Get a hobby you don't do alone on your PC. One where you go out and meet people to do it, preferably one that isn't only done by men (unless you are looking to date men).

For instance they could learn macramé or some crafting ting, go to yoga classes or dancing lessons, or what about baking or cooking lessons.

I can cook, and I'm so bad at dance I just make everyone else cringe at me.

Being bad at dancing could be an advantage you use their laughter and sympathy to break the ice. Anyway scout the local area and sign up for some silly stuff and see where that takes you.

Issue is, I live in a mostly died out community, and the only social hobby accessible to me is social alcoholism. Hungarian suburbs in areas with very high unemployment rival the American ones in badness, and we don't even have awful zoning laws.

EDIT: Can I use the Fediverse for dating?
