Here's a good way to know if your dating time is well spent: Find a place you enjoy. Go there. Introduce yourself to the people who work there (bartenders, waitresses, managers, whoever), and become a regular.

Notice the other people who are around you.

Notice that there are others who come here often as well.

Introduce yourself. Share an appetizer. Recognize them next time they are there. Wave. Say hi. Ask about that thing you talked about over the appetizer last time you talked.

And guess what? You have just met someone with similar interests, and not a bit of technology was used.
