well ive been playing for maybe 2 1/2 years now, and i havent found any jam buddies yet, but it was alot like that for me for the first year and a half, then i had a HUGE downtime... maybe a month, when i just didnt want to, but the *i want to go play guitar now!* comes in waves. during the down times i try to play at least 15 mins. -> 1/2 hour every day. thats helps me get back when i get pumped up again =P

so i would say play a little bit each day so you dont lose skill while your waiting for interest to return
