I've found the following much more enjoyable and successful than the gym (Early 30s straight M in ATL):

- Art / Community festivals
- Museums
- Cafes
- Airplanes / airport lounges (no joke)
- Theater
- Cooking classes/ Wine tasting
- Dance classes

Haven't found "the one" yet, but lots of amazing people who share interests

EASY! Shop at an "Organic Market!" I'm quite serious...that was how my colleague met her husband...Two minds mused 'organic' is the only path to stay healthy! Now, isn't that how to meet potential partners "organically?" 👍

Question that could belong here or in the Relationships bowl:

How do women prefer to be turned down if the guy they’re pursuing is not interested. I know men have the capacity to deal with rejection poorly, and I’m not suggesting otherwise. But in my anecdotal experience , women take the gentle “no thanks, not interested” poorly.

How do you feel when your guy repeatedly calls other women hot in front of you and says he’s allowed to appreciate beautiful things? I understand we will never stop finding others attractive but something about this feels disrespectful and I can’t place my finger on what that is.
