I used to always take the blame for all the problems I have ever had in life. I still take the blame for some of them but now I have come to realize that many of my problems are because of other people. Sometimes I just laugh at it--today's society, some people's mentality and actions. Of course, I also have been blessed enough to meet a few good people but they are just that A FEW!! I would love to have a better social life. I am not trying to sound concieted because I'm pretty sure I have my own flaws as well, but overall I am outgoing, respectful and get along with everyone. Most people rely on me, come to me for advice and many of them consider me a "great friend". However, the problem is that I don't see it them way. I try to brush this to the side, and believe me I try my best to see the best in people but there is just too much to overlook sometimes. I would like to meet some new people. Where or how can I meet them?

looking for people through web sites

that people in your interested places

people on your work

or great chances

all of ways above are not perfect methods to find people

but the best way to have a good people close to you is depend to you

try to define your self to the society, Invert your points of view

do good things and see who appreciate your jobs.

let people to choose you

find the ways to attract every one to get to you.

thanks

I'm in the same boat! I don't have a lot of friends, but the ones I do have are pretty great. I have a VERY difficult time meeting new friends because I work from home and am somewhat shy at first.

 

But I think I'm an awesome person too :) and would love to add a few more friends to my life.

 

Unfortunately I've always gotten the same advice (i.e. take a class) - well that doesn't work! I've taken classes and the other "students" were either WAAAYY older than me or people I generally wouldn't hang out with. (scruffy, stink of smoke, etc.)

I completely feel the same way! :o I really think making friends is one of the hardest things for me to do, simply because A) I'm really shy and not the type of person to put myself out there and B) Most people are just annoying and not worth it. Not to say that I'm perfect, I know I'm not.. but still.. It's SO hard to meet new people! I always end up feeling like the odd ball out, even at old jobs & such. I think I kinda write myself off most of the time, and I hate that about myself...

 

I really think the best way to meet people is through other people... like a close friend or a significant other. Other than that, I feel like it's just luck... :bunny:

 

I really only have a handful of people in my life that I consider friends, but I feel like the amount has dwindled over the years... for no apparent reason. Just do what you can... I'm sure there are some people like us out there :laugh:!! Good luck.

Yeah, I agree. And I think a lot of people get busy in their lives with their jobs and families and put "friend" time at the bottom of their priorities. That is what I've noticed anyway.
