5. 1. Walk a Dog – Franklin parks
Having a dog forces you to get out of the
house at least once a day and gives you the
opportunity to meet other animal lovers in
your neighborhood or in park. It’s a great
ice-breaker and gives you something to talk
about. If you don’t have a dog, I’m sure you
have friends who’d love to let you walk
theirs!
Conversation: “This was fun. If you ever
want to do this again or even go for a cup of
coffee, here’s my number. Text me and I’ll
call you. It would be great to see you again.”

6. 2. Franklin - Cafes and pubs
Cafes and pubs have been the traditional
hanging out places for most single of a
town. If you have already done the
routine without success, don't lose heart.
Perhaps you need to tweak the timing of
your regular latte - like make it early
evenings when the young college crowd
frequents the cafes instead of late evening
when they are more likely to head home
to study. Also explore other cafes in your
city instead of the ones nearest to your
office or apartment. Who knows you
might get lucky elsewhere!

7. 3. Join social networking sites
Yet another aspect of the internet which can help
you to find a partner is the world of the social
networking sites. Facebook, Twitter, Instagram... are
all vast online communities of friends and contacts
where you can hope to come across a person who
will not only like both your profile but also your
areas of interests and pursuits. But be careful since
this may act as a double-edged weapon too and a
potential girlfriend may well be put off by your
photos at a drinking binge or at a strip-club.
I love facebook group very much, just search
keywords: love, dating, friends or your city. Then
join groups and post your questions or answer. You
will find many friends these. 7ManInLove88
8. 4. Franklin - Online dating sites:
Online really is where people who want to
date are these days – especially busy
people who don’t have time (or don’t
enjoy) the bar/club scene. And, it’s only
getting more popular every day.
The downside of online dating is that you
will be judged in less than ten seconds on
your profile photo. If you are not
photogenic or your photo isn’t good, you
won’t get good results. On the other hand,
I know so many people who’ve met their
significant others online!

9. 5. Franklin – Volunteer jobs
It’s hard to think of a place where you’d meet a better
type of person than at a volunteer event. There are tons
of great young single people who sacrifice their nights
and even weekends to volunteer.
Of course there are many, many more volunteer
organizations, ranging from political, environmental,
animal rescue and so forth. Just Google what you’re
interested in and you’re bound to find a cause that
interests you in L.A.
I’ve been impressed at how many young single women
are at these volunteer events. At many volunteer events
I’ve been to, it’s been mostly single women there. Guys,
time to step it up! Not only will you be doing something
good for the world, but you could meet someone special.9ManInLove88
10. 6. Franklin - Library or bookstore.
She can be caught up inside the worlds
contained in her books, but if you allow
her, she’ll gladly introduce them to
you. She’ll tell you all about the
wonderful places she’s read about, as
well as all the interesting characters.
You can talk to her about anything and
everything. It can be about local
politics, a hunger strike in some far off
country, the recent advances in space
travel, or even the funniest exploits of
some of the royal mistresses throughout
history.

11. 7. Franklin - Grocery Store
Here's the secret most men don't know:
you don’t actually have to know anything
about cooking to pick up a girl in a grocery
store.
Hang around the produce section and when
you see a girl you like say something like,
“Hey, I see your getting eggplant (or
whatever). I promised my mom/sister/aunt
I’d make her dinner tonight and I know
she’s trying to eat healthy. I’m hopeless
with this stuff. Can I ask you what you're
planning for that eggplant? Like how to
cook it?”
11ManInLove88
12. 7. Franklin - Grocery Store (con…)
Now you’ve opened her up. You’re like a lost
puppy and her guard is totally down. She can
give you advice on the eggplant and even some
advice on the whole meal. Healthy cooking is
very trendy right now (as it should be!) and she
is probably into it too. In addition, how cute are
you for making your mom dinner? Once you’ve
got her talking, you can introduce yourself.
Follow through: “Wow. Thank you so much.
This was a lot of help. I’m going to take your
advice and try my best. Hey, what’s your
number? I want to update you on how it goes. If
all goes well, my mom will probably want to
thank you too.” 12ManInLove88
13. 8. Your Network of Friends
This might seem like somewhat of a non-
suggestion compared to the other items on
this list, but really one of the best ways to
meet people is through your existing friends.
You know that birthday party that someone
invited you to, but you don’t know anyone
else there? Well, go to that party. Same with
that wedding, where you only know the bride
or groom and no one else. Go to that
wedding. You know those annoying
Facebook events that people keep inviting
you to and that you keep deleting? Go to
those Facebook events. Utilize your network
of friends to meet new ones. 13ManInLove88
14. 9. Franklin - Education classes
If you want to meet people interested in
the same hobbies or topics as you are,
try taking a class. Community colleges
have really inexpensive classes. Just be
sure to take a class that is truly useful or
interesting to you though, as there may
or may not be single people there,
depending on what topic you choose.

15. 10. Franklin - Athletic Teams or Clubs
Want to meet single people who are in
good shape? Join a sports team or club!
No, I’m not talking about joining a
gym, but more an actual team. Here are
some ideas:
Volleyball: I joined a volleyball class at
Santa Monica College, and it was filled
with young single people. Even better
would be to join a beach volleyball
team.

16. 10. Franklin - Athletic Teams or Clubs (con…)
Kickball: I didn’t even know they had
kickball for adults, but a friend of mine is
on a team and she loves it.
Yoga: Tons more women than men.
Hiking: Somehow there are always
significantly more women than men on
group hikes that I go on. Check out the
Franklin Hiking Group Meetup.
Running: Check out the LA Running Club
or many clubs like this.
Biking: Bike shops usually run beginner-
intermediate bike rides for free. Check one
near you. 16ManInLove88
17. 11. Franklin - Partner dancing
Partner dancing is one of the best
ways I’ve found to meet single
people. If you are willing to devote
the time required (which is
considerable, I admit) to learn the
dance, you’ll meet a ton of people, I
guarantee it. Salsa and Swing dance
events have tons of single people of
all ages!
17ManInLove88
18. 11. Franklin - Partner dancing (con…)
For older singles, there are also
ballroom and Tango dance events.
This might sound crazy, but don’t
rule out country line dancing. There
are single people of all ages there and
free lessons before the band goes on.
It’s pretty fun if you don’t take
yourself too seriously.

19. 12. Franklin - Churches / Religious Services
If you think that only your grandma
and old people go to church in
Franklin, think again. Many of
today’s churches cater to young
people and feel more like rock
concerts than church.

20. 12. Franklin - Churches / Religious Services (con…)
Please note that is hard to meet
people by simply going to church on
Sundays and leaving afterward. There
are just too many people and Sunday
service is not conducive to meeting
them. Your best bet for meeting
people is to join a smaller church
group that meets outside of church.
I’m sure there are also wonderful
people at synagogues, mosques, and
places where people of other religious
beliefs meet.

21. 13. Franklin - Singles Events
Networking is a good thing. You might
find a new friend, business contact, or
someone special. Go with an open
mind and try to meet people of all
types. Check online for networking
events in your profession, alumni
events, or singles events.
