I think I would like to hang out with my friends more, but the trouble is I don't know what to do with them. Talking is good, but if you're seeing someone often, it doesn't tend to take long to run out of things to talk about.

When we used to hang out more often, we'd smoke weed together and sometimes drink on the weekends, but I no longer smoke weed and I barely drink for weight loss reasons. One particular friend and I used to play music together, but we've both grown less interested in doing that now, and he is now more interested in rapping, which I have no interest in.

I have a couple of ideas of things to do for one or two friends, but I wish there was more to do.

I, too, am curious about this. I stink at conversation, never mind finding things to do. Will closely monitor this thread. If you find an answer that works for you, don't hesitate to tell us.

Karaoke works wonders for me, mixed gender group by the way, but singing's not for everyone. Shopping and window shopping is nice too, has also worked with guys if we pick a book- or a game store. Playing video-, card- or board games is also an option if both of you are in to it. Some one on one sport, like tennis or badminton, works as well.

All my friends are online so ... I guess voice chat checks out for all that is worth (;

An exquisite corpse! Where everyone writes one line of a story, folds over the paper so everyone can only see the line of the person write before them, and passes it in a circle a couple times. The doodle game, I make a scribble and you turn it into a scribble *of* something, and vice versa! Cooking!

I don't have any, so I never run into this problem. :|
