It feels like its so much easier to connect with men. I long for good girl friends like I have back home. Since I have moved to a larger city its been hard to find women I can trust that are in my same age range. I tend to spend my quality women to women time with ladies that are twice my age. Thats okay with me because they have a lot to teach me. I'm just not sure what I'm bring to them. Maybe I help them laugh. If there are any women in there early twenties that want to connect with me. . here I am.

I'm so glad I read this article. I just moved half way across the country with my boyfriend to a city where neither of us knows anyone (we needed a change), so it's been hard for both of us to find friends. He's made friends with some coworkers because he works with people his own age. I like my coworkers, but they're all 40-year-old men with wives and families, and I'm a twenty-something female, so that doesn't exactly scream "Hey, let's do lunch and go shopping this weekend."

I'm going to start to put these tips to good use.

I moved home after college and NONE of my university friends were nearby. So I decided to talk to my old high school friends I haven't seen in ages. I looked them up on myspace and facebook and we now have been getting together after work...and it's been really fun making up for lost time.

I also recommend joining a running club--but more specifically, join a team in training. There are a lot of great organizations out there, like the Leukemia Lymphoma Race for a Cure, that allow you to make great friends and accomplish something really important. My friend is training for a Marathon in October and meeting such great people...it has motivated me to want to do it too!

I think hanging out with your co-workers is a great idea! Work then becomes a place where you get to spend time with your friends!

This article is right-on! I've started going out socially with co-workers, found friends of friends on facebook, and just last night I went out for coffee with an alum from my college, and we ended up talking for hours!! It's not easy, but I'm starting to build a network of post-college, real-world friends :)
