Give suggestions to get a social circle

[CupOfCoffee]

For those of you who have social circles, give me all ideas you have. I'm open to anything.

 

[Nibba]

Ask people about classes you have in common. After befriending them after a week or so, ask if they're doing anything on Friday. Say u and a bunch of friends are going out. Find more people and repeat till u have a group

>go to school/college and talk to people you're sat next to

It's over after that.

 

[Hiro]

Get a job and talk to your coworkers

yeah, people are much more reluctant to agree to come if it's not certain that there'll be more people

Yeah it seems like you're a creepy weirdo if u just ask one person and don't mention anyone else. But if you bring up other people casually, it'll make it seem like you're a strange but charistmatic individual

 

[Insomniac]

Don’t be autistic. That’s a good start.

I mean u pass those prereqs, I was saying it as a sort of general rule, not for you in particular idk

 

[IceCutter]

Become a yes man.

I.e say yes to any and all offers or invitations made to you

It doesn't matter.ugly guys do this all the time

from what I've seen irl it doesn't really happen much here unless the person already has at least 1-2 ppl that he knows more closely, it'd probably be pretty hard to pull off a week after having no social circle at all, unless ur gl imo

I'm starting from zero here. I don't have anyone I regularly hang out with.

So I'm supposed to tell people that I'm bringing other friends when I'm really not?

Yes then ask other people. then you actually will have a large group going. And if only a few people show up say they all bailed on you

It sounds like a good idea but I would feel like a complete fraud. Idk man. I could also hit up some people I used to talk to a couple years ago, though I wasn't very close and tbh I wasn't taken seriously by them either (likely because I have low confidence and shit)

then do the first part of nibba's suggestion and get closer to/befriend (preferably someone that's already pretty social) whoever seems the least retarded tbh

Yes, and looking for part time work right now.

 

[Time Travel]

well you should join some sort of student group.
I'm sure there are different groups for different activities that you could join.
Maybe you will meet people and become friends with them as you are both interested in said activity.
