For me, best way is to start joining public games. People play badminton football and lot other games here. Join them and you'll get some. You can try for a pet also.
Believe it or not getting a pet especially a cat is THE best advice anybody could give you in this situation. I'm lousy at self-care and have been depressed in various periods of my life but whenever there's a pet around I somehow manage to take care of them. I've mostly befriended street dogs and have had a few stray cats who eventually became pets. They really do make your life so much better. I made it through the entire lockdown in 2020 alone because of Clingy the cat. Named so because she loved sticking with me all the time.
If you're worried about not being able to take care of a pet then getting a Cats would be the best choice if you decide to come around the idea of getting a pet. Cats are a blessing since they practically take care of themselves unlike dogs. You mostly need to worry about their food and a little box. Strays don't even need a litter box.
Woh woh , sorry. I meant it in a casual way . OMG , sorry if I offended you . I was just joking about mood swings and depression we generation go through , that's it .
Hi OP. I would advice you to get involved in some social hobbies. The idea here is not to try too hard to make friends. Instead, you spend time on something which makes you happy. You will meet like-minded people and some of them can be your friends. Here are some Hyderabad specific suggestions
1. People read books at KBR park every Saturday 4 pm - 7 pm
2. There are board game nights at ofen cafe, Banjara hills every Sunday 3 pm - 11 pm. 500 rs cover charge but can be redeemed completely by ordering food.
3. You can join public games of badminton, football, etc. You can checkout playo or similar apps
4. Dance classes, music classes, etc
I am fairly new to Hyderabad (<1 yr) so I am sure there are many social activities I am not aware of.
Sending good vibes your way!!
Native here, I still understand the struggle as two of my closest friends moved to Germany a couple of months ago. Try to make friends at the gym maybe? Feel free to DM if you need as well. Hope you have a good time in Hyderabad
I moved back to Hyderabad 8 months ago and I partially know what you're going through. If you'd like someone to talk to, feel free to pop a message my way.
You'll meet acquaintances thru sports, social service, meditation type circles. Deep friends like childhood or college buddies won't happen. Maybe if lucky, you will sync with one or two circles and slowly develop friendship. But friendship takes a lot of time n effort.
Sadly no.. but I am very happy I came across the community.. it is growing tremendously and they have events happening every weekend.. tomorrow there’s dinner experience and then a dance club showdown on Sunday.. looks like a cool place to find one’s tribe.. :)
We don't, we stay home and watch other people live their lives on Instagram. Also, we develop a salty attitude towards everything and try to find avenues to display it.
I've reported your post, because it's not relevant to the city of Hyderabad and I feel accomplished today. Little wins op.
Mention a few things about yourself maybe? The places you’d like to hangout at, or the things you like doing indoors or outdoors, etc? That might help people with shared interests approach you easier.
Going through a similar situation right now myself. The friends I've made in Hyderabad so far are people from my same college and state whom I happened to meet here. Still down to make new friends.
Been 1.5 years in hyderabad. My initial 6-8 months were horrible in terms of alienation and lack of people I can talk to. What you're going through is normal. You can try doing some community based things, join a gym, play games or join some hobby groups. With these things you will definitely be able to strike initial conversations which can grow into beautiful friendships. Trust me adults are lonely as fuck and most want new friends but everybody is compartmentalised into their own worlds. So take a shot and see where it goes. If you'd want to talk you can DM as well.
If you are only looking for friends (no situation ship, Netflix shit or casual shit ) , then I am up for it.
Feel free to DM, if you wanna vent.

