I recently moved to NYC. I have only one friend here, and it's become shaky.. as explained in another question of mine.
I need friends.. I need people to talk to. I need people to hang out with and laugh and have fun with. I don't have any friends here. I'm totally new.
I've never been super sociable before, and I've never really known much about clubbing and going to bars and parties. I don't go to college just yet, and I only recently got a job.
How can I go out and make friends? I want to be around people with similar interests as myself (my job is totally unrelated to my interests), and if I'm lucky enough... find something romantic. I want to meet people, and have a social life.
Additional info, added Saturday October 11 2008, 7:37 pm: I'm a guy, by the way... and the one friend I have it's kinda shaky right now. We're having a bit of problems.. Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category? Maybe give some free advice about: Friendship? Dakizah answered Saturday October 11 2008, 9:29 pm: It would probably help if you were to join some volunteer work to help people. There you could meet people who have similar interests and eventually work on becomeing friends. Another thing that you could do is simply start a conversation with your coworkers if you notice something that you have in common such as a dislike of a boss. Eventually you'll have a few friends.
