The more you put yourself out there, the better your odds will be. When I was in my 20s, I had to make my own luck - I joined a couple of groups, went to parties of coworkers, went to networking events, went speed dating, and went to bars on my own. I definitely made some mistakes and sometimes embarrassed myself, but I don't regret anything that I did - it was all a part of developing confidence and social skills.
If you want some inspiration, take a look around Meetup.com. There are hundreds of groups out there, right in Vancouver, that cater to every type of interest. If something looks remotely interesting, get involved and see what it's all about. Be open-minded.
