How to meet girls during COVID times?

[Lyubov]

All the ways I usually meet girls aren't so much a thing now. I used to go to bars and clubs to meet girls and occasionally use tinder. I'm about to move to a place I think I'll have better luck meeting girls during the daytime when chilling at the cafe and walking around so I'm optimistic. I'm feeling quite lonely though recently. How have you all met girls during COVID times besides tinder? I uninstalled tinder a while back cause I don't like the feel of it.

Well I met my virgo green chick during Covid in park. Latest one (well I've seen her before but no conversation or anything but we exchanged looks) I've met her infront of bank.She was returning from job and I approached her. 

Oh poor tinder. I just don't know to send pictures of my leg. (how people came up with such ideas). 

Probably I am missing  all of the fun I guess. 

I'm moving to a new room next week and it is close to both a university and a downtown where lots of people go to hang out so I think I'm going to have way more opportunities like this soon.

Now is not a good time for such things.

It's smarter to focus for the next year on improving other parts of your life.

Why ice skate up hill?

You can resume dating after Covid passes.

Listen to Leo. Be responsible ro yourself and everyone else too. Here covid situation is not like in US. US much more serious yeah yeah many factors. 

But here in Serbia (thanks to pretty much authoritarian style of rule) measures from start were on high level and people are indeed disciplinated and what not situation with Covid is pretty much under control. So I could play and those women too. 

There were many wars in this region and all sort if problems so people are quite ready disciplinated and organised for this type od situations. 

 

Hmm yeah good point. It is worse here than in Europe. I saw your situation on the news with the riots and all though. Stay safe!

Well I'm just feeling quite lonely. I got caught in a situation due to COVID where I'm away from all my friends and the girl I was seeing and after 6 months of this it is starting to catch up to me. I think men need feminine energy around them to really keep them feeling emotionally healthy.

@Lyubov Do you have the opportunity to visit parks, go hiking, swimming, do outdoor stuff? That seems to be the place where I see people interacting normally and comfortably right now. Helps with the loneliness even if you don't meet someone.

Your ancestors died faced down in the mud in the trenchs.

You'll survive a year of no feminine energy.

Don't forget how much worse life can be.

@Leo Gura  Definately, the responsible thing to do is not to date until this is over 

But I understand your point@Lyubov

As i mentioned before I am in the same situation regarding males. Got some work to do on so many areas of my life but also during this COVID thing I work as a first line responder and even I got immersed in all the chaos and have  been exposed to covid i feel that more than ever i need some kind of support from the other areas in my life (friends, hobbies,self actualization ....even dating). It's like some kind of "hurry"  i got into to put my life in order because i feel having wasted my time and now lose it because of my exposure to the virus.

@Lyubov Same man, I really miss going to bars and clubs. I dislike Tinder, cos I'm bad at taking pictures and dislike the superficiality.

If Covid passes.  Ha.

[Danioover9000]

   Not the best time to date. Best time to be in solitude.

@Lyubov Gym, library any closed environment. Also the mask hides your face which helps you if you dont look very good since it will be just your personality and body to judge you on.

[StarStruck]

You can live in the best location for meeting a partner but you can still not meet anybody. Something to think about. 

[Hello from Russia]

@Lyubov Damn, I thoght you're a girl

[LfcCharlie4]

Online, Tinder / Bumble / Hinge / Instagram etc is your best bet. 

Pubs / Bars are open in the UK now also, but yeah online is your best bet. 

Check out Playing With Fire on YT and their Online 'love reports'

I really would like to go out tonight since I just moved to a city with lots of beautiful women in it and I'm seeing some bars are full at night but I am conflicted and feel it's irresponsible and not the best idea :\ I don't wanna be one of those people who says don't worry about it and spreads covid around to other people.

This question of satisfying base needs and loneliness versus Covid I think is a good discussion to have.  

Personally, I've struggled immense psychological pain and agony from not having social relationships through life (for some reason, throughout my life I've never really found connection and friends etc.... probably trauma related).  I find myself in positions where sometimes the emotional pain can be almost too much.  

I also recognize that increasing Covid spread could prolong any restrictions. 

Seems to me like it's very contextual:  if your mental health has been decent, and the area or country you live in is high in Covid, it's probably best to not go dating.  On the other end of the spectrum, if your mental health is really bad, and you're in a relatively safe place from Covid, it might be wise to cautiously pick one person to date with.  

Balance.
