New girl in big city, needs friends
As most of you know, I've moved to a brand new state. I've been here a total of 4 days now. Listen, I don't mean to appear as though I'm a big cry baby...ok FINE I'm a big baby! GOD! What the hell am I suppose to do around this place???
It's not THAT bad, I honestly do like my new state. The people are real nice, I love my new apartment, I bought a new TV and got a brand new living room set! And the city is super easy to get around...I just need to find out where all the "cool" people are...
So, I thought I'd ask you, my humble blogging friends for some suggestions on how to find new friends. I know, I know, I can begin to "hang"with the people I work with, and I will attempt to do so... actually some of the people I work with are so freakin HOT, I have to watch myself....Seriously, the men here are smokin'! Every place I go in this damn city, I see hot men. I'm not complaining, I swear, it's just a bit overwhelming...thats all. It's hard being turned on all day...
Anyway, I've come up with a "list" of ideas on how to meet some people, let me know if you have any suggestions!

good lick I was in the same position a few years back but NYC became a beloved friend. My advice just be happy! people flock to happy people.
I would suggest looking for friends at either the library or strip clubs - you meet the same type at both places.
Why don't you split the difference and whore yourself in a Pentecostal church?
Find out if there's a Restless Legs Syndrome support group in your area.
How about the local homeless shelter?
Oh damn, I just read flipphead's comment, and remembered that a library is the same thing (only with Internet access ... after all, how do you think I stay in touch?).
Serious Comment: Try joining as an independent person on a sports team like volleyball or softball. It's a great way to meet people during the games, and then people often go out afterwards.
Not-So-Serious-Comment: I remember a post you did about a month or two ago when you went into a bar alone. You met an interesting guy that night. Crazy but interesting. Crazy IS interesting; you have to admit that.
Try all your options...one of them has to work!!!
Seriously, don't stress over it. You'll make friends

I am not afraid of showing my face.
On your list you wrote
"Become a bar fly"
What do you mean BECOME.
Don't you mean "continue being?"
;-)
Enjoy your new life.
Tripe
If you find a way let me know! :) I'm new to the Boston area and going through the same thing...although "bar fly" sounds like fun to try!
"Go to a pottery class"
So, you want to meet a dead guy and hope he'll hold your hands as you spin a pot? Sounds kinky.
Streaking is a good one. Always worked for me.
My other tip: drive around at night and when you pull up to a hot guy (or girl) just put 'em on the glass. That always worked for me too.
