I guess this is a good place to start as any.
Hi! My name's Andrei (which is Romanian for Andrew), I'm a 23 year old guy living in my hometown of Constanta (which is a small city by the Black Sea).
This feels a bit awkward. I guess I joined these forums since I'm trying to fix my blatant inability to talk to people and to find a cure to my loneliness. I'm a computer science university graduate , with a job I somehow landed thanks to an acquaintance I made during university. My interests tend to be fairly varied, I enjoy learning more and reading about.. well... just about everything really, from martial arts, literature, philosophy, history, music, movies, technology, places to travel, anything as long as it's interesting and worth reading.
Thing is, because I'm inept at talking to people, I've kind of fallen into a routine of waking up - going to work - coming back - reading a bit then going to sleep, without much else going on in between. I'd like to be able to break that routine by learning to talk to people and getting over my crippling fear of socializing, particularly with girls. (Yes, yes, I'm the extremely shy guy who can't talk to anybody, girls included; my tongue ties up and I get that sinking feeling in my stomach that I'll make a fool of myself). Maybe I can start here.
Oh, forgot. Since I'm a comp-sci graduate, of course that would mean I enjoy a good video game, but I also have a dog which takes me away from the computer; I find it refreshing to walk him since it clears my mind from the clutter of work-life.
Sorry if I've been a bit too honest! And I'm hoping I can talk to as many new people here.
Andrei
