If I were to seriously address the topic, I would say...
If you see a girl you like, initiate the contact. Tell her that you're nervous and embarrassed but she looks so nice you had to approach her. She'll be flattered and you'll be honest and open with your feelings. Chicks dig that. 🙂 Exchange contact info and go from there.
But be prepared. Some will say no. Some will say yes but then avoid you. Some will say yes. And some will say yes.

After living with or dating women for 40 years I have come to the conclusion they arent worth the hassle.
I now own my own house and car and have plenty of money. Moving someone in would see them become owner of half my wealth, seems a bit unfair.
date them , yes ! move them into the house , never ! they get in the way of your music gear 😀
if i ever get divorced i will never ask another woman to live with me
Walk around your local town at night with your Trouser Snake hanging out and you will always pull a lady! 
She may even have her own set of cuffs!

Getting good with women takes a while for most of us. Asking a bunch of audiophiles and geeks won't get you far.Does anyone have any advice? I am pretty much starting from scratch. I know it will take some time, but I need to figure out how to start.
Read "The way of the superior man" by David Deida. Slightly abstract but very useful.
Also a good read "Manual Of Seduction" by Franco.

Vacuphile´s advice is very good.
`Women don't look for men looking for women; they like men who like what they do.´
`Women don't look for men looking for women; they like men who like what they do.´
See: The Graduate.
I guess kids don't have Quaaludes anymore.

No, since they had no actual medical value the DEA convinced all the manufacturers to stop making them. One source may be left in India.
You also have trouble buying Sudafed in quantity and lye is no longer sold to the general public. I think you can figure out how that process is done.
ES
Much of Europe has also banned the drug, but in certain countries, like South Africa it is becoming increasingly popular as a recreational drugOne source may be left in India

What are Quaaludes?
😀Whatever you do don't mention Hi-fi to a girl it never works.

Unless it's Eve-Anna Manley, and big hairy biker chicks turn you hard on (preferably even harder off).

I hate myself that my first meaningful post at DIYAudio is not about audio, but nevertheless.
I work in marketing and I can tell you, that getting woman is similar to sales. You can do push (someone calls you nad offers you the product) or pull (you build interest in your products and people come to you).
As you can clearly see, the pull model is much better, but to achieve it is much harder.
So my advice:
A. You need to change and the easiest thing to change is your look.
1. Get a good haircut at a fancy hair studio
2. Get nice looking clothes; the best way to do this is to ask some girl (any girl, sister, friends sister, anyone) to take you to the shops she frequents and to help you choose new clothes (don't go to the shop where you shop, remember you need to change)
3. Change the level of your style - if you tend to dress sporty - take something more formal, if you normally dress formal - take something casual
B. Meet girls - you're much more likely to meet single women, when you are with other women
1. Talk to girls even if they are not single, they probably have friends who are single
2. Build a network of female friends who are just friends, these may be single or in relationships, it doesn't matter; you want to show that you know how to act around women and it also makes you more desirable
3. When you have some female friends they will gladly be your wingman or matchmaker, girls love to do this
This should get you over the threshold 🙂
Cheers,
Jakub

tade, you're correct random people on the internet only go so far. Most of the comments in this thread are in the right direction and, if you're seeking more of the same, try Amy Alkon's columns or the epic SFF thread. They're not bad sources of perspective, especially if you're an engineer looking for a clue. I'd also second Jakub's suggestions in his part B and the suggestion of Meyers-Briggs early in the thread---the Kiersey temperament indicator's worth a look as well. All four of these are just tools, but they've all taught me useful things.
And, yes, moving and resetting your social circle kinda sucks. It depends on how social one is---I'd describe myself as mildly introverted---but it took about four years after my last move before my social calendar started filling itself on its own. For extroverts I know who've put a lot of energy into meeting people after they've moved it's taken them around a year.

Women...yeah, I remember those. I remember the headaches at bedtime, the constant arguing, sleeping on the couch, the "Do I look fat"´s, the mother in law...
I remember perfectly well when the last one took of with a fifteen years older guy (married, two kids) four days after I lost my job and I had to sell and give away a lot of my audio and music stuff and move into my parents basement for eight months after selling the house that we had bought just over a year earlier...
Sure, I still enjoy looking at them though. I also enjoy my new house in which I´ve knocked down the wall between the walk-in closet and the extra bedroom to build a proper listening room for my 4-way horn system...😀
BTW I have a drumkit and a doublebass in my bedroom these days. Wouldn´t have happened two years ago.

Dudes!I have the best solution to meet a woman!When ever you see a very good looking woman, smile and say hi to her!Satisfaction guaranteed!!!And keep your back straight! Very important! Women like men with good posture!Believe me, been there done that...How good looking you are, is the most insignificant factor...Just keep your back straight and shoulders back...
The good ones still out there somewhere, keep looking.
Mine been around for 20 years.
Can´t be for the looks or money.
So my no good advice be polite and talk to them if you don´t make contact they´ll never get to find out you´re a nice person.
A good marriage survives several Audio setups !!!!

LMAO. Can't do while doing the 69. Ermmm..... you're right: skeleton rules!
I've tried your suggestion leadbelly. My friends of past have been not very social and have either known no women, or the only woman they knew was their girlfriend. Either they really couldn't help, or they didn't care enough about me to help. I can't say.
But today I don't have any friends. Just moved back to my hometown from being in school for five years and in WI working. The last person I knew here now lives in Istanbul. Also, he didn't know anyone else either.
Online dating seems to be the way now... It worked for me!
You need speakers, BIG speakers. Women love big speakers that take up their living room
Especially DIY ones that are half finished
LMFAO!!
But seriously, are you really asking a bunch of audio nuts how to meet women!?
The only advice I could share with you is how to make them leave!!
My wife refers to my diyAudio t-shirt as a "contraceptive." She says, "When you're wearing that, I *know* you're not getting laid."
