Dating in 2025 can feel overwhelming, but social media dating coach Blaine Anderson is offering some simple advice to help single men feel more confident and get real results. In a recent Instagram video that went viral, Anderson gave three easy tips that she says can make a big difference for men struggling to meet women.
Her first piece of advice was clear: stop following Instagram models you’re attracted to. Anderson says this habit can create unrealistic expectations and keep men stuck in fantasy instead of focusing on real-life connections.
Her second tip: put down your phone and leave the house. “You won’t meet someone sitting on the couch,” she said, encouraging men to go out and experience life face-to-face.
The third tip is direct and simple: just go talk to a girl. Anderson stressed that it doesn’t need to be romantic or flirtatious. “Take the pressure off,” she said. “It can just be a normal conversation.”
The video quickly picked up attention online. “Solid advice!” one user commented. Another added, “Even better, get off social media entirely—your privacy is valuable.” Many of her 700,000 followers praised the coach for giving practical tips that feel honest and easy to follow.
Anderson has also encouraged men to try attending singles events, which she says are often overlooked. In another recent video, she featured an event in Austin, Texas called “Pitch-A-Friend.” There, friends of the single person create PowerPoint slides to promote them to a room of potential dates.
“Stop sleeping on singles events,” Anderson said. “They’re one of the most underrated ways to meet single women. I’m not talking about awkward speed dating at a hotel. It’s 2025—dating is evolving!”
Her dating advice has been featured in top outlets like The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and Forbes. She also offers free courses and content designed especially for men who want help improving their dating lives.
In addition to her own videos, Anderson appears on podcasts and collaborates with other creators to share ideas on how to make dating more fun and less stressful.
Whether men take her advice or not remains to be seen—but based on the response to her latest video, many seem ready to give it a try.
