I'd go to the mall. There's a guy there selling pastries who...
School, work, gym, charity work, professional networking events, etc.
Seriously?
My advice is to find a hobby that you enjoy doing and then finding a group that fits that hobby. You'll meet all kinds of people that share a common interest. Look at finding friends and having that possibly lead to a deeper relationship.
Sure, I like pastries, but i barely get them due my diets and that sugar killer! If it be less damage cookie! I'll be happier!
