 Bars and night clubs are probably not the best places to meet a potential partner anyway as most people are under the influence of alcohol and are not themselves.
At work is always a good place to meet someone, an evening class or college course also. Going to the gym after work is a good way to meet someone as you will share similar interests.
As you say the local supermarket could be a good place, espessially down the wine aisle lol.
Don't be to keen to meet someone though because this shows and can be a turn off. Invariably we meet our potential partners when we least expect it.
All the best of luck x

There are a range of places to meet people, and I always find that encounters occur when you are least expecting it, so always have your eyes peeled!
Do you work or are you often in a setting where there are a lot of males (university, college etc)? Perhaps you could make contacts here, and that could lead to wherever you want it to?
You mention your other friends, one very fruitful source for dating is friends of those friends - that way you get a kind of endorsement of them from someone who you trust - after all they arent likely to be friends with someone crazy (well, maybe....)
Finally, although you don't fancy going for a night out on your own, there are probably a range of clubs or evening classes around you which could offer a much safer setting to meet new people. At the end of the day clubs aren't the best place for striking up relationships - with the music blaring out too loud for anything resembling conversation!
Good luck with it, and patience can often be the key to making sure that the relationship you end in is the right one for you
