[quote=Anonymous]A few strategies: 1. Meet new people: join meetup.com, take a class, join your college alum club, hang out in public places and chat people up, go to neighborhood meetings, volunteer. To me, this is the most work-intensive approach, so it only works if you are enjoying these activities on their own, and meeting someone who might become a friend is just a side benefit. 2. Turn acquaintances into friends. Who among your acquaintances would you be willing to spend two hours a month with at a bar/coffee shop/museum/etc. Realize that friends don't have to be best friends. Find something you want to do and invite one of these acquaintances. Accept that people will say no sometimes and keep trying. 3. Reconnect with old friends-even if they don't live in your area.
