The bad fillers are what people
try when the hole is in their soul.
If thats the case ,
the good fillers wont work either.

Its a god shaped hole.
rubbish.
some people might turn to religion.
some could turn to hobbies, many others to drink and drugs.
if society tells you that you need to be with others to be complete then you will always have a problem, but it isn't always true, there are some individuals-like myself- who don't need others to be complete, we are perfectly happy on our own, we are complete in our own company, we are sometimes referred to as loners but even that isn't true, we are not alone, we are 3: me, myself and I.
www.meetup.com is a good website to consider. You can meet people based on something you're interested in or think you're interested in. Just going up to people in some group, it can be hard to relate. But this can help you overcome that initial barrier to meet people. If you have to travel far, then maybe it's worth saving up to drive those extra miles at least once in awhile. You can try to plan to attend multiple groups in a day if the one you find is not that long for the length it takes you to drive there and back.
Do something you like. You will meet like minded people. You'll have something to talk about if you meet someone, someplace else.
Avoid crowds if you don't like them, thats what I do.
It's hard to meet like minded people if you both never get out of your comfort zone.
I drove across the country by myself in my 30's since every-time I planned a trip with someone they bailed last minute. I'm glad I did go alone and could stop where ever I wanted. I had something to talk about when I met people and was asked to go on road trips since I had the experience.
Pick a place, any place and go there for the day or weekend. Small steps can lead to great gains.

Precisely what my psychologist and I discussed....you must find the positive fillers....one of mine is reading, even if it's very frequent, it's still a positive activity.
I just have no idea what kind of group would want me as a member.
The following are open to everyone:
Church/synagogue
School alumni groups (from wherever you went to school)
Community-based volunteer groups (Meals on Wheels, etc.)
