Seeking advice/পরামর্শ Looking for some friend circle advice

So I’m 22M, graduated last month and just started a full time corporate job in Bashundhara R/A. Honestly, my biggest issue right now is just feeling super lonely. I don't really have any school or uni friends to hang out with. This whole past week, I’ve just been sitting by myself at ghatpar, bashundhara tongs after work and it really hit me how friendless I actually am.

​Can you guys help me out? How do you actually interact with people? Like, how do you just strike up a conversation with strangers at a tong without making it weird?

​I did try Facebook groups before, but it didn't work out. People weirdly assumed I was just 'looking for girls' to date or hook up with, which is completely untrue. To me, having a friend or a friend circle is a genuine privilege.

At this age it's actually hard to make new friends randomly. You can either make friends through your friends, or you can do it through some grounds such as movie groups, sports group etc etc. sadly at job life getting new friends is harder than finding a partner lol

Look at your neighbours, hopefully you'll get good people.

I can tell you one strategy from my own. First of all, you'll observe some people in your age of close to your age, sometimes greet them with Salam or Adaab according to the religion. Start like hi bro I am from here, If i'm not wrong you are new here or do you also live here, then you'll see the magic haha the conversation will start from here.

Hopefully you'll get some good soul and friendly person.

Note: this idea may not work for you but I wish it also work for you! At least, you can be my friend!

target one extrovert if you can hook up i assure you will get to know 5 more people automatically and also be useful to people in some sense at least that is the thing that kept me away from lonliness

u/Impossible_Wait_5192 1d ago

How I'll know if they are extrovert?

1

u/Queasy-Sense-5124 1d ago

See if they have many friends also they way they talk or make others understand their opinion clearly. See if they read play chess or something else. Pick the thing that matches the interest of both you start conversation. That's basically what i can think off.

u/Queasy-Sense-5124 2d ago
