It is weird. Then you buy a house, and while you may still be depressed, you're sweating your arse off outside.

But God damn it those weeds will be defeated and frick that guy next door that let's those vines reach the fence. I will not break.

Yeah I know, just saying.

I'd want to be somewhat close to home though. Gonna be spending a lot of time here during hunting season regardless

The two best and easiest places to meet people in the same walk of life as you are and will always be:
1) church
2) bars
Most people go to one or both of those. Personally, i would recommend being active I'm both, but that's not what this thread is about. Pick a local bar or two. Become a regular. Yes, it will become routine, which is one thing you complain about, but a new face will walk through the door on any given day. People are still out there. How you meet them will change.

Im actually looking for a house now. The one thing I won't miss is my upstairs neighbor thinking he's the next skrillix at 2am

The worst

This is also the stage in life when you learn how to go over there and be like "Dude, we've all been there and drunkenly listened to Wagon Wheel on full blast, but please not on a Tuesday."

It comes with age

I just miss the women. I keep getting better looking and they all start getting fat and wrinkly. I don't like. The amount of 30 year old fine trim is slim.

Honestly, pick something that isn't homogeneous. Find a city that has lots of immigration into it. The scene will be more open to outsiders.

You move to somewhere like Birmingham and you're asking for a rough time making friends

Whoa now.....women can still look good at 30


You just have to find the ones that actually take care of their bodies....not the chicks who never worked out and ate like pigs in their 20s

i miss the shite out of it but im living at home and 2/3 of my friends are still in college sending out snapchats and shite of them partying and having fun together.

one of the few times i wish social media didnt exist. would be much easier to handle if i didnt know what was going on.

Yeah, I feel like I'd need atleast one person I know if I moved away. I couldn't just show up to a bar alone. I'm not shy but I'm not THAT outgoing either

You basically trade off having lots of more money to spend for having annoyingly high amounts of responsibility.

You miss the days of only having truly 15 hours of obligation a week....and even then it would be optional.

Atlanta, Houston, Dallas, Austin and San Antonio are all within around 7 hours of so from Baton Rouge. Of those, I'd choose Austin... You probably know people living there now... And even if you don't, it would be easy to find some LSU transplants.

ETA-Atlanta is a little over 7 hours, and Nashville is about 8.5 hours away...

That did make it tough. Hell, my Houston friends seem to be still raging 7 yeats later and I'm over here in New Orleans being all jealous of it.

That stuff can warp perception.

You'll meet people at work. You'll find one to go grab a beer or dinner with. You'll ask about social clubs in town or for work. You'll join one of them. You'll meet the people you like, you'll leave the club and hang out with the ones you like.

Or you'll run into people at a bar, become regulars together, and see each other on Tuesdays.


Your neighbors will suck or they won't. You'll eventually ask for their help for something. They'll ask for yours too. You'll repay them with dinner.

You'll meet people at church functions if you go and continue to hang out with them outside of them if they don't suck.



I think that about covers it.

You join meetup groups for any hobbies you have. Online dating if you are single. You make new friends at work. Join that city's local LSU alumni association and meet people there.


You just have to go for it really. Worst case......you hate it and move back. Best case....you make an awesome new life for yourself.

Alternatively, you can...well...you know, learn to like people for who they are and realize that flat stomachs and big breasts don't make women nicer, cooler, or better people.



Not that I would complain about if they were those things AND eye candy.

I miss not having bills.

I love making money and being around people that actually have a life plan.

I had an amazing time in college that I will have to work my arse off to compete with.

After going through a lifetime quota of bars, parties, football and road trips the only thing next is marriage, anniversaries and children.

I would have to say I would prefer the former.

It seems like no matter how much you do, the first few months will be a little slow, socially at least.
