Palm Desert, CA, November 24, 2006 - It's Just Lunch, the premier dating service for busy professionals with over 100 locations world wide, is here to help singles meet someone new during the holiday season. Instead of looking for love in all the same places try changing your strategy in order to change your luck this holiday season.

Meet Someone New This Holiday Season by Looking Somewhere New
1. Step outside your comfort zone and shift your social circle - We all have an acquaintance we promise to make plans with when we run into them, but never do. Actually make the plans and carry them out this time. By getting to know one person outside of your social circle you are opening yourself up to meeting everyone in their circle, increasing your chances of meeting someone you're interested in.

2. Attend every holiday party you get invited to, even the ones you normally would turn down - While at a party, set a goal to strike up a conversation with at least 5 people you don't know. By leaving a lasting impression, the people you meet will be more likely to think of you when they are trying to set up other singles they know.

3. Move to a new neighborhood - This is a little dramatic and who has time to move during the holidays? Instead of packing up your boxes and relocating, get your coffee and cocktails, do your grocery shopping and go on a run in the neighborhood next to yours. You'll be crossing paths with a new group of people and will start seeing the same people throughout the week, creating a great opportunity to strike up a conversation.
