How can I change my approach to dating as a woman? Never had a boyfriend and looking to change that
Hi,
So I 23f have never had a boyfriend, no sex, etc (not religious, just didn’t prioritize in high school or college). I’ve tried the apps on two separate occasions (a year a part) and dated guys that I thought would make great longterm partners, but things ended around the 2 month mark for reasons outside of my control.
After having deleted the apps, I’ve decided I don’t really see myself using them ever again due to bad experiences. Things like being over-sexualized, being ghosted, bad communication, withholding information that impacts compatibility (ex. one guy had family that would disown him if we dated (due to race), but didn’t tell me until like 6 dates in lol), etc.
Now that college is over, the window of having consistent access to guys my age is over. Now, I just go to work, hang out with my friends 1-2x per week, and go to the gym. My current hobbies include self studying Portuguese and Spanish, horseback riding, Pilates, and going to different coffee shops (I’m not a regular anywhere lol). I’m trying to make an effort to have more coed hobbies going forward, so for example, I’ve enrolled in coed soccer. I should also probably mention that I don’t drink, smoke, or go clubbing. I just don’t have friends that are really into that, so I’ve never gone).
I just feel like outside of the apps, my chances are almost 0%. So, is there anything I’m missing or that I can change about my approach to meeting and dating men? Any other coed activities that I can partake in? I’m not really super pressed to date right now, but if I meet a guy in the wild and thing click, I’m not opposed to pursuing it. I know there’s no pressure, but I would like to make myself more available for it to happen. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks
