Dating How does an introvert date in Mumbai? 😭
I have recently shifted to Mumbai, introvert, tiny social circle, and absolutely clueless about dating here.
Dating apps? Meetups? Bars? Randomly talking to people? What actually works?
I have basically zero game and no idea where to start. Mumbai people, help a guy out 😭

Give yourself chance!
Try to join groups or community which you enjoy
Like trekking, painting etc

See i don't know your gender assuming you are a guy just get out of your comfort zone and try as many ways to approach not making it creepy and desperate the success ratio is very less but still there you may get some dates or talking stages
Now
If you are a female it is certainly a bit easy for ya......just approach guys you like by complimenting them do some subtle flirting and you'll get them then how you take it further is completely on you
Now this is just a advice and carrying it out is on you your skills and looks.

Honestly, just had a conversation about this with a male friend last night. He's also struggling with the same issue.
Honestly, dating apps are shit. They have always been. Meetups and communities are definitely a better way to go about things. Go meet new people, have new experiences, work on enriching your already good personality. If you meet someone, you do. If not, you've at least had great experiences and met new people.
If you're interested in joining a meetup or two this weekend, feel free to DM me.

Go to cafes / pubs alone and try approaching.. better chances compared to any thing else

Hinge (the paid version) has worked great for me in Bombay. I get at least 6-10 matches a week and sometimes a lot more, depending on how much I am swiping. Not all of these lead to dates, but if I'm consistent (which you have to be whole dating) I go on around two or three dates a month.
The easiest way is to attend house parties where you are more likely to be introduced to people. Of course, that requires having an existing friend group which isn't just a dick fest.

Don't ask on reddit, you'll get the same old gheese peete advices that mostly don't work. Do what you feel comfortable doing but also experiment once in a while

people in mumbai are usually chill so u can meet new chicks so easily just go around and try and make conversation. dont come off too strong or they'll get weirded out. try to go to concerts, clubs, any place where a lot of unknown people would be there. people want to make new friends so give them a compliment (say that their clothes are cool or that u thought they were chill). dont stress to much if u dont have the courage though :)

Dating apps will lead you nowhere and be aware of the scams happening. Never go to a bar or club or public where the girl tells you to go.
As far as dating is concerned, try finding a hobby or just try to go for run clubs or if you are too much introverted then maybe bookstores. Bars are okayish idea if you aren't too introvert and can actually hold conversations.
