    Bars/Pubs. The booze helps lubricate those social wheels. Or friends of friends being introduced to each other.

    But honestly anywhere could be a place to meet someone if you’re not a creep about it and don’t try to force it.

      Kinda sucks when you don’t drink though. Best advice I’ve heard was to take up a social hobby, but I haven’t a clue what that would be either.

      Like you said, find an excuse to leave your house I guess.

        I think there need to be social locations like bars for people who don’t drink (or don’t drink a lot) but do use cannabis. Weed “bars” where you can have a similar social situation with a different type of social lubricant that gets people talking.

        That still wouldn’t cover everyone, obviously, but it would add to the mix.

        Best advice I’ve heard was to take up a social hobby, but I haven’t a clue what that would be either.

        The problem with that is that I have zero tolerance for stupidity and superstition, so I’d have a lousy time in most conversations or initial dates.

        “What sign are you?”

        “Check!”

        “What church do you go to?”

        “Check!”
