I've been single for a few months now, and I'm starting to feel lonely. I don't want to date, but I want a friend.

I've been single since my girlfriend left me in June, and I'm getting lonely. I don't think I'm ready to start dating again, but it's nice to have someone to talk to. I've been looking into speed dating, but it's not my thing. I'm just not sure how to find a friend who's not a potential future girlfriend.
