More details about our community:
Our events are aged at those between 30-50, however we have people who attend outside this range. We tend to have a fairly even gender split, but as the focus on single friends. We create an low pressure environment for meeting new people. The conversation is always great and the events are well organised.
One of the things I've noticed is what makes our events different everyone is keen to chat to all. I often send out this to attendees, so if you are feeling a bit nervous, you can find more info here on the group.
I write logs to the group on my journey of divorce to being single to falling in love with someone through building a friendship with someone I met at meetup, which you can find here: https://www.meetup.com/London-Singles-Club/...
Warm hugs,
Kelly

See all- The Perk of being a Wallflower – Film Prince Charles Cinema Fri 19th SeptemberPrince Charles Cinema, London
Film Synopsis:
The Perks of Being a Wallflower is a 2012 American coming-of-age romantic drama film written and directed by Stephen Chbosky, and based on his 1999 novel.
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, 1991. High school freshman Charlie is a wallflower, always watching life from the sidelines, until two senior students, Sam and her stepbrother Patrick, become his mentors, helping him discover the joys of friendship, music and love.
Charlie, a 15-year-old introvert, enters high school and is nervous about his new life. When he befriends his seniors, he learns to cope with his friend's suicide and his tumultuous past.
Logan Lerman stars as a teenager named Charlie who writes to an unnamed friend, and these epistles chronicle his trials, tribulations, and triumphs as he goes through his freshman year of high school. The film depicts his struggles with his, unbeknownst to him, post-traumatic stress disorder, as he goes through his journey in high school making new friends, portrayed by Emma Watson and Ezra Miller.
Production: Development
Chbosky incorporated both fictional ideas and personal experiences into the novel.[10] After five years with these elements in mind,[10] he had the idea of writing the novel during a difficult period in his life.[11] He was experiencing an unpleasant breakup of his own,[11] which led him to ask, "Why do good people let themselves get treated so badly?"[12] The author tried to answer the question with the sentence "we accept the love we think we deserve". This quote references the struggle of finding self love, encompassing one's life and hope for the future, and not just romantic love.[13]
Genre: drama
Runtime: 103 mins

Reviews:
This is my favourite movie I have ever watched I will have to watch this again and read the book
The Perks of Being a Wallflower is a heartfelt and sincere adaptation that's bolstered by strong lead performances.
I love this movie especially the characters because of how authentic and close to reality they feel.
This was an excellent, heartfelt movie that is filled with a story that's interesting from the very beginning & holds your attention til the final moments. Loveable realistic characters, high quality acting, family & friendship dynamics, not your usual predictable film that shares a story of teens where everything ends happily ever after. Unexpected twists & turns. I like how this movie handled tough topics that are often part of life during the high school years
Wow! I absolutely loved it! It is Very well written and extremely well acted by Logan Lerman as Charley, Ezra Miller as Patrick, & Emma Watson as Sam, and Paul Rudd as their English teacher, & Mae Whitman, & all the others were very good in their roles too.
What to Bring:
A smile and sense of friendship, support, interest and enjoyment :)
