What we’re about
Are you trying to make friends but finding it just a *tad* bit more difficult than your elementary or college days? You're not alone. IT IS HARDER! Now people have responsibilities, partners, children, and (usually wrong) opinions. The worst part is that once you actually find a potential friend, you find out they live in Rosenberg and you live in Conroe!
There's a million reasons why you might want to reclaim your social life as an adult. Maybe you're going through a divorce and realizing all your friends are your partner's friends. Maybe you just moved to town for a new job . Maybe you out grew that friend group you made in high school. Maybe you just need new friends. Whatever the reason - I'm confident my group will provide you with the social life you've been craving.
Why you should join my group out of the literal thousands of other Meetups:
1. Let's be real - you're reading this description right now because what you've been doing hasn't been working. Take a chance & join the fastest growing social club in Houston! There's a reason we have almost 6,000+ Houstonians in our group.
- Our events are pretty bad a$$. I like to mock the awkwardness that is meeting random strangers off the internet. I often do themed events to get everyone excited & provide natural ice breakers. I put creative spins on mundane happy hours.
3. I can vouch for HUNDREDS of our members when I say they're all awesome people! I'm personally friends with so many of y'all and I know for a fact these are people that make you ever question why your social life was in a slump to begin with.
- I'm an authentic host. I started hosting because I found myself in the same position as so many of you. My best friend died and I was going through a break up. I realized I had no social life of my own. So I made a group and took control of my life. I host because I know what it's like to be lonely/isolated. I also don't *&$! around. I will remove someone from this group faster than how fast people drive on I-45. If you want someone who gets it and doesn't put up with creeps, etc - I'm your host with the most!
Feeling inspired yet?! Just join the d*mn group! We also have a podcast and our own premium membership that you can join for $20 a year. Our premium membership gets you into our group chats, premium events, & the ability to connect with other Houstonians + join/create your own groups on our members portal through our website! Go premium here for $20 a year!

- Mingle Bells! Holiday Mixer 🎄🥂✨Needs location
You watch one too many Hallmark Christmas movies & suddenly want everyone you know to have their dream holiday "Meet Cute" where they find the love of their life after realizing the true meaning of the season (Drinking peppermint lattes under a heating blanket!)
Even I - the social club host who strongly looks down on dating in the group - can be persuaded this time of year to host a fancy little shindig where we all dress to the nines, mingle, make new friends (&, yes, all you single people possibly find the LOYL!).
Let's dress for the holidays, mingle, & enjoy a nice evening! Event taking place in the Post Oak area. This is a premium members only event given that I don't allow just any one from a random app to dare take advantage of my single members 💅🏻 Go premium for $20 for an entire year here!
Not premium?! Be a cool kid (adult) and join the party! A premium membership is $20 for the year and gets you into premium events, our group chats, and the ability to connect with other members beyond the Meetup app. Go Premium For $20!
