The city is currently providing a set for a TV show for free, as well as the talent. That’s a pretty profitable enterprise for whoever runs the show, and normally a show would incur all those costs. Why can’t the city charge their fair share? Idk maybe use it to fund a driver education program! This place needs one.

If you are good with animals, volunteer at a place like the Potter league. If you have other interests, look for places where you can meet people with similar interests. I guess it depends where you are but most places have some kind of meetups and groups. Doesn’t need to be a bar. See if any authors are reading in town or near by and read the book and go to the reading. Often people mingle after and you’ll have something to talk about if you like the book.

My Social Sports or Super Fun Activities Club. Play some social sports and then go out for drinks after as a group (SFAC is even more low-key).

Don’t listen to that poster, tons of people still meet SO’s in person

You gotta make yourself have a level of confidence and charisma. I know it’s bad for you, social smoking circles outside bars are great places to start conversation. Find a bar with darts or pool tables. Bring a book to a bar and look around

If you don’t drink (or smoke) you can still do all these things with soda waters or N/A beers

For PVD bars:

Ogies, The Eddy, Wild Colonial, Hot Club, The Eddy, Slow Rhode

The fact that there are 10+ people looking at this thread is proof enough that this is a huge issue in RI. We really do need spaces (other than bars) for meeting people in person!
