Moving from a town of 10,000 to 1.5 mil

[nmartinez12443]

Hello I am 26 years old single male and am about to go to Austin Texas from a small town in north illinois. I am going to be teaching 5th grade in an elementary school. I will know no one until I get to school in August (which is 97% female).

How will life for me change after spending 25 years living at home and in such a small town?

Do you recommend any particular ways of meeting people since I will know no one, but when school starts I will have a ton of women who I can befriend, but probably not date?

Thanks for the help just wanna get some information.

Well, look at it outside of just you being a teacher.

You'll be in a bigger town - more stuff to do and places to meet people.

Not only this, but I personally feel much more "at east" when I'm NOT in my home town, since you're moving it'll give you a chance to go to this new town and really be yourself, since no one knows you.

I think it'll work out great for you, it would for me anyway, I'd give anything to just move to a new place and start over haha..

I've been in similar situations. Sometimes it can be hard to adjust, but i've found it easier to meet people in a bigger city.

People in bigger cities usually have a different mentality overall. It seems like there is more freedom in a large city than a small town where everyone knows you. Anyway, i hear Austin is a pretty cool place to live. Music, nightlife ect.

You can try by hitting up the bars Austin is known for the nightlife... Since your 26, try taking a class at the university to meet more people. Join the local pua lair, join a gym, talk to people when your out, etc...

Be social! You picked a good place to move to. I've heard nothing but good things about Austin!

Be seen as good with the female teachers. Everything else will fall into place.

be careful in larger cities though, you have to be more proactive at making friends

i live in large city of 4mil or so, i could be out all day in the busiest area of the city and not say a word if I chose.

Especially if you are as huge and intimidating as me or generally if you are a male.

my mother is also a primary school teacher she says that male teachers are all pvssies at her work (not in those words ), my theory; because they hang around women all day they start to become one, so make sure you keep check on that.

How does one find out where the local "pua lair" is?

search your city + lair in google

they should have occasional n00b nights for the uninitiated

Hey buddy,

I experienced this not too long ago, I moved from a smaller town in Michigan to Los Angeles.

Personally, I loved it, there were just so many more people to meet. It's a great world out there, so many people to meet, so much to accomplish, so many experiences to be had.

Here's the deal though, the city is what you make out of it. Get out and meet people, sign up for different recreational classes, go out to clubs/bars, what have you.

Build your social circle first, once you've done that, start worrying about women. I think a lot of PUAs have issues with this, building a good social group is so much more important in my personal 2 cents. In PUA terms, it gives you social proof and it also
