I keep seeing bad advice about best way to meet and date in a new city, so here is the version that held up. Whether it leads anywhere is what separates a good week from a wasted one with way meet. Whether it actually works is what separates a good week from a wasted one with way meet.
My experience with way meet shifted completely once I paid attention to whether your area is covered.
What I actually do about way meet:
- widen your filters past what feels comfortable specifically for way meet
- plan for a couple of weekends before deciding anything about way meet
- keep one clear, current photo of your face when it comes to way meet
- budget at least a week before deciding anything about way meet
You cannot really talk about way meet without talking about whether there's anyone nearby. Once I stopped worrying about what people get out of it, way meet got a lot simpler. I judge way meet almost entirely on how often it goes somewhere now.
Your mileage on best way to meet and date in a new city will vary, but that's the pattern I saw.
A friend pointed me at Datescout for this when I asked about way meet and it held up.
