New Years Eve is an amazing night. The end of one year, the start of something new. Whilst it’s so easy to avoid the celebrations and parties because you have no one to spend them with, New Years Eve can actually help you meet people. You might even meet that special someone. Let’s take a look at some of the fun things you can get up to on New Years Eve with the potential of meeting someone too!
This is a paid collaboration with WeLoveDates.
Head Into Town
You might think that the prospect of going into town is horrible. The reality though, is that there are probably loads of people in the same position as you. There will be couples and singles a like, some keeping an eye out for someone who catches their eye, others just wanting to enjoy the party. You never know when you’ll meet someone who you could potentially fall in love with and enjoying a few drinks and the countdown with other people is exciting. If you don’t put yourself into situations where you might find someone, you never will!
Movie Marathons
Loads of cinemas put on movie marathons over the Christmas holidays. Why not enjoy a collection of fantastic films whilst munching on popcorn, hot dogs and cheese covered nachos? Whilst you might love Tom Hardy or Jennifer Lopez on the silver screen, you might actually spot someone else in the cinema dong exactly what you’re doing. Maybe you’ll be able to split a tub of pick ‘n’ mix and find someone with similar tastes to enjoy the next movie marathon with.
Party Time
If you’ve not yet RSVPed to a New Years Eve party because you know it will be full of couples and maybe even the odd ex or two, don’t be put off. It’s your New Years Eve just as much as everyone else and there’s nothing that a bit of dutch courage wont get you through. Whilst there might be ex girlfriends or boyfriends, there could be new people you haven’t yet met. Your future spouse could even be there!
Cocktail Or Sushi Classes
Why not get hands on and enjoy a new experience. Get yourself booked onto a cocktail making workshop or a sushi making masterclass! You’ll have loads of fun, lots of laughs and be able to sample fantastic creations. You might even meet someone on the course who you can share your sushi with or enjoy a cocktail or two alongside. Try a different kind of New Years Eve!
Blind Dates
Get your friends or family to set you up on a blind date this New Years Eve. They probably know you better than yourself and they might just be able to match you up with someone spectacular. If you don’t trust your loved ones with this important task, join a website to find someone. There are loads of free dating sites available where you can discover people in your local area with similar interests to you.
Get Your Bowl On
Whilst the shoes aren’t the most glamorous, enjoying a night down at the bowling alley is always good fun! Order some drinks, input your names in a humorous style and keep your eye out for potential single folk on other lanes. Hopefully you’ll get a strike, rather than end up as a spare!
Singles Night
One way to be sure that you’re surrounded by potential suitors is to get yourself along to a singles night. If you’re single and everyone else is single, there’s not real concern about approaching people. Weed out the good from the bad and you never know what might happen. Maybe you’ll be seeing in the New Year with a kiss.
Celebrate With Friends
Enjoy time with your friends on New Years Eve. Maybe there is a combination of couples, family and single people. Whilst there might not be anyone at the celebration who you can see the New Year in with, maybe having a chat with a family member will help you to see other people or ex partners in a new light. Maybe they can see you with someone and a date could be set up for in the New Year. Maybe your friends will bring along one of their friends and you could end up cuddling up with them for most of the evening. It could be the start of something great!
Ask Someone Out
Have you had your eye on someone for a while? Now is the time to ask them out. New Years Eve is romantic and you could start the New Year in style with someone you’re really into. They might have been waiting for the perfect opportunity to ask you out or been tapping their fingers, wondering why you haven’t told them that you like them yet. If you don’t ask, you’ll never know!
Speed Dating
Why not try a bit of speed dating on New Years Eve? 3 minutes with 20 or 30 potential matches is loads of fun! Whilst you’ll no doubt meet some people you wouldn’t look at twice, you might just turn the heads of a few where you could possibly see a future with. Speedy dating is exciting and you can spend time with loads of amazing people this New Years Eve!
Do Something You Love
Ultimately, see the old year out and new one in doing something you love. You never know who you might meet when you’e enjoying your favourite past time. If you meet someone doing the same thing that you are, you’ve already got something in common. That’s the ice breaker sorted and after the hobby, you can always go for a drink.
There are so many ways to ring in the New Year, even if you’re single. Why not try a website like WeLoveDates to find a potential partner? Push yourself out of your comfort zone, spend time with new people and you never know, you might meet the one!
