I am trying not to sound like a loser here…here’s the situation: I went away to school and while at school I hung out with tons of people, when I graduated I came back home(NYC) and the only friends I had were 2 guys I’ve known since childhood. All of my friends from school are basically scattered around the country. Now that my 2 friends at home have serious GFs, they are hardly around and the girl I’m dating can’t see me as much as I would like, (regardless I don’t want her to feel smothered). There is no one my age that I could hang out with at work, and I’m looking for some advice on how I can meet new people to go out/hang out with. Anyone want to share their 2cents??
Here are Dozers 3 simple steps to meeting new people.
1- Buy some kind of respectable low budget muscle car…Mustang (personal fav) camaro, vette, TA…either classic or 80’s just not new unless u got serious cash.
2- Work on your car or have someone work on it…paint and some serious peformance parts.
3- go to the track and race, when you’re not racing go to car shows, and on weekends find the local car clubs.
I realize this isn’t excatly what your looking for, but Dozer prides himself on being unconventional. Not to mention I love racing and I’ve meet lots of cool people just driving around town. Cars are something a great deal of people are interested in so I’m used to having total strangers (guys or girls) just come up to me and ask about what I’ve done to it…also meet a few really cool cops…but thats a story for another time.

Get some hobbies dude. I started Martial arts, music, and cigar smoking club. You will not meet people in your damn house. Find some interests and talk to people who have that in common. Another option if you are painfully shy is to join a singles club just for the companionship however your girl may get way pissy about that.
ummmmkay, Dozer (lol)…
Tony, you’re in NYC, the greatest city in the world, the most populated metropolis, you’ve got bars, clubs, gyms, parks, cultural events, I could go on and on…if you’re fresh out of college and starting a new job, there should be some young people there, or some friday happy hour to go to…it’s up to you bro…
whats your interests? I mean how can someone recomend somewhere for you to go if they don’t know what you like to do? If you are shy don’t bother going to clubs cause you won’t have any fun anyway. If you don’t like … don’t go there either. just do things you like to do but try to be around people if you can stand it. and always keep your word, even about the littlest thing, don’t matter if you tell someone the stupidest thing, if you say it keep your word and you will make friends.I have always been a person that has had a handfull of REAL friends sure I know alot of people but I don’t consider them “friends”, friends will bail you out if you need it, they’ll help you out when the other people who call themselves your friends say “uh, I’m bussy” keep the numbers low and the quality high and in my opinion you will be better off. oh yea and get a mustang(?)
peace
bro, you got that much time on your hands? where do you find it? Go to the gym, make friends there. Find another part-time job. Go back to school. Go to the park and compete in sports. Go to Church, meet nice people there. I wish i had more time to play. I live in NYC also. laters pk
Hold on a sec - I’m confused here…are there two Dozers? I mean who’s this other Dozer that Dozer’s always talking about? Can someone please straighten this out for me? (LMAO)
Just kiddin’ big guy. sorry for the OT.
(Back OT)…Good advice for ya - sports/cultural events are always good options, especially if you can find some that you’re good at/know about. Good luck.
