Looking for friends and potential hobby outlets in / around Darmstadt
I'm natively german but writing this post in english because I'm very open and happy to make both german and english speaking friends. I would also be thankful for any tips on where I could go to find likeminded people and an outlet for my hobbies and interests.
Now about myself and what I am looking for, I am (F,28) a massive social butterfly, but I'm also an involuntary introvert. I struggle to warm up to people, which is why I much prefer being able to chat with people first and ease into calls, until meeting up and hanging out. I'm looking for fun, humor and banter, but also for someone I can have deep and meaningful conversations with and can open up to. When it comes to hanging out, I like doing small things here and there, such as going out for coffee or dinner, walks and similar but I'm also open to some new things here and there. I'd also be ecstatic to find a girl bestie I could potentially go to the gym with, as I've been wanting to for a long time but want to go in company. I value deep social connections a ton and I'm looking for open and likeminded people.
As for hobbies and interests, I'm a bit of a nerd in my own time. Whether that's playing around with music production, DJing, 3D model creation, VR things or video games. I am also very interested in playing billiards/pool socially as a hobby, but would not only be awful at it as I've never done it, but also don't know where to go for this and afraid as it can be a bit overwhelming for me to put myself into a situation with people I have never talked to and even more so when it's a group of them.
I'd be happy for any replies and even some tips on what I could do or where I could go to find people! 😄
Replies can obviously be in both german and english, it really doesn't matter.
