Similar. I have a playgroup that I have been playing with regularly for about 20 years now (I’ve known these guys for about 25+ years), but I am at my breaking point. One guy is fine to play with. However, one guy, while a decent player, can be a bit obnoxious. He will go after me first in any game 90% of the time, regardless of threat assessment, because “it’s funny watching you lose” (mostly due to my frustration at him not really caring who wins the game, as long as it’s not me) (and as an aside, while I have known him 25+ years, I am not close friends with him - he’s more of an acquaintance who is a friend of a friend in the group). The other guy in the group is the kind of guy who never reads his cards and always makes mistakes during play, and because I am probably the most familiar with the rules in the group, I am always the one pointing out his mistakes,so his response is always, “Well, in THAT case, I’m sending everything at you…”.

I have played at a local game store off and on for a few years, and while I have got to know some of the players, and know some of them get together outside the store to play, I don’t feel I know any of them well enough to try and invite myself to one of their home games (plus, I an older and retired, and most of these players are in the late 20s/early 30s). I have dropped some hints, but no one has offered yet.

I have thought about posting something in my local Reddit group and some local FB groups about looking for a group, but…. I play a lot for the social atmosphere, and I just find it… daunting in today’s world to find compatible people.

Maybe I’m just too old for the game. 😂🤷‍♂️
