Maybe join clubs like running or something along that line to meet people?

Facebook groups and search for websites that help you find groups, esp around shared interests. Also if you can afford it going to a class like yoga pottery squash can help. Or see if there are any sports leagues

If you’re 21, I would recommend just meeting people at bars. That would solve your age difference problem.

Try looking through Facebook and see if there’s anything there. Go to dog parks if you have dogs. I know it’s really hard, but you’ll find something

And how do I meet people at the bar? What do I even say? Hey I don’t. I have any friends can you be my friend? I don’t think that works
