I think I might check out that Hiking Club, but they don't do anything during the Summer
You should do this one. This or the baseball thing. Sound like they're right up your alley. I am going to show my naivety here and admit I have no idea what the Sierra thing is... But I'm sure there is something similar in your age range. And I'm with you on the wanting to just meet new people thing. I'm to a point where I kinda just want a new group of people to hang out with. Not even in a romantic way, if that happens great, but I'm not seeking it out anymore... I'm kinda just over it.
Well even the Sierra Club isn't quite what I thought it was, it used to be dedicated to the preservation of America's wilderness lands, but it seems more dedicated to reducing fossil fuel dependency now (a worthy cause for sure, but not one I am not as passionate about). And yes I mostly just want to meet new people and the online dating thing was just an excuse to tell myself I was trying. Every year by the time Roo rolls around I resolve myself to the fact that I just don't connect well with people and I'm better off alone and then I remember how untrue that is at Roo. I don't want to do that cycle again

That is definitely not a cycle that should continue, because it is very not true. You do your own thing, for sure, but you are super easy to get along with and converse with and you're fucking funny as shit. There really is no reason why you should feel like you're better off alone or that #foreversingle is a real thing, because trust me, its not (at least not for you... I'll hold down the #foreversingle title for ya though). I hear you've opened up a lot in the past few years, but the Bacon I've met is super awesome and any girl would be absolutely lucky to have you even give them the time of day.
My point is that you're pretty awesome, Bakeycakes.

Thank you, and yes I know it is stupid. I know it's stupid even as it's happening but I still can't turn it off. That's why I'm trying (or trying to try I guess) to get out in front of it this year and make some changes

Yesss! The outside world needs more Bacon in it! Have you tried www.meetup.com/ ? Could be a good way to get a jump on some groups before school starts, since that is a long way away. Strike while the social-iron is hot!

I definitely caught a feeling for the girl I met at Gov Ball, Melissa, and it seems like that feeling is more than reciprocated. Problem is she lives in Mexico City and I in the lowly state capital of Pennsylvania. We have talked every day since Gov Ball and I'm seriously considering flying to Mexico City to see what's up. When I told my mom this plan, she was less than thrilled (and even at 34 I am a mama's boy at heart and have a hard time doing things she doesn't like).
I guess there is a chance that she's actually like a drug kingpin or something and that I'll never return to the US, or that I'll return with one fewer kidney - but I already have 3 kidneys, I can spare one right?

I have looked on there and there are some groups that seem interesting, but they do intimidate me more then a school thing for some reason.

That's awesome that you guys are clicking so well. I'm sorry she lives so far away. But if it makes you feel any better you're talking to a board full of people who have done the long distance thing and there are some that prove that it can work. If you can make the trip to see her, do it. It's not like you're meeting a stranger, you have met her. Besides, Mexico City is a neat place to visit at least once so there really is no down side to it. Enjoy all you feels man, that's the fun part. <3

Spoiler alert: meeting new people is always intimidating. Just do it.

I second the meetup idea. I have a hard time meeting people in real life. A while ago a friend suggested meetup and I've met a bunch of really cool people there. I'm part of about 5 different groups that revolve around drinking, dinners, concerts, and volunteering. I've actually made one really good friend from meetup and we are renting a place together in the city next month. I haven't necessarily made a bunch of friends but if I don't have a lot going on its nice to just hop on the app and see whats going on that night.
I've noticed that a lot of the girls I've been interested in recently are actually rather unhealthy matches for me, which kinda sucks. But the hardest part is figuring out which parent to blame it on.

I wish the hiking groups had some sort of shorted meetups. Meeting some people for drinks or something to plan a hiking trip would be far less intimidating than meeting up with people to car pool somewhere 2 hours away to go on a 6 hour hike.

Why don't you organize that? Sounds like a good idea
I thought about that, the first thing I thought of was the National Park less than 30 minutes from here. They are looking for volunteers for the desk at the Visitor's Center, but yet again I will only meet old people and tourists.

Move here and we will live a wonderful life together full of music and sunshine.
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.
