good way to find groups of people that share your interests

7/7/2011 4:19:10 PM

I meat girls from craigslist.

It will always be awkward for 1 person to meet other groups of people without it coming off as church-group-esque, you'll have to go in with a wingman

7/7/2011 4:25:49 PM

nah its really not

7/7/2011 4:29:06 PM

School clubs and organizations, co-ed sports, church, book clubs, volunteering, bars...

Enter a crowded area and remove your shirt exposing your giant swastica tattoo

meating them is harder

i do everything through craigslist.

one time I saw a meetup.com singles meet at a place in Cameron Village. Talk about a meat market. Stay away from those. Other meetup stuff will be ok.

7/7/2011 4:43:48 PM

^oh hai

7/7/2011 4:44:18 PM

its a lot easier than you think. meetup.com is a good start. don't do the singles ones right off the bat, they're all awkward. Do the group activities and such.

7/7/2011 4:46:19 PM

I take the Wolfline to Brent Road to meet people

7/7/2011 4:48:37 PM

Wolfe webz party tonite

on a serious note what was the driver for some huge slip n slide party circa 2004

latch on to your current friends and leech their extended friends groups?

7/7/2011 5:07:02 PM

Join co-ed kickball team and create a "posse" or "crew" of 4-5 couples that you only hang out with

7/7/2011 5:12:35 PM

b-beheheheheheheheeeee

7/7/2011 5:25:02 PM

ugh hanging with couples sucks when you're the single guy

You can't think of it as being the third wheel. Make yourself the center of attention. Think of it as you being the big front wheel on at tricycle, and they're the little retard wheels in the back.

this.

then when you have a little crew going you can go out to more places without feeling uncomfortable and get more selective regarding friends you meet. weed out the stragglers in your original group. profit.

this describes my life

meetup.com works.

Plus be friends with your classmates.

And if you buy me dinner i'll be your pretend friend.

7/7/2011 6:26:42 PM

I have generally found out that an easy way to make friends is to buy the bar out

7/7/2011 6:28:46 PM

I shall have to give this meetup thing a try when I get back

7/8/2011 12:17:23 PM

go to bars, hang out there frequently, eventually people will talk to you

7/8/2011 12:26:25 PM

meet friends through friends. i'm sure your 2-3 friends have a bunch of friends in raleigh so just hang out with them to meet new people.

also facebook

7/8/2011 1:03:43 PM

^
you use facebook to meet new people?

7/8/2011 1:04:29 PM

you should start looking into meetup now to see what type of meetups the groups are having. Like if they sound cool but are only meeting every 6 months, that's a bit pointless. Or if they have tons of members but only 5 are showing up to each meetup.
