I like the bookstore idea 
Problem is, I have a friend who almost shadows me, who would scare off any fish swimming nearby
"Wanna come home with me and see my book collections?"

Is that weird?
I think in order to enjoy life, you must just enjoy the little parts of life. Go and do things because you want to do it, not because you might find your potential partner. If you're so worried about finding someone to spend your life with by going out and doing things in order to find him or her, you're missing out on the little joys of life and it can cause stress because when you go out, you typically don't find "the one."
God can call us to be single for the rest of our lives, or He can call us to be married. Regardless of what your calling in life is, enjoy each moment of it. Enjoy the small things.
It's natural for you to have a desire to find someone. It really is. I'm content in my singleness and I'm not miserable, but I do know I have a desire to settle down in the future. Right now, though, until that happens, I am enjoying those small moments in life. Why worry about something that I can't control? I can't control who likes me, so why worry about it?

The head of Education at the Christian university I went to, at the entry interview I attended asked me if I was married. I said, no. That I'd never even had a girlfriend. He looked shocked. Then he replied, "Christian, I'm going to make it my personal mission to find you a girl before your course is done." Haha! He became my favourite lecturer (not because of that, but because we would banter back and forth in workshop classes and to a lesser extent, lectures). But did he make good on his promise? No, he did not! 4 years later and I still didn't have a girlfriend. Haha! Then about 2 years ago, he saw me at a Medieval Fair with a friend. Still wanted to know how I was going and if I was now married. Haha! No.

It's fine, sometimes i am wondering why most christians are single, is it because we have high standard?

I suppose it could be. Like in the past year alone God has changed in me what I desire and what's important in a potential relationship. I am not actively looking for one as God has my focus on some other things, however if he puts a man in my life then so be it. He is never too early, too late and always right on time

Every time I found someone interested in me, it was when I was doing something I really enjoyed doing, and they sort of blind-sided me because I wasn't even looking. I was just having fun doing what I enjoyed. Of course, I had to be open to the idea of someone else in my life. This does not mean that person was the one I should marry. This is just about meeting someone with whom I might have a better chance of having commonalities. The key is to be open when and if it does happen. Be personable. Be kind. You guys and gals know all of that stuff better than me. I don't understand you sometimes. As nice as you all are, I just don't get it. I guess I have a lot to learn, even at my age?

That is quite opposite here Tintin.
My church have a bible study class on Sundays for singles 35+, it's about 50/50 there. I serve in a singles ministry in my city, we meet every Saturday evening for 30 minutes of teachings or testimonies and then we go out for dinner or whatever afterward, the percentage there is more like 75/25, the majority being women.
