Good
I don't meet new people very often. I usually meet new people when I take a class or go somewhere new. I enjoy talking to new people.
I don't often meet people because I usually having same routine. Also, I'm a little shy and I feel confort in the routine, going to the job, then going to my house or the university and spending time with my boyfriend and my same friends.
Thought, I think meet people is important because help to have different perspectives of the life, I could meet people more frecuently.
I’m so happy
I and my wife costume meet us with ours friends always that possible, practilly one or two same per month.
I meet new people in my leisure time, for example when I go to the gym or to the theater or on the occasion of travel.
I meet new people often because I go to church every week, and there are always new people coming in. We have the pleasure of welcoming them.
As i am a teacher in an internationl school, i meet a new people every time.
I rarely meet new people because I prefer staying at home, reading or learning something new, rather than going out.
I usually meet new people in my free time, mainly in the dance classes where i go twice a week during the year.
