Get off the PC and go and meet people mate, it's the best way IMO. Find a hobby, club etc that interests you, where you'll be able to meet new people.

If you want the internet route, only sites I know of are match.com and plentyoffish.com.

Oh yeah, and adultdatefinder.com Lol

I know of 2 men that come in my work place that have found partners over the internet and both ended up marrying them

I would also try and find out if there are any single nights (over 25/29) in your area,and maybe get a few mates to go along to those nights with you

also ads in local papers maybe

good luck in finding a new partner

as already said , plentyoffish as its 100% free and tbh ive found facebook better than any dating site !!!

As said before, go out, meet people and someone will come along. It really is the best way imho.

i cant agree im afraid. i was coming out of a nearly 20 yr marriage last year. i had no confidence to go out etc. i met my boyfriend on the internet and we are still seeing each other. my friends were worried at first when i met him but i had spoke to him on a forum, then emailed, msn and then text for a month before meeting him. i had spoken to him for hours so kinda knew him a lil (well more than a quick snog and grope up the dancing on a sat night) when i pointed out to my pals that some of them give their phone numbers to total strangers etc the were a bit shell shocked to realise i was right.

my advice would be go for it - you never know.

For every good story like Lainie's above there is always one that works out the wrong way. My cousin did exactly posted, and really thought she'd met a "keeper" (her words, not mine). Sadly, three months on, signs were there that all was not well, and another three months after that, after he'd wormed his way in to the house, it became very apparent he wasn't who/what she thought he was. When the mask comes off, things went downhill very quickly, and very badly. (I can't go into details because it's not place to so)

It's just something to remember, as in real life, sometimes things work well, other times, well, shit happens...

That's fair enough. In my experience if you want to meet people you need to socialise and that's not something that came easy for me. If you have no confidence then the internet is great but when I needed to find someone I just went out with some friends from work and when they got chatting to the ladies I joined in. They did all the difficult work and allowed me to to come through without being awkward and tongue tied.
My advice, try the internet, try going out with a few mates and see what happens. Just try it as you wont be able to regret it when you're dead.
I'm married now btw

Only bit of advice i would give is don't go into try hard mode!
There is nothing more desperate than a guy out trying his best to score with a semi, foaming mouth and a bag of one liners.!
Although im delighted it worked for you Lainie, i have always found dating sites a bit of a market tbh.
I would totally agree with Dazza, get out and meet people and have a bit of fun doing it.
My mate met the love of his life at a "Spanish" class last year, although he is still crap at Spanish he is madly in love..

I wonder how many people on this site met their partners in unusual circumstances?
