| | | Meeting new ppl? Hey peeps... a newbie here ( geoexpat.com and HK )
Having issues with making friends.
Do people really meet up over the net, friendship-wise? I met up with this one person, however he actually wanted something else! And there are a few others who I have spoken to, only, who Im gathering is just about the same. Its flattering and all, but Im sure some people can agree, a girl needs her friends.
I came over, litterally on my own.. and now I feel I want to go back to UK..Im missing out on my social life.. | |

| | | Yup Mina, the 2nd time i went (2 years ago) i met 6 or 7 people and now we have been close friends. its held in a pub so you just meet fellow BBC's.
the crowd can be a hit and miss. 60% of the time its the same crowd.
i still sometimes go to take people there. i should be popping in on friday. letme know if you want to go, i can introduce you to the organiser. | All times are GMT +8. The time now is 09:54 PM. | |
