IT IS HARD!!! I’m in my late 30s and work remotely so tend to meet new people through my kids’ daycare.

There are some pretty good MeetUp groups in Pittsburgh if you have a particular interest like running, art, hiking, or whatever.

There’s also a good advertising/marketing networking event called JUICE that meets the first Wednesday of every month, usually at a bar. It’s social and can be useful even if you’re not in advertising (you could be a future client!)

I started racing bicycles and made like tons and tons of friends through it. Did this in my late 20’s but I think you could very easily find a hobby, show up and meet people. A friend of mine was doing this thing called “hashing” where you basically run a 5k and get hammered every weekend, I think he met some fun people. I guess my point is - if you find a hobby that other people in their 30s are into, you will def meet some people.

Haven’t done the dating thing in a while so need advice! (F here) Met a guy at a party on Sat, followed each other on insta, then I dm’ed him my number saying “lmk if you want to get drinks sometime”. He then texts me and says something along the lines of “yeah let’s do it” but doesn’t offer any concrete plan. Does this mean he’s not super into it? Or am I overreacting and I should initiate the plan? I initiated the insta follow and the dm so I feel like it’s his turn…?

So, this is a little awkward, but I recently moved to SD for a fresh start, and honestly, I love this city. My problem is I have been more of a homebody since I moved here and I'm a little intimidated to go out and meet people because I don't feel like I fit in here. I am overweight and this city is full of active, and attractive people. I guess I am wondering what my experience would be if I got out more? I feel like people look at me when I'm in public because I stand out due to my size.

When I expressed how I felt she keeps saying there's nothing going on. I feel that when start to get emotionally close to some other guy than SO then it's not a good sign in relationship. Am I overthinking? contd.
