Left behind on the social scene?

I feel like im so behind in social networking that i'll never catch up. I dont go out clubbing and pubbing simply because im just not interested in getting drunk. I also avoid my friends drunken birthday parties but always feel bad about it when they talk about it the next couple of days. I have very few close friends and never had a boyfriend or any 'best' friends, especially no female ones. I also find it hard to talk to new people because i cant ever think of anything to say - im not really into chit chat.


Question is - what can i do to meet more people and have more relationships?

I can understand your point on not clubbing and pubbing. I can kind of see your point about the birthday parties too although you could go and not drink. However, you may want to try doing some chit chat to broaden your circle of friends. To find things to talk about keep up on the current events, some women take an interest in sports. even if you ask questions about something that others are interested in it will get you involved and open up new possibilities.
Reply:I have a similar problem. join a social group or a group that is orientated on something that you like.. like a club or something. . just start talking to people no matter how weird it feels. it works. then, sooner or later, you'll have friends.
Reply:You do not have to drink to get drunk at the bar. Most have a great dance floor and serve soda and water.


You do not have to drink at the parties either. If the drinks are pushed into your hand (been there) don't drink it. Just carry it around like you are.





I am female and a machinist and welder and do some car repairs. Most women look at me like I am a man. So there is definitely NO chit chat.


I have one real good woman friend, but we both work so much we do not get to see one another.





Look for a dance hall or go to the bar and drink soda.
