Reply to comment by thejanuaryfallen in How long did it take to make friends? by ComplexOk5954

This has been my experience too. Been here about a year and a half now. I feel like I'm finally making headway on making friends, and most of them are other transplants. Not because I'm actively seeking out other transplants...it just kinda happened that way.

How did you meet them?

Basically online friend dating. Joined the Facebook group for my town and responded to a post someone else made looking to make friends. They seemed cool, so we met up at a local brewery and hit it off pretty well.

From there, that person has introduced me to their friend group.

I'm also starting a class tonight for a hobby I've been wanting to try, and I'm hopeful I'll meet some more people through that.
