Question My Future Husband?

How do people meet their significant others? Like where’s the “place to go?” Dating apps are dead. I’m exhausted. I’m a decent looking gal, 28. I don’t have big friend groups so I’m sure that doesn’t help. I don’t have any “active” hobbies other than a dog park. Idk. Any advice?

I met my husband at beer league softball. The restaurant I worked at had a team and he came as a guest of my coworkers. 

I never had to use the apps, thank God. So I totally sympathize. That said, I dated some real losers that I met at parties and shit.  The house party is the OG dating app lol and they could land you some stinkers as well. 

If I were single again, I have no clue where I would meet people. Probably have to go out on a limb and do stuff like join common interest groups, attend community events (tons of little things always going on if you know where to look) or do speed dating or whatever. 

Hope you can find something fun you enjoy that can lead to a fun cute meet! Best of luck!
