I'm 22 years old and just out of college. During my time at school, I spent a lot of time on my own. At one point I took off a year when I was experiencing some problems to cycle around the country. I was alone the entire time, but I've never been happier. When I was back at school, I became very committed to a few activities that kept me busy. I met people that way, and have made some very good friends, but I never had anything close to a relationship.

 

I used to be pretty shy, but have come out of my shell a lot. Many would say that I'm a funny and outgoing guy. At the same time though, I have another side - a shyer and I guess you can say romantic side that people don't really know about.

 

I've spent a good deal of my youth so far just trying to make peace with certain problems I faced a while back. Now, I want something more, but I'm having trouble finding it. I've never dated girls, nor do I really know where to start. I've asked some out over the years but none have ever accepted. I'm not so good at telling when a girl is interested in me. Sometimes I have some idea but it ends up not going anywhere. Now that I don't have school to meet people anymore, I'm not sure what to do or where to go. If I continue to be isolated for an extended amount of time, I might drop everything and go on another bike trip like before.

 

Ok, I'm sorry for rambling, but I need a place to let my thoughts out. Thanks for listening, and any responses would be greatly appreciated.

Why don't you join a local cycling club or start one?

Maybe, though cycling has always been something I like to do alone. Occasionally I'd go out with another guy or two but I'm not too interested in doing a club. I don't mean to be negative, but it's more of a solo thing for me.

 

I do have other things that keeps me connected to others, so I don't necessarily need to rely on cycling.
