How To Make The Most Out Of Being Single In LA
Los Angeles can be a rewarding city to live in. There’s work in almost every industry, and glamour on every corner. But if you asked your average city resident if they thought it was a great place for dating, it’s unlikely they’d say yes. There are so many beautiful people, but they never seem to be single when you are, and the city is huge and impossible to get around without a car (unless you have a healthy uber rating). There’s nothing less romantic than planning a date around traffic.
But don’t worry. The Inner Circle is on hand to help. Although we can’t fix the public transport, or the 405 in literally either direction, we can share with you insider tips on how to get the best out of your time as a single in the City of Angels.
ACTIVITIES YOU NEED TO TRY
Go to a bar and actually talk to someone
So many people say how they’d much rather meet someone in real life than on a dating app, but few actually put in the work to make it happen. Unless you have a massive and constantly rotating social network, or work at an enormous company with relaxed rules around interpersonal relations, you’re going to have to put in some work to meet new people.
The best way is by being brave, going to a bar, and plucking up the courage to talk to a stranger. The Inner Circle makes it a bit easier by listing the top date spots in every city, and it updates when users share where they had a good time. Once you’ve set up a profile, you can even see which of your matches like the same bars as you!
Singles Events
They’ve gotten better over the years, honestly. Gone are the days of awkward speed dating in a big uncomfortable room, filled with awkward silences that you have to aggressively drink through. Dating events nowadays are curated affairs at the kind of venues you’ve always wanted to know how to get in, see when the next one in Los Angeles is by registering here and checking the events section.
Message. People. Back.
It’s super simple, and nothing will improve your success rate on dating apps more. If you match with someone, message them. And not just “Hi”, read their profile, comment on a picture, start a conversation. The Inner Circle makes it easier by providing in depth profiles and “Who’s Up For” updates that you can reply to, but honestly this one is down to you. If you think someone looks cute, you’ve just got to say something.
THE ONE TIP YOU WOULDN’T EXPECT
Dating apps are filled with features for a reason. If you download an app that’s just swiping, then you’re just going to swipe, it’s a game on your phone and it is what it is. But if you download a dating app, thoroughly check them out to see what they have to offer! The Inner Circle was built by dating industry experts, and each feature is there to make dating in a city like LA a little bit easier. From spots to go to, events to attend, and even ways to date or meet people when travelling, there’s a reason The Inner Circle isn’t in the Games section of the app store.
