This may sound strange but I was hoping to find some suggestions from people who have had success. It’s been suggested to me that I (a guy) approach strangers I think seem attractive as a way to meet to people and find the person I’m looking for. The idea of this makes me feel stressed but given that I’m in my mid 20s and haven’t had a date in over 2 years, I feel like I might need to try it.

So..
What do I say? How do I say it? How do I make it feel less awkward?

Guys, what has been successful for you?

Gals, would you be okay having a stranger approach you in a store and ask you out? If so, how would you want them to do that?

I appreciate all of your help.

I have a strong desire to find a girlfriend and start the next big chapter of my life. Despite looking im having a hard time finding single Christian to possibly have a connection with. I am in my mid 20s. I’ve tried church and even visiting some other local churches without much luck of finding many that even fit the broad category of female, Christian, single.

Where else can I look? What should I do?
