Essence's Paul Carrick Brunson is a matchmaker, but for singles ready to meet someone special, he has eight suggestions in addition to turning to a professional.
You can sit idle and wait for your prince to miraculously knock on your door or you can get active and start meeting more people, like now. Your call.

Throw A Plus One Party

Travel the World
I predict we’ll see more and more of these type of events over the years to come. Just google “single cruises and destination trips” and you’ll get 1,000s of possibilities
Get the Group Together
Expanding your social circle is the single best method to increase your chances of meeting a significant other.
