15 Ways To Meet A Guy Other Than Downloading The Infamous Tinder

In This Article:

OK, maybe I'm being dramatic.

I'm sure Tinder doesn't actually ruin lives; I have a friend in a happy relationship with a guy that she met on Tinder (Wow... that's what I said). BUT, I've definitely heard some horror stories from this app. I mean, come on ladies, we are queens and we deserve to be treated that way.

If Tinder is for you, GREAT, but if not, I promise, there are many other, more efficient ways to meet a guy... like "accidentally" bumping into him on your way to class.

FULL WARNING: This is a girl who has never been in a relationship lasting longer than 2 months giving you advice on how to meet a guy... take it at your own risk.

Your local coffee shop.

Okay, I'm old school. So, I've always said it I would meet my future husband in a coffee shop. Granted... that never worked out the best in high-school.

@my friends, y'all know what I'm talking about.

The checkout line at the grocery store.

I mean, who knows. Maybe you'll run into a Justin?

On your college campus.

Okay, but in all honesty, this is a lot more rare than the movies make it out to be. BUT, maybe you'll run into a guy who hates morning classes just as much as you do.

In class.

Maybe your Aaron Samuels is sitting right in front of you, right now.

Literally any other Social Media.

What happened to the good ol', "let me slide in your DMs?" That is a thing, right? I genuinely don't know.

Your favorite bands concert.

At least you'll know y'all have the same taste in music. I mean, what's more important than that?

At a red light.

Fun Fact: I've made a friend at a red light before.

At the bar.

My man Ed Sheeran knows what I'm talking about.

Walking your dog.

Dogs are ALWAYS a good convo starter.

Your next door neighbors attractive nephew.

Realistic? No. Possible? Yes.

At your favorite department store.

Grab ya girl friends and go shop for a boyfriend.

At your job.

If you're REALLY lucky, maybe you'll even meet you're very own Jim. I'm still looking for a Jim.

At the New Years party you didn't actually want to go to.

I promise ladies, we can have a High School Musical moment, too! Or maybe you're random midnight kiss will lead to a future relationship?

Are midnight kisses even still a thing? I wouldn't know.

A friend of a friend of a friend of your brothers.

It's possible, right? Unfortunately, I doubt they will be a Zac Efron.

A friend of a friend of a friend of your sisters.

Come on ladies, have some hope! It has to be better than Tinder!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
