Other than bars...

[Loppfessor]

and clubs, where can you go to make friends?? I'm serious. Long story short my girlfriend and I are pretty much done and I realized that I have spent all my time in LA with no one but her. So now that I'm heading back to the States hopefully in a few weeks I'm going to kind of be starting from scratch again.

I'm trying hard to not become a party guy again but I was thinkin where the hell else do people go to hang out and socialize? I mean 99% of the time in the past "going out" meant a bar or club. So where do you go to meet people these days?

[Loppfessor]

Hey man the older the berry the sweeter the juice....but seriously help me out people....so far this is what I got

1. I'm bout to start mountain biking again so maybe I'll meet people on the trail

2. I'm going to start doing volunteer work so umm I'll probably meet people there too

What other suggestions do you clowns got?

[Randetica]

Well I am proud to say that I never cheated on her....Shit happens, the breakup is on her for once I did everything right. It hasn't been ugly so that's a good thing....right now I just gotta worry bout me hence when I get back from deployment I want to have a "plan" so I"m not just sitting around moping

Baleedat. You have to dead that whole "Go places and meet people to make friends" shit. One, you'll never be a s close to a person as their close friends; and two, people are shit anyways. What's so bad about being alone? I don't get this need to go out of ones way to meet people.

Did you ever tell her that I wanted you to cheat on her? Because that would be splendid... if you haven't, it's still not too late. Just run up and tell her!

[hitmonlee]

^HAHAHA...Now that's gay.

if you wanna be like that then i agree yeah there's a stigma

i've dated dudes i've met from messageboards.

granted i've heard its a bit different some places, the kind of messageboard where someone posts a pic and you recognise them or you go to a party and everyone is like oh i saw you on teknoscape blah blah (but act embarrassed and stuff about it). its resulted in marriages and babies. and a lot of dirty laundry.

sometimes someone new from out of town will join and a group of people will offer to go and say hi when they see them at whatever genre music's gig they like, and some friendships have been made.

and i dude i met off a dating site (yes lol) who i never hooked up with is now my weed buddy. (y)

if you were being facetious then fuck you :p

[hitmonlee]

but otherwise my opinion is to get a job where lots of people work, get to know a few, see who's cool, once you have a few friends you could move to a smaller company cos gossip at large places can get out of hand.

Or, kill a prostitute

Isn't there a military base in LA? Don't mix up the gene pool.

[BangkokB]

Go to a massage parlour. That gets all the BS out of the way

Or better yet, Get Hammered and stumble into girls night out karaoke night doing your best on GapBand "Party Train" and at some point take your shirt off. If you have a partner then all the better because that's a "Let's Join In' kinda Song

Cowboy Hats are a Must

[Dorothy Wood]

join a club.

or go back to school. all of my current good friends are because of friends of friends of friends stemming back to college.

my coworkers have become my friends also.

and internet works these days, there's not so much stigma.


also, why are you asking a bunch of anti-social messageboard nerds? :(

[taquitos]

[AAPSTUDIOS]

Yeah there's two I think...I'm stationed at one of them. But right now I'm deployed. Anyway people I'm talking bout friends...the last thing I want is another relationship, alright I really do but that wouldn't be very healthy. I am just working on building a life that doesn't include a girlfriend right now.

[QueenAdrock]

I've been friends with the same people since elementary school, so last year I wanted to meet new people. I made better friends with those I didn't know too well and met THEIR friends and hung out...but if you don't really have anyone right now, that's a little harder.

Join clubs or volunteer. I joined College Democrats and did some cold-calling for moveon.org during election time last year and met people that way...you just gotta find something you'd like to do in your spare time and meeting other people will follow.
