Casual Conversation

3379 readers

Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.

RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

No gf, no friends, it's hard to meet new people. Tinder and other apps don't work. Idk even if I travel somewhere I'm alone

Where do I find clubs? Been searching for an answer ever since the library in my city didn't even have a bulletin board

Rural US will be a shitshow for it.

There should be one in most places people congregate for fun: rock gyms, state parks/NF orgs, community centers, sewing/hobby stores, sorts leagues, idk... Can't hurt to literally call around. It's super awkward but "hi i have an interest in this and want to know how i can get involved" usually has two possible answers: "Idk", or "OH YEAH! Check out these resources!"

You can also try community colleges and sometimes universities. Clubs may be open to the public.

That requires a highly regional specific answer. I could give a dozen answers, but did you ask the librarian for help? In the US a librarian should be able to help you figure it out for your city.

Have you tried Meetup? I found some interesting board game groups there.

I found 1 (one) online d&d session, from Istanbul where I don't live

İt's not great, Facebook's even worse
