There's always hot bitches to be found. Are you sure there are no clubs or anything?

My suggestion - skip the volunteer work and concentrate on something that makes YOU happier.

Additionally, it can be difficult to have extraordinary amounts of fun in small towns like that. Why not look for a job in Austin? I live there and I fucking love it.

Tennis and Golf? Hope you have a freakishly resilient rotator cuff.

I'd read a lot and maybe try to pick up a foreign language. These are the last prime years of your ability to pick up new things.

Get money. Fuck bitches. And you'll have both a little down the road.

(Texas ftw btw.)

I've lived in on a small island for my entire life. Rural areas can be extremely entertaining with a bit of creativity. Here's a list of things I do to keep myself from going insane from isolation:
1. Exercise a lot.
2. Hike a lot. (There is almost endless back country and trails to explore, and since it's in BC there's tons of nifty things like Grow ops, abandoned cabins, and the like all over the place.)
3. If you are a nightowl like me, walk around town at night. There's something eerie but simply amazing about standing in the center of a town without a soul around. Fortunately on my island there is next to no risk of being mugged/murdered/robbed, but this may be different where you are.

I'm not sure if many of those will be applicable since the place where I live is pretty unique, but hopefully it gives a few ideas. As for meeting others, there are usually several different cliques which occur at different times in different places (Morning Coffee, Lunch Break, Afternoon Cocktails, Beers after work, you get the idea), so find one which is good for you and slowly work your way into the crowd. As above, I highly reccomend you get into exercising if you aren't already. It's tedious at first, but there are so many benefits, and if you are in a similar situation to me, there is always lots of free time.

lol, I just looked up Texarkana Texas on wikipedia, and saw that it has a population of over 30,000. Where I live it's just 2,000. Oh well.

Small towns are made for having extremely dangerous and risky hobbies that you would never get away with if there were any neighbors or cops patrolling around. Go nuts. I can't believe your first reaction is "learn to play golf."

texarkana's where we drive through when coming from Illinois on our way to college station, and every time we get there its always like YUP WE'RE IN TEXAS cuz the drivers are so rude lol

your optimism is encouraging. I wouldn't try TOO too hard to meet people, but don't like sit around and do nothing. try to keep yourself entertained and good things will come.

also see if they have a club area, those are always nice, though not the 6th street that you're used to

From what I've heard, Texarkana is one of those cities like Warner Robbins, Georgia, or West Chester, or Grosse Point Michigan. What I'm getting at is it has a lot of rich retired people. But I've also heard that Texarkana is one of those "texas football" towns, so high school football is probably a religion in that city, iirc.

Maybe helping others makes him happy? It's not entirely impossible to believe.

I feel I owe society for everything that I have currently. I mean, I walked out of college with no debt and a great job. Definitely wouldnt be possible if I didnt get help. Time to pay it forward in my opinion.

Thanks for the advice guys. Hopefully I can find a small group of people that play golf or tennis and I can hang out with them.
