> 1) Meet people doing hobbies/outside of work activities (You take art classes at the local community college, meet a nice girl, etc) Good approach. In general, finding people like the original question suggests is a lot of work. > 2) Meet people through dating sites (match.com, tinder, etc) A great deal of work and patience - with no guarantees - but for some this could be preferable. Still, I'd hesitate recommending this. > 3) Meet people through friends (Your friend has game night at their house, invites a single girl, you two hit it off) Might bring good results, but you have to have good friends - both a lot of them, and those should have those required connections in society. Develop this even if it won't bring you to the main goal, the secondary goals are still worthy.
