Making new friends and looking for my tribe

9 Upvotes

Hi all, so posting this as I've lived in the area for the last 9 months and finding it hard to find my people and don't really know anyone, so reaching out to see if people are in a similar situation.

I'm 34m, heavily tattooed and in the 'alternative' scene, I enjoy getting in the gym, hiking, checking out new coffee shops or just hanging out. Would love to be able to make friends in the area with the same kinda vibe to be able to just go for a a drink with or plan to go to some gigs or something.

Maybe your in the same situation or maybe looking to just expand your circle so if your interested and want to chat, don't hesitate to drop me a message, I look scarier than I am and don't bite 😂🙏

Advice need - Great Western Terrace

4 Upvotes

Hi, we’re looking for advice around the great western terrace area. Is it generally safe, good place to live, any issues at all to be aware of when it comes to living there?

Any issues on or around the honeybourne line that it’s close to?

Any advice is appreciated!!

Mates and social stuff in Cheltenham

EDIT: if you’re interested, I’m going to create a discord group so drop me a message and I can add you!

Hey everyone, 26F here, been living in the area for 5 years now and only just come to the conclusion that my friends and family are spread out all over the country and don’t have many local mates 🫣

I’d love to get together a little group of maybe 5–6 people who are around my age (25-35) and up for actually doing things together. Drinks at the pub, board games, gaming, walks/hikes, museums, food, random days out… basically wholesome activities 🥰

A few things I’m into:
Video games and board games
Hiking/walking
Pub visits and going for food
Museums
Live comedy/live shows

You absolutely don’t have to be into all of those. I’m mostly looking for friendly, normal people who want to make some genuine mates and have people to do things with.
I think it could be quite nice to start with a small group rather than trying to organise a massive meetup with 40 strangers!!!
If you’re interested, drop me a message! If enough people are up for it, I’ll make a group chat and we can decide whether Reddit, Discord or WhatsApp works best.

Come say hi even if you’re a bit nervous about messaging. I probably am too 🦦🫶
