Definitely echo the finding shared interest groups. Lucky for you cooking, woodworking, and computer groups tend to be super prevalent in most places. The one bit of added advice I’d offer that has served me very well is that you don’t need to limit yourself to friends your age. Some of the best friends I’ve ever made were in their late 40s/early 50s when I met them in my early 20s. Not limiting yourself by age of folks opens up some amazing friendship opportunities and it’s awesome to get into conversations with folks that had vastly different experiences than you due to the age difference and you can provide them with some interesting context as well. Good luck out there!

Bray, Finn, and Becky are the three wrestlers that brought me back to wrestling after being out since the early 00s. Bray specifically felt like the guy that “got it” based on what I liked about wrestling growing up (plus we are the same age). He got the story telling, he wanted to be a supernatural entity, he loved the showmanship of the business and respected it. I am so sad that we will never get Bray, Windham, the top guy. But in my book he is, was, and always will be a top guy.
