Is is possible to meet someone in my situation?
I’m a guy in my mid 20s and I’ve been working and living in Istanbul for over a year now.
So far, I’ve been too busy with work, training, and other responsibilities to really have much of a social life. I’ve had a few relationships, but they didn’t last because of lifestyle differences.
I don’t drink or smoke at all, and I really don’t enjoy loud clubs. Because of that, my options for meeting people feel much more limited. Also, most of my friends around me are married and busy with their own lives, so I usually end up going out alone.
After work and gym, I’m honestly getting a bit bored of just playing computer games. At the same time, I don’t really want to use dating apps. I think I have a pretty strong psychological resistance to them.
So I’m curious about your opinions. where should I go, or what kind of activities should I try, if I want to naturally meet good people in Istanbul?
