I think you are working too hard in finding the right friend . Give yourself a break ,keep people on your comfy level ,you will automatically find friends of your type sticking to you and the others , going away :-)

Go and volunteer places where community and working together is important... Examples: Church (charismatic churches, not mainstream) Habitat for Humanity Food banks/soup kitchens YMCAs/YWCAs Local youth/community centers You'll get to help others while rubbing elbows with people who care about helping others. The downside is that normally you need a decent amount of free time for it work well.

This might sound like a really passive approach, but when I've tried to find friends, nothing works out. I usually find friends when someone approaches me or a friend introduces me to another friend. Like romantic relationships, friendships form when there's chemistry between two people, and that can't be forced.

The best way to find friends is to do things you enjoy doing. Think about what you want in a friend, and make sure you BE a friend with those qualities. You can't have a friend without being a friend.

Do you have a hobby or something you'd like to know more about? Look in your phone book or city directory and see if there are any places where they meet. A book club is a great way to meet people. If you can't find one, start one and then contact your newspaper and tell them you'd like them to write a story about it. If you can't do that, place an ad in the classified section for people who like what you're interested in. If nothing else, just go to where a group is meeting and sit in the back until you feel like joining in. Good luck.
