make more friends

Untitled  — 3 years ago

I have tons of friends, let me say first of all, and they are truly wonderful friends, but NONE of them are in ‘real’ life. They all live in other states and countries and I have never met them :( I want to meet some local friends in my area to be able to go out with and have fun, get out of the house with and be crazy with. I am not ‘anti’ social but I am very shy, and haven’t had much experience being around ‘strangers’. I hope to meet at least one true friend in ‘real’ life one day :) Always looking for more online friends as well-to chat with, I don’t have too many of those either!

I totally understand.

Most of my friends have either moved or are going to be moving this summer. It is really depressing saying goodbye to all those friends you knew, but it just leaves an opportunity to be bold and make friends with new people. What I suggest is to get involved with people who do things you like do. Say you like painting. Look to see if you could take up community art classes. It might be a little expensive, but definetely worth it. Or maybe you play an instrument. Sometimes more upbeat churches take on some musicians to play with them.Or get involved with Big Brothers and Sisters program, or find a job you would enjoy, or even get to know your neighbors. But whatever you like to do, no doubt there is someone around to enjoy your company. (P.S. If you go see neighbors, bring cookies. :) ) P.P.S. I can be an I-net friend, too. Talk to you soon.
