I've made a few new years resolutions and although most are to do with getting healthier, one is that I would like to get a serious girlfriend.
Although I am not a model, many women consider me to be quite handsome. I'm tall, have a muscular build and a decent face. I think I dress well enough. I'm aiming to get back the really good physique that I used to have. I have been on antidepressant for a year but am tapering off it as it caused me to put on 8-10kg. Not enough that you would look at me and think I was fat but enough to give me some slight love handles and lose the muscular definition I used to have (I used to have a six pack). I have several university degrees and have a decent job. I'm pretty good at talking to women and flirting.
I'm 28.
Until a week ago, I lived in a small town and there were virtually no single women close to my age. So apart from dating a girl for a month (who lived in Melbourne) at the start of the year, I have pretty much had no sex or dates since May.
All my previous girlfriends have started as a one night stand from a bar. However, I feel that this is not the best way to meet women. I'm trying to cut drastically back on my substance use and save money, so going to bars/nightclubs all the time is probably not the best thing.
So does anyone have any tips on how to meet women who would make great partners? I don't have any single female friends that I would be interested in dating. At my new job there were quite a few girls my age who are attractive but dating at work can be problematic. Apart from going to the gym, I don't have any hobbies that allow me to meet others. I am wanting to get back into boxing and muay thai but that is generally something that men tend to go too.
What I'm looking for:
Intelligence is a big turn on for me. In fact, it was probably the trait I find most attractive in a woman. Also, someone who is compassionate, caring, interesting and open minded. I do love tall, tanned brunettes but I have dated and slept with woman of many different races and appearances. Good sex is also great (although it is not like you can tell if someone is good in bed until you actually sleep with them). I am a bit picky when it comes to girlfriends.
Any other suggestions on how to go about this?
