The Problem

Introverted and inexperienced adults struggle to start dating because their routines provide few socially acceptable opportunities to approach new people. Dating apps may feel hookup-oriented or ineffective, while unstructured public approaches create fear of rejection and uncertainty about how to begin.

Potential Solution

Operate recurring, ticketed social clubs built around cooperative activities, guided introductions, and low-pressure conversation rotations. Hosts screen attendees, balance groups, establish conduct rules, and facilitate interactions without presenting the event as an aggressive matchmaking or coaching program.

Why Now?

The signals repeatedly recommend clubs, hobby gatherings, friend introductions, and speed dating as alternatives to app-dependent dating. That creates an opening for a local operator to package those fragmented options into a consistent, beginner-friendly experience.

Things I have done to try and meet someone as a 36 year old man. Looking for additonal suggestions.
Start taking swing or salsa dancing classes and going to the social dances regularly. They're full of women who go every week and as you dance with everyone you'll get to know everyone. It's also a fun hobby that's great exercise, good challenge for the brain, doesn't need to involve alcohol, and usually has a great community in any city.

You may have already done this, but networking with friends, family and colleagues can help meet people. Let them know you are looking and having trouble meeting someone you click with. Other ideas: trivia seems to be a thing lots of women like, for volunteering, I have always worked with animal rescues and those are dominated by women. Lots of shelters will let you take a dog for a day out and that’s a great way to meet people in the wild. Sounds like you are really trying! Best of luck!
