Finding love on the South Shore
Article published on February 6, 2025

Want to delete your dating apps and connect with other humans in real life? In this article, we’re suggesting three activities that can help you find love in the real world: joining a sports club, taking a trip to the dog park, and getting involved in volunteer work.
Volunteer your time

Volunteering allows you to meet people who share similar values and a shared commitment to the causes you hold dear. Collaborative settings often promote authentic exchanges and encounters. And by spending time together to help others, you can create meaningful bonds that may just turn into a loving relationship.
Some volunteer centres that are accessible by public transit:
Visit a dog park

Dog owners have a great excuse to talk to one another. At the dog park, questions abound: “Are they male or female? How old is he? What breed is she? What’s his name?”
Making the first move is so much easier when you’re with a dog! Don’t have one? Borrow one from a friend. They’ll be delighted to let you take their furry companion for a stroll.

Join a sports club

In addition to helping you stay in shape, joining a sports club allows you to meet people who share your passion for fitness. It could be running, walking, hiking, climbing, pickleball—you name it! The important thing is to want to go, and to keep coming back.
