Online table top RPGs. All of my (mostly male) gaming buddies are feminists, and they help me be less lonely. You can play for free with very little effort.
Except time is not “free”. When someone says they can’t afford hanging out they usually mean they don’t have time, not that they don’t have petty cash to spend on a weekend.
The person I responded to said nothing about why they couldn’t afford to meet. So I interpreted it as the common usage of it to mean financially. If someone can’t afford a few hours a week when they are lonely to get online and play a game, well, that sucks, and I can’t help them from this side of my screen. So I offered an idea as the only help I can give.
I’ve thought about doing this, but I have no idea where to even start to find a group playing the games I wanna play.
Roll20 has a way to find others online. I’ve been extremely lucky and meet someone in college that loves to DM. Several of the people in the group I’m in found each other through that before I joined.
Look for local game shops and see what they have available; start connecting with the folks there even if it’s not necessarily the games you want to play because the more you build those connections, the more likely you are to end up with a group that does.
If you live somewhere that doesn’t have local game shops, there are online groups. I’ve been out of it long enough to not know what to suggest here specifically though.
