Let me see if I can give this a shot:
1. Nature...have you tried it?
2. Meetups and other social gatherings around various interests and trades
3. OkCupid, Tinder, etc.
4. ...a job? Jira? One of a number of existing mechanisms for accountability?
There you go! I found game over for you!
As someone who didn't go to college until their late 20s, I would've foregone the whole thing if I could've done it online. I think people overvalue the "go to college after high school" thing just because it's become such an accepted practice, but it's a normality fallacy.
