Singles- if you find yourself staying home these days on Friday and Saturday nights, don't despair.
Dating dry spells happen to everyone.
So here's how to cope when they happen to you. This comes from Netscape.com's relationship expert, Laura Snyder:
Protect your pride. Try not to make a connection between the length of time you've been alone and the quality of person you are. The more you dwell on it, the more desperate you'll seem.
And desperate people aren't likely to attract a date.
Repeat after me, "Being single does not define me!"
Time is on your side. Now that you've got all that free time, why not use it to do something you've always wanted to do? Use your energy to invest in non-dating pursuits, and you may even discover a lifelong passion.
Have patience. Remember that your luck will eventually balance out. Both hot and cold dating streaks come to an end.
And to help your social calendar along, here are the top 7 best places to meet someone new according to the information website "About.com":
7. At weddings
6. Walking your dog
5. At a bookstore or coffee house
4. At a class
3. At a church function.
2. On the job
And meeting people through family and friends is the #1 way to make a love connection.
