I moved here because I was single. Back home most of my friends were married and my social options were limited. I tried joining meet-up groups with limited results. Here, I can be as busy as I want. If I want to go to a movie I can go with Sumter Singles movie and dinner night. They have hiking activities, golf, parties, etc. so you don't have to feel odd attending alone. There are clubs for everything you can think of. I was really worried about becoming more reclusive in my old age....I saw my mother isolate herself and did not want to be that way. There are also lots of volunteer opportunities if you are so inclined. There's really too many things...I haven't even scratched the surface after being here a year.
