If you're tired of endless swiping, casual dating, situationships, and relationships that never seem to go anywhere, you're not alone. This event was created for singles who know what they want and are ready to meet others who feel the same. Whether you're looking for marriage, a committed relationship, starting a family, having children, intentional parenting, or even exploring co-parenting with the right person, you'll be surrounded by people who are dating with purpose and thinking about the future. No games. No mixed signals. No wasting time. Just meaningful conversations with local singles who value commitment, compatibility, and building a life with someone special. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎟️ RESERVE EARLY & SAVE ❤️ Early Bird Admission — $15 ❤️ General Admission — $20 ❤️ Last Chance / Door Admission — $25 ⚠️ Tickets are limited and often sell out in advance. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 💍 This Event Is Perfect For Singles Who Are ✅ Seeking a serious relationship ✅ Interested in marriage and long-term commitment ✅ Want children someday ✅ Looking to build a family ✅ Open to intentional parenting ✅ Interested in meeting others who share similar life goals ✅ Curious about modern family-building paths, including co-parenting ✅ Ready to meet people face-to-face instead of endlessly swiping ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 👶 Family, Children & Future Planning Welcome One of the biggest challenges in dating is discovering months later that your life goals don't align. At this event, you'll meet singles who are open and intentional about discussing the future. Many attendees are interested in: ❤️ Marriage ❤️ Having children ❤️ Building a family ❤️ Intentional parenting ❤️ Finding a life partner ❤️ Exploring modern family-building options ❤️ Meeting people who share similar values and long-term goals These conversations don't need to happen on the first date—but it's refreshing to know you're meeting people who are thinking about the same future you are.

For the month of June, we'll be back in DC for dinner at Madhatter, an upbeat bar/grill: https://www.madhatterdc.com/lunch-dinner-menu It's just a few minutes from the Dupont Circle stop on the Red Line. If driving, parking is free but challenging. A couple of disclaimers: this is not a "meet market." Many of us desire to become DINKs at some point, while others do not; let's not assume the former for anyone. In the spirit of the overall group, this is inclusive in that regard. But please just come with the intent to have fun and connect with other CFs, not to hook up or partner up. If it happens naturally, awesome. But please don't have that goal in mind. You can bring a guest provided they're single and childfree. If something comes up and you can't make it, please switch your RSVP to "no" by Friday, 5/6/19 at 5 p.m. That said, if you've repeatedly signed up and then switched your RSVP to "no," I reserve the right to move you to the waitlist if we have enough people wanting to go. Reservations are limited to twelve; if anybody wants to make their own reservation so we can have more, let me know, and I'll increase the size.

We'll try to hike again. Hopefully, the weather cooperates this time. There's a shelter at 2401 Tilden Street we'll meet at. It's a simple out and back, not too steep. If we're up for it, we can grab some food at one of the nearby eateries. By signing up for this hike, you indicate you are responsible for own safety and do not hold the organizer or Meetup responsible for any injuries incurred. You may bring as many guests as you want provided they're single and childfree.
