Hi all
I am struggling with meeting new people also. I have been here a year and do not have any social life at all, mainly because I am not very outgoing (until you know me!) and therefore not good at joining clubs etc. I am in my early 40s, mum to one 16 year old with a full social life, and husband who is very understanding but doesn't get much time off. I think I am starting to get depressed.
Anyone got any ideas? Much appreciated.

i reckon joining sports club is the best way to meet people but i also notice that most of us r too lazy to go out to meet new people or scared of meeting someone you dont know.
well, seems there are quite few of us feeling the need to get to know more friends, i reckon Brit Wit should organize a nite out for all the girls....dinner or drinks!!??
what do you think Brit Wit???

I joined the American and Australian clubs when I first arrived. I also joined the paddle club and learnt how to dive through ProDive (I was terrified :). This provided me with a great range of new people to meet and led to some wonderful friendships.

Since you are a wit, might I suggest the open mike nights at TakeOut Comedy at 34 Elgin Street, every Tuesday at 8 pm; or take a standup comedy class with Jami Gong (there's one this October 11). I've done it, lots of fun, you meet FUN people! They've got shows there every Friday and Saturday nights at 9:30, too.

Hi,
well like everybody else here i find it very difficult to get to meet people. i have only been in hk 3 months but my social life is non existant. like you britwit everybody i know is married and have other priorities! i have never been into team sports so this makes joining sports clubs difficult. any suggestions more than welcome.

I've also been in HK for quite some time and still find it difficult to meet friends. I'd love to find a circle of friends to meet on a regular basis. If anyone's interested in meeting for movies, drinks, etc or if you have anything organised, do PM me.

Hey girls why don’t we meet up? I always thought I am the only one with this problem…
Here’s my side of the story, maybe its post holiday depression or it could be something else… I have been feeling quite depressed these days. Feeling alone in this big city… It looks like I belong here (I was born here, but I moved to New Zealand at 14) but I don’t, I made some local friends here but I simply don’t feel we share the same values. I miss going out with girlfriends, talk and laugh… PM me if you want to meet up for dinner, lunch (central Mon-Fri), try salsa (I want to try but not motivated enough to go alone), shopping, talk, hike, try out different things ^.^

hi all, nara and i will meet tomorrow night for drink/coffee, pls pm me if you are interested to join! cheers

Hi ladies,
Some of my friends are members in Hong Kong American Women's Association. It's a voluntary organisation with lots of activities and you can make friends there!!
Next Thu there will be a charity bazaar at Jockey Club, Happy Valley. I was there last year and it was great fun! There were many vendors, occupying three floors and some special events. And lots of expats are there too! Check it out at: www.facebook.com/awahk
Hope this info will help you to look for friends :)
