[quote=Anonymous]I do this, but not for the purpose of meeting men.  I have two nights off from my daughter each week, and I'm single at 39.  On my weeknight off, I take a 6:00 yoga class and then grab a bite somewhere nearby, by myself.  If I stay and eat (instead of grabbing takeout), I'll generally have a glass of wine or beer and it's unusual when I don't end up talking to people sitting at the bar with me.  I've had some great conversations, and have gotten asked for my number about half of the time.

Other times, I'm scheduled to meet my friends somewhere and I get done with my errands and housework early and decide to head over to the bar/restaurant early.  I'll grab a bite and a drink while waiting for my friends to arrive, and people often talk to me.  I like talking to strangers.  You hear interesting stories.

Find a restaurant that is mid-priced (not super cheap, not super pricey) and has guy-friendly food and a good beer and/or wine selection.  TV's at the bar are helpful.  And bring a book (NOT chick-lit) or the crossword - those are good conversations.  I met so many guys the night I brought "The Naked Economist" to a bar.  (I like reading Economics, and that title caught my eye.  Book was decent.)  You have to give people an opening.[/quote]
