And that, ladies and gentlemen, leads me to my question: How does a lonely old man find friends here?

During college and during my working days as a teacher, it was a lot easier to meet people than it is here. I enjoy going to various clubs, but I can't very well choose a likely looking person in a club meeting and ask for a "play date".

Sports are out of the question. I used to try golf, but I am terrible at it, and also at most games since I've become a slowpoke.

I am not a "single" so single clubs are not on the agenda for me. At any rate, sexual activity if totally out of the question.

So, do any of you know how I can meet new people here? Actually, I am looking for a club for people seeking friends.

Any suggestions?
Take a look at the weekly recreation bulletin. There are many social clubs/activities listed in there. Cards, billiards, music, etc. I bet you'll find something you're interested in. There's a lot more than sports in The Villages.
