Where are all the young professionals?

[thistle]

I've lived in St. Mary's County for a year now and I can't figure out where all of the other young professionals are. Does everyone move up to DC on the weekends? I'm a mid 20s engineer and I've found it's very hard to make friends down here. Anyone else in the same boat?

Welcome, I used to be of the engineering type around that area but I moved due to the development of technology in another area. Now, I drink beer and fart all day. But get paid for it.
There really are only about a handful of intellectuals on the boards that you would want to meet for some sort of discussion. Most of the women are somewhat loose... So, you'll probably get lucky if nothing else.
Remaining in D.C is probably your best bet and if nothing else moving to another area may work out for you as well.

There was an article in one of the local papers a few years back that talked about the 20 something single crowd or lack of. Most young proffessionals move out of the area. They move back when they have families.

There are certainly more professional men than women.. but they are certainly around.
This IS a hard area to be young/single in though.
