Good places to meet a partner?

Hi!
I feel like I’m finally in a really good place to find a relationship. I feel the best I have felt in myself in a long time, and I feel like I have so much capacity to give a potential partner.
I just don’t know where to look for him…
I struggle with the idea of dating apps, being a bit of a romantic I love the idea of meeting someone in person or being set up by friends. But I’m starting to come to the conclusion that my view of that might be a bit too rose tinted glasses?
I wanted to ask people for ideas of places I can go to meet potential partners. Im not exactly the most extraverted person in the world, but I am ready to put myself out there.
Any suggestions?

Pop world is not where you find a partner for a relationship lol.
Go to clubs (as in, sports clubs, book clubs, whatever floats your boat). Ask your friends to meet up and see if they'll bring anyone along that's single and maybe you'll have luck. If you see a guy that you like then just give some small hints and he'll probably make a move on you and you'll be golden

Yeah I was about to say Popworld definitely doesn’t seem like the place 😂.
Think they may have been confusing me wanting a serious relationship with a kind of short term thing.
I think friends is probably a really good shout, I mean if they are mutual friends I guess we already have something in common! Thank you for your response!

It's okay! As someone in a similar situation to you i understand how it can be a little frustrating. I think social media has hindered our collective ability to tolerate people but be friendly and people are happy to chat from what I've experienced

Yes! I completely agree, I have so many conflicting views about social media, people just don’t talk as much as they used to - and I have tried to make dating apps work out but I always end up finding people who want something really short term, and that just Isn’t for me.

Sorry give me more context, are u looking for a guy or girl? Are u a guy or girl? What u looking for fr

Absolutely agree - i relied on asking people out when I was at college a couple years ago before I took a couple of gap years but nothing worked out, it's so difficult to meet people unless you have friends to rely on though

It really is, and my university course is so female heavy, so I have met like one or two guys over the past couple years and they have all been in relationships

Do you go to any societies or sports clubs maybe? Those are probably your best chance other than friends. Otherwise if you hang out at any cafes or are shopping then you'll be seeing lots of guys at least, that would probably be a good start i think

Yeah I go to a couple societies (one sport one not). Cafes are a really good idea too especially University cafes I guess?
