If you’re a single guy, there is a very small chance that a smart, beautiful, and single girl will just fall into your lap. You have to get yourself out there and be proactive about bringing new women into your life. The good news is you can do this without going to a noisy club or bar. Here are three highly effective ways to meet more women.

1. Take On A New Part Time Job
Taking on a part time job can be a great way to meet new women while making a little extra income on the side. Here are three part time jobs where you’ll meet the most women.

Trendy Clothing Retailer
Trendy clothing retailers are great places to meet women. If you work at one of these places, you’ll routinely interact with beautiful women everyday. When choosing a trendy clothing retailer to work at, find a place that suits your personality and the type of girl you’re looking for. A little bonus you can get from working at a trendy clothing retailer is the discount on clothing you get as an employee. This can help you improve your wardrobe while meeting new women, which is a double benefit for you. If you’re having trouble finding stores that sell both men’s and women’s clothing, check out The Gap, American Eagle, Rag Stock, Buckle, Zumiez, Banana Republic, Old Navy, Abercrombie and Fitch, American Apparel, Urban Outfitters, Aeropostale, Express, Pacsun, and Martin + Osa.

Coffee Shop
Coffee Shops are just crawling with young women looking to get a caffeine buzz or to study. If you work at a coffee shop, you’ll definitely have the chance to meet a ton of women. To increase the number of women you meet, you should try to work at a larger chain coffee shop in a densely populated area if possible.

Lifeguard
Girls flock to beaches and pools during the summertime and usually just sit around and tan. If you can be friendly and social on breaks and in between shifts, you can easily make small talk which can lead to numbers and dates. A benefit of being a lifeguard is that you’ll be able to have an excuse to go to the beach or pool alone everyday without looking like some creepy guy who just goes to look at all the pretty girls.

2. Volunteer
Volunteering is a bit different than getting a part time job because the women you’ll meet are likely the ones you’ll be working with, not the ones you’re serving. This means you’ll be meeting less women, but you will be able to build stronger bonds with the women you meet.

Charity Race Helping out in a charity race can be a great way to meet new women and help support a good cause. One benefit of volunteering at one of these events is that they are usually short term which will make it easier for you to find something else if things don’t work out. You can also get in shape by finding charity races to participate in while you’re looking for ones to volunteer for.

Meal Server This is another volunteer opportunity that doesn’t require any long term commitments. As a meal server you’ll work with a team of volunteers to serve meals to the less fortunate. You’ll be able to meet everyone on the team and possibly get a few date leads out of it.

Working With Kids
One of the best ways to meet new women is to find a volunteer opportunity that involves working with kids. Not all girls like kids or enjoy being around them, but those that do have no problem volunteering for them. Plus, the types of girls that have the time to work with kids are usually single themselves. And because kids are so young, innocent, and carefree, working with them will help give you some perspective on life.

3. Take A Class
Taking a class can be very similar to volunteering because you’ll be meeting less women but can build stronger bonds with the ones you meet. There is a great variety of classes you can take that can teach you things that can benefit you even more than meeting a new girl. Here are some suggestions for classes where you’ll meet the most women.

Dance
Taking a dance class is great because it’s a very physical activity and many dance styles encourage interaction with other students. Plus, if you’re someone with two left feet, taking a dance class is definitely a good way to improve your dancing skills for the next time you need to show off your moves. Dancing is great for attracting the attention of women and to show them you’re confident. If you can dance well, you’re definitely better off than guys who can’t.

Cooking
Cooking classes usually have a good mix of men and women who are looking to grow their passion for food or to learn something new. Taking a cooking class is great because you can learn to cook for yourself and cut down on how much you eat out. If you can cook, you can also bring girls back to your place and impress them with a fancy meal for two. These are just bonus benefits of taking a cooking class, with the main benefit being meeting new women in the classes themselves.

Art Or Photography
Taking an art or photography class is a great way to work on your creative expression and meet new women. Taking an art or photography class is an especially good fit if you’re into the type of girl who is more cultured and in touch with her creative side. An added benefit of taking and art or photography class is you’ll produce something you can hang on one of your walls and use as a conversation piece.

Workout/Aerobic
Workout and aerobic classes are a goldmine for beautiful girls. As long as you’re comfortable with grooving your body with the music, you’ll fit right in. Some added benefits of taking a workout or aerobic class is that you’ll get into much better shape and will be forced to stick to a workout schedule. These classes are also filled with girls sweating and bouncing around in sports bras which is well worth the price of admission alone (just don’t be too creepy about it).
