Well, I'm married so it worked at some point. I'm involved with my community and the community is your dating pool. The other guy is right in a sense, it's mainly coupled people you meet at events but the more people you meet the more people meet you. You have to make friends before you make lovers. My wife and I have absolutely tried setting up people we've met with people we know. My personal opinion is that people who "never meet anyone" are probably assholes and people steer clear of them.
