I was going to say go to uni, you'll get your degree and meet tons of girls and people, but I was beaten to it:

if I learned something about the internet in my last 10 years being online, than it's that strangers give the best and most unbiased advice because they don't give a shit about what you could want to hear. I would say I think you are right, but to be honest I *know* you are. I guess I don't lack insight or answers, but someone that kicks my ass to where it needs to go.

EDIT: You are right about clubs, but I usually end up there because my friends drag me there to teach them some dancing or to "party". But knowing where you should not search sadly does not imply knowing where you instead should go.

Maybe thats the real question. Where do you meet the girl of your life? Those ppl I know who could answer that all told me it was kinda random, so no real help.


honestly university and your work place are pretty good places.
go get your masters and look for someone there, 2 birds with one stone.



Moving for some time is a good idea too. Heh, this is one instance where the language barrier would actually help you. :D

I prefer to meet new people is a private party (well, as I'm younger than you, I can't give you much other thought on that, don't know how much is the age difference a factor), in someone's apartment/house, where there are some friends I know, and a few of their friends that I don't know. At parties like that, you can actually talk (opposed to the clubs), there is a relaxed atmosphere, and because you have mutual friends adds to the secureness of interaction (and additional topics to talk about). It adds more of a private feeling, people feel closer to each other. And if you find the new people unsatisfying, you can always ignore them and talk to your old friends. Anyways, I think the best generally known way to meet people is trough other people/friends.

There are tons of people that feel empty at some point of their lives etc.; that should, for some reason, be comforting. :D
Jokes aside, I feel pretty much the same, a lot of things people say (their views) are predictable, boring, narrow and black&white. That is one of the reasons I feel empty sometimes, as it's hard to find people that are not like that - and even some of the people that aren't like that, are under the disguise, so it's hard to tell them apart.
Lack of an exciting, stimulating and genuine discussion with someone (can be someone likeminded, but not necessarily) is something that all people need, but for some people it's harder to find, since there are less people like that I guess. The gauss curve is a bitch sometimes!

It's hard to reply to you with something new that will help you, since you know best what works for you - and you already answered your own unasked questions in the opening post. What most people can do is extract the things that seem most important (and promising) to you from that post. You're already aware of it all (although maybe not directly), you're just kinda "using" us and this blog as a lever to move yourself forward, to give you the starting kick, as it's hard to kick oneself on the backside! So this is great, you've made one step forward, now keep moving!

I'll say the good old general advice: Keep yourself busy for the most of the day (possibly with something at least a bit stimulating), eat well, do keep your body in shape (RUN and strech, not just weightlifting, health in general, including something stimulating for the brain), go to sleep/wake up in time, take some time to rest/relax every day, and hang out with some people - the rest WILL fall in place. Some of these things are very basic, but a lot of people don't realize just how much effect they have and how important they are.

I should stop using smilies so much! :D And exclamation marks!!

Hope this somehow helps. Cheers.

PS: Nice dancemoves! :D

Thanks for the long reply quirinus. Well, now being sober again I can admit that you are probably right about me knowing what to do and just asking for some approval and momentum in the right direction.

Least I can do is to keep you guys updated
Someday, you’re going to fuck up so magnificently, so ambitiously, so overwhelmingly that the sky will light up and the moons will spin and the gods themselves will shit comets with glee. And I just hope I’m still around to see it.

Hey everyone,

well it has been a while and (as i promised) i wanted to give you an update on how things turned out in my life. A litte more than one month after I wrote this post I came back from Spain to celebrate my birthday an arange some last things in Germany. In these 2 weeks i got a new job (which turned out to be great, well payed and just 5 minutes from where i live) and met someone, who turned out to be just the person i was so sure did not even exist.

Since my initial rant was pretty long I want my update to be worthy to both the post and the changes in my life, I'll leave you for now with the announcement of an update in the next week and a picture of my girl:

Thanks for all your cheering words and advice back then, they sure did play their part in what happened.

Life is great!
