‘I’m Cooked’ (Where to Find Dates After College)

by Alex

with Single Player Brandon

🏫 How do you find dates after you’re done with college?  🕰️ For many people, high school and uni gave us the perfect place to meet people. But once that’s over, what do you do? How can you meet someone to date if you’re not meeting… well, basically anyone? 🤷

📜 After graduating, Brandon went from having built-in social circles to basically meeting nobody new. His dating life? Non-existent. His social life? Hanging out with the same small group of friends 2-3 times a year. His solution attempts? Cold approaches (didn’t work) and dating apps (traumatizing) 😰

🏢 “I’m stuck in the office for most of the time,” Brandon explains. Between his 9-to-5 and studying for nursing boards, he’s caught in the classic post-college trap: knowing he wants to meet someone but having zero clue where to start and feeling like he has no time to do it.

🎯 But here’s the thing: Brandon actually HAS opportunities. He goes to Riot Games Arena to watch esports matches, he’s into skateboarding, snowboarding, and wants to learn surfing. He just hasn’t connected the dots on how these hobbies can become his social networking goldmine.

🥘 If you’re feeling “cooked” because college social life seems like a distant memory, this episode breaks down exactly how to transform solo activities into friend-making (and potentially date-finding) opportunities 💘
