How to make friends.

[wanttofeelbetternow]

Using food to fill emptiness. Anyone else? I don’t know how to connect with people. I’m in my 30’s. Single. No kids. Outsider. I don’t think like other people. Find it really hard to connect with people. How do you meet like minded people? Open minded. Like to travel. Not set on rat race have kids work til you’re 70 not enjoy life. Etc etc

Why are you making the assumption that people with families are not opened minded?There are many ways to live life and friends don't have to think exactly like you do. You put limits on yourself if you think that way. I find it takes very little to make a connection with different people. I have friends who are younger, older, professional and non professional . Showing an interest in someone and trying to be a friend to them is helpful, as is joining a group like weight watchers, you may have nothing in common but wanting to eat healthy, but that can be enough to form a friendship.
