sorry but it appears you both have describe each and every small / large / rich or poor town across the land,, the world for that matter.  I just did not understand how going to college changes these known statistics.

I just found it to be an odd worded description of who is better than whom based on an assumed education and location.

Ask friends to help you find someone...but make sure they know what type of person you are looking for and that the friend is someone your trust.
Most of the time, you will know someone who will know someone.....

Friends that know friends, usually is a good fix up.

I played in a rock band from the time I was 16 to about 27.
The bar scene found me a lot of women when we played out, but I would never want to stay with anyone that I ever picked up playing out.
My singer called me up one night and asked me if I wanted to double with him and his girlfriend, she had a friend that was divorced and had 2 kids. So I said sure, there's nothing wrong with meeting someone new.
Long story short. We're been together 15 years.
The moral is...
You never know who your going to fall in love with, until it happens. And I'm sure somewhere along the way, we probably ran into each other in a bar at one time.
And when I picked her up she said "nice car'
It was my cougar, almost new at the time.

So...  without browsing personal ads and without picking up the random in the bar, how does one go about meeting someone who is worthwhile?
That is the answer I would like to know as well.
Actually like everyone else said, friends are the best way to get with someone. Believe it or not, my aunt helped me meet my most recent lady friend but that didn't last long. It was that I'm 23 and she was 24 which didn't sit well with her for some reason. Then I found out that she was married then divorced and still seeing her ex on occasion. That was way too much baggage for me so I dropped her like a hot coffee. Right now, none of my friends know anyone they would like to hook me up with and I haven't met anyone who's single on my own so I'm not with anyone.

Wait until you're 38 like me. EVERYONE has kids. Actually, I think I might be more inclined toward someone who already has kids (and doesn't want more) than someone who doesn't yet. I'll know after some dates, I suppose.

I've just started giving eHarmony a try. In case anyone else wants to try it, I suppose I can give a "newbie's eye report". It looks like it might be effective, but for someone shy like me it's HUGELY intimidating! They don't just match you -- depending on you're settings, you get matched with up to eight people a day, every day (from the forums, it looks like it's churning through everyone currently in the system who matches with you). Then it's supposed to peter out, but I haven't gotten there yet.

I only wanted to dip a single toe in, as dating is really new to me (I'm serious), but it's difficult when three women have initiated communication in the space of three days or so. I don't think my skittishness meter could go any higher -- the sucker's pegged! One piece of advice: IMMEDIATELY after your first batch of matches, turn matching OFF. The only speeds it runs at are ignition off and WOT, so throttle it yourself. Otherwise you won't know which way is up.
