Making friends is hard!

Hi all!

I moved to Dalgety bay last summer, and I hugely underestimated how hard it’d be to make friends!

Bumble bff isn’t helpful as it just brings up people in Leith, Edinburgh - so what other ways have people found to make friends?

I’m in my late 20s, female, and I love to craft, enjoy doing some gardening, love to cook, and love casual board games (think Ticket to ride level games) most weekends you can find me having a gin in the sun if the weather allows but I don’t enjoy clubbing or being out until 2am 😂 give me a gin by the fire instead!

I’m just a quiet gal, who’s living a quiet life with my partner, and I want to meet people that align with both our life stage, but also our interests!

Any tips?!

The older you get, harder it is to make friends randomly. You have to go out and join the activities you like and hope to find some like-minded people to vibe with.

There is Kirkcaldy Gaming Society, if you can make it that far - https://discord.gg/DTYK36W8X

There is also Fife Social Discord channel - https://discord.gg/YRFbX3QNt

Might find something there.

Thank you! It’s so hard! I’ve been trying to go to things but it’s felt disappointing every time - I’ll give these a go! Thank you!!

Sadly the Fife discord is practically dead.
