How to cope with moving/ living alone.
So I just moved out for the first time. I'm 21 and am going to be finishing up school rather soon. I actually lived in London for a semester, but I was studying with my school and was with tons of kids and made friends immediately.
I just moved from the suburbs of San Francisco to beachside San Diego. I've always been a water kid, love scuba diving, surfing, and being active. However, I'm feeling a disattchment from the city or something similar.
My most obvious problem is not having any friends here. My girlfriend and I hang out every day, and we're great buds, but you simply can't hang out with the same person, no matter who they are, all of the time without contact with others.
What are good ways to get on? I've been keeping busy with setting up my apartment. School doesn't begin until September. I'm looking into finding some local scuba and surf clubs, but I'm yet to do this. I'm finding urges to buy some new video games and get my TV fixed so I can get some new DVD's, but I know this isn't the correct and healthiest thing to do.
Any advice? I'm generally hanging in here, so this isn't a call for help. Rather I'm just looking to strike up some convo with anyone else who's been through this kind of thing before, I know it's common.
Thanks guys, take care.
