Hey everyone i'll just get straight into it. I've been single for a good year and a half now and would really like to meet someone. So I've just started my 2nd year at uni literally today and so i'm wondering how I just get myself out there and meet people? I go out to bars and things but I find it difficult to start talking to new people. I'm also hoping to join some sports clubs this year but again I find it difficult talking to new people. I feel like this is my biggest issue that is stopping me from meeting new people. I'm usually fairly confident with anything but I always end up getting nervous when trying to meet and talk to new people. So if anyone could give me any kind of advice on how to get myself talking to people and places to meet new people I'd really appreciate it! :)
