Jumping Back into the Dating Scene

Advice Columnist Zuri Gives a Woman Creative Pointers on Where to Meet Potential Dates and Jumpstart Her Love Life

Dear Zuri,

After ending a five year relationship, I find myself newly single and out of practice with the dating scene. Where are some creative places to meet new people?

Thanks!

Dear MB,

Kudos to you on taking the initiative to get back in the romantic driver's seat and check out the potential dating traffic! First of all, it's important to focus on places that interest you. That way, you meet people that not only share your passions but you can develop friendships that can slowly lead to a love relationship. If you like listening to music, then a concert, dance club or radio station party in your area might be a great fit. If you are an outdoorsy person who enjoys staying in shape, then a health club or a local sports program such as hiking, running, softball, hockey, bicycling, tennis may work out better.

Here are some other great choices that are worth considering:
