Clubs are a great place to
party; but are usually not the number one place love connections are made.
Note: there is a difference between a genuine love connection and a boóty call.
The latter can almost always be
found at a club, in case that’s what you’re looking for; but if you’re looking
for more, you have to consider the places you’re searching.
I’ve met a lot of guys at
parties and the club; but none of the relationships ever went past a phone call
or a couple of dates. Usually things end like this because the guy calls me the
wrong name when he contacts me the next day because he’s probably collected too
many numbers. Or sometimes, the connection falls short because he doesn’t seem
as attractive on the inside or outside like when I took his number in the
dimly-lit club.
Consider this: The place you
meet your future boo shouldn’t be the place you want him to stop going after
you start dating. Basically, if he frequents the clubs when you meet him, he
may not be ready to give that up just because he’s with you. After all, that is
the place the two of you first encountered one another.
This is not to say that no love
connections are made in the club; but it’s typically not the place you should
go to seek out a romantic encounter. There are plenty of good places to meet
good men. And usually it’s best to search where the two of you would have a
common interest. If you love jazz, go to more venues that highlight that type
of music and vibe. If you could live in a book all day, go to a bookstore to
meet your future bookworm boo. Or if you want a man of God or at least one who
is trying to be, then you should probably attend more church outings (don’t sit
in service peeping the scene, that’s not the time or place). If you’re not sure
where to start, join the Single’s Ministry at your church.
While I wish that I knew all of
the best places to find men, I don’t. I do know that every woman looking for
love should be more mindful of the places they’re looking. I’ve heard so many
of my friends and at times myself, say we hope we meet a good guy while going
out to a not-so-good place. So before you give up and say that there simply
aren’t any good men out there, evaluate the places you go and have been
looking.
Are you guilty of looking for
love in all the wrong places?
