Lipitor11 Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 I'm in my 30's and I don't have alot of friends, I do make an effort to talk to people, but some aren't interested in a friendship, etc, etc. What are some places? Fitness classes, volunteering, church? 1
pink_sugar Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 I'm in my 30's and I don't have alot of friends, I do make an effort to talk to people, but some aren't interested in a friendship, etc, etc. What are some places? Fitness classes, volunteering, church? I was also asking this before I saw your post. I've been introverted most of my life, so I only have a few close friends from grade school. It also doesn't help that I am in a solo role at work.
AnneT1985 Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 What a great question. I suggest any place that enriches you. If you enjoy church, a fitness class, an art class etc then by all means join because you will find some like minded people. Always a great place to start. You could also augment that by passively doing nice little gestures for people if you're shy or an introvert- for example bake your neighbor some cookies and drop them at their door or offer a hand with them moving etc. I wish you the best of luck! xx 1
d0nnivain Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Service organizations like the Elks, the Moose, the Lions, the Knights of Columbus, the Kiwanis etc. are all great places to make friends & do good in your community. Getting involved in groups that serve your industry / profession can also be a good place to meet like minded people. Joining a sports team, pursuing a hobby & going to the events. Volunteer to work on a political campaign Alumni Associations offer connections too. 1
mrs rubble Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 The OLD site I used to be on was a friendship site also, I attended several events and met some really great people, and made lots of new friends.
