I am an introvert as well and have to work hard at meeting people.

I too have met people from this board and enjoyed each and every visit.

One thing I did that helped was to reintegrate with family by becoming the family historian/genealogist. My family is very very large and spread across the world, so it became a real focus of mine to reintegrate as many of my family together as possible. I had many discussions with older family members to gather names, numbers etc. I created a Family group on Facebook and did my DNA to connect with others. I have literally met over 200 new people this way that I never met before and my FB group has become a hub for family activity. I have also helped people who did their DNA just to find the family they belong to, connect, with many happy endings, and errr, a few that werent LOL. The tree is almost at 3000 family members right now!! Family can be friends!
