With questions like that? No.

Just look around you for interesting things happening, go hang out, and over time find out where you fit in!

Stop being so needy, that’s not really appealing. Have you even asked your LLM yet? What is a mob of humans going to do for you that you haven’t tried doing for yourself?

Besides, you don’t really want someone “like you”, you want someone(s) more interesting than you with the patience and tolerance to include you.

Just do things on your own (get started on your own interests), while keeping an eye out for the obvious things (ask your LLM), and over time get to know what’s happening and what others are up to.

Helping others who cannot help themselves is tedious, not endearing.
