I could do without X (formerly twitter) because I only look in when it’s slack on the forum. I don’t do any other social network sites at all they are too high maintenance…However! If OFC closed down suicide would be the best option…You are the only friends I have since I retired. And perhaps the odd neighbour…

Lonely from Doncaster… :frowning_with_open_mouth:

Try and revive the working men’s clubs. Great social life in those …or there used to be.

Join the U3A walks. Some groups are for amblers and strollers but all sorts of fitness levels are catered for. Another social occasion.

Edit: There’s a cycling group too.

I really only use social media as a platform for my photography. I guess if it wasn’t around, I would find some other means. I existed happily enough before social networks existed and I guess I would carry on without them. It wouldn’t drastically change my life as much as those whose lives are totally depend on it.

Sad to hear that you are lonely.
There are other over 50’s sites that may fill the gap.

If the social networks were no longer functioning, I’d do just what I used to do. Call friends, go to lunch, pick up my phone for a short catch up chat with several of my buddies. Go to the library. Volunteer at the local historical assn, do a daily walk in the park…oh wait.
I’m still filling my days doing all of the above. So, I’d be doing crosswords this evening. Lots to do fill my time, always.
