A while back I saw a counsellor who suggested that I joined a club or take classes to meet people. I was very hesitant at first and it took me over a year to pluck up the courage to do it.
I finally started art classes and although I didn't make any real friends it did give me a sense of belonging / companionship and I learnt to paint (although my skill is a matter of debate).
Later I decided to learn French and took evening classes. I met the most incredible people there and even managed to make a few friends and we still meet up on occasion. I've stopped the French classes for now but still think it was worth the effort.
I was just wondering if anyone else joined clubs or took classes to get out and what your experiences were.
