Yea...but when I was a youngster I dated a weightlifter gal and when she had a temper I had to flee the house!

Take dance lessons. If nothing else, you'll have women lining up to dance with you, whether you have two left feet or not. They're always looking for guys to dance with.
I should also add that I "half" met my fiance on Yahoo personals. We went to the same church and school (she graduated 3 years behind me, 1 year ahead of my sister), and being a small school and all that, we knew OF each other. I picked on her/flirted with her when I saw her at work at the hardware store, but never thought much of it. Almost 4 years ago, she had her mom give my dad her cell phone number to give to me. I didn't do much with it as I was seeing someone at the time. About 6 months later, that situation ended, and a month after that, I was searching Yahoo personals (they actually used to be free about 10 years ago, met another g/f there as well), and my fiance popped up. I figured it was a sign, and I messaged her, we got numbers, and the rest is, as they say, history.

I will say that I've had two brothers go through eHarmony and they have both married one of them that they were matched up to. One now has two kids.
At least, that's what they told me. They could have been on a date with a eHarmony chick and dropped her at the bar, stayed there, and went home with someone else.....

Skip the online thing...too easy for people to hide behind their profile and many people on those services serial date...dumping you when someone "greener" comes along. Long-term relationships take lots of work and effort so you need someone that has a genuine level of commitment and honesty. A great relationship is not 50-50 but 100-100.
Here is an clipping from an old article with regards to meeting someone special or least being open to new possibilities in a healthy sort of way.

-------
Outdoor Activities
Interested in the nature-lovin outdoorsy type? Explore nature and meeet a woman through hiking, whitewater rafting , bicycling, mountain climbing or caving.
Volunteer
Organizations like Greenpeace, Sierra Club, United Way and others are great places to meet a woman, as well as give meaning and purpose to your life. Some programs require volunteers to go house to house for donations; an opportunity to meet more women.
Colleges
Colleges are swarming with students, graduate students and professors. So attend a lecture, learn about campus activities, or just take a stroll across campus to meet a woman.
Happy Hour
Great opportunity to connect with businesspeople on a social basis. Instead of heading to the same bar for happy hour every Friday night, check out bars in other locations as an opportunity to meet a whole new set of women.
Fashion Shows
This is a great place to meet a woman. Check out events in your local paper for fashion show events. Make a unique Mother’s Day or birthday gift to your mom, and take her to the show. You’ll attract a woman just by the great energy you give off being such a great son.
Libraries and Bookstores
You can just head to the bookstore to browse for a book or have a cup of coffee. Check out the schedule of activities for book signings, speakers, single nights, etc.
Bank
Skip the drive-through and head inside during busy lunch hour preferably in a large business district. Whether waiting in line or making a transaction, take time to notice, interact and meet a woman.
Professional Associations
Attend get-togethers related to your profession or join other associations (e.g. Toastmasters).
On the Job
If you work at a large office building, keep your eyes open. Check out Office Romance for more information on how to meet a woman.
Health Clubs
Drag your treadmill back out to the garage, and join a gym.
Beach
Take a walk on the beach, and stop at a poolside bar for a drink.
Museums and Art Galleries
Going to a museum or art gallery may or may not be new to you. But it's sure to be an interesting experience whether you meet anyone or not. If you are unfamiliar with the exhibits, you can casually make comments or ask questions when you and a woman are observing the same art-work.
Politics
Hit the campaign trail as a great way to meet a woman. Learn about the candidates and the issues and get involved.
Zoo
Be outside, get some exercise and enjoy the fun. Watching other species, by observing their behavior can give us new insight into ourselves.
Seminars
Sign up for a seminar such as financial planning, self improvement, or topics about women’s issues. You are sure to meet a woman at any of these type of events.
Mall
Swarming with women. Best chance of meeting a woman is by asking advice from the sales women, or striking up conversation in line at the food court. Many women come to the mall alone and eat alone. So once it hits lunch hour, head to the food court.
Newspaper
Check out local events, such as cultural events, Octoberfest, street fairs etc. Then head out into your community.
Alumnae Shindigs
You already have something in common with these people. So don't throw the newsletter in the trash this time.
Church, Kabballah Center
The people are friendly and you can count on activities for singles. If you attend one church and don’t come away with that warm and fuzzy feeling, keep trying.
Take an Adult Education Class
Greater proportion of women can be found at gourmet cookery, foreign language instruction, literature, creative writing, music and fine arts, philosophy, sewing, embroidery, weaving, pottery , medical technology and nutrition, new age, spirituality (astrology, tarot, I Ching) and photography.
Local Single Groups or Social clubs
Includes activities for everyone, like volleyball on the beach, club sponsored get togethers at bars / ball games.
Local Arts and Crafts Supply Store
This is probably 99% women so you will definitely get noticed. Don’t worry, there are things for men to shop for too (picture frames, plants,etc). So you won’t feel completely out of place.
Grocery Store
Don’t be afraid to ask a fellow attractive shopper a question...
"Could you reach that can of corn on the top shelf for me please?" – is sure to get a smile.
Asking more imaginative questions will keep her wondering whether you are really hitting on her or not. Try asking her for cooking advice. When you are in dairy, ask if it matters if you use heavy cream vs whipping cream in your recipe (or stewed tomatoes vs canned tomatoes in the canned good aisle, etc.)
Close to Home
If neighbors, friends, friends of friends want to set you up, let them! You may make a new friend if nothing else.
Amateur Entertainment Nights
Try amateur night like Karaoke, playing instruments, comedy night.
Flea Markets
Busiest times are on the weekends.
Poetry Readings
Are you thinking – this one's just not for me. Don’t forget the most important lesson – Step out of your comfort zone!
Swing, Salsa or Country Dancing
Many local establishments offer free lessons on specific nights during the week. This is an easy way to meet a woman because you are forced to interact together.
Jewelry Shows or Gardening Shows
You probably never even thought events like this existed. Well they do, and you'll see lots of women in attendance.

Best way I found to meet interesting women is to pick an activity you like and get involved with a group. meetup.com should have hundreds of groups in your area. Although most groups are not specifically for singles they do tend to have a high percentage of singles. I met my favourite lady through a motorcycle meetup.
