u/Zestyclose_Sector_30

I'll start by saying some things about myself, I'm 30 and living in a small city with almost 0 options for activities or hobbies except like gyms, a cinema and lots of cafeterias, basically no way of meeting new people except for approaching strangers or meeting through friends.

I have almost 0 dating experiences and these are mostly me being rejected in the end or ghosted, I've never been in a relationship either, I've tried dating apps, friend apps, paid subscriptions, but no luck, I'm 1.70cm so not tall for a man and I wouldn't call myself ugly, mostly average. And I understand these apps are primarily made for looks and appearances.

I'm overweight and I'm trying to currently lose weight, I've been going to therapy for 7 years which has helped me a lot, but the thing is I lack a lot of experience and skills to actively meet new people let alone girls.

My mood sometimes gets depressive so I look gloomy and don't talk much, this has been one of the reasons (main reason) that I've lost my IRL group of friends cause I was ruining the vibe as they said, and this is also a reason why I don't open up to anyone or have close friendships, they can't stand me being like this and not always active or happy or idk.

I live alone, have 2 cats and a stable albeit basic income job, I'm trying to find new hobbies and activities to keep myself occupied.

Growing up I never learned the proper skills to socialize and make mistakes to become better, so I need to learn them at this age, bad parenting and such.

In the end my question is how can I build my confidence to approach new people, let's say at the gym, either men or women for friendship or dating, when I think about what to say to a stranger I can never find the words, sometimes I might manage a small banter like a complement or ask a question but I feel like 8 creep people out.

Hello everyone, these are mostly from Speccy and from what I remember

Computer Type: Desktop

CPU: RYZEN 7 7800X3D

Motherboard: MSI MAG B650 TOMAHAWK WIFI (MS-7D75) (AM5)

Description of Original Problem: At random points in the day the GPU hangs up, the screen freezes then after some seconds it turns black and then it goes back to normal, this happens when I play some long sessions but not always, I have adrenaline and latest drivers. The message I get is Driver Timeout with no other information as to what happened, I have the card for about a year maybe less, my temps are around 60-66c when I play, so not much. What should I do to troubleshoot this? Could this be a hardware problem?

Troubleshooting: I don't know how to troubleshoot this particular problem

Hello everyone, I've travelled around Europe quite a lot but its gonna be the first time I'll attempt to travel solo. For my first time I feel Europe is a safe choice and then if I make it and have fun/feel comfortable I'll organize something in Asia or North Africa.

Which destinations you believe are more fun and interesting to visit? Should I stay in hostels to meet new people?

My goals are to sightsee, visit museums - festivals - local attractions and hidden places/places in general and also meet some new people as co-travelers or locals maybe in some events taking place.

I have been to: Italy (Venice), Belgium (Brussels and one more city I dont remember its name), England (London, Manchester), Turkey (Ayalik), Malta (Valetta and Mdina), Czechia (Prague). I want to see something different and wouldn't be opposed to revisiting these places.

I wanna go to a Scandinavic place or somewhere like Spain or Portugal, also Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Norway, The Netherlands, Scotland, Ireland, Poland, Austria/Germany. Of these which would you suggest?

I'm open to many places.

Thanks for any advice in advance, I'm also from Greece if that matters in any capacity.

P.S I'll probably travel around Christmas/New Years and plan to reserve places and travel as soon as I can to be more affordable and cheaper

EDIT: Budget 500-600€ preferably closer to 500€ for 5 days, everything included like air travel, trains etc and accomodation
