[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A couple ideas: 1. Host a bbq and invite your neighbors. 2. Start a book club with neighbors or parents from your kids’ schools and host monthly meetings. 3. Plan a MNO with all of the moms in your kids’ classroom or sports teams. 4. DH could organize a happy hour with his rec team. You don’t have to be friends with any of these people to plan these things with them, but maybe by spending more time with them you’ll find someone with whom you click and it will develop into a friendship. If not, at least you have some people to socialize with even if they aren’t great friends. [/quote] We have done 3 of 4 of these things (not the book club) and it has helped. We're not close friends but these things develop slowly and don't have to be intense one on one friendships to build some community. [/quote]
