What do people without friends do on weekend nights when they get tired of staying in? I get lonely just spending every weekend by myself, but I also get a lot of anxiety at the idea of trying to engage in nightlife all by myself and feeling like a loser. If anyone has recommendations on things to do or places to go that are a gentle on-ramp to doing things alone and making friends, that would be super appreciated.

For context, I’m a 30 year old single male.
