One of the biggest obstacles that so many women have toward meeting more single men and eventually meeting Mr. Right or at least finding that great, fulfilling, long-term relationships is painfully simple - they severely restrict the times and the places where they are willing and ready to meet single guys. This leaves the majority of quality single men out of those women's reach!  

I can't help but wonder about my single female friends who say that they do not want to look at guys when we are out because they are not out to meet guys. This sounds ... silly at best, but it's such a common frame of mind for women to believe that they should only meet a guy when they are out with the sole pupose of meeting one. Indeed, a typical woman is only ready to meet a guy and flirt during those few evening hours on weekends when she is dressed up, feeling attractive, and ready for romance. The rest of the time that same woman will make herself intentionally or unconciously unavailable, which includes avoiding any eye contact with the men around her and otherwise carrying herself in such a manner that would not invite male attention throughout the day. But time after time, these weekend outings end up in gross disappointments from the atmosphere and the kind of guys that these women are seeing.

Indeed, life doesn’t work like that. A great single guy is not going to come to you when you are ready to meet him and when you feel like talking to and meeting men. That great guy is going to be around you in the most unexpected time and place - probably during the daytime, at a grocery store, gas station, bus stop or anywhere else where you find yourself in your day-to-day activities but don't expect to meet men. Although a bit trite, it is an undeniable fact that the guy you are looking to meet can be anywhere at this very moment.

Surely I wouldn’t suggest that you should go out searching for him with a flashlight, but you can certainly make one adjustment to your behavior that is likely to dramatically increase your chances of meeting a great guy: make yourself friendly, available and open to meeting guys at all times! This means making a friendly eye contact with the men around you regardless of where you are, and being open to having a small talk in all casual situations where you interact with men. In other words, take advantage of the opportunities to interact with men that your life is already creating for you and don't wait to go out to some cheesy bar or a club where you are likely going to judge guys for their drinking habits and vanity anyway. After all, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain from talking to men in natural, daily social situations. If nothing else, a conversation with a guy will be a great exercise of your social skills and will be an interesting experience, and you never know - you might just make a friend who will introduce you to another guy for whom you will fall head over heels.

There are more quality men out there than you think, but most of them need an invitation from you in order to come up and meet you. If you start giving those men a subtle but clear signal of your friendly energy and your openness to meeting them, the quality and the quantity of men you are meeting will dramatically increase. Try it and you will see for yourself!
