About us
Welcome to Introverted But Social (Women in Their 20s & 30s) — a gentle space for women who want connection, but find socializing a little hard.
This group is for those of us who:
• Feel overwhelmed by loud, high-energy events
• Crave meaningful friendships but don’t know where to start
• Want to meet like-minded women in a calm, welcoming environment
You don’t have to be super outgoing, talkative, or confident to join — just open to showing up, being kind, and connecting in your own way.
💬 What to expect:
Low-pressure, cozy gatherings like…
• Quiet café catchups
• Nature walks or picnic meetups
• Games, or “silent” social events (yes, reading together counts!)
This is a judgment-free zone where it’s okay to be quiet, nervous, or unsure — many of us are! We’re here to make it easier, together.
Whether you’ve just moved to town, feel stuck in a lonely season, or simply want deeper friendships with people who “get it” — you’re not alone. 💛

Book Club
Dux Dine, 28 Riccarton Road, Riccarton, Christchurch, NZJoin us for a cosy Book Club evening at Dux Dine in Christchurch ✨
Bring along your current read or favourite book and spend the evening connecting with other book lovers in a relaxed, low-pressure setting. There’s no set genre — whether you love romance, thrillers, fantasy, self-development, or literary fiction, everyone is welcome to share what they’ve been enjoying lately.
For our first month’s recommendation, If Something Happens to Me by Alex Finlay is a book we’d suggest if you’re having trouble deciding what to read or you just want a shared book to chat about on the night.
We’ll spend time chatting about our favourite books, swapping recommendations, and getting to know each other over optional food or drinks. Towards the end of the evening, we’ll also have an optional quiet reading time where you can simply unwind and enjoy your book in good company.
Perfect for anyone wanting a calm social evening and a chance to meet fellow readers 📚
