This.

If you’re religious, join a large church, synagogue, etc. with like-minded believers. If you have a cause you believe in, volunteer. If you are intellectually curious, take a class, ho to museum events, etc. Join a civic group to find civic minded individuals. Join a choir, sports team, garden club, hiking group, ballroom dance class, D&D gamers, etc. - whatever it is that you love.

Basically, live your life doing what makes you happy. The people you meet in doing so will be more likely to be compatible, either as friends or romantic partners, because of your common interests. If a romance develops, you’ll have something to build on and know that they accept you for who you are, and if it doesn’t, you’ll still have spent that time living your best life, rather than staying in a holding pattern waiting for someone else to make you happy. There’s an opportunity cost for everything, and while romance can be wonderful, every relationship requires compromises. While you’re waiting for the right person to come along, you are free to do whatever you want, without having to accommodate someone else’s opposing preferences. Take advantage of it while you can, and maybe you’ll find a sympathetic spirit along the way whose preferences will (mostly) align with your own.

Thank you this is helpful. I am not in college and not in my twenties at all. Never went to grad school though I didn't lack the GPA or the crates to attend. I am intellectually curious though and I love museums. I am not in DC proper but I live in Nova. I haven't been to church in some years but I agree that it is a great place to meet people. I might try to look for volunteer in my area or taking up a hobby or a class.

Bookstores and libraries may also have lectures/events that you might find interesting.

This will be the over 65 crowd though.

Uh that show was a lot of things but it was not realistic or relevant to dating in 2025.

Sex and the City was practically a guidebook for how most Gen X and Millennial women have approached dating the last 25 years. It's been so influential on our popular culture, that women who have never even seen it have been shaped by it.

Granted, Gen Z women may be less invested in that image and more individualistic than previous generations, but they're still influenced by it nevertheless.

What are examples of methods used in Sex in the City that work or are commonly used by real women?
