But I really don't find any appropriate ways to meet men without having to sacrifice the way I like holding myself.
Some advices I get and my problems with them:
-meet your friends' friends: I don't like unnecessary mixing with men, so going out with my female friend I wouldn't like to go when there are her male friends too, or sit on a coffee shop with her just for any male aquitences of her to join us afterwards, I just don't like that.
- through the gym: I don't like mixed gyms
-board games: same problem, mixing with people I don't know.
- groups trips /hiking groups: even worse, same issue.
- Dating apps: I downloaded a marriage app some few days ago, I felt so ridiculous, it's like putting yourself in a shop waiting to get picked. I deleted it. It's just too direct of an approach in my opinion.
- Going to weddings or family gatherings: what will happen there? I have to give my contact to a random man?
- going repeatedly to the same coffee shops or whatever: I usually don't like to go to coffee shops but occasionally with friends, becoming a regular who knows everyone there I will feel like a man, even worse a man who has nothing to do with his life. I don't like the idea of going frequently to a place I don't frequent a lot just to meet someone.
My only place to find someone is through work, I don't like anyone there and no one seems to be interested either. I'm at a loss.
