TALK TO STRANGERS. IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE. PT 3 THE REASON YOU DONT HAVE FRIENDS

Transcript

The brutal reason you don't have many friends is because you're too scared of talking to strangers. So, I'm going to show you all the event platforms I use to put myself out there and to find people who like what I like. So, first up is part of it. I usually go to the Discovery icon on the bottom and then it gives me all of the events that are going on. You can change the city here, you can change the category of whatever you're interested in. And something I like is that I can tell if any of my friends are RSVP. I also just think part of it is super easy to navigate. I use it to host all my parties. Next up is Luma. It looks very similar to part of it. One thing I would know is that people use it a little bit more formally. For example, I used it for all my professional events like Google Metagons, YC events. So these events are great to network at. And the last one is actually my favorite. It's called Rodeo and it takes all the events that are going on in Partiful and Lima and presents them all together. My friend showed it to me a few weeks ago and I think it's just really fun to use. Disclaimer, this is not an advertisement. I genuinely just love using these platforms.
