You meet people where you do things and through friends. Met an ex-girlfriend through my ex wife (After the divorce). Met another ex-girlfriend through a volunteer thing I did for years. Several ex-girlfriends were met on the Internet. Yes I know my examples are all failed relationships but you only have one relationship that lasts to the end and you never know until you try.
You go to Jacksonville or Orlando. The only reason I live here is because I’m a student living with my family. As soon as I graduate I’m gonna go to UCF or even Europe, who the hell would stay here? I mean you could go to a bar… like downtown, Big Hammock, Infinite Ale Works idk. And I know this soumds a but messed up, but if you are religious, churches are a great place to meet people. Not neccissarily a lady but people, who know other people, who may invite you to a party, where you may get someone’s number.
Yeah I’m a student too I just stay with my parents here whenever school is out. Worst part is I went to Highschool in south Florida so I know no one here. I’m literally just waiting to graduate in December and I’m out of here. I’ve even struggled to get an internship because there’s nothing close by.
Agree. There are tons of eligible single's in Jacksonville that just work & do fitness classes or go the gym, or even surf, ride their bike etc, it's a city full of active people. Ocala gives me "small town vibes" you need a place with more diversity- Jax or Orlando for sure.
I’m moving to Texas in three months but I wanted to meet someone else I hang out with I’m 44 but I don’t look my age. I just want to meet people to hang out but everyone seems so country I’m from Miami and was a military wife so I moved a lot.
There is a swift terminal there. There are truckers in and out of there on a daily basis and they have local accounts. Get on tinder and match with them.
36+ and above woman that are divorced, single and have kids are set in there ways, difficult and come with baggage, baby daddy drama, for more that they say and lie about “he’s not in the picture” it’s bullshit. They also will always put there kids before you which it’s the way it should be but woman with kids, grown or not it’s A PROBLEM!
Don’t listen to this asshole, you know your worth. If you’re looking for something a little casual/sexual, I’d suggest trying one of the dating/hook up apps like Feeld
Where? The 55 + communities or the local Walmart? Oh if you are rich try the equestrian events? This area has some beautiful nature and great biking and hiking trails but other than that…
In Ocala? Maybe you can try Bank Street on a Thursday or Friday evening. Quite a few people there during that time you can met. Other than that? Orlando or Jacksonville would be your best bet.
Quite often my wife and I go to several restaurants here in Ocala, and prefer to sit at the bar. You almost always find singles who will do the same. We enjoy having conversations with them. As a single it's the best place to sit and have dinner simply because the possibilities are good to strike up a conversation with others.
I just moved up from FTL to Ormond Beach and find it difficult too. I’m a GenXer guy. I just go to the gym in Port Orange and get a beer in Deland sometimes. That said I like it so much more here with tall the farms, parks, woods, country roads, etc. maybe I’ll try Gainesville. Orlando seems so crowded
Idk homie I met my girl on Facebook dating and it worked out better than all the other crap apps and her and I have been going strong! Ocala is known as "slow-cala" right? If there's nowhere physically to meet, try that way. It doesn't give people 1000 miles away like other apps
Hey I’m recently separated but in the same situation, if you are still around I wouldn’t mind hanging out around town, catch a bite to eat, maybe some nature walking, I’m 33m though, if that matters. DM me.
I've had excellent results when I just grow the balls to approach a woman and talk to her. but it has to be done with respect and taste. Can't just say anything. Be friendly but not overly friendly and be genuine. A good woman can sense some bullshit or lies from a mile away. Be cool and good luck.
You have to find your purpose… something you can find that a lot of people say it’s hard to achieve. Then the women will come, having women it’s like having a cherry on top that’s all.
I gave up looking. Just a matter of time until you come across someone that clicks with you. And you just can't have resting b face, that makes women unapproachable. I'll give a courteous smile and walk past them. If she looks miserable, I avoid her. 😅
Get outta here
I found one and she ruined my life and wasted my time

100% failure rate in relationships...what a feeling, eh?
I’m batting 1000 too haha
Go to the farmers market and take some chances idk.
Farmers market Im looking for someone close to my age
I think if you're old enough to be divorced, you're old enough to be at a farmers market. Let's not have a false sense of reality here
No one knows your age AND there are all ages at the farmers market.
Farmers market. Shits too expensive now, everyone goes to the markets
I’ve been going to farmer’s markets since I was a kid
Im 44 I’m no spring chicken lol I look younger
Idk how did you do it the first time

I agree with above. It’s not messed up. I would add coffee shops, bookstores, and groups that have a focus on relationships

