What counts as a normal life? Is it boring? How often do you make new acquaintances or meet old or current ones? How old are you?

Normal life can be boring but I enjoy the routine and having that boredom I need downtime to relax and recharge

I went for many years not having or not making time to meet new people because I lost a lot of trust from a few girlfriends I had had that turned out to be disastrous friendships.

But in Jan 2023 I decided that I was going to make the effort and put myself out there and meet new people. I thought even if I just meet one new person that’s good. So I started at a Facebook group that I created in 2014 for members of my community. I asked how many were interested in starting walking group. I was overwhelmed at how many women wanted to do this and since my city is pretty big, we created several different walking groups, depending on where you live, and those women who live near each other, get together and walk whenever they want. but in just from doing that I have made four new friends friends snd we get together regularly for walks or coffee.

I have a few different friend groups. One group is women that I have known since grade one and we get together for dinner. Another group is some moms that I became friends with being on parent council over the years and we go to dinner or paint nights pottery, making nights. I also have another group of friends that I have for my outdoor exercise class and we have gone on different trips together to go hiking or do stuff together I’m 55

@Jenny1234 A walking group sure sounds nice. Hope we get one here.
I just...well, most folks outside are gossipers so I tend to avoid them.

But I do hope there are better quality people out there that I'd get the chance of knowing.
