Where can you meet good women without being weird

Hey guys, I’m looking for some advice. I’m a 25M trying to date more seriously, but dating apps have been really disappointing. I feel like they’re how most people meet now, but I don’t want them to be my main way of interacting with people.I’ve been trying to get out more and meet people in person, but I keep running into two problems: either there aren’t many single women where I go, or the vibe is more about casual hookups than something serious.Friends suggest bars, and I’ve tried a few even though they’re outside my comfort zone, but it still feels like the same situation. People also say to join clubs or go to church, but it feels a little strange going somewhere with the main goal of meeting women. Plus, most of my hobbies tend to be male-dominated. Ideally, I think I’d do best in a social environment where it’s normal to talk to new people (like festivals or events), but those aren’t happening very often right now. Any suggestions for places where people are social, approachable, and where there might be more singles?
