'Cause talking about what makes you uncomfortable is more comfortable than talking about what makes us uncomfortable.

And at some point, you'll start to enjoy a drink just for the taste of it, itself. Instead of craving an ice-cold Coca Cola or glass of lemonade on a hot day, you might crave a certain beer. Drinking isn't just about getting drunk/buzzed. But if you don't like that stuff, that's fine, too.
If you're not willing/interested in going out of your way to meet chicks and just want to find those who are interested in what interests you, you can follow that direction, too. I used to bike a lot in grad school. OK, so maybe I didn't meet so many girls out climbing the fireroads in the foothills of Pasadena. But I certainly had the opportunity to meet random chicks riding my bike on the bike path between the Palisades and Palos Verdes. (Middle of the week was best.) They were out riding bikes and roller blading, too. If you want a chick who races cars, well, you're largely out of luck. But heck, show up at autocrosses or PCA events and see what happens. Unless you serendipidously assist some stranded female motorist on the side of Mul ( a la Joe), you're not likely to pick up any chicks strafing the corners of the hills of the 'bu with your dad riding shotgun.
