It is easiest to make new friends when you consistently see the same people day after day. Think back over the times in your life when you had friends -- most likely you were spending lots of time with the same people. It also helps if these individuals share your values, beliefs and interests. Use this information to nurture new friendships, by signing up for a course or class that interests you and that will have you meeting with the same people regularly over an extended period of time, recommends psychologist Daniel J. Tomasulo, in the Psych Central article "Friendless and Alone." For example, you might join a book club, take an acting class or participate in a co-ed volleyball league. Activities that are fun or that require you to get to know each other will make it easiest to make new friends.
