Tips for making friends as an adult?

So I recently moved states to a new city and it's amazing but boy is it a bit lonely. Making friends as an adult is HARD. Anyone have any tips?

like there's no friend but if you want them just don't expect anything in return and always be ready to give 🤦‍♀️

@Raaii Nah, those aren't friends but abusers you'd be attracting if you do that.

@Casheyane really now I just don't know how 😔😔

@Raaii Figure out your boundaries and set them. You may have started a pushover, but show them a new version of you. If they leave, good riddance. If they stay and respect you for it, then you'd have filtered out the bad eggs.
It may take time, but by the grace of God, true friends come too every once in a while.

@Casheyane thank you for your genuine and positive advice🙇‍♀️
I believe in God's Grace
Though at this point I've no hope for any respect
And I'm going okay already
So nothing is necessary
