The general consensus is that the hot spot to meet people is at the workplace. The majority of one’s time is spent at work, which makes it a logical place to start relationships. Not to mention you’re guaranteed at least one common interest with a coworker. Church came in second, which tells us our readers are interested in friendships with others of the same moral standards. Mutual acquaintances was third - it seems we can rely on each other to make new connections. Overall, the key to meeting new people is putting yourself in social environments and letting life take its course.
