How do i meet new friends in my area?

My summer holiday is coming up and my group of friends is kind of drifting apart. I dont want to have a boring summer, so how can i meet new people in my area? I already know most people my age at my school, so i'd really like to meet some people out of school with the same sort of interests etc. I've looked around for clubs and stuff i could join but there's nothing that really appeals to me as i don't play sports and other stuff like art classes etc. are lacking. Also no meeting people on the internet, this just seems sort of shady!! Help!!

The best way to meet people in the area is to go to a church and get involved in a good singles program. The groups have a lot of fun activities that they do together.


You could do some volunteer work. You will meet all sorts of people and feel good about yourself also.

What do you like doing or ever wanted to do?








Sports does not have to include ball sports in school.








I hated school sports like football...








but love doing things like snorkling, surfing, skiing...








In fact usless with balls but great with skiis go figure.








Maybe you should take up self defence lessons. That way you can ahndle yourself, boss boys around. Plus guys love fiestly girls hence all potty over Lar croft or Jessica Alba characters.





Also that way later you can argue for more freedom as a teenager.





Yeah dont meet on the net but what you like doing and what city maybe folk can suggest things... and age only so we can suggest appropiate stuff...





NEVER give contact details.

for you primary question try the following:


# forget that you are looking for a friend and get involved in common activities with neighbours eg, help an old lady in her home, plant a tree somewhere, offer to take care of the kids of someone you know,etc,etc,etc...


#If you want friends then get involved in sports.I think football ( soccer) is the best for this,followed perhaps by basketball.However any sport is good.





I am a little bit confused about you being not religious.Do you mean you do not observe some religious values or that you do not believe in God,Gott,Allah(The Maker).


Please clarify!!!!!!!!!
