If I were single I would pursue activities of interest (work and sports and hobbies) and in the course of that would probably meet some people. Starting from a common base is helpful. I would probably be least interested in blind dates and other kinds of venues that were random (bars, clubs, etc.). I would definitely try online dating, as that would allow me to do some filtering for some vary basic things (like can they string a sentence together). I personally think ward scenes can be difficult, but maybe that's just me.
