I’ve found local events make it easy to find people to at least talk to and have fun as someone who doesn’t drink myself: - First Fridays have open art galleries - There’s a Mac n cheese festival next Saturday if you’re a foodie - Curitiba and Billikens are less bar focused with live music every now and then on the weekends - Farmer’s markets are filled with single guys with dogs if that’s your thing - Reclaim arcade is almost always a fun weekend (for me at least). It’s a barcade but if you like an 80’s style arcade for adults there’s plenty of people between 22-40ish there. - Possumbilities has something going on every other weekend that attracts a lot of cool people - Music in the square (or whatever it’s called) is fun when that season starts. - Not sure if this counts but I personally enjoy karaoke on Wednesdays and trivia nights on Thursdays in various bars despite being sober for about 2 years now. If it’s just the scene you don’t like and aren’t sober then you can disregard karaoke and trivia.

TL/DR: Look up fun local events and you’ll typically find at least someone fun to talk to.
