It was hard for me to meet good women when I moved to Vancouver over 5 years ago. I didn't have any family or friends here so I was literally starting from scratch. I've had the most success meeting women from Match.com to be honest. My last 3 relationships which all lasted 1-2 years came from meeting someone there. Honestly, it did grow frustrating at times as I'm a very career driven person and have little time, patience or energy to go out in search of meeting a woman of substance in the plethora of trash out there when it gets dark. There were certainly gaps where match seemed like a waste of time but I've had the most success meeting good women who encompass old school values and have their shit together. As far as online recommendations take some time to think about what you write...it's way more important than you think. Women respond to authenticity and you'd be surprised how many (real women) don't give a fuck about money. Class, intellect, manners and confidence have nothing to do with money and if you make a woman laugh, smile and feel sexy she'll justify many other shortcomings that you as a person may feel insecure about.

After that I'd say your next best bet is to hang out with more of your friends who are in relationships and generally heading in the same direction as you in life. Even though it grows frustrating hang out with couples as the only one single, you'll increase the chances of meeting another single woman who tags along with her girlfriend as everyone goes out to celebrate the arbitrary birthday, anniversary, house warming et al.

Surround yourself with like minded people and you'll have a better chance at meeting that one. Life isn't always fair and you just have to deal with it: meaning there' no guarantee...so don't get frustrated. I've found it best to focus on your life and what makes you happy and keeps you balanced. The happier and more confident (not read as cocky) you are the more it will rub off on others and people will naturally gravitate toward you. You be you, and really give that some thought. Be honest with yourself as well, what are you shortcomings if you're being real and how can you improve them? The rest will fall into place with time.
