Around the year 2000, there still was almost no advertising on the internet. I remember that a search for "how to meet women" returned a website with lots of pages/chapters into which someone had obviously poured a lot of earnest effort. The advice sounded sensible. The only thing I remember is that it recommended to work on yourself, in particular to develop a sense of responsibility, and said that getting a dog could give you a first taste of it.
I think it was actually called "how to meet women", but it's impossible to find today.
