Probably shyer than most eighteen year olds out there. Cause of that I find I'm often alone a lot. It's been this way for a long, long time and I kinda don't want to be anymore, so I've been trying to like for the past two years really to improve, and I have. I have a good deal of friends but I'm a tad uncomfortable inviting a lot of them to go do stuff.   Anyway, though, I'm kinda getting frustrated that I haven't had much if any experience with girls, and I'm turning nineteen in September and I think it's just kinda sad I haven't met anyone that I've really liked. This past semester I even went to meetings of a club where I thought I'd meet some girls with similar interests to my own and I still didn't find anyone.   One of my friends said a great place to meet girls of similar interests are at concerts (any type) since you'll obviously share music tastes. I just don't know how that would work with me. So I dunno, I guess the point was to ask if you guys knew how I could go about meeting people without having to go into the party scene? I don't drink or dance and am rather uncomfortable at parties that have either...so I don't think that's the ideal social outlet for me. Sorry for being long winded, I feel like I have to explain myself a lot...=/ I hope it's not too much...[/quote] FAQ Keyword Search: Post Options Favorites Manager Notify me of new replies to this topic by email Notify me of new replies to this topic by private message Original Post metrico Posted at 10:39 am on July 19, 2008 As you guys may know, I'm very, very shy.

Replies metrico Posted at 8:01 pm on July 19, 2008 I've been grocery shopping and I never really seen people my own age shopping at the same time, lol. Also, I'd never just ask a stranger for their number like that, that's just crazy. Also, pretty sure no girl would ever give one I dunno, I just have a hard time in terms of compatibility with people due to my interests and hobbies, I think.
