Has anyone ever moved out on their own and even if they have a job or whatever they go to and people they talk to at said job or maybe not a job (My case i psych rehab.) and maybe they can socialize there, but when you're not there you don't really know where else to go for socialization or to meet new friends or go with anyone to hang out. Or even find a partner? It'd be one thing if this town had places I could go that wasn't a bar, i guess. But I have been living on my own for almost a year and I go to this group and I go home. I go get groceries and such, but nothing else. Forget dating sites. Hardly anyone nearby and I don't have a car. What I'm getting to is this growing sense of loneliness. It's like the more I'm on my own the more I get this feeling where I just want to hug someone, etc. It can get to the point where I dare not say what else I do with myself alone. (nothing real harmful I must say) My craving for female companionship keeps getting larger. I happy most of the time and sad very rarely, but that doesn't stop the growing cravings. And yes the cravings can include something else...

joining a club or some sort of activity where you meet people would help you build a social circle (you would' t even necessarily meet girls in the club but you might be introduced to them through friends that you make from the club.

I moved out on my own, done it for about a year now, I'm 27

To be honest I don't make friends at work, it's very rare if I do, I try to keep work separate to social life

If you have 1-2 social friends ask them to let you join in their social groups and meet other people, it's what I did, works but you have to keep at it for it to reap benefit.

Partner normally comes after finding friends, worry about that after you have more social contacts.

Find a hobby also, increases chances of social groups and other things.

As for your 'personal' activity, almost everyone does something related to intimate activity, just have a look at this poll statistic http://www.roadtograce.net/current-porn-statistics/

Maybe you should try to communicate online, find friends on the network. And maybe meet a nice girl who will help you learn a new city. Try here https://kovla.com/datings/us/atlanta
