No Friends

    Hello,

    I have posted here before, over a year ago now and here I am again back posing the same story.

    I am a male in my mid 20's. My problem is that I have no friends anymore. I have always been a very quiet guy. The few friends I have have now moved away to different places throughout the word and I am left alone. I have no one to go out with at the weekends, just nobody is left. I know you will say there must be someone but everyone has movedon. Colleagues from work are not into socialisingfor one reason or another. They just dont socialise together...

    I am into sports and used to play Gaelic football & soccer when I was younger. But finding a club that wants a player of my level (Very poor!) is difficult.

    I simply have absolutely no idea on how I can make friends. I havent really made a friend since my colleage days...

    I just want to be able to go out at the weekends with people, have a few drinks, head to a club, chat up women. But all this has disappeared in the last 2-3 years :-(

    My basic question: How can I make friends in Dublin?

    I was having similar difficulties to you. Recently I found a group on MeetUp.com and have started going to nights out with that. I have yet to really click with someone, but have started to organise my own events, the first of which went really well. It's a womens group so it won't help you but I definitely recommend using MeetUp to help get out there.

    Hey op

    I could have written your post myself. I still have quite a few friends in Dublin, but they have all got other half's at this stage.

    I guess the usual advice of just trying to get "out there" more applies. Drop me a PM if you want to talk and maybe come up with some plan.
