Have you recently ended a relationship, and are not quite ready to plunge back into the dating world?  This group is for both men and women in their 40's and 50's  who are not attached, and are interested in building quality  friendships. (This group will not be for you if you are interested in the quick pick-up!)  Come join us as we explore this unique time of learning about who we really are and what we really want out of life.  Let's have some fun and explore what Austin has to offer while we are growing spiritually and emotionally.

 

Kathy and Eileen both recently ended long-term marriages.  We've done a lot of talking about what it means to be single at this time in our lives, and we have come to discover that we don't want to jump into another relationship-even though some of our friends and family members seem very interested in us doing so. Ending a relationship in mid-life comes with some unique opportunities to really grow and make thoughtful choices.  In essence, we are trying to take the time to explore who we are, and what we truly want in the next phase of our lives.  We both feel that there are  other men and women out there, like us, who might want to expand their social lives and develop lasting friendships outside of the dating world.  Come and join us!

    "This is such a great idea for a group! Divorced after 21 years of marriage. I have 5 kids, my oldest is 22 & youngest is 10. I have a business and work from home, which makes it hard to make new friends. I would love to get together when possible."
