Be the wind beneath your own damn wings

Question: A bunch of my college friends are married now, my work friends are busy, and my one remaining good single college buddy is hopeless as a wingman. How is a nice guy supposed to meet the ladies all by himself?

Answer:

Oh my little would-be Romeo, fear not. Hark, what light through yonder suck-it-up-wussy window breaks? It is you at the bar by yourself, and it's going just fine. There is nothing wrong with going out by yourself. You might meet a girl in the same situation. Look for the really sad, vulnerable-looking ones, and buy them a drink. Listen to their sad, sad stories. Or start the night with your hapless single friend so you look like a fun guy who can sustain a platonic relationship with another man, and then send him packing when you've caught the eye of your Juliet of the night.
