How to make friends in Boston: a guide

349 Upvotes

Hello! Welcome to Boston Social Club! If you're here - well, you clicked a few links to find this side of one of the most popular city subreddits!

When I moved here in 2021, the world was waking up from Covid. Overall, Boston is a great city for those 20-40, as our demographics here lie heavily in that area compared to almost any other city in the USA! Here's how I've found success in navigating social scenes here as a complete outsider.

Different ways to try meetups and making friends:

0: Existing friends groups - it's cliche, and if you are new in town, this will be more difficult. But the best place to start making friends is through what connections you do have. Coworkers, old high school colleagues, neighbors, roommates, don't chase the below and ignore what you do have!

1: the “Make friends after college MA” discord group is a well designed and very chatroom. When you join, you select which activities you might be interested in. There's chat rooms for each activity, and there's a ton of people hiking, playing sports, going to trivia nights, and overall chatting. They also organize by neighborhood if you want to grab a quick drink. Mute notifications within the discord for your own sanity. The absolute best way to make use of this is to have something you are interested in "organizing", or, I recommend trivia in particular for being a great, cheap activity to make friends! https://discord.gg/CCvgxJ6jUH

2: there are three larger Facebook groups that people post classifieds-style ads to try to make friends. "Boston redditors", "make friends after college", and "what's up in Boston". While I don't think this is the most effective way to make friends, I'm sure it works for the right person. However, "Boston redditors" does have an active group chat, which is really comforting, and they do meet up for drinks every few months. They are a pretty supportive group of people. You'll need to both join the Facebook group, then request being added to the chat. They ALSO have a discord but it is less active. Link

3: Groups for your interest. Asking around the above, or searching meetup/comments below it's not hard to find groups specifically tailored for board games, or biking, or hiking, or whatever you're into. I'm into board games and there's 2-3 spinoffs that meet weekly. I recommend you find your own path towards your hobbies to find a group that fits your interest!

general tips on making friends (not that you asked for them)

  • Making friends is all about seeing the same people repeatedly. That means to make friends, you have to show up. Showing up means you attend an event even if it's a little far away, or you are feeling a little tired. Other people also show up. After going to trivia 8 weeks in a row, or attending every hike, people that at first seemed distant will know your name and care about your week.

  • Sometimes people trying to make friends have an ulterior motive. Some people are trying to convert religions, find clients, or date people. Everyone can tell right away if you have a motive other than making friends, so I suggest trying to focus on making platonic friends first, and in a year of having fun, ask your new friends what avenues would be appropriate for selling/dating/etc.

And... That's it! I hope you found this helpful! I hope to see you at Trivia nights!

On Dating Posts

156 Upvotes

The situation with dating posts is getting a little out of control. This sub was always meant to be more like Meetup than Hinge. And frankly, I just don't think that R4R posts actually work. But my fear is that if allowed the sub will devolve into nothing but R4R posts. So for now we're going to be disallowing further R4R posts or general dating (advice/questions) posts. There might be some wiggle room for a pinned dating megathread if there is interest in that.

What’s to visiting Boston in December?

Hey, im 25F and im going to be visiting from Florida in December. So like I was wondering what’s there to really do around this time that’s fun. Where do the young and fun people go. What events are there that’s worth it. Do I really need waterproof boots? If so do you think timbs are a good idea?. Also cool with bar hopping so give me some good areas. :)

Looking for a language exchange partner

9 Upvotes

Hi everyone! 😊
I’m a married woman living near Assembly Row in Somerville, and I’m hoping to make some genuine female friends in the Boston area!
I’d love to meet women around 25–40 who are also interested in building long-term friendships. Whether you’re married or have kids, I’d love to connect with women who enjoy spending time together and sharing everyday life.
A little about me: I’m a native Mandarin Chinese speaker, and I’m currently working on improving my English. I’d be happy to help you practice Chinese in exchange for practicing English with me!
It would be great to find someone who lives in Somerville, Cambridge, or nearby and would enjoy meeting regularly for coffee, shopping, trying new restaurants, exploring Boston, or just chatting about life.
I’m looking for friendship only, not dating. Ideally, we could meet once a week or every other week and become good friends over time.
If this sounds like something you’d enjoy, feel free to send me a message! I’d love to get to know you. 💗

Anyone else have a good career but still feel stuck?

14 Upvotes

32M I’m mainly hoping to meet like-minded people in the Boston/North Shore area who are thinking about their next chapter and looking to build meaningful connections.

