Once a Week

Here's one that I agree with, however, at this point, I do not practice:

Attend a singles or social event at least once a week. Go even if you don't want to. And go alone if you have to.

First of all, there are no "singles dances" anymore. And if there is one, you wouldn't find me at one. Losers. (I apologize if I've offended anyone.) But there are many social groups that meet for happy hours and dinners all the time. I hate going to these things alone. It makes me very uncomfortable. But rules are rules, so I'll try it out. I'll be the one at the bar drinking a Cabernet on my own.

Take up a hobby? I have extracurricular activities that I enjoy - they just aren't activities where you would normally meet men. I've been thinking of volunteering, but can't find anything that I want to do. I'm planning to go to some of these social group meetups, but I'm concerned that it will be all older, more mature people. And I just won't fit in. But I must try. If I can't stand being there, I can always leave.

Any ideas of interesting activities?
