As an alternative:

* Go ballroom dancing. * Go square dancing. * Go to the library and read their historical non-fiction primary sources (letters and journals). * Go to church (I'm serious, even if you are an atheist). * Go roller skating at a rink. * Go ice skating. * Go paint balling. * Go to a water park. * Go to your HOA/City/County board/commissioners meetings. * Go to your state legislature meetings. * Go to a volunteer firefighters informational meeting. * Go to a plant/flower (orchid/African violate) growers club. * Go to a sewing club. * Go to a fishing class or just fish. * Go to a hunting/gun class or just hunt/shoot.

Lol'ed at this. Imagine literally hunting for a new friend

You don't go into the forest with a gun because you crave human company

your interpretation made me chuckle. the most dangerous game style

i know a lot of hunters and in my experience they are needy for human company. id say a bit more than average but like anything it depends on the individual. hunters REALLY like show-and-telling hunting. same with fishers. i find these relationships are often based on various degrees of macho posing (not always!)
