I want to make IRL female friends but have no clue how to make the first step

I did join two dating webistes

pof

okcupid

and made it clear I am looking for friendship not romance or sex

Does anyone know any websites or organisations where I can make female friends, I get so anxious around men I start to worry about my looks too much

I will start messaging people on those two sites that might help

because so far no one has shown interest in me

after two days or so, can’t remember exactly

maybe i should join meetup.co.uk yea i will do that I guess

I am so bored of being so lonely IRL

yea maybe try some sort of friendship site or else people might get the wrong idea

it is a good idea tho i used to look for friends on dating site but female friends obviously. Genuinely had no desire to have a gf but wanted friends and it worked.

Thankyou the_fool.

Yes friendship sites are harder to find.

But OK cupid does have a friendship option although it’s not very popular

oh really thats cool i didnt know that. Actually now that i think of it, ive made male friends on facebook groups. I produce music so i joined some music production groups and met some people. maybe theres like a womens soccer group or something you could join or for whatever you’re interested in.

I made two new friends doing college courses, if you can afford that. Meetup.com could be good though, there might be a women’s running club or a coffee morning club, well-being groups and such.

Wishing you luck :four_leaf_clover:

I used to use Meetup, yknow, before the plague. I found it useful, but be careful you don’t accidentally sign up for a hiking group. There are SO MANY hiking groups. People just love exhausting themselves for no good reason I guess :man_shrugging:

A long time ago I used to be in a hiking group. I loved it. We had days where we only walked about an hour and then ate afterwards so it’s not necessarily difficult to do. I really enjoyed it
