So, if there aren't many like-minded people, you can go to concerts, lectures, events and lunch/dinner on your own and enjoy. Find one friend, that's plenty.
I went to a movie on my own not so long ago. It was....weird. I'd never done it before and I kept automatically reaching over to the wife/girlfriend that wasn't there. Netflix next time.

Your call, but sitting at home with netflix won't get you out and about, where you can meet people. You can meet people in theater lobbies or in the ticket line.

It can take a few times to get used to going to the movies or dinner alone. I do it allll the time now, because most of my friends are flakes and sometimes I just want to go out by myself. The first few times are super weird, but you just get used to it.
JJ is SO COOL! Do you all believe this? She's going to be a pilot (or already is one?) and will be flying her own plane to her jobs? This girl is too much! Someday, J, you're going to blow some guy away. I want to hear about it when it happens. Some guy's going to really have to have his act together, though, to be deserving of your attention.
Don't forget the book idea. By popular demand of your fan base.
I actually talked to my friend about writing a book called 'The Secret life of Men' about all the BS we've been through working in shops (she's a welder) and how it's affected our self esteem throughout the years. She brought up a really good point though, in that we don't want to make women who read it distrustful of men and we definitely don't hate men at all and we both thought that would be how people saw the book.
So, maybe just an 'anonymous memoir' about our experiences working in a 'mans world'. We'll see
I actually met someone last weekend....well, kinda. I've known him for a while but he broke up with his gf a while back and I figured it would take him a really long time to get over her. The gal I was with (my ghostwriting partner ) was going on and on about how he was flirting with me and how she thinks he likes me, so we'll see if that goes anywhere

I've known him for a while, not an engineer, no college education that I know of. He's a manager at a local grocery store and just a cutie pie He's also got a pretty messed up sense of humor that mimicks mine, which is always good!
I'm not getting my hopes up though, he could have been flirting with me because the bar was dead, but who knows?

Oh well.
People don't interact with random strangers as much as they used to...times have changed. Most people would look at you weird if you tried to talk to them, at least where I live.
just pursue your interests and never become complacent. doing this will never keep things dull for very long and you will meet like minded people all the time to "have fun" with

I definitely ran into that in Seattle. Certainly not in CA, though. I've done ok here in NM. It definitely depends on where you live.
