    I live in Seattle and honestly have never experienced any freeze at all. Maybe it’s because I’m queer or maybe it’s because I have good social skills, but I have had no issue integrating myself with the community here and have made lots of friends. Seattle responds well to those who put themselves out there and aren’t republican weirdos.

      In my experience, you can only make friends through work or through shared activities like skiing or the knitting club. Otherwise people aren’t interested in you. If you’re super active, then you’ll have tons of friends. If you’re an introvert, you’re probably better off somewhere else.
