I have a thread with the same exact title in the "Advice" sub-forum. But, I decided to bring this up here, because I wanted to get advice from young adults.
What can I do to establish a social network for myself, especially at work because that might help me live easier. Considering I don't have any friends or family here in this entire state?
Also, keep in mind that I have bad people skills. Which is why I am making this thread in the first place.
Before you give any advice, please review the bulleted summary of advice that people gave on my other threads:
Here are my arguments against those:
Any help would be greatly appreciated. With any luck, things will improve for me.
Also, has anyone seen a speech therapist??? I've been wondering if I should go see one. Does anyone think that this will help, or is it just a waste of my money?

- Be nice.
- Volunteer at Homeless Shelters
- Get a hobby
- Go to Starbucks or some place regularly, and become a "regular".
Here are my arguments against those:
- No one cares if you're nice. If you're not careful, people will interpret this as a weakness and walk all over you.
- I have a full time job. I work from 8 to 10 hours a day, I don't have time to volunteer at a homeless shelter.
- What exactly is a "hobby" anyways? Before I started working, I used to program games, and was co-coordinator of 2 open source project. But, I can't make friends that way.
- I used to do that in college. That didn't help either.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. With any luck, things will improve for me.
