Thinking Outside The Box A Slightly Different Approach

Thinking Outside The Box A Slightly Different Approach


So I’m thinking outside the box so I can eventually get . . . inside a box – ooohhh the irony of it all.

There are a couple problems with living out in BFE when you’re on inter/web/nets dating sites; 1) there are few women around here who are on this site and they are either not interested in older guys (most local women on this site are in their 30s or 40s), or are actually part of a couple, 2) women get inundated with messages etc and may end up not responding to anyone. Those also happen to be 2 of the reasons why I don’t for these site(s). Also, there are generally more things to do, dating wise, in bigger cities and I do go to events in the big city here in AZ.

Given situation expanding outside my local area seems like an option I should at least explore. But . . . ‘getting noticed’, since I’m not even close to the city, does not happen by itself. So a different approach seems like it would/could be useful in deepening the “talent pool”.

I’ve seen on some women’s Status and/or Intro lines they put out there they will be in X-town on xx-date. While may work well for women, probably not-so-much for a guy. Also, being a chronologically advanced guy doesn’t bode well for approach either. But . . .

Would an event I’m thinking of going to draw eyes/attention/interest in my direction? For instance what if I put in my Status and/or Intro lines; “Looking for a Lady Companion for X-event. Inquire within.” It would be something I have not seen much. But, I would still need to get it seen by the women in the big city.

OK you crazy wadda ya think? Does I gots sumthin or be I kwazy? Any tweaks to my idea?

    Sounds like a plan to me!

    Gigs, theatre, day long events, all good for a start? Any racing events in your area that might interest a lady?

    There's an annual cheese-rolling competition in England (not sure where), I mean, who could resist that???
Unfortunately the racing around here is kinda slim and expensive. I'm gonna see if a Renaissance Faire draws any lassies. I'm gonna pass on anything cheesy

Well we never really know for sure we're gonna get laid, but having fun is a good way to work up to it.

    I've been on and off this site for a number of years and have seen the female demographic change significantly in my area - the majority of females under 30 are bots/fake, and as you have seen yourself, there's a significant number of "couples" profiles masquerading as single females.

    I now think there's a bigger chance of meeting someone in the "real world" than using this site, but given my social skills even that would extremely remote.
In my state I don't come across many fakes, but my age range is set above the 40 yo mark. My town has few "social" spots /bars so that scene is out. It's kind of a crapshoot around here.
