Although there won’t be too much chatting going on during the class there is always sure to be time after class for a chat.

You can find a partner to work out with or you can join a group class such as spinning or yoga. Joining a gym can be a good way of making friends. Getting to know your neighbors takes a little effort but the rewards are great. Neighbors can be great activity partners especially for activities such as running or walking as you do not need to drive to meet up. Charity work has the added benefit of making you feel good. Once you have made some friends you may find you have interests beyond the charity. This way you will most likely meet people who share your ideals and beliefs. You can even volunteer in a nursing home. Choose a volunteer group that means something to you whether it be working with small children, animals or the poor. Volunteering also has the benefit of structure and gives you something meaningful to do. Volunteering with a charity group can expose you to new and interesting people. Activities can be limited to church activities or you could find someone who shares interests with you outside of church. If you are in any way religious, joining a church can expose you to a whole horde of people your own age, as well as others. They meet regularly, at least once a week, there is no pressure to participate and the community is warm, friendly, caring, and inviting. Churches and Places of Religious WorshipĬhurches are an ideal place to meet people. Following are some places to turn strangers into activity partners (and possibly friends). Knowing where to find activity partners can result in greater community engagement, a better social life, and overall improved outlook.

An activity partner can develop into a friend over time, however. This could include playing cribbage with, cycling on weekends with, and having one another over for dinner.
