i live in colorado and am fairly young, and spent a good part of the last three years wandering and trying to find myself. i've explored a lot of alternative healing, david's site, other sites, and so on. what surprises me is how infrequently i actually run into other people with whom i share any sort of spiritual connection. it seems like people are either much older than me, much younger, or completely uninterested. i even go to college and most people there are uninterested in meeting people, being more concerned with their studies. i would think this is a time for soul mates and soul groups to be coming together - apparently this is not the case?

i'm curious to know if this isn't my own fault (i.e. i don't get out enough to meet people) or if it's a social problem among young people in general, or if divine timing just isn't working that way, as the universe wants me sequestered for some reason. maybe isolation is part of an overall ego-dismantling process? i'm also wondering if anyone else is feeling that way, asking themselves, "i'm smart and attractive. where is everyone?" where have your paths taken you in terms of meeting people?

just wanted to say i feel the same way and i've been pondering this for a while now. the last 5 years or so especially i've been doing a lot of wandering, searching, studying, etc. and in that same time period i have been without a girlfriend. i have tried to find a girl and it's extremely difficult, in my opinion, because of the tremendous odds against it. to find a mate that not only attracts you phsyically but mentally, and after raising your mental knowledge & awareness to such higher heights than average. fate has to allign us two souls together at just the right time & even then there must be that initial spark & pleasant conversation to make it to even exchanging numbers or whatever. there doesn't seem to be any particular place for meeting intelligent, attractive, & spiritual people either. and i live in austin too, which is considered to be pretty progressive & accepting. i know that there are girls out there for me, but i just don't know where to find them. i try not to let it get me down though with that same perspective that it's so rare, if it's meant to happen then it'll happen.
