How TF do you make friends as an adult in a new city?

Especially during a fukkn scamdemic? This is why I overdo it on the misc for "social" life.

I am fortunate to have some friends from my hometown down the road but it's always the same ol' chit with them.

Brb, no work rn
Brb, school is online
Brb, people hit the town with people from work or school
Brb, FA

Work is the easiest, but in a city it still should be dooable. I'd recommend becoming a regular at a bar to begin with, and kind of move from there.

This is actually a solid piece of advice.

When I first moved to Portland 6 years ago, yes. They had tons of social events at bars so you could go there and everyone would be there for the meetup. I met a ton of drinking buddies. However, I got real tired of that over time and now most of my friends are from BJJ instead.

Tbh I haven't used it in years and not since the pandemic started, but I think it's still worth a shot.

Get some hobbies and find groups of people on either ******** or the meetup app.


But in your case OP, you would probably find the Grindr app most enjoyable.
