Unfortunately, I'm a rather charismatic person. That means that I've been surrounded by jerks, idiots, and disgusting peple my entire life, wanted it or not. I've been able to met a few decent, easy to talk people whom I can relate with no problems, and they ar valuable friends in my life. But for every nice person I met, there were another hundred horrible people i had to met as well.
Lately I've been kind of isolated, since I moved to a new city. I think perhaps I should meet new people. But, honestly, I don't want to ever be near one of those horrible people again.
Is there a way to be able to meet nice people without running into much jerks?
Talk about things that matter and you will meet people who matter.
Start with posting on advice forums/boards/chats (more active than 4-ch). Because you live in a city, you're likely to find some hobby communities using Google. Gaming clubs are the best, at least for me, because I was able to find more people like myself. (A normal guy who's knowledgeable about random things, arcade games and has nostalgia for retarded Internet memes in the early 00s) With anything, take it easy and you'll get connections and eventually stuff to do outside of the meetups. Just don't get too personal unless they're personal to you, and agree to disagree at times - not everyone likes to hear rambling from somebody about how their problems are ruining their life.
'Like' people usually herd together. Punks with punks, geeks with geeks, that sort of thing. If you want to meet nice people, then be nice.
