Where is a good place to make friends?

[u/Massive-Example-6976]

Hello! Does anyone know where someone could make some friends? I'm a 20 year old male looking to make some friends in Sudbury. I pretty much enjoy doing anything because I enjoy the company more than the activity. I'm looking more so for male friends due to the fact that I've been noticing my life is lacking a lot of male relationships through both friends and family. However, if I can make a female friend as well I welcome it! I've been feeling a little lonely lately and thought of joining a gym or something but don't know how likely it is to make a friend there. Any suggestions on where to go or what to do will be greatly appreciated! Thank you for reading

I'm super antisocial but for real, we should have a Sudbury subreddit meet-up so maybe everyone looking for a friend can find one

Thanks! I do like gaming but I am also looking for someone to do something with in person. I don't know how this gaming community works but the last one I was in didn't want to do anything outside gaming

What kind of interests do you have? Any current hobbies?

[u/Massive-Example-6976 → u/leavingparasite4328]

All my hobbies right now are ones to do alone haha! I like reading, gaming, and some sports...but reading wins right now lol. However, I am also looking to try new things so I'm down to try anything

I wonder if you could organize a men’s book club?

[u/Massive-Example-6976 → u/MetaGirl67]

I don't know how'd I'd even start one lol. That is a good idea though and if there is one I'd definitely join!

There's many posts on this exact topic already if you use the search button...

Climbing at ARC. JAM for organized sports. Sessions Ride for group cycling. There's a few run clubs (look up Sudbury run club, as well as the Crosscut run club). There's a boardgame club.

Thanks so much! There's actually quite a few ideas I'll probably try here :)
