[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi OP,

I am an immigrant, who came with my parents as an older teen.

I was also 22 when I moved to DC.  I suggest you start dating, taking art or film classes, and hanging out with other immigrants from your country. You probably know from moving a lot that the first 6-12 months are always hard.

Also, move. It seems like you can afford your own place. [/quote]

She does not necessarily have to limit herself with immigrants from her country. She moved here when she was 5.

My brother moved here at 11 and has less in common with people from his country of origin than he has with people who grew up here.

She needs to explore what she thinks her interests are and see if she vibes with people interested in those things.

For example: I love walking. I could walk for hours a day. It seems pretty basic, but my closest friendship in my neighborhood is with a woman my age who loves walking too. That's how easily bonds are formed.[/quote]

And my brother moved here when he was eight. His closest friends are immigrant kids like him from our COO. He met them in college, they are super close many years later. OP does not have to limit herself to immigrants, I did not say that. Yet, she should not exclude the community as an option. [/quote]
