Find people with similar hobbies
Anything you love to do, others love to do, too. Groups formed around hobbies are fertile hunting grounds for friendship. There are many activities you might enjoy but think of as solitary, such as sewing, hiking, or reading. A little sleuthing online, or at the local library, is bound to uncover some information about local knitting circles, book clubs, or outdoor enthusiasts you can join. Or if you’re a novice, consider taking a class at a local craft or cooking store.
