Hi everyone!
Last January, just before I quit my last job, I decided to start my life from scratch. Since then, I have quit my job and found a new one I liked at a school.
Because I am a lonely man, I decided to meet lots of new people this summer. Well, it didn’t happen like I thought it would.
After being out of social media for a few years, I decided to have a try and create a new Facebook profile. My goal, was to subscribe to a few Facebook groups with people in my area interested in outdoor sports (hiking, paddleboarding …). I participated in one paddleboarding event then, for a reason unknown, Facebook blocked and deleted my profile. I tried to create another profile; same result. Maybe that‘s because I tried to subscribe to too many Facebook groups that I like.
So after I decided to not waste my time on Facebook anymore, I sent an email to an ex female friend I have not seen for four years. She is not single anymore but in the last three weeks, we have been hiking twice and had lots of fun. Unfortunately, she is not very available so I will have to meet new people and make new friends.
And that’s my struggle. I have a very hard time making new friends. I am not shy but I am an introvert. I like spending time in the outdoors and I have a few solitary hobbies (oil painting and scale modeling).
And the school I was working at a for the last months? Well, three weeks ago, I received an email from the director saying that they didn’t feel it was my place and that I am fired. So now, I have to find a new job again.
I find it hard to find and meet people without the use of social media. Where should I go to meet new people without social media? Any tips?
Thanks for your help!
