I Want to Make Friends

You need to be very careful about confusing friends with lovers and relationships.. you have friends.. male friends.. but still consider yourself alone.. so the same would be true if you had female friends.. you'd still be alone .. women tend not to go for having sex with men who are just friends.. (not long term anyway it tends to be a short term thing then loses appeal) so if you mean you need a girlfriend/relationship then aim for that...

There's the potential to make friends anywhere you go.
Library, grocery store, places of worship, live music venues, meetup groups and if you're really brave you can put an ad up on Craigslist too.
