The article highlights Running Clubs as an alternative to traditional dating apps. It offers a unique way for people to connect with like-minded individuals while engaging in physical activity. Unlike dating apps, running Clubs fosters genuine connections and friendships through shared experiences and mutual interests. The app's founder claims it has led to numerous meaningful relationships and marriages among its users. Combining socializing with exercise, Running Clubs provides a refreshing alternative to the typical swiping culture of dating apps.

Talk about re-inventing the wheel.

Hey, people, if dating apps don't work out, go running and hiking in the woods. You know, like before the internet?

Yep.

try both.
One is not exclusive to the other.

I've spoken of the benefits of an "active" date. I've done this as a first date/meet several times, and it works fabulously—at least for me.

1. you get to see her in natural light, with minimal makeup
2. you get to see more of her body in sportier clothing
3. you get to determine if she is fit based on her gait, stamina, etc
4. time wasters will not go on an active date, and plenty of guys will be willing to take her out for lavish dinners in exchange for nothing - not you
5. It is more natural and low-pressure; if she is sweaty and worked up, her true personality will surface
6. it has the feel of a non-OLD way of meeting women and genuine
7. if you keep logistics tight and suggest the venue, you can opt for a light meal together in the evening. A "Hey, let's go jump in my hot tub!" because, at that point, there's less tension around physicality, having seen each other's bodies, etc.
8. I've banged chicks off the hiking path - it can be done...

I thought you meant running clubs as in bars and discotheques and I agreed with that.

That makes my post off topic, but I still believe that " running bars" is now the most successful way for a dude with a mouthpiece.

Real easy; go out look great and talk to women..despite the new common belief that its dead. If you struggle online( who doesn't????) perhaps you should go back to your old proven methods, such as being at places where people go to to have fun drink and perhaps even dance...

After COVID and years-long lockdown, we're all having to relearn how to live again

If only RCB Hansen would've had access to an app such as that

'Butcher Baker' Robert Hansen moved to Anchorage for medical treatment

The Alaska Department of Corrections has confirmed that serial killer Robert Hansen has been moved from Spring Creek Correctional Center in Seward to the Anchorage Correctional Complex.

He and those young ladies could've skipped the pleasantries, and gotten straight to the hunt

So long as Sasquatch doesn't get a whiff of all the pheromones in the air, then arrive to carry off your lady for a stab at interspecies breeding, a fella is gold

Yes. Activities that put you in an atmosphere that requires interaction do half the work for you. It probably works wonders.

It's how I pick up dates at the swimming pool.

No thanks...not interested in skinny fat chicks whose jeans make their ass look nice until they take their pants off and it's a bunch of flab because they ran off all their muscle.

I'm noticing them springing up in Australia

but its the same with singles events they are surging , I think most singles now seem to have accepted that swipe apps aren't working and are trying to find ways to meet in real life

The biggest problem is most single women will flat out refuse to go to anything alone so you end up trying to pick her up whilst also validating and trying to entertain her friends

I was at a singles event a couple weeks ago...... groups and pairs of women everywhere the novelty of approaching a group of 2-3 women who are actively looking to disqualify you for any minor inconvenience does get tiring

In the end I was literally saying to them " am I supposed to be trying to impress all of you " I said it in a half joking kind of way but the general consensus was " YES "

Which is hilarious given I wasn't really interested in any of them let alone wanting to impress them

For anything romantic to flourish you really need a 1 on 1 environment

The second you receive a permanent leg injury, your premature death timer has begun statistically, likewise having great mobility lends itself to living a longer, less dopamine dependent life because this hobby takes you away from the phone.

Being more healthy and being able to pay more attention to the person and less to your phone, probably what drives the successes

There is no better time to spit game than when you're out of breath.

Of course the author thinks it's a good idea because it's a woman (NY Times contributor Gina Cherelus).

"Daylight, sweat, men too tired to casually yap at me - what's not to like?"

Your libido and desire for female companions are for sure higher than mine.

As an introvert those 90min of MMA were enought to leave me socially drained for the rest of the day.
And keep in mind that the technique learning part was always with friends and only the sparring was with new people.

I would probably go there sprint for 15 minutes than leave...the small talk and frequent introductions would be a nightmare.

That's quite interesting.

Mystery has been on a few shows on YT. He said his method now is about meeting 'people' (instead of 'just' hitting on girls) and integrating himself into friend groups/merging his and the friend group of the girl that interests you. Like this you get the comfort and pre-selection automatically with it. According to him it's more effective, especially when sth longer should come out of it.

I think that could be a viable strategy in the modern dating environment, where women size you up for your social prowess.
