Strike up a conversation

It seems that I hear alot of crying on here about not finding anyone. crying
I guess some think that this is the only way to go, and get frustrated when it doesn't happen. dunno
There are other things to do to make yourself known and possibly find someone right up the road for you,
don't just leave it to this site to find someone. For a really long time I didn't get myself out there to meet people, I worked and came home and took care of my kids. sigh
But now, I get out there. I smile and I talk to people. I talked to a guy behind me in the checkout line at Walmart. He was a really sweet man, seemed interested , but I got nervous when I found out he was a doctor and I froze. Dambit.doh help
But the point is, I talked to him. I didn't just stand there and say nothing. If you are at a checkout line anywhere and someone next to you looks like someone u might be interested in, just strike up a conversation. He did. Too bad I froze! frustrated

Silverstarwave I agree with you on this issue.People say they are lonley but won't put themselves ou there.I have when not in a commited relationship,done as you.I struck up or a man struck up conversation and a few times it went beyond that.I also went to groups or events to meet someone and did.Like a volunteer group,your doing 2 things in 1.Let neighbors,freinds,co-workers know your looking to meet.Just being a smiling outgoing person helps.I know some people are shy but like you said there are ways other than cyberspace to in reality meet.I love this site and have met some good men and have made freinds.I'm not putting it down or I wouldn't be here.Just wanted to agree with you for saying what I say to others off and on.handshake take care and next time,thaw quicklylaugh

Silverstar....... I think you are right. I never thought about that. I have been in public places where I got the feeling a man was trying to talk to me. Earlier in the week, I was in Burger King and a guy gave me a big smile and mumbled something. I thought he was good-looking and he seemed to be about my age. I remember thinking I would love to meet someone like him, but like an iodit, I froze and said nothing instead of asking him to repeat what he said.

Thank you. From now on if someone seems to be trying to talk to me, I will give it a try. But one question, is that considered a pick-up? I mean how do you get it across to the guy that you don't usually go into Walmart, Burger King and start talking to strange men?
