I am 35M. I live in the Netherlands. I have been in one long term relationship in the past and I found her on a dating app. Dating apps dont work for me anymore for some reason.
My entire life has been me staying inside the house unless I have to go to work or for a walk or for the gym. I never go out to other places. I even order my groceries. This was all fine till now but I realized that if I keep going like this I will never meet a partner my entire life.
I dont hit on people at work as that is not encouraged. I dont hit on people at the gym. And I dont run into many women while walking (and if I do I dont even know what to say to someone going for a jog with earuds).
I am an expat here so my dutch is also weak. Thats another factor that makes me hesitate talking to strangers. Along with the fact that I kinda have social anxiety.
I have no friends. I used to have a few in the university and they drifted apart with time and some moved away (since they were expats who came to study here just like me).
People often respond to these questions with "find a hobby". My hobbies are(as you would expect) binge watching series on Netflix or playing single player games on my playstation(offline. I dont like online games). I do like to travel internationally but thats like a few days once a year.
I do have some free time on the weekends but what do I even do and sometimes after work? This doesnt come naturally to me as I said.
How do I find a potential partner?
