Meeting someone

Dean

Hi everyone.

I'm writing this post to try and get some ideas on how I can meet someone. I want a girlfriend, that would be nice, but i'd take advice on meeting someone just as a friend aswell. The kind of advice i'm looking for is more of a "how to guide" 

I don't have any friends (or a girlfriend if you couldn't tell from above haha) I feel quite alone a lot of the time, and i'm not sure what I can do to meet people. I've tried dating sites and apps, they don't work. I've tried apps for making friends, such as we3 (not sure how many people would've heard of that) but that hasn't worked. I attend a social group as part of dealing with my aspergers, but nobody their really has anything in common with me so we can't be friends. 

I don't really go out anywhere to talk to people as i'm no good at it and get quite anxious. I've tried posting on here several times regarding gaming to try and meet people, and i've had discord groups recommended, but none of it works. Anything i've tried so far just leaves me still feeling alone, and frustrated. Please if anyone has any advice to offer i'd love to hear it

  • Nothing wrong with being in a committed relationship with yourself. It's the cheapest, most dependable way.

  • Hi Dean

    You mention gaming - have you ever been to a convention like Comic Con as they have meet up groups at those for people who are into certain games. Not sure if you're into Cosplay or not but the people who are tend to just meet up with people who are in costumes from the same game or film and there is that instant connection. It's a really friendly atmosphere. I know a lot of people who love MCM Comic Con's - you could check out their website and see if it is something you would feel interested in going to?
