From your other recent posts it sounds like you're feeling vulnerable at the moment so best to take it slowly and get to know people, perhaps through a shared activity. Have you thought about signing up for some local classes or sports, starting with the What's On section? There's a community exercise group that meets at the cafe on P Rye each Saturday at 10.00am and for coffee afterwards. How about giving that a try?


PS: forgot to say it's free and you don't have to book.

I don't think you will find new friends by asking randomly on here.


Nobody knows your age, gender, interests or anything about you.


All we know is that you live in Dulwich and are sadly recently bereaved.


As has been suggested, a good way to make friends is by joining a group of people who have the same interests as you.


Is there any reason why you don't want to do that?


Also, would it not be easier to do if you got some support first to help you cope with the bereavement? Several people (ETA on your other thread) have suggested ways to do that.


Hugs.

Hi Chuck

I have also tried to help natty a few weeks ago I gave my email address and natty replyed saying do I want to meet up in pub or cafe I said it would be coffee in day time but we could email each other first as I no nothing about natty other than the two theads on forum the bereavement one and making friends

I heard nothing after that lots of people have given help and advice but natty seems to still put things on forum about friends and the bereavement one

I have since wished natty all the best and hope natty gets the help, no one seems to know if natty is male or female I fully understand depression so was surprised natty did not take up offer if chatting through email as natty can put posts on forum

Natty dude, your approach is somewhat challenging. Make some effort worth conversation or you're going to be in the weirdo bin.


Depressed, sad, vulnerable or whatever, you're fit enough to post and start new threads.


So start communicating beyond the one liners.

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
