I feel like the only people I know were either my wife's friends or are coworkers. All my coworkers are all females and are married so asking to do something with them seems awkward.

Learning how to live alone again sucks.
Couldn't help but notice you live in Didsbury. Have you tried moving to a be city? A noted professor of psychology wrote a brief piece recently on the positive effect of big city living has on loneliness. Hold on, I'll find a link.

You're welcome.
