My wife and I moved up to Norwalk 12 years ago and now live in Stratford. As a married couple with no kids and no dogs it has been extremely difficult to meet people. The only place I've had great success is at group Fitness (F45 specifically). The people might be cold initially to the new person, but if you stick with it eventually you will make new friends. I have social anxiety and I was/am still able to make new friends once I got comfortable with my surroundings. Don't rush it.
