How can I meet more people that I'm compatible with?

Question - (8 January 2009) 2 Answers - (Newest, 8 January 2009)
A male South Africa age 41-50, anonymous writes:

Hello, I am writing from South Africa, I am a single, open minded, 25 year old male. I am very easy to get along with, I enjoy going out, theatre, going for dinners, meeting friends for drinks.. etc, enjoy design, and art, however I am craving friendships and I click with people instantly.

I have a simple question pertaining to friends and friendships.

My working hours can be flexible sometimes, and sometimes when work gets hectic my social life takes a knock, my evenings are usually free from after 7:30pm or so.. I do have good friends, but I am craving new social groups, and to meet new people, usually when I do meet new people it is with my existing friends, or friends of theirs, and in the end I feel as though I didn't meet them on my own, or that later on someone says that I don't have my "own" friends or I feel as though I don't have the right to see them if its not with the friend that knew them first?

I'm not too keen on meeting or make friends over an internet site, I'd like to interact with new people face to face.

I know this site is vast when it comes to people from different countries, but does anyone have any ideas for me, or if so someone that is from South Africa or someone that knows more about the social habits similar to this country might be able to give me pointers on how I can meet people that are like minded, interesting, and not be put in a position where I am left feeling like an outsider and on my own with people that are not compatible with me?

How do I make new friends?

Thank you

Your help will be appreciated.

Hello girly69,

Thanks for your answer, I'm in Joburg, where are you from in SA?

I'm looking to make friends that are great, reliable, that they have your back, and friends that become part of your life and people that inturn want to spend time and have fun with you.

Friends that you can learn from and when everyone is together you feel inspired by everyones energy and want to be the best you can be and feel and drive to make their lives fun, exciting and successful.

People that value each other when they can see you are a genuine real person, and that they are not only your friends for face value but because their is a friendship.
