About us
Anyone who's single and genuinely looking for a meaningful relationship is welcome to join Silent Ember Passionate Singles. We're all about creating a warm, inclusive space where locals can show up as themselves and connect without the usual pressure or games. Whether you're new to the area or just ready to meet someone special, if you're openhearted and intentional, you'll fit right in.
We meet regularly typically once or twice a month so there are plenty of chances to connect without feeling overwhelmed. Our events are thoughtfully spaced to give you time to reflect, recharge, and look forward to the next gathering. From cozy wine tastings to scenic hikes and game nights, each meetup is designed to spark real conversation and shared laughter.
While friendships often form here, our main focus isn't professional networking or career connections. This group is all about emotional connection, shared values, and building something lasting with someone who truly gets you. That said, the bonds you make might just lead to great friends along the way but romance is the heart of what we do.
Most of our events take place right here in Austin, where the vibe is as warm and vibrant as the people. We love tapping into the local culture from hidden gems in South Congress to quiet spots by the lake so you can explore the city while opening your heart.
If you're tired of swiping and small talk and ready to meet people who are actually looking for something real, Silent Ember is your place. These aren't just events they're opportunities to find connection in a world that often feels disconnected. Come as you are, stay for the moment, and who knows you might just leave with someone who feels like home.
