It's something cool to talk about when you do meet them though. Certainly better than talking about the weather
Yeah speed dating sounds like a good idea, I might try it just for the social practice. Although it costs a fair bit, but that's fine, I mean, it's a night out..

It's not so much what I'm doing isn't working the way I want, my life seems to be going in the right direction..
it's just that I'm not really meeting women, and maybe not actually doing anything to meet them.. (why I started this thread) Maybe I need to small talk counter girls more than I have been, or so, random strangers etc...

I went to 1 gig this year, and had one girl, approach me. So it was pretty good success rate, and plus I love getting into new music, seeing new bands and stuff.. Music's an important part of my life.. and last year when I lived in London I went to on average a gig every week.. So I should definitely occasionally go to gigs in town to enjoy music and enjoy my life... But I can't really expect to find girls that are going there to hook up, they're not pickup joints, everyones there to see the band, but if you meet someone it's cool..

I might try and add some new fun activities.. and hopefully there'll be women along the way, and if not, I'll still have fun..

The other thing is you're 23, and getting told "if you were 5 years older" but I'm 27 and 28 in about 2.5 months, but I look like I'm 22-23, but that's alright, I've figured it's best not to think too much about it, unless I want to grow a beard or something, which I don't really..
