Anyone here succeeded at making the transition from being a hermit to a mostly normal person? I've basically spent most of my life focusing on my work and went back to college a while ago, turning 25 in a few months. Never really clicked with my peers and I can count on one hand the number of women I've been seriously interested in.
I've tried putting myself out there some more, but all of the college clubs are based around identity politics and it's kind of awkward being surrounded by teenagers. I tried meetup, but where I live it's basically dominated by coding, hiking, and poly dating. I feel like I'm doing something horribly wrong at this point because at this point outside of my family I have no real support structure since the few friends I do have tend to need me to support them instead.

truth is you have to put yourself in a place of uncomfortability, like going out and doing clubs, and you need to keep doing it. Getting comfortable is the enemy, you need to try new things and be honest about yourself while doing it, and when I say honest about yourself I mean your personality on a scale of 1 to 10 you should be a 4 or 5. So I mean you can be you but don't be jumping around to get attention to show off what your personality is like.

find social things to do, this won't happen by itself you need to put some effort into it
internet search for "contra dancing" see if any near you, ezpz dancing, more like co-ed walking aerobics, minimal speaking needed just be clean be polite & ask gals to dance, partnet not needed
otherwise book clubs, movie clubs, hiking clubs whatever find something social and start doing it
you you you you it's all on you
better to work on this now than wait wait wait until you're 35 45 55 etc
good luck
