For some reason I'm having a really hard time meeting someone.

>I have a car
>I'm about to med school
>overall I'm well put together

yeah, you are you interesting? I mean, what are your hobbies?

>>18347613
Don't have a whole lot, but I feel this shouldn't be a deal breaker? I just go to the gym, go out to bars with live music every now and then, and like reading... I mean does every guy need to play an instrument or something to meet someone?

18 yo here, you're not alone, finding a new social hobby always leads to new opportunities in my experience. I have trouble meeting girls too. I go to college, regularly meet up with my male friends but I hardly ever get a chance to talk to girls and we never really hit it off when it does happen. I don't think this sort of thing has anything to do with something being 'wrong' with someone, just a bit of bad luck that we haven't really met anyone who 'fit' us yet. It's good you go out and try and make as many opportunities you can. I think the best thing to do is just to continue to be social, try and get into a good social group, (I do this, for example by going out to the city and regularly meeting up with friends to play d&d). Try and meet some new people at med-school and do your best to fit in with a group and you’ll naturally meet new people in your life I guess (male and female), and eventually something romantic might come of it.

Thanks for the reassurance man. I'm really hoping to meet people in school but I want to make sure I'm not using it as a crutch because I know it won't last forever.

I'm in the same boat, going to University next year and moving to a completely new city. I'm just thinking of my time here as practice meeting people for when I leave. I think the best way to look at it is that school won't last forever, yes but whatever happens, the experience there will make socialising easier once school is over, and there'll be heaps of opportunities after that as well.

>play an instrument

I tried going to a few club activities the past year (acting classes and volunteering for a political campaign) but they werent fruitful. People tend to be very cliquey, felt like a stranger. One girl from the volunteerinng had a passing interest in me but I wasnt attracted to her at all

>>18347895
Was she that ugly? Just get laid

>>18347576
The questions are:
Are you nice to talk to?
Are you autistic?
Are you interesting or would I rather talking to a stone than talking to you?

>>18348701
Not op but say I act autistic but nice to talk to and interesting?

No need for hobbies or other bullshit.
Books, movies... just so she knows you're a normal person.

>listen to her

>>18347895
>ask about hobbies

>acting classes
>political campaign

Man, I'm sorry. You sound like a douche.

>>18348972
Me again, that's what I do, but I supress autism the first dates. I mean I try to be funny and entertaining and not too weird. It works for me.

Work out, get less fat, get nicer clothes. Females are superficial, so these are the first things they notice.

>>18349119
Women are as superficial as men faggot, you are in a website that is 90% porn and 10% little anime girls, don't talk about superficiality

>>18347576
All the good ones are taken.

>>18349148
I'd say it is not true.

Sounds like you either aren't telling us your true interests or you are super basic. What inspires you? What is exciting in life for you? It sounds to me like you spend a lot of time and energy on trying to be normal and it has made you into a walking snooze fest. You dont need to play a guitar, but it would help you to have some interests.

>>18349119
I gym 2-3 times a week, normal BMI

>>18349190
The things I find in life very interesting seem to bore women. Science, politics (and no I'm not an autistic raging /pol/tard), music.. I've tried talking to girls about this stuff and they just get bored. You're right, I've tried dumbing it down to their level.... but there's a reason for that

>>18349030
even douches get laid.

OP, I'm just a 21 year old guy with limited life experience but I'm going to throw in my two cents if you'll have it.

You have to keep trying and keep putting yourself out there as you're on the right track. Anyone would feel discouraged in your position. But you have to keep going and keep trying. I don't think there is any other way.

Cheer up OP, you sound like a smart person that has their shit together.

And I learned this recently:

To make friends and connections, you have to truly be yourself and be vulnerable with people. And sometimes it will be awkward, but that's a step in the right direction.

I'm rooting for you OP I know you can grab the life that you want!

Getting laid =/= a relationship
