How the hell do I make new friends?

[spiritual dreams]

After graduating from uni, I now have no social life. I'm still looking for jobs while my school friends have their lives sorted out with great social lives and relationships. I also find myself no longer being able to connect with my friends after getting into spirituality, since my values have drifted so far away from theirs.

 

How do I meet new people? Especially people that are into spirituality?

 

Can I use law of attraction to manifest a social life?

That’s weird to hear honestly. My relationships have only gotten deeper and funner.

How did or do spirituality and values prevent your friendships from evolving and you from having fun and hanging out with them? 

 

Loa wise, it’s not something you start doing or use really, it’s more a noticing what is already the case. 

Focus more on wanted, swiftly let go of unwanted. 

 

Meeting new people is usually easiest with shared interests. Avenues like Meetup.com etc might be helpful. Sounds like you have friends you could connect with already as well though.

Well they aren't very spiritual and a lot of their beliefs conflict with mine.

That really does work best if your at the same function (like a wedding or art show) or all doing an activity, which is what "meet-up" provides. 

 

 

Just don't get why everyone is always in a rush to do things instead of having a conversation outside of events

Imo spirituality is synonymous with the path, or, the investigation of what is absolutely true. This inherently includes the inspection and therein dispelling of all beliefs. Relationships & friendships are made simple when there isn’t the defending of beliefs and don’t mind at all anyone believing in anything.

It seems really easy and effective. I searched something like guitar & singing and drove only 20 minutes to hang out with 6 dudes on acoustics singing harmonies. It was a lot of fun. Tons of different activities on there, and friendship wise it tends to naturally branch off from the activities.

It just isn't as easy as that with a lot of ppl. It's not the conversation part necessarily, but finding someone you might have stuff in common with to have a conversation. I suppose if you hang out at a coffee shop several times a week you might find a couple. 🤷‍♀️

Lol it is all fun and games, I want to go to the beach on a rainy day and pick up attractive girls sunbathing. We can talk about stones because the beach will be filled with pebbles. No thoughts will appear and I will ask her if she wants to get stoned, hopefully she doesn't take it the wrong way lol

@Eternal oh, if your talking about "friends" of the opposite sex, then yeah, that may be easier. I was thinking of same sex friends. 

 

I used to have guy friends but they bullied me. Yeah I need to probably have some guy friends. It'l be good motivation and accountability. Maybe I should just make friends at the gym or something.
