When I’ve felt lonely, I often turn to reading books or writing to fill in the spaces. Each time I’ve moved to a new city, stepping out of my comfort zone helped me not settle for a lonely, ordinary existence. If your intention is to meet and connect with wonderful friends, it’s similar to dating in a trial by error excursion discovering people you want to get to know better. Here’s some ideas I’ve tried:
Check out a local bookstore. Many have author talks, books groups, writing groups or other interests to actively participate in.
Sample different things you like to do like yoga, Pilates, dance, art classes, language classes, etc. This is a good starting place to meet people who share your common interests.
Volunteer! When you practice service to do good for others, the rewards are great. Not only are you serving others who may be less fortunate, unlocking gratitude is easy to discover inside yourself.
Sample a variety of Meetup groups to meet others. Solo hiking clubs, speaking groups, travel or what interests you?
Other options might be for you to visit business or local chamber of commerce groups, join a church, synagogue, or other places where people come together.
Meeting new people and creating genuine connections is an adventure. Is it time for you to step out of your comfort zone? If so, get ready to step into a world of meaningful friendships that'll enrich your life in ways you never imagined! Championing you to step out of your comfort zone, enjoy life and have more fun!
