Church is a good bet....not a guarentee but a good place to start.

Good Luck!

A good one is worth working for....and praying for....there are so few of them out there these days.

I am thankful I have a good that believes in going to church...speaking of that.......it is getting late and the alarm will be going off soon to get up and get ready for Sunday service.

I agree with Stagegirl find a church with a singles ministry there are many, not saying you won't find a weed or two but I really feel God sent my husband to me so I suggest a conversation with God is a start. Alot of the single groups are very activie, movies, out to eat, etc. Some of the really large churches will have more singles. Try a couple you might be surprised. I wish you best luck, don't settle!!

Quite a few of my friends have met their partners through eharmony. The good thing about eharmony is that there's a detailed personality analysis, and they match you with people you're actually likely to be compatabile with. This is different to the other dating sites that will just match you with people who are the right gender, age, and near you.

I met my husband at a sporting school. Maybe that could be something that can help you with your weight-loss goals as well as introducing you to a new social group. A lot of sporting clubs have social events and a lively social scene. I met my husband doing martial arts, but I've also been involved in clubs for scuba diving, soccer, and Water polo that all had frequent BBQs and parties. At the very least, you might make some friends, and "the one" could be there, or your new friends might be able to introduce you to him!

Match.com is where I met my hubby. I have heard of a lot of couples finding success on match.com. Go to a sight that you need to pay for-then only serious men will be there-ones truly looking for someone special. Free sites attract all kinds and I wouldn't suggest going on them. Don't limit yourself to chance meetings in this computer age. Meet in a public place and for a drink/coffee. Don't spend months emailing only to find out you are not compatiable-try to meet after a brief correspondance. You will go through a lot of duds though-but he is out there-that special someone!

Match.com!

I have lost almost 100lbs, feel so confident & ready to date, but just moved to a big city where all I was told was how hard it is to meet guys (very touristy)....so after years of friend trying to get me online, which I thought was crap, I finally have in & signed up....started taking to a few guys just hours later but ine really stood out...we clicked so well, talked for a week, went it on a tuesday for one game of pool...that turned into 4 games, 2 drinks, & dinner....and a date the following 2 nights...we've been dating for a month and its AMAZING!!!!!!!!

Can't believe I'm saying this but match.com WORKS :) And yes, I chose it because I know lots of ppl who are married or engaged,and thet all met on match :)

I DID marry my Dr., family Dr., not Obgyn., or anything weird!!!!!! He passed away and I had a lot of dun on Match.com. YES! There are losers out there, but aren't they everywhere. I am still friends w 2 men I met 12 yrs. ago on Kiss.com from when I was single before. We still email, etc. So.............it can be a good thing. Fortunately, the weirdos USUALLY show their colors upfront, if u are looking. Run fast, run VERY fast! LOL!:) best of luck!!!

Just like Jen1214 I met my fiancé on craigslist. There are lots of weirdos out there, you just have to have the patience to believe that the right one will come and love yourself the same as you want others to love you.

I am a non typical stereo type! I was my husbands bar tender ( I was in college, he had revently graduated college) and who knew that we will be celebrating our 20th anniversary in July!!! More in love than ever. Just remember he could be anywhere , but I do have several friends who found their (2nd) spouses through match and eharmony! Good luck, your prince awaits you!

Match.com. Met and married my husband. We have been together almost eight years now! Best advice I can give is to go with gut instinct. If you meet them and it's not right, move on...plenty of fish in the sea!

I met my last two long term relationships online first was on Love@aol and the other was on black planet which was ironic because he ended up living in the apt complex across the street! As everyone said there are a lot of frogs wherever you look but I enjoy online because you can weed out crazies alot easier than in person ;) good luck on your search.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
