Meeting people

Or more specifically, how to meet men?  My social circle consists almost entirely of people I have met through parenting...  Not suprisingly there is a distinct lack of available men! 
I've tried online dating in the past and found it frustrating, lots of work for very little reward really.  Part of that was possibly my lack of confidence in putting myself forward, but there was also the living in an area with a relatively small population and the tendency to scare them off by being independent that I have mentioned before.  (Apologies for that last sentence being so confusing...)

Last night was my free night away from the kids and I had dinner with a friend and her family then went to see Brave.  Driving back through town I contemplated going get a drink somewhere but it was midnight so all the places open were very full of people who were in groups and had been drinking for a while - a little intimidating to go into by myself! 

So I'm left with the conundrum - how to meet people?  Perhaps trying online dating again, if nothing else I'd get some amusing stories out of it I guess!
