Well this is kind of embarassing, but what the hell.
I'm one of the many college-dropout poker pros. Money really isn't an issue as i've been doing quite well on the tables, and have been reinvesting most of my profits. Unfortunately this success hasnt come without its cost.
After going to college, I lost touch with a bunch of people in my home town, which is normal. Had my new group, had a GF, it was a good time. After quitting, I came back home and got back into my old clique. Now that summer is over, alot of those people are off to college themselves and I'm left bored out of my god damn mind.
I'm 20, so I cant go to bars/clubs. There is a riverboat casino in town, but...i'm 20. I'm an athiest so church activities arent really an option. Not especially good at any sports aside from ultimate frisbee...lol.
I think my biggest problem is that I've never been good with first impressions. Dont really know why, just a shortcoming of mine.
Oh btw, my last girlfriend/lay was during college. So i'm pretty much dying here.
Anybody else get through a similar situation? Any tips on social events where going alone wouldnt be an issue? I'm sure i'm not the only college dropout around here...so i hope someone can know where i'm coming from.
