5. RECREATION

I've often heard you should "be the things you want to attract", so why not take a up a hobby or take a class where that special someone would be.  The Recreator is full of classes and social happenings in Fort Collins.  Learn to cook Indian food, take a Zumba class, make pottery or learn to speak French.  Fort Collins truly has something for everyone.  Step outside your comfort zone and your current social circle and try something new.


4. THE BAR

People sometimes are reluctant to tell you they are dating someone they met in a bar, perhaps because they fear you will assume they were wearing beer goggles.  Well, I disagree.  The bar is an excellent place to loosen up a little and meet someone.  Just make sure you are sober enough to get an honest impression and don't take it too far that first night, the goal should be a phone number and a plan for a future date.  Fort Collins has a lot of bars to choose from.  Pick bars that have good lighting and limited noise, this will help with a  good judgment decision.  I think happy hour is an excellent time to meet good people at the bar. The important thing is to be confident and talk to people about real stuff, like books, travel or music.

3. FUNDRAISING EVENTS

Non profit events are happening all the time in Fort Collins in the form of breakfasts, gala's, wine festivals, 5k runs, art shows and more.  Find a cause that you care about and get involved.  These fundraising events have become quite the social scene.   Animals, kids, fighting for cures, environmental issues and so many more ways you can get involved and meet someone who equally cares about something important to you.  The United Way of Larimer County is a great resource for finding most of these organizations.


2. NETWORKING THROUGH WORK ASSOCIATIONS

You may think there is absolutely no one to date at your workplace and you may be right.  But don't rule out your coworkers connections as a way to meet singles in Fort Collins.  Also, take advantage of any networking events or groups your company may be a part of.  Business After Hours events, conferences, trainings and work gathering can all lead to a new connection.  It's another reason to act your best at work and don't just treat it as the means to a paycheck.


1. INTERNET DATING

My number one recommendation as the best place to meet singles in Fort Collins has now produced 3 weddings including mine and 2 happy relationships amongst my social group.   Two words, Internet Dating.  It's not taboo, it's not embarrassing.  We live in a forward thinking and tech savvy place.  Single adults in Fort Collins are actively internet dating.  So you have lots of choices.  It's a great way to get straight to the point of you who are and why you want to meet someone.  Are you ready to settle down?  Are you a single Mom?  Are you just looking for someone to go to the movies with?  Whatever it is, you express that from the beginning, in your bio.  I believe you must abide by these two things to successfully internet date:  Be Honest and Go On Lots of Dates.   I met my husband on Match.com.  I paid for 3 months and decided to stop giving so much thought to potential matches and MEET THEM.  This narrowed it down quickly, you have to meet them or you could keep emailing forever.  My husband was date number 5.   There are so many dating sites now, you need to find one you feel comfortable with and actively use it.   LoveBug, eHarmony, PlentyOfFish and Match.com are the sites I hear about most from my friends.

Fort Collins is one of the best places on earth to live, the only thing that makes it better is having a partner for all the fun.  If I have missed any other Best places to meet singles in Fort Collins, please leave a comment.  Cheers to dating!!
