I’m a 24 year old male, recently divorced with 50/50 custody of my 3 year old daughter. I’ve been married since I was 19, I don’t know how to meet people anymore since it was so easy in high school and college. I work full time and the weeks I have my daughter I’m busy doing things with her. I’ve joined a softball league, tried to ride with bike clubs, and go to the bars on my weeks without my daughter but I just can’t seem to make connections.
What could I possibly be doing wrong? How do I find more clubs? How do I know what other interests I might have? Some nights when I really want to get out and meet people I just have no idea what to do.

That’s a lot of responsibility at a young age, but I’m sure you’re down for it! Daughters need their dad, so keep that a priority. Beyond that, the softball league sounds perfect for making connections. You need to strike up regular conversations with teammates, invite them to do things after the game etc. And what about the bike club? What happens when you have conversations there? I’m not sure that more clubs are the answer if you aren’t currently connecting.
Approach everything with PIE: Positivity, Interest in others and Enthusiasm. Good luck!
