Find someone you'd like to date (sometimes you can even find them on Fab!).

Talk to them.

Ask them on a date.

Plan said date (I tend to plan dates and it works well).

Go on the date and hopefully they turn up and at the very least you have a laugh.

First dates don't have to be big things OP, I hope you're able to enjoy one soon.

I've still never been on a proper date. Ever. I think it might be nice. Meli makes it sound so easy. I'm not sure it is. Sorry no answers OP.

Hope you find someone x

Hinge or Bumble are better for dates over hookups.

I met M on Hinge and look where we ended up

I hope you get a date soon OP.

I love dating. I love dates. The apps are good for that. And also I enjoy doing it with people I’m seeing. I still date my fiancé. And I like to do date things with my partner.

I think my last date was a few weeks ago.

Ach Scarlet, really? I think for me generally it is quite easy but not all dates have a/lead to a romantic connection. It's more two people seeing if there's that spark.

I probably sounded a bit glib, apologies OP. There are apps, Fab, the old fashioned way of talking to someone face to face. I hope you find that date soon Op, x

I am with you on this one Scarlett, I don’t think I have been properly asked to go on a date ever, with romantic prospects in mind or not. But I have never been romanced either, so…

Pretty much this.

Anything from a coffee, an evening drink, a movie, bowling, a trip to a car boot sale, a charity shop rummage or just an afternoon on a sofa talking crap and playing scrabble.

I've done all of the above in the last few months and all were great fun.

Sometimes there was sex too.

I volunteer to take men or women on dates. For the experience. Is romance in the cards? Unlikely but sometimes you go on dates just to get out there not because you want to marry or fuck the person.

I’m hoping this will get me through the eye of the needle. 🙏🏾🤲🏾🧎🏾‍➡️

Ok, I'm definately no expert... but my advice, from a straight male view anyway (as many women get drawn to other things that aren't just looks) is get comfortable just talking to strangers. Male, female, old, young, doesnt matter, but it get you out your comfort zone and before you know it, striking up conversation with a stranger becomes more natural and less akward.

Its easier then to go from a chat to date. This doesn't really work on here though, and women dont reply! Haha

Tip on how to do this is via a shared observation. For example, in the coffee shop the other day, a woman turned to me and said "is that guy talking very load or what?". Its a shared observation so felt more natural and not wierd, we chatted for 20 mins just from that one question.

Hope this helps, good luck!

Finding just someone to do those things with us proving somewhat impossible. I listen to how easy everyone tells me it is then think OK it's clearly me then. Makes me feel so much better knowing that!😂

Perhaps we need to set-up a thread for casual dates, where we'd just get together for a date, rather than being committed to LTR dates. People wouldn't need to feel insecure about having to be the perfect potential dream partner for a forever relationship

I’m maybe not the best person to give advice on dating, but just take it from me, ask at least one question and make sure there’s plenty of cake 😉
