I saw it a few days ago - in the fridge near the tofu, all the way to the right, after the produce.

I adore Rock Spot in Wakefield, but have not bumped into anyone too friendly while climbing. It’s too bad, I’d love more climbing friends

I recommend looking at what Meetups are out there. Hiking, paddling, walking, etc. - I’ve met good friends in those.

401 Run! We run at Gansett Brewery every Wednesday night at 6! It's a blast. This time of year brings some lights, some bright clothes, and come hang! No need to drink after. They also run in Wayland on Thurs nights, and Garden City in Cranston on Tues I think

I think the providence location is much more conducive to making friends. The Lincoln location seems to be very slow in my experience, and a higher proportion of the people going are parents with kids.

Providence bike jam

I’ve seen it at urban greens in the past as well as all the other places people have mentioned

Super Fun activities club does lots of different adult recreational sport leagues, super chill and a great way to meet people. Soccer, volleyball, dodgeball etc

I’ve found quite a few at my yoga studio

Trust me indoor roller skating

Just curious, what did you expect and what’s been the reality?

Market Basket in N Attleboro has it in their international aisle

What do you think the issues are compared to other places you've been

If you're interested in stimulating conversion, I 49m and a buddy hang at Plant City coffee house in the evening. We don't talk about sports, video games, or topics of popular culture, mostly intellectual and the philosophical. Good luck!

I was 33, had drifted away forn friends from form my adolescents. Had know idea if I'd ever meet new people. Started frequenting a coffee house, and found a whole new social circle. Of course cafes are known for drama and clickey, but least not alcohol drama. I 49m am always looking for new people to add to my social circle. There is always interesting conversations to have. I find myself at the Coffee Exchange and Plant City at night Good luck!

I was gonna suggest this, I got to the PVD location, but only just started

The dispensary

the Y on Hope St has day care

I'm moving to Providence in 2 months (living in Newport currently), what I've done in my area is join as many social clubs I can find.

Since you're into fitness I would checkout group fitness classes, intramural sports, dance classes, etc.

There's a running club in Providence called Gansett Run something... I forget exactly, it's on Facebook.

Also there are more than a few social groups on Meetup.com

It's still a bit difficult making friends that way imo. I found most people to be reserved so I had to be more forward than I am used to and ask them to hang out.

Good luck! Try to be patient and have fun with it, you'll make it.

The Edge fitness clubs….

Rock climbing gyms! There is a Rock Spot in PVD that is bouldering only, a Rock Spot in Lincoln, or a Central Rock in Warwick that are all fantastic and full of youthful folk

Try Trader Joe’s.
