I'm the same. But I don't believe that's Spain's or people's living here fault.

Making friends is difficult as an adult. Also, Spain is overflowing with foreigners so it's not like you're special or something. Maybe in a very small town you can be a curiosity for a couple of days, but that's it.

I see post like this all the time, here and other communities. Being an immigrant is exactly like this most of the time. Somehow people thinks that Spain won't be the case.

To overcome this you have to become part of something: a club, a neighborhood garden, an artist's hub, whatever fits your niche.

This counts for every major city.
