I know the most common advice is to join local groups/clubs, but my town seems to only have religious, DnD, and MtG groups publicly posted, and as much as I’ve tried I just can’t get into playing DnD/MtG
Does anyone have any app recomendations they’ve had luck with, or other advice?
Are there any climbing gyms or bicycle rides?
^ chill folks that will likely be into a variety of things you might also be. will be helpful and nurture the stoke
They really are! I’ve brushed against these climbing communities before and long been drawn to go (for many reasons haven’t). Why is this? Why does it seem like this attracts chill people?
Lately I’ve realized I need to get back into some sport again, whether that’s pick-up soccer, racquetball, climbing or something… Good for the soul. Too old for hockey now, I think lol.
my experience with climbers is they are anti-chill, and they have like nothing else going on in their life other than climbing and treat it like a religious cult. so i avoid them now.
I first thought it may be some of the common reasons or qualities possessed by the people that seek or find climbing, but it might also be what is learned through climbing… you build strength, practice trust, patience, safety, care, curiosity, likely an adventurous spirit. Usually attracts people that are generally interested in the outdoors or earth, which apparently are often just kind, open-minded individuals. Many people trying to find themselves or just better themselves. May just be going for stoke.
this is precisely why i avoid climbers. they have this holier than thou mentality.
