No Social Life

    I am a 25 year old male and I feel like I am socially free falling. It seems that I have peaked at University and I am now becoming a loner. I have always started from scratch in each point in my life from school to moving over and hour away for Uni and lastly moving to a new city 2 hours away from Uni for my first job. I have lost touch with my friends I went to school with but that was okay because I had replaced them when I went to University but I when I moved for my first job it seems that I have been unable to make too many friends.

    I have been here two years and I do nothing with my free time, all I do is just go the gym after work every single night as I have nothing better to do. I used to play football and tag rugby each week but now I couldn't even be bothered. The only people I actually know here are all from work and for some reason the ones I have gotten on really well with have all decided to leave the company and the city.

    I seem to have missed a memo or something as everyone seems to have gotten a partner, all the people I currently work with all have other half's which is probably why I don't hang around with them after work. Its actually kinda scary how many people are in relationships in my office.

    I am still friends with my mates with some of my mates from Uni (like we still go off 2-3 times a year on week/weekend holidays) but since I moved away they seem to have either gotten girlfriends or have gotten really good a getting with girls so when we head out I am always just left by myself at the end of the night.

    I don't like my job anymore so I am looking to move (work in IT so can move anywhere) and I was initially thinking of moving abroad but then I thought it would be good to actually move to where my mates are but seeing that they are all getting tied up I am starting to wonder is this such a good idea.

    I do plan to join meet up groups and that when I move but my sister is part of one of them and I don't exactly want to be hanging around with her.
