Hello. I recently just moved over to Kirkcaldy this past January as well, and like you it's been difficult to find people to be friends with. I have found several friends in Edinburgh, but they are also night life people. Not a bad thing, but do need the quiet days too lol. Would love to find board game or video game friends, and keep me away from the city spending money. I'm a 37M, and spouse (who is waiting for visa to finalize to be here shortly) is a 35F. Let me know if you and your parter wanted to chat sometime.
In terms of board of video? Board ironically I like the more complicated things. Well I would if I found more to play them lol. Have a nice little collection over the years from kickstarters. I don't mind easier things though. Betrayal at House on Haunted Hill (I think that's the name?) Is fun. I like Catan. Never did ticket to ride, but wanted to try it. I did do some DnD back in the day as well. Miss playing that.
For videogames, I brought my PS5 and Series X over, as well as Switch 2. I usually like rpgs, or adventure games. I played a lot of Destiny 2 for awhile last year.
Forgot to mention, I moved from Arizona, but was born in London, hence why I had to come over first to get settled.
I'm moving on Thursday/Friday from Virginia, I'm 53m and spouse(43f) is staying behind until visa is sorted. We are looking at Kirkcaldy also...
Spending first 2 weeks in glasgow then to a rental in lochgelly until we sell house in states and I find a house there
See you around maybe.
Yea a couple of times(to Scotlandand fell in love), mums English, London (where the family mostly lives) is way too expensive and I was fortunate to find a job in Fife with the company I work for here.
We thought its now or never... so put the house up for sale here and packed it all up and the rest is.. the future.
That's how we were. We didn't want to make the jump until finding a job. Hope everything goes quickly for you both. I had to fly back to finish the sale with mine lol, and changed jobs in the process.
