Hi! Sorry if this is kind of a weird question but how does one go about making skating friends?
I’d love to have a friend or two who I can skate and practice with, but my current friends either have 0 interest in skating or the ones that do live halfway across the country. I’m homeschooled so meeting skaters through school isn’t an option.
I guess I could go up to skaters at the rink but most of the regulars are either little kids or already have giant friend groups and it just feels kinda awkward approaching them. Also what would I say? I’ve had small talk with some skaters, like “I like your spins” but once that’s said and done they get right back to practicing (understandably) so it’s kinda hard to get to know people.
Any advice is appreciated! Thanks!!
