You're right, you have to figure yourself out first and foremost before you can open up to anyone else. When that person comes along, it'll seem easy. You won't have to try hardly at all. It'll just "feel" right. Trust me, it'll happen. I wouldn't tie yourself down to an actual time, like when you're 30, you may miss someone coming along before then. Because when you least expect it, it'll happen.

Well, yeah, I don't mean to say alcohol is a problem-solver, but I've found that the more I know about women, the more I like beer Nah, go have one or two nights of get-over-it sloppy drunkeness and be done with it. I agree with the perceived ease of a relationship. I keep hearing that you have to work and work hard at them, and sure, maybe that's true in the long run, but if it feels like a real chore for an extended period of time early on, something ain't right. As for the 30 thing, I did set one caveat: no dating anyone NEW, meaning exes are fair game Not that I'd expect that to happen, but there's something to be said for test driving. And no, I won't completely shut people out, but it'll have to be easy (by your context, not the usual context)
