What's theory or advice that will make me feel less lonely, and/or teach me to be less lonely? I'm very atomized. (hexbear.net)

Tips to make friends without spending money are welcome. I've spent years in a city without making friends.

Luckily even though I'm a minority in America, I'm not a minority in my city. :) It's filled with people of my ethnicity. So I have more opportunities to be closer with my people, and I want do the right things to get there.

Btw they don't have to be my ethnicity. Just wanna make friends to begin with. My dream is to meet cool communists around here. It's a minority city, and I figure I can't be the only one.

Look for local Food Not Bombs info, if you have time to volunteer it's a great way I've found.

Maybe try board gaming (there's many good ones nowadays, my city has several public get-togethers for games, I've never bought a game myself).

In US/UK meetup dot com seems decently utilized. You can sign up a fake profile and not RSVP for events that are clearly public and just getting posted there.
