solo cruiser male - getting back out there, any tips?

hey all, new to this and kinda rusty. my marriage ended a while back and I'm finally dipping a toe back in. booked my first solo cruise on oasis of the seas. I'm aiming to meet people, hopefully some fun couples or single ladies. planning to hit the bars and lounges mostly, maybe some adult events if they have them. for those who cruise solo on these big ships, whats the best way to find the right crowd? should I be upfront about my interests early on, or just feel it out? I dont want to come on too strong but I also dont want to waste my whole trip just being shy.
