I will second Tinder, Bumble, Facebook, Instagram, etc. Honestly, it was super easy.

Also, all of the wives/girlfriends of my buddies were constantly setting me up. The women, if they like you, are the best wingman (wingwoman?) in the world. Get them on your side.

Tinder. Bumble. Happn etc. All work and are much fun. However, I found I got quickly bored with repetitive convos (my lack of patience when having long convos with someone I may not like at all also didn't help).

The best dates/encounters I've had always came as a result of approaching women on the street or in a bar/lounge in a very straightforward manner (as I'm rather direct).

Know what you like, go for it and have some fun with it;)

Although I must admit I'm not even putting in any effort, I'm happy single.

Or she'll think you're a creepy weirdo for pretending to be married and have kids just to meet women.

Out comes the pepper spray.

I would assume dating apps are the way to meet people nowadays.

30’s and single is probably half the population

I’m with Paul. Plus, I actually don’t want to understand women. Women understand women and they hate each other.

You can literally meet women anywhere. If I knew 20 years ago what I know now I'd be chasing after every piece of ass with zero shame. Damn those wasted years.

If i may, the question should be how do women find / meet you. What are you doing so that women who meet your needs vie for your attention.

Strip clubs.

Seriously I was dating up a storm in LA when I moved there and after 5 years I got tired of it. Then when playing hockey one night I had an electrical heart issues and long story short, while I was laying naked on the operating table I asked out the nurse who was putting pressure on my groin to stop the bleeding after the removable of the catheter in a vein.

Been together 28 years now.

Hang out at bars. Met my future wife there (bartending) when I was 43. We’ve been married for 20 years.

1. Learn how to talk to anyone. Men, women, people on the street, people in lines. Soon you will be able to strike up a conversation with anyone at anytime and it will be a genuine conversation. Not some pickup BS that women encounter every single day from every single piece of swinging sausage that/thinks he has game.

2. Start talking to everyone. People will see you as confident. That is the first spark of attraction.

3. Once you have started a casual converstion with a woman you are interested - shut up.

4. Listen. Listen well. This phase can last for five minutes or fifty years depending on how much you guys like each other.

How do you meet women when you're single and over 30?

Simple, get a puppy and take it to a dog park.

dating is easier over 30 because by then, you should have more money and be in a better place then you were at 20.
