Get Hooked Up With Someone Before Valentine's Day by Randy Gardner - "Romeo"

February 14th is just around the corner. For couples, this is a time to celebrate togetherness with wining, dining, dancing and romancing. For singles out there, however, it can be one heck of a drag. There is nothing worse than being in a room when love is in the air and there is none to be had for you.

So, with this in mind, my suggestion for all those lonely singles out there is to get up, get busy and take matters into your own hands. There are some excellent ways to meet fantastic ladies and spectacular and sweet guys. One thing is for certain, if you are sitting on the couch, watching romantic movies and pining for a love of your own, it is never going to happen.

Without further adieu, here are some of the hottest ways to get hooked up with someone down before the big red heart day arrives.

Speed Dating Is Furiously Fast Fun This is a relatively new concept that enables a room full of singles to enjoy a slew of mini-dates all within a short time span. The idea involves pairing folks up for a quick question and answer session before the date ends and the next one begins. At the end of the evening, participants are free to share their personal information with individuals they would like to get to know better.

Speed dating is a fantastic way to meet a bunch of singles all at once. It can even result in some very good matches, or at least lasting friendships.

I strongly suggest giving it a whirl. It is fun, fast and a wonderful change of pace over the nightclub scene.

Computer Dating Works If you would rather find the love of your life without leaving the comfort of your own home or office, this idea is a real winner. Computer dating is almost as old as computers and if the right services and honest answers come into play, the matches can prove spectacular.

I highly recommend computer dating for hooking up with singles in specific geographic regions. This method enables participants to make a number of connections and gives them a safe distance to decide who they would really like to meet and who they might want to pass on.

The Supermarket Okay, I will give you that this one is a cliché, but the fact of the matter is some wonderful relationships have begun in grocery store aisles, drug stores and other similar public places. Now, I am not suggesting that singles lurk behind the banana stand hoping to find the love of their lives. What I am saying, however, is that if you get out there, keep your eyes open and remember to smile, a connection just might find you.

Spending February 14th without a Valentine is no fun at all. There is still plenty of time to get out there and meet someone fun, intriguing and maybe even perfect. Just open yourself up to the possibility, turn off the television and open your eyes. The right match for you is out there if you are willing to look.
