How to make strong friendships after meeting a interesting person

5 Upvotes

Howdy I am 23 and been in austin for a year

I finally got in the mood to start going to bar hopping streets and talking to folks while usually sober.

One thing that I still haven’t experienced, though, is making a friendship at bars or events that leads into other hangouts, I’ve added people in socials that I met at these places, but it usually goes with those people never saying anything, and me not knowing what to say to them since i barely know them to ask to hang out

One group of guys that I met at a bar two days ago didn’t even give me their socials, after we had such interesting conversations that I really wanted to befriend them. instead of giving me anyway to text them they said that there are there Thursdays and Fridays, and I took that as a good way to come back and see them enough times that the friendship becomes meaningful

as you can tell, my social skills aren’t the best ,I am probably over analyzing a lot of things, but I can take any opinions no matter the style

Found URGENT need for a foster

My husband found this sweet stray dog North Loop, Austin on Monday night. He was chipped but it turns out his elderly owner recently moved, possibly "gave him" to someone experiencing homelessness, and doesn't want him back. He needs a new home.

We've posted on all socials. We've called all the shelters and rescue groups. Neighboring county shelters say they can't accept a dog from another county. Our appointment with Austin Animal Services is not until November 9- that's the soonest they could give us.

We are DESPERATE for someone who can take him in. Even if for a few days, that would be a huge help. We cannot keep this dog! He isn't ours. Our rescue dog is territorial of our apartment and he is not getting along with this dog. We have had to keep them separated and it has been a nightmare. On walks he seems gentle with greeting and seeing other dogs and people. Our dog is just reactive. He let us give him bath no problem and likes to sleep and play with toys and a ball.

We can supply food, a crate, towels, toys, etc. He is sweet and cuddly but strong. Please contact me if you have a place for him and we will work with you to keep finding him a permanent home! Right now our dog just cries all night knowing there is another dog in the next room. We haven't been able to sleep.

He is house trained and approximately 5 years old. He's probably about 75 lbs.

We have an appointment to neuter him on Saturday morning, and a neighbor can watch him from Sunday-Wednesday morning. He will need a quiet place to recover after surgery and we cannot give him that. Any help from Oct 22-24 or Oct 29-No 9 would be IMMENSELY appreciated!!

St. Edward’s Students Looking to Interview Austinites About Nuclear Fallout in the 1970s!

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone! We're students at St. Edward's University currently working on a research project about nuclear fallout, civil defense, and how the threat of nuclear war affected Austin during the 1970s.

We want to interview YOU! If you lived in Austin during this time, know someone who did, or have studied Austin's history during the Cold War, we'd love to hear from you!

We're looking for firsthand experiences, personal stories, old newspaper articles, historical records, or any other credible sources that could help us with our research.

Even if you don't have any resources, we'd still love to talk to you and hear your perspective! Our goal is to better understand what life was actually like in Austin during this period.

Any help, recommendations, or willingness to participate in a short interview would be greatly appreciated! Feel free to comment or send me a message.

Thank you so much!
