reconnecting with old friends

    hi all,

    I finished college in the summer and moved home because i couldnt get a job, i work a few days a week now in my hometown, all my friends from home went to college elsewhere and are only entering their final year. I'm so bored during the week and dont have any good friends here at home, i thought about joining clubs but i cant really find any information on anything when i google it.

    My friends would come home every second weekend and usually work all day sat and sun so meeting up is tricky, we've grown apart between going to different colleges and being too busy at weekends but i want our friendship to be closer, like it used to be, i'm often left out of nights out because i wasn't invited til the last minute or they didnt think id be interested!

    I talk to my friends from college all the time, but we live to far apart for a regular meet up, i know people change through college and both myself and my friends from home have changed!

    Any advice?

    Where bouts are you based? Lots of evening courses are half way throuh or almost finished but many will be starting up in January so look out for leaflets coming through the door. Is there anybody at work who you could go out with. It's difficult to make friends for sure, I was in the same position last year having moved over from England but now I am meeting loads of people through college part time, evening classes and organising a sports group, but I am in Dublin so it may be easier in a big city.

    Good luck to you

    NanaB :)

    check your local libary for notice boards of things to do.

    Look at yourself and ask yourself what it is you'd like to be doing and go in search of those activities.
