At the moment, I play DnD online, I'm active in the Party for Socialism and Liberation, and I use dating apps. I also make a point to get lunch at a pub at least once a week (usually no one talks to me, but it's nice to just be around other people), and of course there's work.

I've been trying to convince the PSL Liberation Center committee to let me run a game night at the Liberation Center every other week, which should also be a nice way of meeting people.

When the weather clears I also like to go on walks at the park.

I guess something to understand about the modern world we live in is that the vast, vast majority of our interactions with others are superficial. Having close friends other than romantic partners is rare (especially for men), and if you don't have any, it's normal, you aren't failing in some way.
