New to SF, looking to make friends

Aug 24 31 Comments

I graduated recently and moved to SF. Was looking to hang out with other people my age outside of work, mainly on weekends to go clubbing, catch a movie, play basketball, hiking maybe, etc.

Is there like a slack group or something for others who are new and looking to make friends in the area? Or feel free to message me if you’re in a similar situation and would be down for some of the things previously mentioned.

I tried MeetUp but didn’t find what I was looking for really. Also, I prefer hanging with a few chill people than like a giant group.

      Is this a troll or do people actually use that app for not hookups?

    Come down to the Bay Club to play basketball. Most of these guys never played a sport in their life.

    TBH there are many if not more “meetups” on FB groups. You may have better luck there.

    • OP
      Any specific groups you suggest? Most that I see are for housing related things

      Depends on what you’re into, but board games, hiking, book clubs, and “new in town” are all pretty broad enough that you get a range of people joining.

    Try Bumble BFF. Sounds weird but know lots of people who have had some success finding friends with similar interests.
