Hi, I wanted to start a movie matinee and dinner group in the Western Burbs open to people 45 and over. I enjoy going to the movies in the afternoon before it gets "crazy busy" and then on to a nice dinner and great conversation. There are so many good places to go and I'd love to have some of you join me. There are other things we can do too, depending on the group. I am divorced and a new "empty nester" but this group is not limited to singles. We may do some "singles only" activities later bu …

I designed this group for women who are interested in expanding their social circle and who are interested in not only having fun, but also genuine friendship. To join this group, please be 21-to-35ish and single with no kids. I'm sorry for these restrictions, but I feel that it's a little easier to make new friends that you click with if you're in similar stages of your life. Most …

Sometimes being a geek girl is a lonely experience. It's hard connect with other women when they're staring at you funny because you're trying to explain your theory that the nature of a child's mutation stems partially from genetics as seen in Polaris and Magneto, but mostly from some sort of trauma before puberty - the time in which most mutants first exhibit abilities. Ex: Nightcrawler wanted to disappear because of his demonic appearance, and he did. You flashed 'em a little bit of your geek …

This is not your typical meetup group. This group is about making real, lasting friendships. I've found that with other groups, you rarely make new friends. You just hang out with strangers at that event, and that's it. Well, let's change that with this group! :) When you join this group, you are acknowledging that you are interested in making real friends, and that it's okay for other members to contact you via e-mail if they think you might have stuff in common, and visa versa. The demographic …

This group is for young (20's and 30's) single women who are looking to build new friendships in the Chicagoland area. I have another group in the western burbs, but no one seems to be very active in it, and no one ever suggests any meetups. I've been trying to think of a way to make sure people are active in this group, so I've made us a facebook group page where we can all talk and decide on meetups for our group. I thought people might be more likely to chat with other members on facebook, th …
