what about finding them? you can start a meetup on a local library or cafe. print flyers, hang them around. commit to show up even if no one shows up, it's just the first one. drink your coffee, go home, try again in a couple of weeks.
I walk my town with my 3DS on in the hope that our there, some freak is doing the same and we find each other in street pass.
maybe there's someone out there trying to find you, but with a little less initiative. you already show some, by posting this.
good luck! don't lose a kidney.
