If you've got a baby w/ you you don't seem like a weirdo, right? :)Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07980526241734909900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6541804.post-78530896392052646182008-03-09T18:04:00.000-05:002008-03-09T18:04:00.000-05:00Trying to make friends once you're out of school s...Trying to make friends once you're out of school sucks. Even without extenuating circumstances like kids. :(<BR/><BR/>At this point you don't need to find people you love to hang out with if what you want is some socialization time for the kiddo, but it will definitely help if you can find other geeky people who understand where you're coming from. There must be some out there, so don't give up! <BR/><BR/>As silly as it sounds, you might try posting a flier at Pegasus and trying to arrange a group of gamer geek parents to hang out. Even if all you can get is ladies who are married to gamer geeks, at least you'll have a little more in common with them. :)Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08461424837432543274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6541804.post-28763266582498980962008-03-09T17:24:00.000-05:002008-03-09T17:24:00.000-05:00It's never easy, at any time, I think to put yours...It's never easy, at any time, I think to put yourself out there and forge new relationships, especially when you already have a core social circle it's <I>very</I> easy and safe to just stick with that and not stick one's neck out and go to corny-ass socializing event with strangers (see: me and dating. Also I'm terribly introverted, so I don't know how people do it. I always think I seem to make friends by accident because I am not a gregarious friend making type.)<BR/><BR/>I think, though, thanks to the Internetz it's a bit easier for weirdos to find one another. Maybe start a Meet-Up group or something! You always run the risk of associating with real weirdos - you know the ones. But it's hit or miss, but sometimes it works out. <BR/><BR/>Some of us do want to hang out with you more often! We just live a bit far away from each other:(K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10685935004988095531noreply@blogger.com
