(If you’re too lazy to read, just read the bolded parts for a short version.)
I’m 16 and I’m wondering where to meet people and find a community, nice people to spend time with. I only have one friend who’s really close to me, like a brother, and I’m basically his only friend too.
I was thinking maybe starting a sport like hockey because I think it would be fun. I want to meet friends, girls, and just people in general, real human connection.
I don’t know if I should cold approach people. I mean, I could, but I don’t really believe in it. Isn’t it kind of weird? Even if a really good looking girl approached me, I’d feel flattered and might give her my number, but I’d still feel a bit weird about it.
That’s why I think it’s better when you meet people naturally, like at sports, music lessons, school, acting classes, English lessons, etc. You don’t know each other at first, but little by little you talk, become friends, and see where things go.
I’m not just looking for girls, I just want to meet more people in general. I think it would make life more fun and enjoyable. I feel okay right now, not depressed or anything. School is fine, I guess. I talk with like 3 or 4 girls there, but we’re not really friends, and I’m sure we wouldn’t hang out.
I’ve been thinking about maybe switching schools, starting hockey, or trying cold approaches, but I don’t know. Please help if you have any suggestions.
