So recently, I've been in contact with some people and others have been in contact with me about trying to set things up. This usually ends up not working out because of some detail, but at least it is starting to happen.

Maybe with the summer coming up, more people will be free to hang out and do stuff. Recently, we've changed office buildings where I work, so I don't have the space to wrestle and I'm not networked with people that have mats and the like.

I've been checking through people in my area and messaging as new ones pop up and so on. It sort of prompts the question for me: *how long did you guys talk to a person on average before you could actually have a match*?

I've seen some places where it takes days and others where it takes years. I wonder if that is a location thing or what. Who knows, right?

Location can make it tough. I'm in china, where there aren't many guys doing this and those Chinese who want to often fear the culture and language barrier. Could u get to a wrestling party weekend in Atlanta or somewhere?

I'm about an hour north of there. The thing is, I don't have a car and that can make things hard in terms of actually meeting people.

How long does it take? Depends on the guy. I've had guys that I met the same day I made initial contact with, while others, well, let's just say there are still some guys I haven't met who say they want to someday. Fortunately, I've been doing it long enough and am able to host where I have semi regulars. Most guys I wrestle now are spur-of-the-moment matches. In fact, I don't plan many long term any more, especially with new guys. They tend to forget.
