What are some good ways for a recent college grad to meet women?

Question:

I've recently graduated from college and found a job, but I don't have much (read: no) experience with women. I have already discovered that approaching women I don't know and asking them out point blank doesn't work so well. Online dating sites don't have much for people in the 20-25 age range. I've used MySpace and Facebook instead as ways to meet people (especially women), but people on those sites must be stuck up not to respond.

I should mention as a complicating factor, I am mildly autistic and tend to be pretty oblivious in social situations (although I am a very kind person).

What's the best approach for a guy in circumstances like these?

Answer:
If you're in the top 10% looks-wise, you can get away with just approaching girls and asking them out. If you're like the rest of us regular Joes, that usually has a low success rate.

First, you've got to be "meetable"; hanging out in your apartment isn't going to do the trick.

Second, it helps where you can meet girls on a repetitive basis, where they can get to know you a bit before you try to arrange a date. This works better if you're a nice guy... which seems like might be the case.

So look for places that meet both these criteria; you'll have a chance to do something interesting and spend some repetitive time with young ladies. Special-interest groups can be good: chess clubs, poetry groups, volunteer organizations, martial arts classes, rec centers, etc. etc.

Also, if you try too hard for a romantic connection, especially early, that can work against you. Spend some time building up friendships first and see where things go from there.

Good luck!
