Anas, there are a lot of places to meet people in SL (depends on who you want to meet ;P). The popular dance clubs (like Phat Cat's, Carribean Breezes) always have events, and there are usually singles there at the bar. Or just attend events at your fav venue (live music, school, whatever)

Depending on what you like to do in SL, you can also join a particular community (like a role-playing sim or a building group or a residential community). Thats actually a better way to meet someone, but takes a bit of time. At least you will have fun doing it :)

Have fun :)

Hi Natalia, Firstly, thanks for all the good advice in your blog - it helped me get from noob to resident much more quickly than I would have done on my own! Secondly, I've just set up a dating board (KR Matchmaker at Katiya Rhode's Outpost)where people can post their profiles and look for friendship or romance and I wondered whether you would add it to your list of useful places?
Thirdly, do you have any idea why so many blokes ask how old you are within three seconds of meeting you?!
It's a mystery to me :)
Many Thanks
Katiya Rhode

Katiya, I generally write about sims, but you might want to talk with the Avastar or New World Notes about services you offer (they write articles about that).

Lol guys ask me the same thing in RL...it just takes them a bit longer (or in a more roundabout way ;P)

Firefly, congratulations! I am so happy for you :) I also heard a story from another friend.

Best wishes for both of you :) May you have a wonderful first and second life together!

Shea Bleac said...

hey im hearing that you can get pregnant on second life.do you think is true?

Natalia Zelmanov said...

Shea, heehee yes...its true :) There are pregnancy clinics where you can "purchase" a pregnancy kit and everything, then schedule a delivery and stuff. It's kinda role-playing...I had a friend who tried it and its kinda funny (the stomach is scripted and bugs you all the time ;P)

Wish RL pregnancies were this easy (esp with getting back in shape ;P)