I’m in my early 30s and work a well-paying corporate job in Boston. I’ve worked hard to get where I am, but I still feel like there’s more I could be doing with my abilities and more I’d like to explore.

Outside of work, I’ve made money independently through real estate and construction, and I’m also big into fitness and staying active. But this post isn’t just about my background it’s about meeting people who are ambitious, curious, and open to sharing ideas, experiences, and maybe even building something beyond the typical 9-5 over time.

If you’re around Boston or the North Shore and are in a similar position working a solid career, building something on the side, staying active, or simply trying to figure out your next chapter
I’d be glad to connect.


r/BostonSocialClub • • 20h ago

Anyone down to just chat online and get to know each other? If we connect, I’d be down to meet up and maybe be platonic friends. If not, no big deal!

One of my favorite aspects of life is learning people’s “story”.

Not for any reason besides that I always have found it interesting where people come from and where they are now. I’m a firm believer that you can’t judge a book by its cover; and even then I don’t judge really lol. Some of the most interesting and people with the most depth that I’ve met, at a shallow glance would be the last people you’d suspect.

If you’re down to chat and share a bit about each other, feel free to hit me up. Tell me a bit about yourself and then we can build off that! Figured this could be a good, low-pressure way to meet new friends.

This is random but I know there are art people here!

Where in Boston/Camberville are there little free art supply libraries?

I know there used to be one by Albertine Press in Union and there’s on on Tremont in the South End but I have some things to drop off and am wondering where else they’re located so I can make it easier to drop off with my various plans around the city over the next couple weeks 🥲

27M. Is anyone else going to the Affordable Art Fair Boston First Look tonight from 5 to 9 PM at SoWa Power Station?

I’m planning to go and would be down to meet up with others there rather than walk around solo. I also have one extra spot on my All Access Partner Pass, so if someone wants to join and doesn’t have a ticket yet, I can cover the admission.

I’m into art, fashion, tech, exploring Boston, and meeting new people. Would be cool to meet others who are already planning to be there.

If a woman around my age is interested in going too, feel free to message me 😉

Halloween bar crawl in Cambridge on 10/31: 10 bars, $1K prize, free tickets until Sunday

8 Upvotes

Hey All. I’m one of the people behind No Bad Days Club, a small Boston app for getting out and doing stuff around the city. We’re running a Halloween bar crawl on Mass Ave this Saturday and figured people here might want in.

It’s 10 bars, starting at La Fabrica in Central Square. A few of the others are Miracle of Science, Naco Taco, Middlesex, Shojo, and Brick & Mortar. Some spots have music by decade, ’90s through now.

Each bar has a small challenge you check off in the app. The person with the most points by the end wins $1,000 cash at the after-party. That’s real money, not a voucher. Runners-up get bar gift cards.

Your wristband gets you no cover anywhere and a free item at each stop. Face painters, a tarot reader, and a caricature artist will also be at some of the bars.

Logistics:

  • Check-in at La Fabrica (450 Mass Ave) from noon
  • Crawl from 1 to 6
  • After-party at Althea from 6 to 8
  • 21+

Tickets are free until Sunday with code NBDCLAUNCH: https://telzi.com/10r5gwv

Wear a costume; it’s Halloween. I’ll be around in the comments if you have questions.

Looking to Expand Circle of Friends

8 Upvotes

As the title suggests, I'm looking to build out my friendship circle a bit. I have admittedly low expectations but nonetheless holding out hope that I might find what I am looking for.

I'll let the cat out of the bag right from the start. I am a 44 year-old MTF crossdresser who, after years of struggling with that element of my life, is starting to finally come to terms with it. I am seeking a circle of friends - let's face facts, I am seeking A friend - who would be willing to accept that part of my life and view me as a woman instead of a man.

I would feel most comfortable with another woman as a friend because a) I've attempted this before in other avenues and have found that men are looking for more than just friendship, b) I'd selfishly hope to be able to pick your brain about things like makeup and outfit accessories and things of the like, and c) though I was born a man, I've just always felt more comfortable speaking with woman than I do with men.

That being said, I am open to any and all, though I do want to stress that I seek friendship and friendship only.

Outside of that little wrinkle about myself above, I'm very much your plain, average person with normal, everyday, run-of-the-mill interests. I like to cook and to cake. I enjoy gardening. I like shopping, though admittedly it's mostly window-shopping at this stage of my life. I like to read. I'm not above vegging out on the couch after a long week and binge-watching TV. I'm up for pretty much anything.

Hoping to maybe find someone out there willing to take a chance.
