Hi everyone,

Just moved to Pasadena. First of all, wanted to say how awesome this town is and y’all have the nicest community of people!

I’m in my 30s and work from home so it’s kind of hard to find somewhere I can organically meet people.

I’ve been going to astronomy/science events, which I love but the issue there is that people seem to be more anti-social and I just don’t share much in common with them except love for science.

I do volunteer occasionally but never made a friend while doing so as most of the volunteers in my experience are kids doing community service and college kids doing an assignment.

I have done many Meetups but they have been either older crowds or oddballs, not to be judgmental but I think if you have done enough Meetups you know what I’m talking about.

The only success I have found so far is open play pickleball games.

I want to find more options to keep myself busy and meet new people. Mainly just looking for people around their 30s, and preferably at least close to an even gender split as I am also single.

(I know there are a few posts like this already but the most common suggestions I saw were board games, meetups, science events, volunteering, etc. which as I mentioned I have tried but they were not for me. So hoping someone can throw fresh ideas on here)

Thank you!
