day that women should not look for men, but men should look for women. I thought about it for three seconds. Could this be one of the reasons women are single?

Besides the fact that I totally disagree with the antiquated notion that women need to be ‘found’ by men, I think there is a deeper issue here - there are two types of women. There are women that would rather be found and those that do not mind being the seeker.

Either way, I have a solution for both types of women. I call this, “Walt’s top 4 ways to find (or be found by) a man”

- Online.
Here’s what I love about online dating. Most of the hard stuff is already done for you. Since you have already completed some type of personality assessment, you should be left with determining if you’re physically attracted to the person. It costs money, but I think that it’s worth the cost and the time.
- Buy season tickets to a sporting event.
Imagine how many guys you can meet if you and a girlfriend buy season tickets to the NY Knicks, or even a minor league sports team like Trenton Thunder (baseball) or a college team. Here are some factors you may not know: 51% of males with a post-secondary education attend professional sport events. Of all age groups, 30-40 year-olds have the highest rate of spectatorship.
- Church.
But not the church you attend regularly. I would suggest visiting a church with a friend that knows a lot of people at that church. That way, should anyone be interest, they’ll just ask your friend. The trick is to be seen with that person and to visit the church at least twice.
- Work.
Don’t be fooled. Here is a dirty little secret. 58% of employees say they have been involved in an office romance. It’s so easy to determine if someone has potential when you see him every day. Look around. Mr. Right is probably in the cubicle/office next to you. If you don’t work directly with him, I’m sure there are many people that can dish the dirt!

If you don’t plan on going out alone, here’s one other piece of advice. Limit your group activities to one girlfriend. Large packs of really attractive women tend to be intimidating.
