New city......all alone

[OneOfTheseDays]

Just moved into a new city last week for a new job. I don't know anyone for hundreds of miles. First time in a long time i've spent the weekend at home drinking beers. Anyone else in my boat?

Join the local community college or something. Just pick some fun interactive classes. You'll be popular with the ladies. Except if you're fat or something.

I've been in my current city for over a year and I know NO ONE outside my work and landlord.

Take classes at your local adult education center(guitar, photography, cooking, etc), join a sports/outdoors club(softball, basketball, frisbee, soccer, hiking, etc), volunteer, sign-up to a meetup.com group, etc....

Is it me or is meetup.com filled with older people? Too bad I couldn't find any cooking groups, I need to learn.

Call a hooker.

I've been there, still there to a point. Just give it time and persistence to what you want out of life.

Happened when I went away to college. It either didn't bother me at all, or else it was a relief, not having anyone familiar around.
