AloneAgain87 Posted June 6, 2012 Posted June 6, 2012 I don't know what else to do, so I decided to vent/ask for your opinions. I have been having a really hard time making friends or even finding a girl. when I was in high school I was really into the partying scene and I lived that lifestyle for awhile but have chosen to live a better life. So I cut contact with just about all of my friends and moved and everything was going well until I fell on hard times and had to move back home. Now I'm stuck. I can't find anyone friend wise. I keep telling myself its going to get better but it doesn't. I just don't get it I'm a decent guy but no matter what I try here I sit. It's been over 14 months and I'm at my wits end. I just don't know what to do...
crazylove Posted June 7, 2012 Posted June 7, 2012 Can you join any meetup groups locally? I recently moved to Australia, and was in the same position. I've joined some groups from meetup.com, and have started getting a social life at last! Takes a long time to strike up friendships though. Sadly, not too many people seem to want to once you're older, people seem to keep themselves to themselves, or can't be bothered making any effort.
CopingGal Posted June 7, 2012 Posted June 7, 2012 I tried meetup.com. It seems nice, unless you live in a tiny crappy town like I do where nothing ever takes place. There was absolutely nothing for my town on that.
crazylove Posted June 7, 2012 Posted June 7, 2012 Yeah, it is better if you live near a city or large town i guess. Could always start your own?!
Tp101 Posted June 8, 2012 Posted June 8, 2012 I understand about finding a woman you want to love. It is really hard to find someone like that. I have friends to hangout with but just not close friends. Yet I still feel lonely. I just want that good woman.

I just don't know what to do... I'm curious, exactly what have you tried doing to make friends within these 14 months since you got back home?
gbadboy Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 Your post really hurt to read. Are you looking for friends of the opposite sex? You have lots of friends on here! Online is the a good way to meet people....Just remember, when developing a friendship, try to learn as much as you can about that person rather than go on about yourself. SHow them that you have a interest in their life! Sometimes, if we meet people and all we do is talk about ourselves - it turns them off (not saying you do this, but just in case you are - that's some advice) Wishing you all the luck out there - there are good friends out there in the online world - just be patient and be kind.
