Read your comments and saw this wasn't the first on this theme.

Depending on your status, do you have anything against asking guys/gals to grab lunch?

Sounds weird but honestly, I ask out plenty of girls all the time not to date them but to see if they'd be an interesting friend.

EDIT: I see you're also 21 like myself. Ever tried going to meet ups? Maybe not tech-oriented meetups but hiking, kayaking, boating, etc.
