Hello, my name is Scott and I'm a photoholic.

Life is a whole lot more. It's making memories to smile and laugh about later in life. You have none of those.. except joy from solving an equation. I think even having you son is a benefit women like men who have children and are doing the "right" thing. Your son can be a girl magnet for you. You just have to be open to something new. are you even willing to do that?

 

[monkeykoder]

I'm outside of my comfortable world of books and I have no clue how to be open to "fun" I don't even notice the opportunities that present themselves to me until they force themselves into my lap I don't have the social experience most people gained pre-college so I don't even see what is out there available to me I stuck my nose in books for too long and now I'm regretting it because the people out there with similar life experiences are in the same boat I am. **** I'm good at making excuses and this does nothing for me.

All this talking I'm doing is reminding me of a quote from a book I tried reading to impress a female "Even a fool is thought wise who knows to hold his tongue" (probably wrong like I said TRIED to read).

Dustin we don't want you to quit talking.

 

[Yemme]

I see people on this forum putting together meet and greets in their area. Who in here is close to you that you are somewhat comfortable with to tag along with you to an event like that.


And BB is on point we don't want you to stop talking about this issue. Nothing is easy in life.

It seems all successful meetups are on the east coast or in other countries.

 

[Yemme]

Oh ..... well you could make your own meet and great the first successful one. Plus you can do a guest list of people you might like to get to know better.

 

[monkeykoder]

Not many people in the Sacramento area plus everyone knows 90% of the people on this forum are male.

 

[Yemme]

You just have an answer for everything. Don't yah!

 

[monkeykoder]

Like I said I think too much. Fun is something you do without thinking my brain is working 25hrs a day.

Hey what about the one we are trying to put together?? Hmmm... I am hopefully going to be in Bakersfield in Feb.. There are TONS of girls at diesel events!!!

Like I said I think too much. Fun is something you do without thinking my brain is working 25hrs a day.

Hahaha, you are too funny... Everyone knows there are 28 hours in a day.. hahahaha SOOO kidding...

Hmm Maybe things would get done if there were 28 hours in a day..

For being in your early 20s you are prtty uptight. You need to set your mind to loosen up. When I was your age I was traveling, working and, chasing women. I didnt think about anything till later. Life is too short bro, go out and live it.

 

[monkeykoder]

I guess I am. I go to a party and have no idea what to do in a room of people that don't have much interest in math or science. I have always associated with people with a strong interest in math and the hard sciences which tends to be a different kind of interaction than that among the rest of the world. The only problem with this of course is the fact that there are very few women in these fields so I have to go outside of my zone of competence to attract one.

In 1990 I went into kidney failure and since have received 2 transplants. I was 35. I can attest to the concept that life is short and passes you by very quickly. I am fond of the little blurb "Life is too short to sweat the small stuff". I witnessed this yesterday first hand as Cathy and I watched her mother pass. So party like a rock star, sing as if no one can hear, dance like you can't be seen and live each day as if it were your last. (we never know when that might be true)

 

[monkeykoder]

I would have to figure out the whole enjoying life thing.
