How do you find people to date?


I don't, generally.

Who introduces you to people?


There aren't many people to whom to be introduced.

Are you a member of any dating websites?


Somehow, it hasn't come to that yet.

How do you ask someone to go on a date?


"Would you like to go out to dinner with me?" is the old stand-by.

Where do you think you will find a person you want to date?


Hopefully grad school...

What piques your interest and makes you want to date someone?


Shared interests in science, entertainment, and/or rational atheism, plus some degree of physical attraction and personality compatibility.

When do you best like to date?


I'm not sure what this means.

What do you like about dating?


If done right, it leads to a fulfilling relationship.

Where do you go on dates?


Restaurants, movie theaters, houses/apartments, the beach and other such areas which encourage fun.

What does it mean to "put yourself out there?"


To me, it implies being extremely social in order to come into contact with as many potential dates as possible. This has never been my strong suit.

Why do you date?


If I ever do, it's in search of a fulfilling relationship.

What else would you like to say/tell us about dating?


It's very difficult to be an atheist only interested in dating other atheists, even at a science/engineering school (which was surprising to me). So far, my experience can be described as follows: single, attractive, and atheist; pick two. For those wondering why I have such a requirement: I have plenty of friends with different religious beliefs and different levels of dedication to those beliefs, but in a romantic relationship, I don't feel I would be able to be truly emotionally intimate with someone who didn't share what I consider to be a fundamental aspect of my worldview.
