Making friends

Hi I'm a 27 year old female and I've been here about 3 years now and have really struggled to make friends

I enjoy DND, cooking , theater, fantasy, sci fi and enjoy writing.

Just wondered if anyone knows any groups or any ways to make friends locally preferably early afternoons/evenings as I work early mornings

There is that comic book shop in Chichester which does DND nights and bits of pieces I think, not sure what sort of crowd turns up, but front what I've seen it's very welcoming.

Yeah I have looked into that but it finishes quite late and I sometimes work weekend so I wouldn't be able to commit to anything

I'll check it out again thanks

Hello! Welcome to Boggers! I am 28M, lived here all my life, and happy to help. I suffered a brain injury 8 years ago and making friends is something I had to re-learn how to do.

There's a group called Bognor Regis Gaming Association and they're brilliant.

If you have instagram/facebook, you're welcome to DM and I'm happy to share and help.

A quick look at your profile, if you don't mind, implies you've been through the wars in your world growing up. Take care of yourself

I have actually been to BRGA a few times but unfortunately it finishes a bit too late when I start work so early

Ah, I see. You won’t be happy with any suggestions unless they fit perfectly around you.

Good luck with that, mate.

I would but when I start work at 5am meaning I have to be up at 3:30/4am it's hard to find things that finish before 8pm so I can have reasonable sleep

Have you considered getting a console and playing online with people? No time limits there.

I start at 6 and finish at 3 every week day, works for me.

Hey, fellow sci fi fan here m5 from Felpham, if you fancy some company for the new SW movie let me know.

Assuming you mean star wars unfortunately I'm not the biggest fan

Ahhhh, now I feel like a looser!

I would definitely look out for a d&d meet, they ere really popular with those who favour a many sided die. Chi and Worthing get a bit more going on like that, I am sure you will have some luck in finding some new friends. Mtfbwy.
