Finding People Who Share Your Vibes

It can be tricky to find people who match your vibe these days, especially if you have moved areas or changed jobs recently.

We’ve put together a list of awesome ways to help you find your tribe in life and spend your days a little less lonely! Let’s take a look!

Join a Sports Team

Pick up a racquet, kick a football or hop in the pool to try and find a new sport and, with it, a new group of people with whom you share hobbies and interests. While this plan can appear a bit daunting at first, you’ll have a whole group of potential new buddies and a fun way to blow off steam after work.

Start a New Hobby

Crocheting, jewellery making, and even lino printing are all commonly found in workshops in most cities across the globe. By joining a fun workshop, you get to make something to cherish forever and, hopefully, friendships, too!

Try a New Facebook Group

If you search for your interests along with the city you live in, then you’re almost guaranteed to stumble upon an absolute gold mine of events designed to help people who share your values or interests connect face-to-face. You can even search for friend-making groups!

Attend Local Events

Whether it be a wine tasting, an open day or a live music night, by attending cool events that interest you in your local area, you’re bound to naturally start to make friends with people who have ideas of fun similar to yours. Sites like Eventbrite or even Facebook often have tons of free events for you to browse until you find one that catches your eye.

After Work Socials

If your colleagues regularly host get togethers outside of the office, then why not join them? Cheeky Friday drinks or a team building night can all lead to meaningful friendships you may have overlooked when sitting at desks all day. Better still, you already have at least one thing in common–work!

Apps and Websites

You can choose to create a profile on a dating website or some apps, and you can even aim their market specifically towards people who are looking for new platonic relationships. One of the best to try is the Hily dating app. When using something like the Hily app, you can carefully curate a selection of people you would like to spend time with based on similar views and interests. This definitely makes any first meet-ups a whole lot easier, and most people on these sites will be in a very similar situation to you!
