This is way outside of my comfort zone as I have bad social phobia, but I realized that I need more friends, and I need more fun in my life. So through meetup.com I found a sober socializing group and joined. They organize multiple events through the week, and I'm going to my first event this Sat. It's at a cafe where for a $5 cover you can play board games. Sounds like a fun low stress way to meet people.
