Put it this way, Anon. You're going to university, so you have a better chance at meeting more people than I did when I went to trades school out of HS. I've got a stable full-time job with alright pay, moving out is in the works once my student loans are paid off, and now the only thing missing is a possible relationship to break the complete monotony that currently is my day-to-day life. I tried to be more social by going to my brother's university club events, but ones that didn't fall on days that I worked were few and far in between, and because of all the hustle and bustle of these events I barely got to talk to anyone. However, I did learn to be more open to people, especially with my sense of humour. I hardly get invited to things unless it was with the people I was tighter with in high school, probably because those that I had considered "friends" stopped giving two shits about me unless they need specific advice from me. Now I'm way too busy with work to try and get out there and meet new people outside of RS, and as pathetic as it is to admit, I'm attempting online dating at the age of 20 (which I'll admit again is less than stellar at the moment).

tl;dr? Your chances are better than mine man, good luck. The last thing you want to do is seem awkward as your first impression. You're only 18, and I already feel like I'm 30 for christ's sake.
