Do you ever find yourself looking for more from your relationships? Or finding that relating with others is challenging, and wish you could have help? This event may be for you. We’re having an afternoon of organized discussion about what it means to be human and to relate with others, followed by some connection exercises to practice skills and techniques. The discussion salon will include opportunities to share feelings in groups of different sizes. It’s a chance to feel heard and connected, and to practice openness and compassion and empathy. The connection exercises, following the discussion, will provide an opportunity to learn and practice skills that are helpful for open relating. These exercises may include opportunities for gentle, non-sexual touch and may tenderly touch on challenging edges for some people, including the possibility of some clothing optional exercises towards the end. Participants are always at choice, including choosing to observe the exercise or leave this part of the program. This month's theme is conflict & repair - this theme will inform some of the exercises and the discussion. But the overall format is similar from month to month. (Previous themes have included authenticity & vulnerability, and empathy & compassion) After the salon there will be a small casual gathering with snacks and a chance to connect informally. The duration of the event is about 3 hours. There is a suggested donation of $15 to cover the cost of snacks and materials. A donation jar will be available at the event. Note that this event is being run twice, once on Saturday May 16, and again the next day, because the last two events we ran were full and we had to turn people away. The content of the event will be identical, but the participants will be different. The Sunday event is already full but there is a wait list, and there's a decent chance that spaces will open up before it happens. The Saturday event has space. Each day there will be up to 12 participants; some are coming from the open relating community via Facebook or other contacts, while others are new to the community and are coming via Meetup. I will be asking registered participants and people wanting to be on the wait list for contact information other than Meetup, either a phone # for texting or a Facebook contact for messaging. This is because often things change at the last minute (e.g. spaces open up for the waitlist, people have questions about parking, etc., etc.) and I want to be able to contact you quickly, and experience has shown that most people don't check Meetup messages frequently enough to communicate quickly enough. I will send information about address and logistics to registered participants a few days before the event.

This group is to discuss and practice our French . Everu

**💙 Live Video Speed Dating with Toledo Locals — Real People** Once on Zoom, you'll go through host-managed one-on-one rounds with people from Toledo sorted by age and compatibility, as a skilled host keeps the pace natural. On completing your sign-up, you submit a short personality questionnaire — the matching data comes from to give you a personally matched Toledo lineup, meaning your rounds are curated and not random. Once the event finishes, your mutual matches are disclosed — but only if the feeling was mutual — and you reach out whenever you are ready. **Register under your age group:** - **Ages 18-32** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Toledo&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=18-32&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 30-46** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Toledo&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=30-46&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 40-58** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Toledo&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=40-58&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 55+** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Toledo&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=55+&face_v=4.0) **⚠️ RSVP is not enough:** Clicking rsvp does not complete your registration, so use the link for your age bracket above, sign up, and finish the short personality quiz — places are capped so do this promptly, and your spot is held only when both steps are done. --- **Ideal if you are:** - People based in Toledo moving beyond apps that waste evenings for no return and want to talk to real people tonight. - Anyone throughout Toledo who are tired of matches that fade out before meeting and want actual face-to-face conversation. - Singles across Toledo who are tired of endless scrolling and zero real dates and are after something more than a swipe can offer. - Someone around Toledo ready to move past matches that ghost after two messages and are looking for real connection. - Anyone across Toledo moving beyond the app treadmill that goes in circles and want to talk to real people tonight. **Your four steps** 1. **Find your age group** – using the link for your age bracket, then take the brief quiz, since your spot is held only once this is done. 2. **Open the call** – by clicking the Zoom invite at the event time, works on any modern device with a camera, and from there a live host guides everything. 3. **Connect** – quick private video rounds with Toledo singles curated for you by age and personality, while the host controls the pace so you can relax, since every person you meet was matched to you on purpose. 4. **Learn your results** – we share mutual match results after the session closes, since only mutual matches exchange details and everything else stays private, and you are in control of everything that happens next. --- ✨ Try something that actually works — sign up through the link above and everything else is sorted whenever you are set. Your next chapter might start tonight. 🌸 ✨
