Finding it hard to meet new friends

I find it hard to meet new people i dont drink or smoke i am self employed so dont get much spare time would like to meet some lady friends for real friendship , someone to talk to, someone who maybe cares ? any suggestions

Be active a little..maybe it would work
I mean get yourself out home and see places like crazy
I'm sure you will find your princess that way
Sincerely,
Laura

Join a gym, or actually... join anything... get out of the house, walk up to people. make friends through the friends you already have
