Tired of meeting people from either dating apps or just completely walking up to a random stranger I find attractive. it just doesnt feel right for me. how do I spark something natural?

when you know let me know days I feel ready I try and it ends up backfiring I then miss my ex again
I used to just approach girls when I was fresh into the break up, trying to fill the void i was feeling but all it did was make me feel emptier, even when I was dating someone else but I think I just have to try new things and meet people through that
putting dating on the back burner for a bit and just saying yes to things i actually enjoyed. meeting people felt way less exhausting when romance wasn't the only goal.
THIS. Making organic connections is tough especially if you place expectations on it. Showing up for yourself is the best way to make connections with others. What I mean by that is go do things you enjoy for YOU and not with the hope of meeting someone new. You’ll have a great time & potentially meet someone naturally
are you hoping for a relationship right now, or are you mostly looking for a way to meet people that feels more natural?
both but really for something more natural
i deleted the apps after a while because every conversation started to feel forced. i ended up meeting someone through a hobby, and even though it didn't last, it reminded me that connections can still happen without chasing them.
yes
May be thru hobbies that you like. Outdoor activities. I agree with friends to lovers
i’ve always been a friends to lovers person. before a romantic one, build a friendship
I do want new friends but idk how and where to go make any? I live in San antonio and there's like nothing here
@MooDrip maybe try a new hobby like a random workout class or art class or join a book club, or ask friends to make a big meetup with other people so u can meet friends of friends, also san antonio is pretty big! plenty of things to do!
