Dating
I want to start dating/having a relationship but I'm not sure how to meet people. I'm 21 and never been involved with anyone before. Any suggestions?
I'm not much of a club/late-night person

Don't get into a relationship for the sake of getting into a relationship, it's gonna be forced and the chemistry won't be there. I say date around a bit, meet new/cool people, and if something happens organically then that's great! Online dating is the thing now, set up a POF account or something.

Remember there's no rush, everyone has their own time.

Definitely agree with James. Just do stuff you like doing, chill with friends, and eventually you will meet a person with similar interests and you could hit it off. 
But if you really want a relationship, like now, you could definitely try Plenty of Fish, match.com, lavalife, eHarmony, eVow, etc.

My best friend uses PoF a lot. He has pretty much messaged everyone on that website and has had tons of dates. It definitely seems like a great way to meet people quickly. Though he always complained that the chemistry was never there with most of them so he had to go through many many people before he would meet someone worth hanging on to. Good luck!

There's plenty of social activities that are great to meet people. Social gatherings, work, school, the gym, sports activities, anywhere can be a great place to meet someone if you're open enough. Just put yourself out there.

I believe he was referring to a potential mate being composed mostly of Carbon. That most certainly is a great suggestion, everyone knows those inorganic Sulfuric heathens that live on the other side of town are a complete drain on this city.
albalks, Amaryll, Bug324, doppelganger, drpatel, jim1, Mahratta, Phantom, Swampis, Vessi, Yogurt

Jeeze, we don't need to be so literal right? It's a figure of speech, like the term "let things happen naturally." Simmer down!
