I'm feeling properly down and frustrated lately. I've always been someone who likes going out to things, as well as being quite happy in my own company. However recently I've found it so hard to find others who want to do the same things. Before Covid, I had quite a group of friends who were up for socialising, but coming out of that they all seemed to be settling down, getting married and having babies so busy with their own lives, so don't have the time any more.
Other people I know when asking if they want to go out either don't seem to respond or give vague answers like 'I'll let you know', and then never hear any more.
I like going to movies, concerts, theatre shows, meals out, quiz nights and escape rooms, the latter two of which isn't something you can really do on your own very easily. Rather than having to rely on my dad, it'd be nice to find others to have fun and be with.
Does anyone know of any social groups in the area, or any suggestions on basically finding new friends with similar interests?
