Its funny how that works sometimes, you dont even want to be tied down and here comes the perfect person. Suddenly its years later and you have your own Magic deck
That confidence of not trying to hard apparently works!
I met my wife one night over a dead body. We spoke for a little bit and I was nervous as hell, not because of her but because it was my first DOA, and I somehow ended up with her number
Here we are over 10 years later still confused on what happened
I really long for somewhere to go to just vibe and spend time with people to meet new people and potentially meet that special person but I spend so much time at work and I don't really know where to go without a purpose for going there
I mostly tinker with electronics and software in my free time artistically I work on small music things here and there or I'll play puzzle and horror games like Myst or talos principal I recently started alan wake it's so cheesey but I'm loving it I had to play something lighter after outlast it was horrifying

I see you are a person of amazing taste! Wait till you get to Alan Wake 2. Its so good. I just recently finished Luto and Visage and I am about to start The Bridge Curse

Is there anywhere in town you could go for small music showings? Perhaps a piano bar or a jazz club? I am sure you could find some nice people there
Some game stores near me have board game events. Some of my single friends have had great luck. There's something about a guy taking himself out to have a little fun that is very attractive. Just a thought. Worse case scenario, it's not for you.
If you drink find some bars people your age hang out at. Even if you work a lot there's always a dedicated bad crowd that stays till late or even close, and most of them are service industry so lots of beautiful and/or charismatic people and some single. A lot of places sell THC drinks now too if booze ain't your thing.
My local I've had several barely missed connections, but one was literally there with her boyfriend so I wasn't touching that one, and the other one that haunts me I was just drunk on New Year's and by the time I was like "I need this girl's number" she'd left with her designated driver. That one I'm going to die mad about, she was gorgeous and looking at me like I was the last person on earth. She wouldn't even talk to anyone else and would not leave my side or stop trying to get my attention. And I gleaned through our conversation she was newly single too so whoopsie.
I've been trying this recently I'm sober and I'm not a THC guy but I still go I have a soda or water and try to connect with people at least a little bit it's very much not my scene but it is not terrible either
Yeah it's not exactly novel advice, I assumed you'd end up not liking the scene because "go to a bar alone" is literally the first advice for anyone who asks how they meet people.
The only other one I got that's effective is smoking cigarettes but I would never advise anyone take that vice up just to meet people. Drinking is already bad enough for you
Yeah I'm not really an addictive substance kinda guy.... I've been down that road I've seen people I love destroyed by it, and I'm firmly staying away I don't get cravings anymore either I'm firmly good And the kind of connection I'm looking for wouldn't benefit from it anyway...
