Dating Games for Guys
Although some guys might interpret the words "dating games" lightly, the best approach is to remember another person's feelings are at stake. Dating games are best when kept within the realm of meeting people. Once a man has met someone for a date, any more game playing could be insensitive. That said, dating should still be fun and enjoyable. For some men, dating can seem overwhelming and dating games offer some simple methods for finding the right person.

Find a Woman Named Jane
-
A good dating game often helps a guy break the ice with new people. Given the goal of finding someone named Jane -- or Jill, Andrea or Kim -- a guy has some purpose and direction. He can tap on the shoulder of a woman and ask, "Are you Jane?" In all likelihood, he won't find someone named Jane, but he might be able to start a conversation with a woman worth asking out for a date. Although he might have some explaining to do later, this simple game can help a guy overcome some of those initial hesitations to introduce himself to a new person.
Give Away 100 Cards
-
Most men have business cards and are accustomed to handing them to new people. A guy can set aside 100 cards with the intent of handing them out to prospective dates within two or three months. This simple goal ensures the guy always has a business card to hand to new people and provides some motivation to do so.

50 Dates from the Internet
-
For many shy people, the Internet provides a safe way to meet other singles who are specifically interested in dating. With the many dating websites, a guy can read through thousands of profiles to find some prospective dates that share lifestyle, interests and personality. However, reading profiles and sending messages isn't dating. With the goal of trying to set up one date per week, a guy could meet about 50 new people within a year.
Party for Friends Plus One
-
One of the best ways for a guy to meet people for dating is through his network of friends. He can select a weekend night to throw a party, and invite friends to come to the party with someone new who also is looking for dates. Not only can this help him meet new people, but it helps his friends to meet people for dating as well. The party can just be a casual gathering, or it can include some additional games to help everyone socialize.
