I meet women are car forums. They are crawling with 'em.

My single golf buddy is doing that.

The instructor comes along and taps him on the shoulder every ten minutes - seems the women have to share his body.

Must be hell.

Going to night school is a good way. You improve yourself, and you meet women who are trying to improve themselves. I met my future wife in grad school working on our MBAs.

I'm a Dentist so I see hundreds of woman a month that really have a lot going on. Single, smart, attractive, pretty. You name it. It seems a disproportionate amount of women like this go to the Dentist office because the care about their appearance. Have him hang out at Dentist office reception rooms! My point is that they are out there, plenty of woman. Some may be in "relationships" but are still available. (Dating for 5 years, no commitments, etc.) I would get out as much as possible and put yourself in areas that would increase your odds of meeting the opposite sex. Avoid bars, at least the ones know as pick up joints, as much as possible. I actually met my wife 14 years when she was referred to me from a friend. After seeing her once where I worked, she left a note on my car to go out for lunch. I waited a week to call her (I just got out a long term relationship mess and was looking for some time off). Married in less then a year, 3 kids, things couldn't be better. Tell him to stay active, do things he enjoys, and He'll find somebody.

I've heard of that happening too, not cool. Usually that stuff comes out of chat rooms, but sure enough, happens on dating sites too.

There is another one that just came out, I think it's called True or something, and they actually do a background check for felons and married people. Sucks that it has to be that way, but that's life sometimes.

Oh yes, internet dating. I had a fabulous time internet dating for a couple of years.

Mind you, just a warning; a lot of fat women do internet dating. Fine if you like fat women I guess but I tend to specialise in slim, lean, sporty, good looking ones.

My strategy was to date any ole thing so that way I was nice and relaxed, and certainly not needy, for when I'd meet my sort at the beach or in a cafe.

Met my wife on ICQ. I had been chatting with women all over the world. I loved the conversations and wasn't really hunting for a mate as I already had a F buddy. I found we had allot in common and later started setting a time each night to chat with each other. The rest is history.

Were talking about taking ball room dancing lessons soon...

Married for 15 years. Three kids. Live in California. He lost half the house, half the savings and retirement, half the assets and will pay spousal support for life. Ultimately his indiscretion will cost him millions.

A VERY wealthy friend once said: "why do you pay a woman for sex? So she won't be there the next morning."
