Well, there isn't one as far as I know, but you and I could start one. How does Tuesday afternoon sound?

Seriously though, I've heard through the grapevine that there are some sites where you could just look for McMaster students specifically, such as "plenty of fish" or "kijiji" lol

Post your pic here and we will figure everything out.

Also you could put a message on those message boards all over campus, with your picture, preferences and phone number, bet someone will call.

That's how finding somebody you date works, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. People use the belief that getting into relationships is hard because of reason x, then use that as a crutch and don't do anything about it. They're taken, they're gay, out of my league, frienzone, nothing in common, blah blah blah boo hoo

Try to find somebody, fail, try to find another, they're taken, try again, they're not your type, fail, try again, they're gay, try again, get discouraged, try again, eventual success...

If you sit near them in class, before or after class then ask them a question about the material if they aren't in a rush. If they explain something to you or seem confused, ask them to go and study later to help figure it out.

Such a common question, but rarely coming from a girl.

You hold all the cards yo'. Just go say hi to the guys you want to talk to. Use anything as an excuse, for help, for directions, whatever you can think of. Ask for their number etc.

Or just go out for coffee with me and I'll show you how easy it is to just walk up to someone and say hi.

Wow, you've got all the bases covered... that's pretty much a fail-proof plan. Must employ.

Damn Afzal, that's really smooth.

Something I should keep in mind for next time.
