What is the best way to meet women?

Women make up about half of the population of our world. So you'd think there would be plenty of places to meet them, right? Well, if you're a guy who's been striking out on a regular basis with women, or just having a hard time meeting the ones who will give you the time of day, you'd probably disagree with this assessment.

But the problem isn't that you can't meet them, it's that you can't find the right places to meet them. This article discusses some of the best places to meet women, with a little hint on what to do when you get there.

1. Join a class at the gym. Though women predominantly dominate the class load at a gym, this doesn't mean that classes were made for them. More than likely, you'll be one of the only men in the class. You'll stand out among the beautiful women surrounding you. Besides, most women will find it endearing when you try to pose a downward dog in yoga class.

2. A cocktail party is a great way to meet a woman, too. Though bars are normally a bad way to meet someone, a cocktail party is a bit more formal making it easier to socialize and communicate on a different level. Friends and close acquaintances usually throw cocktail parties; so it’s a safe bet that this group of people has already weeded out the lame ones.

3. You can find them on dating websites or in online flirt communities. And, what's even more interesting, you also find literally millions of single women on social networks. Yes, I am talking literally about millions.

4. Social networking, on the other hand, would be more like meeting your dream girl through your circle of friends. Surveys show that 56% of people in a relationship actually met their partners through friends or on their job. If you ask women what they believe is the best way to meet a partner, a whole 73% of them will say their social circle: Girls expect their dream partner to show up not on some fancy dating website but rather through common friends, in social activities, on their job or at school.
