Can I have a hello

[Difficultcustomer]

I’ve been completely alone this weekend. Could I have a hello and maybe a hug (don’t care how un MN or not!)

I’ve been living in new city for work for a few months. I’ve always found socialising very hard and never really made friends. A recent ASD diagnosis explains some of it. You don’t have to read the explanation a hug would do Thank you

In other places I have at lest made acquaintances at church but everyone scatters after the service here. There isn’t another church I can try out. I think people know each other from having children at the school otherwise no interaction. I’m single. I see people during the week at work.

I’ve just requested to rejoin a meet-up group- I chickened out of an event then didn’t sign up for others so was removed (fair enough). This time I’ve let the organiser know by email when I try to join. I’m going to take myself out for some chips with my newspaper- very unhealthy but better then bed where I am now with MN for company

Hello! Waves I had a very lonely one too. Am already in bed because I didn't have anything else to do

Hello and ((hugs))
You’ve done a brave thing in moving to a new city. I found volunteering for something I loved, and joining in local campaign groups helped. Good luck!

Hello

Hello! I moved to a city 4 years ago, not found my people yet .... But I have recently joined a sewing group and a ladies social group (Facebook) so still hopeful!

Hello. You are very brave to move to a new place. I hope you find some people to chat to soon. Joining a meet up group is also brave. I hope it works out for you

Hello, and

I sort of know how you feel, having moved about a bit. each time seems to have got a little harder. I second volunteering, or join a hobby group.

Do you like horses? would you be able to afford lessons? the reason why is most riding school are really social places, you could just start do a group lesson and when you felt ready start getting to know the others, often they have BBQs social nights ect too.

Hey difficult 😁 I think you are very brave! My weekend has been uninspired as I determinedly dodged a Course work essay, and have been plagued by guilt all the while🙈 I despair of myself sometimes.
You sound like you've got the skills to work this thing! Go Difficult

Yo

Being lonely sucks balls (((BUG HYG)))

Babysteps on the social 'get yourself out there' stuff. You may find you go somewhere many times before people start to notice you and chat, then it'll snowball. I think finding something you love to do or have always been interested in is key, then you'll give off such an "I love cats/dancing/D&D/macramé/fancy coffe-tasting" vibe, that your loveliness will shine through.

Big hug! Not bug hyg #manylolz

Hello OP I hope your weekend has been ok!

Hello OP

Thanks
What I need to do and will in January is join a choir.

I got myself up and out for half an hour which was good. Work tomorrow so an early night will be fine.
