What we’re about
Hi! I am attempting to start a group, based on not being able to find something similar myself. I'm a socially awkward person who still desires socialisation just the same. I don't drink, and I'm not into the rugged outdoors. I'm just looking to meet some like-minded people, make friends, and hang out really doing various things. Since I'm also broke a lot of the time lol, I wanted to make it really casual, so that people don't feel they need to spend any money to take part. I am a little on the 'nerdy' side. I like to live a healthy lifestyle. I am a lifelong activist. I am allergic to pets, so sorry, but no animals.
My goal is to form 'intentional friendships', more like what use to be the norm a few decades ago. Not just endlessly texting one another, and too busy to squeeze someone in. But really being present in each other's lives. Feeling OK just showing up at each other's houses, etc. I picked some categories that I liked, even though it wouldn't let me choose about 30 more that I initially selected lol. It's limited to only 15 choices, so, I did the best I could. If it's not on the list, it doesn't mean I'm not interested in it.
I want to mention I am on the spectrum, and so I do things a bit different than the average person, and so anyone similar is more than welcome. This isn't an exclusive group, though I am trying to find an outlet for people like me who otherwise struggle to find a way to meet people. Whether you are a single parent, a busy worker, shy, or any way 'different. I am hoping we can meet up, maybe hash out some ideas of what we would like to do, no pressure. Just be yourself. This is just to gage initial interest. I welcome suggestions.
