I think it’s because of where you are living - South County. It’s a beautiful area with plenty of beaches, but it’s largely suburban and rural which makes it harder to meet people. Folks there already have homes and they are content to stay home and tend to their properties and go out to dinner with friends once in a while. Places like Providence and Newport are much easier to make friends. You can try looking up events and things to do in those areas and see what you can find.

South county represent! I love it here and I’ve found that my friends and groups I’ve made here are fairly solid. I’ve found lots of different friend groups depending on the job/activity/lifestyles you do. What would that be?

You've done all that but still can't make friends?

Maybe RI isn't the problem

Edit woooow op reported me to the reddit suicide hotline. Classy. No wonder you don't have any friends, /u/indianawasthdogsname

The cost of living is that much higher compared to RI? I’ve been there in the late summer and it didn’t seem that bad to me personally. I enjoy when it’s hot in RI

Hm yeah if I move there I wanna have kids there and I don’t want their education to be poor.

I most definitely have experienced poor customer service in Florida. It’s probably the biggest complaint among people I know from there.

Thanks for the info

Yeah I heard it’s a no fault state so if you get in a accident your rate still goes up

Damn 230 is a lot. I pay like 60 now lol

You obviously have more issues than not being able to make friends. Reporting Dopey to the fucking suicide hotline is a bitch move, clearly demonstrating to all why no one wants to be your friend. Do yourself (and us) a favor and go back to Indiana

This isn't even meant to be an insult or a slight at all, but please try therapy. It's helpful. It'll let you vent and learn some shit about yourself. It will help.
