I'm thinking about going back to school. Maybe I could at least meet new people and make some new friends.

It can be. Be sure and take some class that is a fun group activity, like rowing or kayaking because just going to class and leaving, it's not always easy to meet people, especially in these times when everyone has their nose buried in a smartphone and is more or less blocking out live encounters.

 

When you first go to your activity class, be proactive about choosing who you want to hang out with. My sister gave me this advice when I went to college, and it was good advice: Whoever you first meet in college is usually the crowd you end up with, so don't just let it randomly happen -- look around and choose.
