The whole point of reversing loneliness is to not go bowling alone. Make a couple friends and go with them. You’ll find you’ve been missing something substantial.

This is missing the point of what I said. It was contextual:

I don’t see much of any room for socialization (where I live, sparse plus I have issues stacked up). It’d even be a hassle to go bowling alone and it’d not be worth the price

I'm not saying it'd be a fix (though in the long-run would likely be better than nothing) but that I don't see any organic options for me. Especially now that it's too damn hot to get there via the trail.

I don't like the idea of needing a corporation to handle it either (heard people complain about meetup), though I just don't even want to deal with more accounts either.
