How to make new friends when you are a "minority" in society

I would be doing 2.

And I would be inviting them over for coffee. As a group KWIM?

Rouge - this is a good idea, i guess i havent gotten past me saying , hi how are you and getting smiled at... i am not even sure they know what i am saying cause no one has spoken back yet? i woul dhave to look into cultural side of things too with food , milk etc, hate to offend anyone

I am going to try the library tomorrow with DS see how that goes.

DH finds it much easier being of ethnic background, he is approached more readily by strangers, but i just feel like i stand out like a sore thumb

What culture are you talking about? You never know someone here may be able to help.

I am not sure of the exact backgrounds, but mostly Indian/SriLankin or Lebanese (tbh i dont find it as hard with those with lebanese background because of DH though).
