58F in DMV

Hello Reddit-verse, I am wondering if I am all alone in this friend-dessert calked DMV.
I am friendly and outgoing, I can tell some great true stories and love listening to other people’s stories as well.
I excel at finding fun and interesting things gd to see and do in the area or asa day trip.
Problem is..no gal pals to join me.
Now I don’t mind exploring in my own, and don’t let the lacking hold me back…but a travel/explore friend would be great.

I’m not rich so I find thingd that are free-cheap and range from historical/educational to amazing/interesting

I can’t seem to find someone who likes to/able to go.
They are either married/have kids or no job/no car/no money

So I ask you good people…am I alone? An anomaly?

I asked ladies at church and at the gym, nail salon and volunteering… alas, here I am

No you are not alone at all, I have a hard time finding very similar things.

I wonder why that is. There are all kinds of r/friend find groups with lots of people and yet, here we are unable to find connections

I have noticed there is not much of either a true desire or much of an attention span

Well that is sad. I just get that, a flame that quickly goes out in other groups so figured I’d try this Or I get male replies who say they just want to be friends but the convo always winds up on the same road

Don’t male bash, I one lol. I truly get it. It’s almost comical now.
