There are times when you feel alone and want to find something fun to do, such as when you've just moved to a new city, have a fight with your group of friends, or when everyone else is busy. While traveling alone can make you a little nervous, don't let that stop you from enjoying yourself; You can still do a lot of fun things. Read these tips on how to have fun without friends.
Step
Method 1 of 4: Try a New Hobby
Step 1. Play a computer or video game
Look for free games online if you don't want to spend money. Also, try playing online multiplayer games so you can have friends while playing the game. There are different types of games, there are also tons of challenging puzzle games and a fun storyline that can keep you playing for hours.
Remember not to share too much information about yourself or others with anyone you meet online
Step 2. Experiment in the kitchen and learn to cook
Cooking can be a lot of fun, especially while playing a favorite playlist and sprinkling with fresh and delicious ingredients. Search the internet or watch a cooking show to find recipes to inspire you, then make a shopping list and get to work. There's no requirement that the food has to be amazing because you're not preparing a dinner party or serving it to a jury of celebrity cooks. The best thing about this is that you will eat the produce after you finish cooking it!
You are required to use a knife and a grill or stove when grilling or cooking. Make sure your parents allow the use of such utensils, or ask them to help you prepare meals
Step 3. Do something artistic
Painting, photography, writing poetry, making pottery, making scrapbooks -- anything that lets your creativity flow. You don't have to worry about other people's criticism of your skills, so you can have complete freedom of expression.
Submit your artwork in a contest. You can earn money, meet other artists and surprise your peers with the skills you have
Step 4. Watch a movie alone
While people often watch movies in groups, it's not really a social activity -- there's no reason to talk or interact with anyone while you're looking at the screen. You will instantly forget that you are alone and will probably enjoy yourself as much as you would when you were watching with a group.
Try cinemarathoning --buy a ticket for a daytime show then sneak into the second and third shows. Make sure you don't get caught
Method 2 of 4: Developing the Mind
Step 1. Take a class that interests you
You can take classes online or register with your local community campus, or visit MIT's OpenCourseWare to download free courses. You may find that a subject can be so much fun that you will want to pursue it as a career.
- Take an encoding class and learn how to create your own smartphone app. You can design excellent games!
- If you don't want to take the whole class, find a newsletter about your favorite subject and watch for other lessons that can be learned.
Step 2. Start blogging about a subject you are interested in
Are you a movie lover? Start blogging to share your thoughts on your favorite movies, write reviews and communicate with other movie lovers online. If you love photography, start posting your best work on a blog. Writing on a blog is a great way to share your interests as well as a way to meet people who share your interests.
- If you're a fashion lover, share information about your outfit today, about what's trending at the show and about your favorite brands.
- Talk about your favorite sports teams and their performances in the current season, do a buy and sell analysis and draft picks, or incite with a post about why your team is the best.
Step 3. Visit the museum
Visiting the museum alone means you can spend as much time as you want on each collection. If you want to spend 20 minutes on a painting, you don't have to worry about other people rushing you. You can tour the museum as fast or as slowly as you want.
- Try to visit the museum on holidays.
- Have a membership so you can visit the entire museum multiple times. In addition, you can get special benefits as a member and can be invited to lectures or previews of a new collection.
Step 4. Take an unread book from your bookshelf or reread your favorite book
Don't underestimate the fun you can get from reading a good book. You can learn something new from non-fiction books, or be transported to another world with some amazing fiction books.
Visit the library for free books and find out if they have a readers' club or book group. It's also a good place to find out about lectures and activities
Method 3 of 4: Taking Care of the Body
Step 1. Try parkour
Parkour is a fun way to make the world your series of obstacles--try to find the fastest route from Point A to Point B. You have to jump, climb, and roll. This activity will improve balance and teach you to make decisions quickly. Start slowly so you don't get hurt and learn some basic moves before starting.
Start in your backyard or in a grassy environment where you can practice
Step 2. Take the hike
Traveling outside can strengthen your immune system, build an active lifestyle and encourage a positive and proactive attitude. Spending time in nature can put you at peace and compare things just right. Long walks along scenic mountain lines will remind you of the beauty of the world and help you realize that it's okay to be alone.
