[quote=Anonymous]I think the answers are likely to be church or hobbies. I am 55. During the pandemic, I started working on my genealogy about a small village in Eastern Europe. I joined a genealogical society. Through that, using online, I met and spoke with a number of people online. I made a genealogy friend/pen pal and we e-mailed each other a lot. We are only online friends because she's across the U.S. but she is definitely a social friend at this point. To meet people in person, I would suggest volunteer work. Volunteering has fallen off since the pandemic. Our PTAs allow community member participation and need any hands they can get. I have a work friend who is kind of a loner. Her best friend is a same age single woman like her. They met through a dog rescue and both help with each other's pets kind of like people with young kids help each other out.[/quote]
