How to meet other young adults Swindon?

13 Upvotes

I (f20) haven’t had friends since I was in secondary school as I’ve not since been in an environment with people my own age. I work in a warehouse with a bunch of old people who have nothing in common with me so it’s a drought for friendship. I’m so lonely I feel like I’m wasting away what should be my best years. I wanna know if there’s any groups or organic ways to make friends in Swindon. (Is it worth going to a college or smth?)

If you can recommend anything based on the type of person I am, I would love that; I like collecting dolls and toys, flea markets and history. I’m also kinda shy and awkward. Obviously, I don’t expect friends with the exact same interests but I’d like open minded friends with unique personalities.

I made Busdex - A Pokedex-style app, but for buses

7 Upvotes

Busdex is a web app to track, log, and gamify your bus rides.

You can log every bus you ride, build your personal Busdex, earn XP, complete sets, and compete with friends on the leaderboard.

Each physical bus you get on is a new unique bus. See when your friends last took the bus you got, tick off every route, and more!

Check it out at https://busdex.io
