I intentionally put myself in that situation. I don't handle interpersonal stress very well so I stay alone these days. My major struggle though is BPD, so when I was with people I really did not know how to do it right and I put a lot of people, myself included, through hell, and I don't want to risk adding to that guilt until I feel like I'm on steady feet.

If you want to meet the people who act like they have it all together and aren't likely to lead you into any sort of temptation, find group outings/join a Meetup Group where anyone's invited, take classes/workshops in your interests, volunteer at a park, an animal shelter, food pantries, shelters, anywhere you want. Less likely to be your favorite person in the world who's going to save your life in a crisis but a good person have if you throw a party is: go to bars even if you don't drink you can talk about sports, clubs, can be the dancy kind or the bowling kind), apps like LMK, Tindr, and Bumble for friends.
