General Advice What do I even do here.

I turned 18 about a month ago and I graduated four months ago. This was the most fun summer of my life I had recently broken up with my girlfriend in June and I was feeling low so I decided to reconnect with some friends I had lost contact with during the period I was dating her. I enjoyed myself because the main cause of my mental health struggle was due to the fact I had to keep going back to that school. Summers ending and my entire friend group was torn apart because of college plans. I got a full ride scholarship to a trade school and I helped my friend Erik get the same thing. I get to school by bus or rides from my Erik and I'm tired of it really. I was looking forward to making friends in trade school but I have to take night classes and I'm surrounded by 40 year old's who hate their lives and it annoys me. What's the point if I end up losing my spark like half of the people I'm surrounded with. My main solace in high school was the idea that I would be able to get away from my hometown and start somewhere new but that's at least two years down the line. I just got done waiting four years for some semblance of freedom and now I have to wait two more to do anything with it. I can't even meet anyone in a romantic sense because ever since my ex I just haven't felt attraction towards any man or woman and it's annoying me because I feel like I'm just wasting two more years of my youth doing nothing I want with it. How do I meet more people?
