[quote=Anonymous]This area is particularly bad because so many people are transplants from somewhere else, so you’re not near your older connections. You are in that time/age crunch where it’s just harder to meet new people. This is why I find some joy in Facebook - there are tons of older connections that if we are in the same location, we go and do all the friend things, even if we hadn’t seen each other in a few years. If we lived in the same area, we’d definitely be hanging out more. If I travel, I will put on FB “hey, I’m going to be in X city next week - anyone want to meet for lunch/dinner?” I almost always see someone. Here, I’ve done the volunteering/church thing for years, and I’ve still done maybe one adult only outside activity with these people. It’s just the way it is.[/quote]
