Need to Meet New People in Portland/Vancouver Area

Question

Hello,
My name is Sami.I moved here from Wisconsin August of 2024. I'm still pretty new here. I haven't made a lot of friends quite yet.  I'm 33-years-old and go by she/her. Childless. Gemini. I am looking to meet new people (male or female). I'm newly single so, I'm not looking to date. I live in Downtown Vancouver, about 5 minutes from Portland. I am heavily involved in self-care, self-help, recovery and AA groups. They keep me stable. However, I am on occasion 420 friendly. I do suffer from Borderline Personality Disorder, Bi-Polar Type I, ADHD, cPTSD, and OCD. It's well managed with medication, therapy and groups. Plus, I'm a Mental Health Therapist myself, which has taught me how to handle life a little better and I've been in therapy since the age of 8. I have an Associate's Degree in Human Services, a Bachelor's Degree in Human Services, and a Master's Degree in Social Work.

I like to go to live music events and be near water (pools, ocean, or lakes). I like to make music, mostly EDM genre. I journal nearly every single day. I like to watch Stand-Up Comedy. I watch the news repeatedly, and am very invested in politics (yes, I'm Liberal, mostly; but that shouldn't matter). I like to cook for people and am pretty good at it I'd say. I enjoy taking photographs and editing them. I'm a night owl. I have a 1-year-old cat named Puppy Kitty (it's a long story). I like to have intellectual conversations about philosophy, science, and conspiracy theories. I like to play board games. I have about 10 decks of tarot cards and oracle decks, and practice reading ancient runes. I have a car and I live alone in a studio apartment. That's about all I can think of!

So what do you say; attend a self-care group with me (I know of one nearly every single day (mostly virtual and free) and we can chat afterwards, go to a music or comedy event, or lets just grab a cup of coffee and chat! #portland #vancouver #washington #oregon #newfriends #coffee #comedy #tarot #music
