How to Make Friends
Moving is a great opportunity to have a fresh start. And so I'm making a resolution to actually make friends in our new town. Friends that aren't either family or work related. But I haven't really made friends since I was in grade school. I have a couple of close friends and that has suited me pretty well, but now that I'm moving 8 hours away from the few friends I have, its time that I make some new friends. But...how does a self employed adult make friends? I don't have co-workers or classmates, and I don't have kids yet so I can't rely on meeting other moms through kids' activities. Other than knitting groups (which can be hit or miss) where else can I find people to be my friend?

Finding friends as an adult is hard, even when you DO have co-workers. I like my job, I even like my co-workers for the most part, but well... let's just say I don't see me being friends with them outside of work!
The boyfriend and I joined a group through meetup.com that is for adults with no kids. It's been a great way for us to meet folks, go out and do things we might no do ourselves, and it's been a lot of fun overall. Maybe you could look for something similar (or any other type of group that might meet your interests) to meet people.
I'll be your friend!
