I really hope it does, but some days it feels tough and lonely.
Prospects will open up once you get to the U of Az campus. In the meantime, look at it this way; for now, without the distractions of dating, breakups, etc., you're able to focus on your schoolwork and work. After all the turmoil you went through before starting college, this is probably the best thing for you--a quiet, calm spell. Dating doesn't automatically result in a happy relationship, or any relationship, you know. It can be messy, or frustrating. As you may have gathered from reading some of the threads, or even just the thread titles here from time to time, it can be a bit of a mine field out there. Count your blessings.

Don't assume it will because for many it won't. Best to not think about it and be a best friend to yourself. When it comes down to it you are the only one you can rely on.
I've had more problems in dealing with people who are very religious. Not saying they are all like that but they are some of the worst people I have dealt with in my life.

The University of Arizona isn't happening. I'm officially a student of Arizona State University, but I don't even go to their campus, the local college here has become a satelite campus of ASU, so not much has changed. But I am very glad that it is a quiet spell right now.
Maybe I am blessed, I still get a longing feeling though.

Sorry, I meant ASU. Didn't you say you're in a program through which you'll eventually transfer to ASU, though?
I assume you're in Bisbee or Sierra?? Just be patient, finish school and move to Tucson or San Diego when you're all done. Much bigger sea and many many more fish in those cities. Smelling good (good breath and using a nice smelling soap) and having good muscle definition doesnt hurt either.

I'm already in ASU, I've got barely over a year until I get my BA, this is the first time the University has tried making the local community college a satelite campus.
And, I've been thinking of doing Graduate school after this.
Location can play a big role in your happiness. Many times, people don't fit in and enjoy where they are and it can be detrimental. Find your location where people have the same interests, values and lifestyle. If you stuck there for now, just get all you can out of it and make the best of it. But plot your move out.
College is going fine, but work takes up everything else, still haven't dated. The friends I run around with are rednecky drinker types, neither of them have jobs, one of them has no trouble drunkenly getting girls, but the other is brainy in his own way so we get along.
The only thing counting as fun in this backwater little burg is going to wild parties and bonfires out in the middle of nowhere.
If you want to change your life style, start with getting some new friends, ones who can be a good influence on the people around them. Redneck drunks who are not employed, are not a good influence on anyone. Find out where the younger generation hangs out and go there to possibly meet a few of the women in your area, they surely don't hang out at wild parties all the time...