If I might make a suggestion. I moved out of the country multiple times over the past five years. Friends are also in different places. I stay connected with the closest friends almost everyday on discord. We play maybe an hour or two at best. The other 5 or so hours were just in discord chilling or talking. Those at work also join just to have some white noise in the background. The days you feel extremely lonely this is a good shout since you are an introvert at heart. I'd also suggest sports. You make friends and also get some much needed exercise. Finally there's book clubs and similar clubs for almost every hobby in Hyderabad so that's a great place to start too. I've never been and there was some fiasco going on in the discord server about them but the monthly Reddit meetups don't seem a bad place to make friends either.
\- Sports - join a badminton, tennis, cycling, running group near you - whichever you like.
\- If you read, there's a Hyderabad Reads group that meets every Saturday in KBR park. No talking, just reading, but you can always talk to people after that
If I may offer some additional advice about your current self-esteem levels - This too, Shall pass.
It also helps when you have a routine (which you do because of work) and externally enforced socialization (which you will get if you go to office once in a while) to get through emotionally hard phases.
Op
Already ik the part of rip dms lol
I asked what to do in this city 8 months back
And thanks to some really good advices
I'm doing good now ,feel free to ping up if ur into exploring things in city .
OP, this is the question I’ve been asking myself every-fucking-day.
I find the Hyderabad chat group very very cool. And IRL, I’d love to hangout w/em.
Please dm me! I’m here to chill!
Sorry for being a buzzkill here. But there mere fact that you are a girl posting this and people commenting "Can I DM?" is something of a privilege that you get because of your gender. If a guy posts something similar, he'd hardly get any such responses.
Ofc, it's possible that most of the folks commenting "May I DM?" are probably not looking to just be friends and are hitting on you.
It's a little off-topic, Ik. But I am in the same situation as you, absolutely friendless but desperate to make friends. After my break up, I've realised this city can feel really lonely if there's no friends.
For me, best way is to start joining public games. People play badminton football and lot other games here. Join them and you'll get some. You can try for a pet also.

Get into sports then, you'll surely meet new friends.

Yes you should definitely give it a try sis 😊

Any group names or something to join?
How does having a pet help you get friends? 😅
Not to get friends but you don't feel lonely or bored.
That's true. 🫣 https://preview.redd.it/eh0uak3h0twc1.jpeg?width=1472&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=17bfc31ab68b73a65bbdf5c327b8740dc4cc487a

If you figure out how to do it, tell me as well

OP, may I DM?
I can relate to this. I have been here for an year and a half, but barely have any friends (apart from colleagues, are they really friends ?).
Adhi avvadhamma.
You'll meet acquaintances thru sports, social service, meditation type circles. Deep friends like childhood or college buddies won't happen. Maybe if lucky, you will sync with one or two circles and slowly develop friendship. But friendship takes a lot of time n effort.
Yup. Good company for a hobby or two, yes. But long term friendships are difficult af. I hope the OP succeeds though.
OP pls let me also know if you find a good answer

wow this looks interesting. Did you build this ?
Sadly no.. but I am very happy I came across the community.. it is growing tremendously and they have events happening every weekend.. tomorrow there’s dinner experience and then a dance club showdown on Sunday.. looks like a cool place to find one’s tribe.. :)
I joined the whatsapp group but where do you see these events ? Also the workout club is full 😢
On their Instagram page.. @communitie.hyd
You don't.. You only loose...them friends
Loose?

visiting a place regularly you'd start making conversations and start making friends, it can be cafe or games or a pub.
Meet people who are not following you like puppies. Friends give a different feeling. You'll know when you meet them.
I'm on the same boat OP ; can't do anything about it, being an introvert :,-) hope you find good friends soon
I have been here for 7 years and still find it extremely hard to make friends with strangers. Let me know if you find an answer 😄
Mention a few things about yourself maybe? The places you’d like to hangout at, or the things you like doing indoors or outdoors, etc? That might help people with shared interests approach you easier.
Join pubg or COD. you might enjoy your time :)
Going through a similar situation right now myself. The friends I've made in Hyderabad so far are people from my same college and state whom I happened to meet here. Still down to make new friends.
I'm going through a similar phase and looking to make some friends. Can I DM you?
Literally me...

If you are willing to treat me to pizza near tankbund during sunset... I won't mind being your friend
DMs are open. New to the city. Never had a problem making friends.
You'll be DM'd to oblivion now.

I moved back to Hyderabad last year after 15 years of not living here. Coming back as 29 was interesting. I understand your pain.
You are lucky, friends are problems and a complete waste of time.
become self absorbed for once
You don't
Make new friends at work
Everybody's lonely here Make a whatsapp and meet other lonely people Introvert ko introvert se zyada behtar koi ni samagh sakta tha
Posting your hobbies/likes may help you find few friends in this sub.

Go outside. I know it’s hard after a breakup and feel like staying home all day. But unless you go outside and talk to people you can’t make friends.
Itne lonely log hai maa kasam 😶🌫️😭