Make sure you let someone know where you're going and when you'll be back. With it, your parents will know where to go if you get hurt on a hike
Step 3. Try a fitness class that can be embarrassing
dance class, zumba, step class; This kind of exercise can be a lot of fun, but it can also be a bit overwhelming when you're trying to work out your steps and follow the instructor's moves. If you're surrounded by strangers who are trying the same thing, you won't feel too nervous and can just focus on having fun and dancing your way.
- Yoga is another good and silent practice. You can really focus on the movement. Besides, if you take this class, almost everyone is alone too.
- If you don't feel like going to the gym, look for videos of kickboxing, zumba, or other fun exercises you can do in your living room.
Step 4. Pamper yourself with a spa
Use a face mask, paint your fingernails and toenails, and drink cold cucumber water. Try out a new makeup tutorial and find out how to create the perfect cat eye. Let you enjoy yourself and relax and feel like a queen for a while.
Ask your mother if she wants to go shopping with you; maybe he will treat you to a massage or a mani-pedi
Method 4 of 4: Go
Step 1. Let go of your nervousness
Most people are afraid to go out and do certain things alone because they think that others will criticize them, or they think that they will not be able to have the same fun as being with a group. But in truth, neither of these two things is true. We tend to overvalue other people's concern for what we do (few people will care or think about why you are alone), and we underestimate how much we enjoy doing an activity alone.
- Don't let yourself be deterred from going outside and experiencing things just by being alone. You'll probably feel happier when you're out and about doing something than just sitting at home.
- If you're worried about what people will think if they see you traveling alone, remember that it takes persistence to do what you want to do. If people see that you can enjoy yourself with confidence, instead of hiding that you're feeling lonely, you'll appear more confident than anything else.
- If you're traveling from school and are worried about what they're thinking, don't hide or be shy. Act like it's no big deal -- yes, you're watching a movie in a theater alone. They may not be brave enough to do what you are doing. Therefore, think positively about your solo adventure.
Step 2. Volunteer and meet people to spend time with useful activities
Get involved in the things you are passionate about and use your skills to produce something useful. If you have a skilled hand, join Habitat for Humanity. If you have an interest in animals, spend some time at a local sanctuary, walking the dogs and playing with the kittens. If you're an environmentalist, look for opportunities to get involved in a forest or beach clean-up day. You will have fun, save the world and meet cool people at the same time..
- Other possibilities you can do include volunteering at soup kitchens, visiting children or seniors in hospitals, spending time with children in Boys and Girl's groups, and teaching.
- Contact a house of worship or political organization in your area to find out if they have an opportunity for you to volunteer or not.
Step 3. Sign up for associations with like-minded people
You will find that you have something in common with the people there. Search online for free associations in your area such as science fiction lovers, hiking groups, photographers, foodies, and join one of their activities. You will be doing activities that you enjoy and may make some friends during the process.
- If you are a student, take a look at what associations your school has.
- There are even groups of people who just feel like they're not doing things their own way -like watching a movie at a park or visiting a theme park - and you can join a large group.
Step 4. Take a trip and explore new places
Make a list of your favorite songs, pick a city, park or nearby attraction that looks weird or fun (the world's biggest hamster wheel, maybe?), and start the journey. You can sing as loud as you want, stopping wherever you like; You don't have to worry about other people. This trip you can have completely.
- For some, a long journey is a good way to clear your head and relieve stress. This can give you time to think, recharge yourself and get you out of the house at the same time.
- If you can't drive or aren't old enough to take an out-of-town trip alone, find out if your mom, dad, older sibling or cousin would like to join you on a trip.
Warning
- Following people when you have no friends is not the way to go.
- Don't watch too much TV or overuse social websites.
- Try to socialize with close family members who are your age so you have related things to talk about. For example, don't contact an aunt who lives in a different area that you've only met once. Contact a cousin who is close to you.
