All of the following ways are far better than apps and are great alternatives to a bar in my experience (30s Male):

- Art / community festivals
- Wine tastings (and similar)
- Coffee shops and bookstores
- Gym / fitness classes / fitness excursions (like a group hike)
- Museums and galleries (especially if there is an evening event)
- anywhere in a city when solo traveling

The key imo is to be doing something that you also like doing, which helps you A. Be more at ease and B. find someone with at least some similar interests.

Need advice. Very Shy guy and girl, met a while back for a side hustle both like each other a LOT, relationship has progressed in other areas but not in the physical realm, primarily because neither officially asked the other out. Guy is a very rough around edges, asked for a date by saying ‘anytime you need breakfast or lunch, let me know’. I am an independent gal and didn’t like the way it came across. I really want to take this forward but am out of ideas on how to make a date happen.
