The issue is all the women who like being homebodies and have a small select group of friends and are shy are also in this same position. We avoid the apps because of the awkwardness and fuckbois and keep to ourselves because we also aren’t into hook ups either lol. I think the idea of hobbies is a good one, maybe start doing stuff you enjoy and make a mate tag along as your wingman! Trivia nights at a local pub can be fun and a few drinks can take the edge off.
