There are a huge number of social organizations available. Everything from clubs that go to restaurants and sample different food and wine, to clubs catering to mountaineering snow sports, movie, dance, to classes in pottery, gardening, model building, evening classes schools, churches and well you name it. You live in population dense area. Pick something you like and find a social group, club, or school that serves that interest. Sometimes the goal is less to learn than to simply put yourself in a social setting. Best use of the opportunity and all that.
Thanks for the advice. I have looked into local social clubs, none cater to memebers my age. All of the ski clubs for example require the memeber to be at least 25, or at least those that I have found. Another thing is my lack of free time. The week is shot for me, and the weekend is spent recooperating from the week, and maintaining existing relationships. Another factor is cost. It seems that every dollar I maked is already ear marked for something else. I guess this is a reality of life.
