    Hi,

    Not a major problem..but still 1 that effects me each day. I work 8-4 but once I hit 4 I am lost as to what to do. All my main friends are back down country or else busy with gf/wives. I head home each day and just wish I had someone to go play tennis with, go cinema with etc!! I end up walking around a lot and sitting on boardwalk reading paper just to pass a couple of hours. Complete boredom and loneliness.

    Just wondering if anyone is same as me?? Or what to do about it?

    How about Meetup? There are lots of good groups there and you could join a few since you have a lot of time to spare. There's loads of stuff going on in Dublin and a lot of it for free. Event Guide. Look up the galleries, museums and libraries for talks and exhibitions. It won't be long until the new term starts if you're up to taking a few classes.

    Hi Lonely in Dublin,

    I know exactly where you're coming from, im 22, have just graduated and started a full time job... i have a couple of friends from college but nobody close, i had glandular fever during college and was out for the count for a long period of time so lost my close friends. I have a boyfriend but can't be spending all my time with the poor chap or he'll forget why he found me 'pale and interesting'... im looking to meet young people who want to do stuffs... I find everyone so cliquey these days.. i think i might just have to get a dog. As far as i know i don't have BO.. and i don't look like the elephant (wo)man.. i literally want to run up to people and shout 'play with me'... oi

Might sound strange (online and all) but if your up for similar things we should meet up! that goes for anyone else who might be interested. Anyway hope it works out for you.

    Yup! There are plenty of us out there! I have a great life from Monday to Friday, busy with work and keeping fit but at the weekends all my friends are too busy with their lovers to hang out. I'm actually really down about it but have to idea what to do!! Maybe we should organise a gang of bored people to hang out and do stuff!
