Hey guys,

First off, I'm not a complete downer, but I am a complete introvert who values being alone tremendously.

Life for me is like
1. Go to work and see people, expend alot of "social energy". Feels like work at first but after a few hours I get fully in the mood of talking and can be pretty extroverted/charming while my energy lasts.
2. Come home and work on my art or see my best friend (but even then feel the need to get the fuck alone after a few hours)
3. Weekend comes, I see my same old group of buddies for the first day, and spend the other day alone recharging, usually best done in nature. Sometimes we'll hit up a club, but I find them stressful and can't really enjoy myself unless I'm pretty drunk.

My life, other than being in the outdoors, is pretty isolated. I only make new friends through my workplace, and made a few friends/met a few girls that were customers but that's my only source of being social. I've made out with 3 girls that I work with, but beyond that can't seem to have any luck whatsoever because I always grew up isolating myself.

I fear that one day I won't work in such a public/customer upfront job and end up with even bigger issues. Other than my small close-knit group of friends I lose contact of others quite quickly. Sending the odd message on facebook feels forced usually (especially with years in between contact with some of them and a loose relationship to begin with)

Other than hiking and music, and soon-to-be school, there isn't a whole lot to me. When I get the energy I can be pretty extreme and fun, but I can't just bring it out on a whim.

My work schedule is also extremely hard to hang with people on weekdays, and I believe its one of my biggest issues (I work afternoons->midnight)

How would you guys go about changing your life (including keeping in touch with people, meeting girls).
I'm a self-proclaimed overanalyzer, and I know this is pretty robotic, but sometimes learning to be social through words can put things into perspective for me.

My guesses:

-Get a new job because getting social time from the morning up until noon is pretty fucking hard
-Once have new said job, asking random people on facebook if they want to get together and hang.
-Once friendships are established a little more, ask these friends if they're going out to a bar or whatever on a friday (iv worked every friday for about 2 years now)

Even then I don't see much new situations for meeting chicks coming up other than in slow trickles. I dunno, I'm sure I'm just overthinking it as usual but I would like a reliable source of constant meeting of girls.
