There are a lot of co-Ed meetup groups that might work. My friend’s husband met all of his friends through a bocce ball meetup league. Unfortunately they’re all a bunch of fags, just like him. But regardless, I’m sure you could find something similar but with chill folks. I’d imagine it’s probably more likely than finding a decent men’s only group.

Yep, that's good advice too. Dog owners have something in common to bond over, and you get the bonus of having another fluffy buddy when you visit your new friend

Idk why people say this that if you have dog you automatically meet people. I have a dog and the only people who ever talk to me are elderly people or children asking if they can pet him. The only women I ever meet on a walk was walking a shitbull without a leash, taking selfies and the shitbull tried to attack my dog but thank God my dog didn't get hurt cause I knew what's coming.
 
There's clearly a demand for it, but do none of them just take the initiative to so something like that?

Because overtly men-only groups and organizations are only inviting conflict and reeeeing from feminists and the alphabet mafia if they are too visible. Things like addiction support or faith meetings get a pass, barely.
Do they think it's gay?

The intervention and wokeism inevitably makes it gayer than a San Francisco bathhouse. How on earth are you here of all places, today, and not able to see this? The way your side is eating themselves and destroying nearly everything, is something that's long-since happened to men.

Men over 30 rarely make new friends, its usually their wives or girlfriend's friends that become his friends by extension.

Men over 30 make friends with their kid's friends' dads. It's easiest if you have a school the young kids can walk to, as then the parents congregate outside at spit out time. If it's a roll up and toss your kid in the car type, there's always swim meets, cheer practice, PTA, whatever.

This probably wasn't always the case, but there's loads of dads and even grandfathers on school duty these days.

I have no idea what deadbeat dads and childless men do, but I am seeing a theme here: partner's friends, kids' dads, dog owners = use something friendlier than yourself as a crutch.

If your wife's/gf's friends hate you, they have an amazing ability to poison the well of your relationship.

Yes, but that only applies if your wife actually has any friends.


@TuckFrannies
There are more meetups for women than men because women create and fund these organizations themselves. Men usually don't create groups for friendless men for reasons unknown to me

Men often prefer more solitary hobbies than women do. Do you know why men go fishing? - To get away from their wives and children.
Women are much more socially oriented.

@NoReturn of course we think it's gay, admitting you need emotional and social support is incredibly objectively gay. Why don't you just ask your wife's boyfriend if he wants to braid your hair afterwards or something.

Yeah no.

I personally enjoy fiber and textile crafts because of the solitary, meditative and artistic aspects despite them being archetypal feminine hobbies.

I also keep the fuck away from the retarded, dramatic social communities that have formed around those skills, because I really don't give a fuck that some random yarn dyer managed to offend people over a fucking color combination.
 
I like posts like this. We can't just talk about retards all day.

The good male friends I have/have had, we just clicked. They were outgoing, at least in terms of suggesting get-togethers or being receptive to them. In my experience, some people are just more interested in doing shit and hanging out than other people, and they are open about asking. If you meet someone who seems cool, ask them to hang. Suggest going somewhere or doing something that you want to anyway. Even if it's not something they're super interested in, maybe they will try it. Don't worry about seeming gay, i think that's highly unlikely unless you're really hamfisted and effiminate. If you're not confident about social skills, there are tons of books and videos to help. If a given person is unresponsive or unenthusiastic, 99 percent chance it's just the way they are, nothing to do with you, so don't take it personal and keep on. To me, humor and a fun and open demeanor is key to meeting new people in a quality way, not just small talk shit. Find ways to work on it if you need to.

I don't know what I'd do without the friends I've had. I honestly might be dead. They have been more valuable than anything I own or could ever own. That's why i take the time to encourage you and share my experience. I'd also be remiss if I didn't mention some of my best friends over the past decade have been women, so don't rule that out. It's weird to think about...if my perspective on women was based only on dating and not informed by the friends I have, I would probably hate women.

Feel free to dm if you want, this is getting too long. Good luck!!!

This sounds very gay to me.

Okay you won me over, respecting women is good in my book.

Please do not try to make friends with anyone here, most will just dox you and milk you over it. Go find somewhere else if you are lonely, a smaller site would probably cater to that better if you don't want to not be on retard gossip forums but I would suggest something like a hobby finder. I got all my friends from hunting or talking over years of going down to my local haunts, I cannot offer any advice other than be yourself.
