For ALL - Make new friends: Chat, Aperol and Beer (also non-alcoholic)

Are you looking for (new) friends in Berlin? This is your place to be.

We meet in the relaxed beer garden Republik Berlin in Berlin Mitte. We chat, get to know each other and make plans to meet up again - if you want to.

By the way - it is Berlin Baby: Bring Cash. Beergarten doesn't accept Credit Card or so...

Prepared Questions: Get to know easily
At the meetup, we have prepared questions cards to encourage conversations that go deeper and beyond small talk.

As one participant said: "It's exciting how quickly you can have good conversations. After an hour, I had the feeling that we had known each other for a long time."

Two recommendations for you:
For the full experience, please arrive at the meetup on time.

Participants quickly become good acquaintances and if you arrive late, you might be the 5th wheel on the wagon. Being there at the beginning feels much better and nicer ;).

Real friendships
Friendship research shows: Most good friendships come about between 2 men or between 2 women.

If you're a man, it's best to approach other men for real friendship. If you're a woman, find out who of the other women suits you as a new friend.

When looking for friends don't get distracted with flirting. Friends last longer than dates and partnerships. And friendships is one of the best thing you can do for your health.

These peope usually show up at the meetup:

• new to Berlin
• want to include new people in their circle of friends
• want to learn how to get in touch with people quickly and easily
• want to pass the evening in a pleasant way
• people who have already been to the meetup and want to meet again

Your host: Georg Preller
I love bringing people together.

It got so far, that I give trainings on friendship, writing a book about friendship and even consult organisations and institutions on how to overcome loneliness and connect people (employees, volunteers, people in need ...).

You can get to now more on www.legendary-friends.com or in German at www.abenteuer-freundschaft.de. Subscribe to the newsletter and get a 30 pages eBook about Great Friendships for free to enhance your friendships in life.

However, lets enjoy a nice evening and become friends.

Come and meet up more often

• Friendship develops when you meet up more often and have good interactions with each other. Therefore, I recommend that you come more often until you click with the right people.
• If you like someone and get along well: Arrange to meet up for other activities together. Change numbers on the meetup!
• Please write to me later if you have become friends :). My heart gets so warm reading these mails and messages.

The Science of Friendship
Friends are surprisingly equal. Often it goes like that: Similar education, similar looks, similar taste in music, comparable neighbourhoods, comparable income, comparable cultural background. Maybe you know the saying: Birds of a feather flock together.

Yes, Berlin is the place to mix that all up. That makes Berlin so attractive!

Still, when it becomes to best friends, people tend to have their best friends similar to themselves, and discover Berlin and inspiring influences together.

So, if you look for new close friends, I would recommend to look for similar people at the meetup (same sex, same values, being similar charasmatic, ... ).

If you want to know more, why friends are so equal, check the article on my website. It is a summary of scientific articles of leading German scientist on friendship (yes, that does exists). The article is in German, and people told me google translate does a good job: https://abenteuer-freundschaft.de/freunde-sind-gleich
