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!

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.

The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
