well, this is a good place to make initial introductions. Or hopefully it will be. A lot of people don't like the local bars for that kind of thing but there is the Dome, and any other place like that. I don't know about too many social clubs or anything like that. Universities or such wouldn't be that bad, providing you are a student, otherwise hanging out at a university just to meet people might be a little creepy  . That's really all I can come up with. Aside from that and hanging around with people that you know (if you know anyone here) and gettign to know their friends. Well, there, now I'm done. Of course, I'm a 28 yr old single male so don't take my word on anything Best of luck, though! |

i could use the same advise youre looking for --- ive lived in hfx since aug, and outside of work (mcdonalds--woo-hoo) and like 2 people (both F like me) i havent really got anyone to talk to except my sitter, and even though shes an awesome person and we get along great, id like to leave her home with the kids once in a while to go out rather than just to go to school or work. how does anyone meet people, no offense, but there must be a better way than this.

When I was younger, more adventurous, and not tied down by family.... the bar scene was a great way of bumping into people and making a few acquaintances when exploring a new town. If you don't like the noise and confusion that bars are.. I find just lounging around along the harbourfront can lead to a good occasional encounter.. if you're adventurous enough to say 'Hi' to a perfect stranger that is... which never stopped me before.  I spend most of my off-time with my kids, lack of funds, addiction to the Internet often lead me to be an indoors person... hopefully that'll change if I can get a new bike this spring.  |

My husband and I are planning on moving to the Halifax area this summer. I am a seasoned mover with over 30 moves under my belt. As my parents would move for work all the time so I became an expert with meeting new people and I now have friends spanning the globe. I find the best places are at a local church but there are other ways. When you are in line at the grocerie store or at the check out at a store ask the person in front of you or serving you questions about the area and if they know any places. I found 3 good friends this way. You could also get involved in a sport as there are plenty of drop in sports in the bigger cities and it gives you an opportunity to meet a large group all at once (my friend met her new husband this way). If you have young kids, you could get them involved in a play group and meet other parents that way. For older kids (who tend to make friends with more ease) invite both the new friend and the parent(s) over for dinner or lunch to get to know them. If they are school aged get involved at the school and you can meet other parents there. If you pick your kids up from school talk to the other parents waiting to do so as well. I hope this helps!

BEWARE OF RACIST WHITE CANADIAN COPS: THE RACIST WHITE CANADIAN COPS TRESPASS INTO NON-WHITES PRIVATE PROPERTIES THROUGH USING WALL-SEE-THROUGH TECHNOLOGIES FROM NEIGHBORHOODS AND PASSING CARS AND WEBCAMS TO TRESPASS INTO NON-WHITES PRIVATE PROPERTY FROM OUTSIDE THROUGH SURREPTIOUS MEANS. THEY PROVOCATE NON-WHITES THROUGH NEIGHBORS AND THEN USE THEIR EVIL SYNDICATES TO CALL COPS ON NON-WHITES. THE COPS WAIL SIRENS AND CREATE DISTURBANCES OVER BODY MOVEMENTS OF NON-WHITES IN THEIR PRIVATE HOMES. HOWEVER, THE CANADIAN RACIST COPS ARE ADEPT AT BEING LIARS AND PRETEND THESE THINGS ARE NOT HAPPENING DUE TO LACK OF PHYSICALLY VISIBLE EVIDENCE. HOWEVER, GOD ABOVE WATCHES ALL - MORE SPECIFICALLY THESE WHITE RACIST COPS FOR THEIR ABUSE OF POWER AGAINST NON-WHITES THROUGH TRESPASSING INTO THEIR PRIVATE HOMES AND LIVES FROM OUTSIDE THROUGH WALL-SEE-THROUGH AND TEMPEST TECHNOLOGIES.
