How is it that I have lived in my lovely city for three years yet I haven't made any close friends in my local area?
In episode 059 of The Cafe Grit Podcast, I explore this dilemma of mine and reveal how I am working to overcome it.
I have lots of friends outside of my current home base. So how did I meet THEM?
✅ Work! One advantage of getting back to the office (for those who want to) is meeting a lot of people.
✅ School! Friends from college, friends from high school - there are always a few who are your people.
✅ Through other friends! I have a few close friends that I met through others.
✅ Family! Goes without saying...siblings, cousins, bonus aunts, so many awesome friends.
But alas, my current situation is not conducive to meeting people under the above circumstances.
↳ I have been a remote worker for over 7 years.
↳ I am no longer in school.
↳ My friends' friends are not local.
↳ My family members are spread across the country.
Never fear! I am learning to think outside of the box on the friend front!
How did you meet your closest friends?
