Depends on your level of extroversion. I make friends when I go to coffee shops, bars, concerts, etc. You may need repeated contact with someone before you hit it off so group activities like sports teams, book clubs, etc. may make sense. Which neighborhood are you in? Let's all do a meet up.
Yeah I’d say I’m more of an extroverted introvert if that makes sense? It’s hard for me to socialize initially but then I’m very open and outgoing.
Yep, let’s get caffeine sometime

If you’re a female, bumble bff has worked amazingly for me and found all my great friends on there.
This is the second time I’ve heard someone say this ! I’m definitely checking it out
Join a cult, experience trauma, and then leave - all the ex culties will be your best friends.
Join Facebook groups! I was in the same boat as you until I started putting in the work to make connections.
This is what I did as well! I made all my best friends in the facebook groups.
if you belong to a church, that’s a great way to meet people. I’m married to a man that belongs to a church and when I didn’t know anyone during the pandemic, (when it started to ease down) the women all threw me a baby shower. It was the sweetest thing.
Yeah I’m down to meet up or co locate and work from a coffee shop!
Shameless Sellwood plug: the best coffee shop is Fetch Coffee Roaster
I joined the meetup app and found some groups that interested me and found people that way! It’s a little less intense than the 1:1 friend date you get on bumble bff, less pressure, more choices.
Check out one of Multnomah County's libraries. Maybe join a book club or join in with any of their adult programs.
Portland huge , but you're in an great location to meet new people everyday. Try local bars/ night clubs , coffee shops , or join an group that you have an interest into. Don't worry about making an fool out of yourself , you're all nuts.
