View submission: Weekly Free Talk Friday Thread!
I don't have any tips, but responding to say I understand how you feel. I want to get more involved with my community and want to make some new dad friends. I have a decent sized friend group, but I am the only one with kids even though most of us start turning 40 this year. My oldest daughter is 4, and I hope that starting at the public school will give me an opportunity to bond with other dads.
I'm also trying to find ways to get together with my existing friends as well, as most have become homebodies. I've heard people talk about setting a standing open invite on the same date each month so people can come when they choose. I may try that in the next year or so.

I've found that the recurring date with open invite works best. No pressure to show up every time, but it's good to have a "first Saturday of the month" type event
