How do you find time for a social life? I moved for my last role, then two weeks later, started to travel every week. Never had time to meet anyone near my house.

Try Meetups for the weekends based on activities you may be interested in .. Or just single Meetup groups. There were several conversations on FB about any dating app for consultants .. Whatever happened to that. I'd sign up for that.

Well you aren't traveling on weekends, are you? There are three meals each day to socialize if you really want. I just have a select group of close friends and my girlfriend. No longer do I have a large group of people is see so often. Quality, not quantity at this point :)

Problem is, when I moved here, I worked all the time and never made friends. So I'm super social at work, and truly introverted at home.

Should I buy a condo/house or continue to rent for a couple more years if mortgage+interest+hoa+property tax will be lower than rent? I'm looking for something small. 2 bed + 1.5 bath min of 1000 sq. I still owe credit card and student loan balance of $80,000.

A reminder to those who are stressed about your billable hours that your value is more than your pure productivity. To those stressed about relationships, relationships are hard even for non-lawyers, but you are absolutely worthy of love. It is an important reminder for all of us that you are worthy and you are valuable. Keep fighting!
