Columbus 40+ Singles & Social

Welcome to Columbus 40+ Singles & Social — Meet, Connect, Explore

If you’re a grownup who still believes in meaningful connection, you’re in the right place.

This group is for Columbus-area singles 40 and older who want to meet new people in a warm, low-pressure, actually enjoyable way. Whether you’re newly single, dating again after many years, or simply craving new friendships and real conversations, you’re welcome here.

We host small gatherings, walks, mixers, and one-time seasonal events that bring people together without the awkwardness or pressure you might associate with “dating events.”
Think: good humans, gentle vibes, and conversation that feels natural.

Our events are hosted by local matchmaker and connection-builder Rachel Joy Barehl, who believes community is one of the most powerful ways to meet aligned people. There are no guarantees of a match here — just opportunities for connection, curiosity, and good company.

What to Expect in This Group

• Low-pressure meetups and social gatherings
• Events designed for real conversation, not speed-dating vibes
• A blend of social, relational, and seasonal activities
• A community of adults who show up with kindness, curiosity, and respect
• A space where you don’t have to perform — just be yourself

Who This Group Is For

• Singles 40+ of all genders and orientations
• People who want connection — friendships, community, or the possibility of something more
• Grownups who value emotional maturity, warmth, and presence
• Anyone who’s tired of dating apps and wants to meet people in real life

Our Values

We prioritize:
Respect. Curiosity. Openness. Kindness. Presence.
We don’t do drama or pressure.
