Our eagle-eyed editor Kayla spotted this Reddit thread about how to make adult friends in Georgia. And it's got some gems.
Breaking news: Making adult friends can be hard.
Here are some ideas for OP from friendly Reddit users:
- ALTA's tennis league. "Noob we had invited to our team ended up marrying my best friend. Tennis is love." — darthwheeler
- Hike! JFAF1702 recommends Georgia Hiking Singles 20s & 30s Facebook group. "More of a friends group than a strictly 'singles' group."
- Majanklebiter suggests kickball, a classic, and bocce. Try GO Kickball for a range of locations.
- Join your college's local alumni association, Born-2-Roll says.
- Volunteer, multiple users say. There's Trees Atlanta. Oakland Cemetery. The Humane Society. And so much more!
- Free workouts with the November Project every Wednesday.
Don't want a commute? Talk to your neighbors. That's how Emma found her Atlanta friend group!
Of note: "It's the south. Talking to the people in the grocery line seems to be a good way to make friends" — wisdom from AuroraGrace123.
The bottom line from slothspiritanimal: "Say yes even if you are feeling lazy, or it feels too far to drive, or it's not your most favorite activity. Say yes enough, and be a good person, and I pretty much guarantee you will make friends. And then you can say no if you want to just stay home and binge Netflix."
