Bars/Pubs. The booze helps lubricate those social wheels. Or friends of friends being introduced to each other.

But honestly anywhere could be a place to meet someone if you're not a creep about it and don't try to force it.

Kinda sucks when you don't drink though. Best advice I've heard was to take up a social hobby, but I haven't a clue what that would be either.

Like you said, find an excuse to leave your house I guess.

The problem with that is that I have zero tolerance for stupidity and superstition, so I'd have a lousy time in most conversations or initial dates.

"What sign are you?"

"Check!"

...

"What church do you go to?"

"Check!"
