Dating In San Francisco - Where To Meet Men, Women

Dating in San Francisco can be brutal. Lots of people are over dating apps. Women complain about not being approached offline in the city. Men complain about women being unapproachable (surrounded by friends) or thinking that they will go viral (in a bad way) if they approach a woman offline.

It doesn’t have to be that way. There are lots of opportunities to meet people offline and in person in San Francisco without the use of apps, matchmakers, date-me-docs, speed dating, and singles events. But if you need help figuring out which to choose, let’s talk. I’ve been interviewed by Bumble, NYT, WSJ and more.

As a photographer and dating coach for men & women, I spend a lot of time navigating the city, looking for fun places to take photos, identifying great spots for first dates, and helping individuals expand their hobbies & interests, finding bars/restaurants to meet singles and identifying events for people to meet men and women.

Below are some of my recommendations to meet singles whether you are new in town and don’t know many people, are over 40, don’t drink/hate bars or are recently single.