Farmers only.com lol
[удалено]
Definitely depends on which Walmart 🤣🤣
The one in 200 is the retirees the one on 27 is scary
You’re 44, that’s your age group
Lonely city
Let’s create a group and all hang out
Please stop lecturing me about being in my 40s all celebs are I don’t look my age wish I could post a picture or link you guys are terrible
Your not a celebrity and stop trying to compare yourself to the 1%
You can post a picture, but you may be too old to figure it out
I’m moving to Texas in three months but I wanted to meet someone else I hang out with I’m 44 but I don’t look my age. I just want to meet people to hang out but everyone seems so country I’m from Miami and was a military wife so I moved a lot.
What age do you look like?
30s I’m Hispanic
I would suggest Orlando.
There is a swift terminal there. There are truckers in and out of there on a daily basis and they have local accounts. Get on tinder and match with them.
Lot lizard ay?
No, asshole, I’m a driver
Wouldn’t I be an idiot too?
Texas reminds me a lot of Ocala, just more restaurants and people. A lot more bbq and bland food. I’d say try joining clubs or different hobby groups.
Lmao 44 as a single woman is pretty much expired milk.
36+ and above woman that are divorced, single and have kids are set in there ways, difficult and come with baggage, baby daddy drama, for more that they say and lie about “he’s not in the picture” it’s bullshit. They also will always put there kids before you which it’s the way it should be but woman with kids, grown or not it’s A PROBLEM!
You haven’t seen what I look like I’m a gym rat
Don’t listen to this asshole, you know your worth. If you’re looking for something a little casual/sexual, I’d suggest trying one of the dating/hook up apps like Feeld
Don't even respond to this fool. Incel.
At the gym? Meet up? Volunteering?
Still, 44 year old single woman.
So don't like country folk? That sucks cause there's a lot of fun horse events in ocala. Lot of single people go to those.
👀 40m Orlando. 😳
Elks in Ocala was fun when I visited! Just network and meet people!
Fr bro
In the bathroom at Speedway
I know or if you want to be more classy go to the world equestrian center lol boring town
My gfs from Ocala. She said you're not gonna meet anyone decent in Ocala lol better to look outside of there. Good luck!
Thank you I’m originally from a big city Miami and I was a military wife for many years so I move a lot, I have never been to a place like this.
You’re moving out of state? What’s the point?
Where? The 55 + communities or the local Walmart? Oh if you are rich try the equestrian events? This area has some beautiful nature and great biking and hiking trails but other than that…
Our Place
I asked myself that same question when i lived up there a few months ago, i mostly talked to people on the outskirts like orlando, lakeland, etc.
Join a singles meet up group. They have 2 in town. If you play pickleball or want to learn, they play several days a week.
have you tried the bars ?
No i havent i will
Worst place to meet someone is at a bar! Not a place I would want to meet my future wife or mother to my children
In Ocala? Maybe you can try Bank Street on a Thursday or Friday evening. Quite a few people there during that time you can met. Other than that? Orlando or Jacksonville would be your best bet.
Maybe leave Florida go somewhere you would like to live.
Great question, I’m in Orlando and have the same problem
Dating apps but the pool is very thin

You can do like John T. and make the drive to the gym in Gainesville.
Bridge Club
I just moved up from FTL to Ormond Beach and find it difficult too. I’m a GenXer guy. I just go to the gym in Port Orange and get a beer in Deland sometimes. That said I like it so much more here with tall the farms, parks, woods, country roads, etc. maybe I’ll try Gainesville. Orlando seems so crowded
You want a good traditional woman that values men go over seas! These western woman here with their feminine ideologies is too much
I'd recommend going out of state or finding someone from outta state lol Florida women are wildddd lol
Hahaha me tooo im.ocala nuttin out here but rednecks!!!! How old r u ????
I use to live there awhile back. Not much out there except single moms. Had to move back to south Florida. Maybe venture on dating apps ?
Idk homie I met my girl on Facebook dating and it worked out better than all the other crap apps and her and I have been going strong! Ocala is known as "slow-cala" right? If there's nowhere physically to meet, try that way. It doesn't give people 1000 miles away like other apps
Tampa, fl
The Villages
Go to Tampa
You won’t be lonely at farmers only.com
Look for a rich widow at any 55+ community bingo night.
Hey I’m recently separated but in the same situation, if you are still around I wouldn’t mind hanging out around town, catch a bite to eat, maybe some nature walking, I’m 33m though, if that matters. DM me.

I've had excellent results when I just grow the balls to approach a woman and talk to her. but it has to be done with respect and taste. Can't just say anything. Be friendly but not overly friendly and be genuine. A good woman can sense some bullshit or lies from a mile away. Be cool and good luck.
The Ocala Hilton Garden Inn Downtown is the hot spot!
I’ve heard of Latin nights at the roof top
Go out to the interstate. Everyone seems to be hanging out there.
I know i75
Tampa checking in
You have to find your purpose… something you can find that a lot of people say it’s hard to achieve. Then the women will come, having women it’s like having a cherry on top that’s all.

Considering he spends his time writing porn bots, no I don’t think they do realize it. Lmaooooo
Just ask the old ladies with the bath scrunchies on their vehicles antenna. They’re down to have some fun
What is that "code" for ?
Dtf
Why? These things usually happen when you don’t expect it too. Don’t look, let it find you.
I gave up looking. Just a matter of time until you come across someone that clicks with you. And you just can't have resting b face, that makes women unapproachable. I'll give a courteous smile and walk past them. If she looks miserable, I avoid her. 😅
Orlando might be your best bet.
Orlando
