Re:how do homebodys twobeautifulkids: I don't know. And I haven't figured out how to give off the "I'm single" vibe either. Then again, I know I'm really not quite ready for that yet. But I am a homebody.
Re:how do homebodys Shanna: I am also a homebody even before I had kids. I would rather have people over than go out with them. I haven't had any luck making friends here in this little town. I tried to find friends online in my local area, but it didn't work out.
Re:how do homebodys jason: Mike;
If you look up the definition of home body in the dictionary, you will find my picture... ;D
....I was an honest to God farmer in my former life; went to town for groceries once a week on Saturday morning and except for my wife, interacted with nothing but older males. When she left, I really didn't see a lot of hope in my situation. How does a farm boy meet women, especially one who wouldn't run screaming from my chosen livelihood .... ???
Well, fast forward 19 months, and I just remarried. Met her online, in fact, in a forum you are becoming familiar with. Wouldn't have dreamed it in a million years, but here I am.
It will work out for you, of that have no doubt. You may not recognize where you will be in a couple of years, heaven knows I'd have never guessed, but it will work out.
All the best
Jason
Re:how do homebodys Aerophis: Meeting people is a pain! Even for a person who lives in the suburbs or city, if you aren't into going to clubs or bars (or the type of people your likely to meet there), meeting people can be quite troublesome. I'm with the person earlier who suggested volunteering or possibly joining a club or organization related to something you enjoy. The more you get out and get involved, the more people you will meet, and the more likely you are to find someone.
This isn't exactly second nature to a homebody, believe me, I know. But its either this or match.com =0)
Good Luck!
Re:how do homebodys jimloveless: i was a homebody. i think i still may be to some degree; spreading out on a couch and watching a movie is a perfect way to spend a sunday afternoon, in my opinion.
but i've realized that it's not conducive to meeting people. i want friends in a bad way, and so i've joined a gym and i go to a local coffee shop on a nightly basis just to get out a little. my new bike helps, too.
in doing so, i've realized that i'm fairly personable and i can hold my on in conversation. these are things i always doubted before. there's nothing wrong with being a homebody; i just really really wanted change in my life and at 28, i think i'm a little young to be locking myself away from the world (i was an EXTREME homebody... a gamer).
sold off my gaming PC's three weeks after she left and haven't touched the Xbox in a month or so.
i've met people and made a few new friends. i've also come to realize how important socialization can be. there's no need to feel lonely when i can bust on down to the shop and sip on a coffee while chatting to the waitress.
i tried online chatrooms, but all i could find were people who wanted to 'cyber'. good luck man. i'd just suggest, if it's possible, to just try a little variation and get out a bit. it actually grew on me. i'm not what you'd call a social butterfly, but it always helps me to see people talking and smiling.
