Hey Everybody,

I'm in my early twenties and just moved to Dublin from Boston, Massachusetts. My boyfriend is Irish so I moved over here to be with him, but I'm finding myself hanging out with his friends over and over again instead of making my own.

I work full time in Dublin and am looking for some good girl friends to have a laugh with/go out drinking/dancing/exploring/hang out with after work and on the weekends. Dying to make some good friends of my own here. Forgot what it's like to be in a new city and not know anyone.

Anyways, I'm very easy going and would love to chat more if ya like!

Cheers!
Des

Hi! I'm in a very similar situation, though in Galway rather than Dublin. I don't make it to Dublin too often, but if you're ever in Galway, give me a shout and the first round is on me! One thing I've been considering doing in order to reach out and make my own friends (though I do love our housemates and my boyfriends friends) is going on *** and seeing the different societies and groups for people with all different interests, and I'd highly recommend it. I'm sure Dublin has tons of groups that would love having you!

Best of luck

Hi I am new to Dublin as well and have been spending time with family but looking to make some friends outside of my family and meet other girls around the same age as myself! Happy to meet for coffee or a pint at some point

https://www.expat.com IS NOT A DATING SITE

Just a gentle reminder to @lazaruselue and everyone else that trying to use it as such will place your membership here in jeopardy.

Hi, I'm from Canada and have been here about a year, mostly in rural Ireland. I miss my girl friends and for the first time in my life I'm not making any here...rural Ireland, all the woman are at home with the babies it seems. I'm just making this post to say hi and hopefully touch base with someone who wants to go for a pint or whatever. I'm pretty easy going, I like music (who doesn't) and I miss dinner parties and art/craft nights with my friends.
