Exactly what it says on the tin- it’s been my New Year’s resolution to put myself out there more. I’m also interested in getting a new job, and even possibly dating.
To reach my goal, I’ve become the head of a book club, and joined a neurodivergent support group. Those have both been going really well. However, I really haven’t met anyone I would consider a friend yet.
There seems to be a lot of LGBT+ groups that meet in my city. I would love to attend, but I currently live with my parents, who aren’t supportive.
I also don’t drive, which is a roadblock on my journey to find in-person friends. I would like to learn, but it’s one of my biggest fears. I just have the feeling that I’ll misunderstand someone’s signals and it’ll end in disaster.
Where have you met people in the past? If you have in-person friends, how did you meet them? What do you recommend for people that are on the spectrum and want to form those close relationships with others?
