How do I meet new friends?

I am getting divorced and have moved back home (me and my husband had moved about 1 1/2 hours away). All of our friends were together, and since I moved back home, I haven't kept in contact with them. I also never kept in contact with my friends from back home... so now I don't know anyone!! I'm 20 years old, so I can't go out to the bars at all. I work full-time in Human Resources, and everyone I at work is at least 10 years older than me. I go to college at night, but it is also mostly older adults because its night classes. I don't want to get involved in any church activities.... but I don't know how to meet new people and find new friends cuz I feel like an idiot cuz I literally have like NO friends!!!! Please help... by the way, I live in a medium size city (about 40,000 people) in central Wisconsin...

hmm first of all I think just to get a few friends, you should just make friends with the people who are older than you - at least then you won't feel so alone.


In the meantime, you could get a hobby I suppose.
Reply:Sounds like you have ruled out many options that some people have a lot of success with. I would not worry too much about making friends at places. I think that if you go out of your way to say 'Hello' to everyone you see and don't be afraid to talk to them, you will find that making friends will come very easy.
Reply:Look on websites... Typically, they're dating websites, but there are also other sites too.





Go on MySpace, Friendster, Bebo, FaceBox and all those types of websites. Put some stuff about you and say that you're looking for friends who live locally.
Reply:a great place is MEETUP.COm (and NO it aint some cheezie online dating service)





Go to meetup.com and enter your city, sign up for meetup. Basically theer are " meetups" in almost every city, monthly. You join groups that you're interested in. They have meetups from everything from anime to star trek groups, candle making, christian,. All kinds of stuff. Just go through their list for something that interets you
Reply:You are on the net and there are thousands of friends with you . Don't feel yourself alone. I am with you call me in your heart , you will get me there.
Reply:You could begin by changing that name you adopted for yourself which will lead many to consider you as "easy and cheap" and it turns good men off... to say the least and makes you a prey to more than you bargained for... go to libraries and be interested in whatever you could really be interested in, in life, besides "sex" which is the least of the things you are truly looking for in a friend or many friends and try to pick up a book on the importance of living in the NOW... Only then will you begin where it really matters to find good friends... Be living in the NOW and not in the past which is gone or the future which is so unpredictable unless you take care of the NOW...
Reply:join an on-line group.....sign-up for a class(art, pottery, whatever you're into).....volunteer for something.....see if you're town has any dry-bars .....join the YMCA or YWCA....
Reply:i think u should call ur old friends and try to rekindle ur friendship but if that doesn't work then just talk to people every where u go talk to ur neighbors eveything will work out just let it work its self out and be urself
Reply:Get involved in the community by going to the local community center and sign up for an activity that may interest you. I found volunteering in the community opens doors to not just other people of the community but also new friends!
Reply:I know how you feel, it is very difficult to make friends when you are young and you move. I am a very shy person, so it has been difficult for me also. I am going to star this to see what people say because I am also from a medium size city (but in southern Michigan). Good Luck!
Reply:maybe someone at work has a younger sister, brother etc.
