How do I meet new people when I am very reserved?


Recently all of my friends moved and now I have no one. I am reserved and having a hard time meeting people?


I am 20 and have not had a boyfriend for almost 1 year. I am very reserved and have a hard time opening up to people..even my close friends. I am worried too!However I hate going out to bars. How can I meet new people from scratch? This is very hard for me. It's like I want to reach out to people however I feel it is easier to turn inward and become a hermit. I am not lonely but I wouldn't mind meeting new people. I also have trust issues from being let down many times in the past. I plan to move to San Diego in about 2 years from now so that I can start from scratch.

Join a club - if you like books join a book club, gardening - etc. by joining a group you have a shared passion in you automatically have a start at conversation. Once you talk you can see if that person also has other things you enjoy in a person. Little steps - but really join in to a group and you will have a better chance at making friends with the least amount of stress. Good Luck~
