What do I do?

So long story short, I moved out to Seattle with a girlfriend 2 years ago. We broke up about 2 months ago and I know nobody in this city. I work a decent paying job for being a 20 year old, but don't want to do what I'm doing forever. I feel as if it's a bit late to stay in dorms and meet people at a university, but I would like to do some schooling of some sort. I just wanna meet people and figure out what to do with my life. If anyone has some meaningful suggestions or anything I would be happy to consider what you guys have to say

It is definitely not too late to go to a university and stay in on campus housing. Age really isn't a big deal, I've taken classes with people in their thirties and forties. Now they didn't live on campus because that would be weird for their age. You, on the other hand, are just fine.

Otherwise, maybe look into a trade school.

It's really easy to get involved with groups on campus as well. Just put yourself out there.

JAHpow pegged it. You are definitely not too old to go to college and have a great experience. I had a room mate who was 25 when I was a Junior. He totally chilled and partied more than I did. Apply to college, get accepted, and start asap. Do it!

You've lived in Seattle for two years now, but don't know anyone? How does that happen?

Really though. Go to school and pursue something you are interested in or is going to be practical. You're never too old to build knowledge and/or skills. Also, maybe make more of an effort to get to know people than you have over the last two years?

This. Seattle is a fucking sick place to live. Don't worry about it man, just go to school and study something you're interested in and have a good time
