Singles Dating Help: Meeting Your Neighborhood Residents at Your Polling Place

I find that when I lived in San Francisco and would vote at my local polling place in my hood that I would half run into other residents of the SF Neighborhood where I lived.  Invariably other local residents would go to their polling place either right after or just before heading over with MUNI buses.  So you can just in a very casual way without politicking meet others in your neighborhood.

If you vote just before work, you will likely see others walking over to the MUNI bus shelter to wait for their bus to work.  If you choose to cast your vote instead after work hours, then you’ll probably walk over from the MUNI stop to your polling place with others in your neighborhood.  You can just really casually pipe and say, “Hey, I’m bushed after work.  I’m planning on heading over to Unwind over on Union Street to grab a drink now that I’ve vote.  Would you like to join me?  I’ll buy the first round.”  Very easy and so low key.

Singles Dating Help: Conversation Starters After Voting at Your Polling Place

Just pray they are of the same political party that you are!  However, even if they are not, you can practice being a diplomat and simply inquire about their interests.  You can always softly hide behind not revealing too much by uttering a universally connecting comment such as, “I’ll sure be glad to stop receiving all of those Vote YES or Vote NO political flyers that have been filling my mail box this last week, won’t you?  Now I can get back to my main interests of….  [insert a few hobbies].  How about you?”

Now even if the person you’re talking to isn’t single, you’ll be expanding your social circle of those people you know who live in your neighborhood.  A study of people we wed, turns out many couples marry someone who lives within 4 miles from them.  So expanding your micro-local social connections can serve you well.  You never know who they know in their social circle.
