Yes I'm a young person (25), but I'll be damned if I can find a girl around here.

I live in a small town, population is around 500. We have a few other towns close by, but it's a good hour drive to any "big" town. I've dated a few girls over the years, but it never worked out.

It seems like everyone around here is just waiting for the next party. Hanging out around here is getting a 30 pack and sitting around drinking. I like a good beer, a good beer not the nasty swill most everyone around here drink. But these people just have nothing to talk about, I really could care less about what Becky did with Jill's boyfriend last week.

The other major problem I find is that we have a fairly large drug problem. It's kept mostly underground, but it's far reaching. I was at the local store a few nights ago and overheard a conversation about trading pills and some other things for a puppy. Cocaine is big around here, although not as big as it was thanks to the economy. And we had a meth problem a few years ago, and we would again if it was easy enough to get.

Now I'm by no means perfect, but I'm just not into the partying and the mindless talk. I'm not into getting shitfaced every time I can, or getting all messed up on a bunch of drugs. I have no problem with smoking a little cannabis every now and then, or having a few beers and some good Irish whiskey. I have a general dislike for party's, the party's round here only seem to be attended by idiots.

I guess what I'd want in a woman is this, as a minimum.
Not into partying all the time.
Does not do Cocaine or pills.
Idea of a good time is not drinking beer till she passes out or gets taken advantage of or both.
Has a brain in her head, I guess this would follow if she didn't do the rest.

Geez...
and I thought that was just here in north Phoenix, where I live now....
Drugs and booze!
Maybe, you can find a nice, lady of your age that has recently been discharged from the Military?
They seem to know the differences in what is and what is NOT good!
Disciplined people seem to have their heads on square!
Most of the ex Militayr women I've met are awesome!
Sometime a bit bossy, but I'm in an age category where the women are usually retired form the services!
So, sometimes you get a drill sergeant, and sometimes you get a Major!
(OUCH!)
Good luck, and seek the ladies you want, in a place they hang out!

There was an article on the web a couple of days ago...it said dating was out and "hooking up" was in. I HAD to read further to discover that "hooking up" meant meaningless sex with no strings attached, I guess with someone you don't even know.
Back when I was young that was considered immoral, illogical, indecent and illegal, nowadays you can add downright dangerous and courting disater from STDs and /or serial killers. Way to go girls, you've certainly come a long way. Equal rights and all...

Exactly, I mean personally I don't care what girls want to do. But it's not my thing, I'm not into that type of deal.

I left my hometown 20+ years ago when I joined the military to get away from the same thing...drinking and partying. I knew there had to be more to life than that.
Now when I go back, the same people that were doing it then are still doing it now, and they are jobless, lazy, and half stupid from doing it so long.
It sounds like you have a good head on your shoulders, so keep looking and don't give in to the peer pressure.
