... but I gotta tell someone. I am a disaster with women. I was horrible in high school and bad in college. I was assured by my father and others that law school would make me so much more attractive to the ladies. "Hey, check out my earning potential." I was skeptical but more than willing to be proven wrong.
I was not wrong. I remain a failure despite my new "earning potential."
I've dated in law school but each time after a week I've known that it wasn't going to last. I'm ok with being single in law school. I just worry sometimes that if I don't find someone in law school I will be pathetic and alone the rest of my life. I have no idea how to meet people outside of school.
I can't do the whole bar scene. What kind of story would that be for my kids? Yeah I met your mom at a bar one night. I much prefer my parents story of "You dad asked me for the answer to a question on our history test." Cheating in history class, a match made in heaven.
I can't cheat in law school, so I how am I supposed to meet anyone?

I would offer you some good advice, but look where I am. I met both my husbands in bars;-)
I was single through most of law school, but ended up dating a fellow law schooler post-law school. Could happen!
Friends introduce you to people. Try it. That's how I met Hat. And I'm a terrible dater myself--I feel your pain. I constantly got dumped or hit on by creepy guys. I'm not good at first-date small talk and I make new situations even more uncomfortable because I'm crushingly shy around people I don't know. But, then one day, my friend/roommate brought Hath home after work to help her paint her room (we'd just moved into our house) and then we ended up dating. Bars suck, law school is a rough place to meet someone (because we're all too busy crying and studying). Try meeting friends of friends.
Oh man, you gotta meet someone somewhere.
I guess a party, through mutual friends is the best place to meet.
Then (in cascading order):
At church (if that's your thing).
While playing in on a recreational sports team.
At work.
At a concert.
At a supermarket (do people meet there?).
At a coffee shop.
At a bar.
At a singles mixer.
Online.
As cheesy as it sounds, dating services are pretty decent. A buddy of mine has met a lot of nice girls that way.
