Some necessary background: I'm 22 years old, was home schooled from ages 12 to 18, and from an abusive household where I was completely isolated from normal social interaction. College has, naturally, been extremely difficult for me socially. I have two people I consider friends (a guy and a girl), but my reputation among my acquaintances is as the socially awkward, possibly aspergic loner who cannot connect or relate but has extremely high academic ability. Yeah...

I haven't even been to a college party in my time here because until recently, I was, in fact, a complete loner who did not talk to human beings in the flesh at all (and frankly I'm getting too old for frat parties anyway), let alone spoken to girls in a sexual manner. I also suffer from hormonal acne and this has left many scars.

Seddit, I want to know if there is still any hope for me. I'm trying to locate myself in an area with alot of bars and students during winter break, and I want to at least be somewhat socially competent and manly by the time I come back in mid-January.

Transform me, please!!
