Where is the best place to meet new friends?

I live in Baltimore. I am 34 separated and getting divorced. I realize I have no friends. I really want to leave that part of my life behind due to the circumstances that led to it ending (no i didn't end it my spouse did). Truth be told I am extremely lonely. During the times when my kids aren't living with me I am extremely alone. I feel like I need some fulfillment outside of my family and self. Any ideas would be great. I just am at a loss. I am not really into the bar scene anymore. I am not a bad looking guy. There was a time in my life when I was popular and had no qualms or problems meeting friends. Please help, I don't think I want to live my life this way any more. I need humans in my life.

Well first of all, you're only 34 so you have a long life ahead of you and plenty of time to "start over" in a relationship.





My concern is that it sounds as though you have no friends that you do things with at all, you know, guy things, like going to football games, watching sports together on the TV, maybe working out together?





In order to have friends you have to BE a friend and that means you have to reach out to help people, or be outgoing enough to talk to people and find out what's going on with them. You might want to start doing this at your job. If you have an activity that you enjoy doing, talk to people there and just find out about them and what's going on in their life. If they have some kind of problem or concern, help them out. Get to know each other.





The same thing goes with women as well, although if you are just going through a divorce you might want to hold off for a year or so since few women probably want to here about the ex and how that divorce is going. Guys, on the other hand, will probably commiserate.





If you want to meet women, get a dog and take him for lots of walks. Dog lovers love to talk about their dogs and if you ask about a woman's dog you'll soon make a friend. Friendships can lead further. Just an idea.





Another thing you can do is join one of those dating organizations to meet people.
