Get a dog (or better yet, a puppy) and take it for walks. You'll meet a ton of people around the neighborhood. If you take the dog to a dog park, or any open-air market, you'll have chicks all over you. Or at least your dog. Gets your foot in the door though.

Dude if you don't eat meat at all (which for me automatically puts you in the group of vegetarians or vegans that are going to lecture me while I eat my rare steak), drink at all or seem to do anything fun. Why would anyone want to hang out with you? I mean think about it honestly.

If your a fun outgoing person looking for a good time (especially a girl) would you want to hang out with you?

Go start doing things that normal young adults do. You don't have to go to a bar or club every week, but do it occasionally. Just like drinking. Having a beer socially isn't going to kill you.

Scenario: What happens when this hot girl you met at a social event invites you over for a BBQ at her friends place. You get there and they are cooking burgers and having some beers. Are you going to just stand in the corner being the odd one out?

If you said yes start looking for love on the I don't eat meat or drink forums. Im sure there are lovely ladies that will sit next to you on the porch holding your hand until your old and gray with your 63 cats and a freshly mowed lawn.

Worst advice ever. If someone won't hang out with you because you don't drink or eat meat then they're probably an alcoholic or at least mentally handicapped to some capacity.

Be who you are, if you have to compromise yourself to meet people then they aren't worth meeting. Alcohol and meat aren't bad and if you haven't you should try them, it does make things easier but its not impossible without those things. If you're someone who doesn't eat meat and tells everyone else they shouldn't then don't be so close minded and stupid. I've been to plenty of parties where everyone was drinking and I didn't drink, just tell people you don't like it and keep talking about whatever. Be outgoing and have confidence are the only things you need to meet people/women.

None, just telling him how the real world works.

What that you have to eat meat and/or drink to meet new people? I have a friend who doesn't drink and travels all over the world by herself and meets tons of people along the way. The fact that she doesn't drink never prevents her from meeting people or having a good time. All it takes is going up to people and saying hello and going from there.

I just drive around and when I see a hot girl next to me I stand up in my seat (top down of course) whip "it" out and shake it at her. Sometimes you have to give an enticing look along with it, but they usually go for it.
I somehow knew this was you even before I saw txchopper5, as I read it I thought this is something you would say

Could be worse. You could be old and gray AND DEAD all alone with your 63 cats who will eventually feed on your dead body...which will be discovered 6 month later by your neighbor who couldn't stand the stench coming out of your house any longer!!
