For context, I don’t think I have made a male friend since early high school. Then I got depressed and lost all my friends. There is a guy on my intermediate volleyball team I talk to frequently. How do I become friends with him? Like obviously I’d ask him to hang out, but what would we do? This is an issue I’m working through with my therapist, but I have no idea how to ask someone to just hangout. All of the friends I have made in the past 10 years (majority women) became my friend because we were in environments where we see each other all the time, and we became closer before we hung out. But I don’t know this guy that well. What do I do? Please help submitted by /u/PurplePumkins

Making friends is tough, but if there is something you want to do, invite him along, seeing a game at a bar, or a concert or just helping do something or just having a bbq.
Me I find I spend time doing hobbies, so going for a run or meeting at a race. I remove the pressure by making the event external.
