shadowplay Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 Things have been going well for me lately on everything except the social front. I don't know anyone in the place I've moved to. I'm always either in classes, working at my job or studying. The rare spare hours I have I usually spend sitting lifelessly in front of my computer screen or sleeping. Anyone care to wallow with me? Let's eat crackers and talk about how much life sucks. If nobody responds to this soon I'll probably just go to sleep.
Lucky_One Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 Where do you live? Or closest large city within 30 miles, if you aren't comfortable being specific.
Konfuzion Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 Why not post an ad on craigs list for a friend(s) to hang out with?
Lucky_One Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 I must be old or something, but the guys on Craigs List seem creepy. A lot of people seem to like that way of meeting people, but it isnt' for me.
Author shadowplay Posted September 26, 2008 Author Posted September 26, 2008 I live in Massachusetts.
Nemo Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 If nobody responds to this soon I'll probably just go to sleep. Goodnight.

jerbear Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 Goodnight. That is so wrong! I'm not a crackers kinda of guy, what about ice cream?
Cherry Blossom 35 Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 I'm tired, sitting listlessly in front of the computer, and trying to avoid the fact that I've been seeing a really nice, genuine guy who I'm not attracted to. Depressing. I don't want to hurt him. I want to be attracted. He's really nice. I'm just not.
Cherry Blossom 35 Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 I meant I'm not attracted to him, not that I'm not nice. I'm tired and it's raining.
Lucky_One Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 http://www.localwineevents.com/Greater-Boston-Wine/event-201472.html Here you go - Boston Wine School on Sunday night. I would LOVE to go to that!
Author shadowplay Posted September 26, 2008 Author Posted September 26, 2008 I meant I'm not attracted to him, not that I'm not nice. I'm tired and it's raining. Why aren't you attracted to him? He's not cute enough, right? I'm not passing judgment btw.
Author shadowplay Posted September 26, 2008 Author Posted September 26, 2008 OK - try here. http://www.socialbostonsports.com/ They even have a message board. Thanks, but I don't know much about sports and I suck at all sports. I wish I was into sports because it would be a great way of meeting people. All the things I'm good at or like are pretty individual and introspective -- art, reading, etc. Gah, why must I be such a dork.
Cherry Blossom 35 Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 Why aren't you attracted to him? He's not cute enough, right? I'm not passing judgment btw. Yeeeee....ikes. Yes. He's not cute enough.

They seem to have a lot of fun and I'm pretty sure you don't have to have much skill to play.
Author shadowplay Posted September 26, 2008 Author Posted September 26, 2008 Yeeeee....ikes. Yes. He's not cute enough. Were you hoping the attraction might grow if you got to know him better? (it never does) sidenote: I love Gene Tierney! She's the most beautiful actress in history, imo.
Lucky_One Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 http://www.tableforeight.com/boston/index.htm Ok then. Dinner with 7 strangers, 3 other women and 4 men. Everyone has to eat, right?

There are aficionados that enjoy those activities.

She's the most beautiful actress in history, imo. I love her too! Yes, I've been hoping the attraction would grow. He treats me so well. Very classy guy. I enjoy talking to him. He's comfortable to be around. But I was sitting at dinner last night and I just kept thinking that I don't want to jump him. I don't have the urge to wrap my arms around him, kiss him, whatever.

Lucky_One Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 http://women.meetup.com/1164/ Ok then. A group for women who want to find women friends bc their other female friends are with their BFs.

Everyone has to eat, right? that looks interesting except it's too old for me. I'm still a student. Seems more geared toward the 30+ crowd. I appreciate your effort and help, though. I think I might just be a hopeless case.
