I do the same thing. I have a feeling a lot of engineers are in this same trap. The problem is that prolonged periods of just going home and watching tv after work is going to lead to an increase in social anxiety for many people. Which then leads to even more isolation.
Ideally I envision myself going to the gym, going to a meetup, playing board games, etc, but I just never seem to bring myself around to doing it.
- azinman2 7y agoPut stuff on your calendar. Don’t overload it, but dot your calendar out for a month or two with an event once a week. Buy. Ticket to something so you feel some pressure, and invite some friends. Find ways to motivate yourself and see that as a challenge to overcome.

- azinman2 7y agoUnless you're somewhere extremely rural, there has to be _something_ going on. There are many places these are advertised and aggregated: local newspapers, Facebook events, Ticketmaster, Eventbrite, Meetup, and even Google has a pretty great events product now. What are you struggling with?
