Bars are great for short term things, but I always found that people postured so much that it was impossible to really talk with someone. Internet dating can be okay from what I hear if you get the right spot. The guy to girl ratio is pretty bad and not in your favor though. If you don't mind the internet thing, E-harmony is supposed to be pretty good. I know some campuses also have these internet chat rings just for the university that might be a good place to meet.

I meet women all the time now when I'm working. If I weren't happily married, I would gladly date some of them. It is never a single place either. I can happily have a conversation with someone I just met in an elevator, on the street if we happen to smile at each other, in lines, etc. The one place I never meet anyone I want to talk to is if I go to a bar with friends just to drink. It is the same old story for me. Of course, a good part of the reason I now have confidence to talk to people is because I am happily married and there is no pressure. Back when I was dating, it was so difficult for me to break through my shyness.
