1. Online
There are literally hundreds and hundreds of dating sites out there, a few for every specific age group or religious affiliation or hobby you can think of. Why not try a few? I can highly recommend OKCupid and Fellody, but if you don’t like those, you can try a few of the others… why not?
Absolutely! You can join interest-based clubs, fitness classes, art workshops, or volunteer for causes you care about. These environments can be great for meeting someone who shares your values and interests.

2. Blind Dates
I don’t have a lot of luck with blind dates, but I know some people who have. Ask your friends (the ones whose opinions you actually trust) to set you up with their single male friends, and see what happens! If you find a boyfriend this way, your friend gets match-making bragging rights and you, of course, end up with a wonderful man in your life.

3. Out and about
The library, the gym, the bank, even the grocery store - all of the places we go every day are good places to find a boyfriend. Keep your eyes open and have a good opening line ready to use, and make sure you have a scrap of paper and a pen for taking down names and numbers of potential boyfriends!

School is an excellent place to meet men, no matter what your age. Register for an adult enrichment class, or just a class that interests you at a local community college. At least a third of the class is bound to be male, unless you’re taking a knitting or scrapbooking class, obviously.

Ask
If you're looking to engage your partner in intriguing conversations, why not try some hypothetical questions for couples? These fun queries will not only keep the conversation lively but also stimulate deep thoughts and potentially reveal insights about each other's personality and thought processes.
5. Join a Group
Whether you’re into Dungeons and Dragons or obscure Russian literature, there’s sure to be a group that promotes the hobby in your area. Join the group! It’s a great way to meet men you’re sure share at least one thing in common with you! And better still, since they share your “unique” hobby or interest, they won’t judge you for it.
***
Exploring common hobbies can develop into deeper connections, often when you least expect it. Get active in discussions, attend group gatherings, and volunteer for events. This immersion will not just enrich your personal life and potentially improve your skill but also increase the chances of naturally fostering a romance with someone who understands the allure of your interests. Remember, the best relationships often begin from a shared passion!

6. Speed Dating
The idea is appallingly simple: you spend two minutes chatting with potential dates to see if there’s a connection or spark. If not, the buzzer sounds and you’re on to the next fella. It takes the pressure of a coffee date or worse, entire dinner, before you can tell if a guy is boyfriend material or not. And it’s fun!
***
Speed dating events are now a staple in the modern dating scene. They're often hosted in lively venues across the city, where you can meet a smorgasbord of single men, all in one evening. Think of it as a sampler platter where you get to taste a little bit of everything before deciding on your favorite. It's a time-efficient way to put yourself out there, brushing up your small-talk skills with each new encounter. Plus, it's downright thrilling to work the room, never knowing if the next face-to-face will be with Mr. Right!

8. If All else Fails…
If all else fails, and you just can’t seem to find a boyfriend, then maybe you’re just not ready for one. I know that in the past, when I’ve been particularly nit-picky about the men I’ve been dating, the problem was actually mine, not theirs. I just didn’t want a boyfriend! And that may be the case for you too. If so, embrace the single life and enjoying casual dating for a while!
Who knew there were so many ways to find a boyfriend? And they’re all so much fun… in fact, you might even be doing some of them already, and you didn’t even know it! Which of these do you think you’ll try first? Or, if you already have a brilliant boyfriend, how did you find him? Do tell!
