Practice talking to strangers! It’s quite awkward at first, but it gets much easier with time. Just strike up a conversation with anyone you meet in the street. Ask questions, you’d be surprised how easy it is to get people to talk about themselves and through that get a conversation going.

Don’t know how much this plays into the long-term aspect, but I figure the easier it is for you to meet people, the easier it will be to meet someone who matches you.

It also gives a small boost of joy, for me at least communicating and smiling with another human being i dont know makes me think the world is better after all :)
