About us
About the group
This group is for young adults ages 18-22 who want low-pressure, real-life connection in a small group setting.
It’s especially for people who:
- Have trouble making friends
- Feel nervous showing up alone
- Want an easier, more relaxed way to meet others
This is not a dating group. There’s no expectation to be super social or outgoing. The goal is simple, relaxed hangouts where people can meet, talk, and connect naturally with others in a similar stage of life.
The group is open to Chicago and the Chicagoland suburbs. I’ll be hosting events in different locations so people from different areas have a fair chance to attend.
To keep things comfortable and personal, each event is limited to 3–7 people total. Please respect the age range so the space stays aligned and welcoming.
What to expect
- We’ll meet at a public spot and chat for a bit
- Simple introductions, just your name and one or two things you like
- Depending on the event, I’ll bring one or two board games if it fits, but joining in is totally optional
- You’re welcome to just watch, hang out, or talk instead
- Bringing spending money is recommended, but not required
- No forced activities or awkward icebreakers
You don’t need to be outgoing, and you don’t need to stay the whole time. You’re free to leave at any point if it feels like too much.
If you connect with someone, you’re welcome to exchange contact info, but there’s no pressure.
Ongoing meetups
I’ll be hosting small group hangouts once or twice a month, depending on my schedule.
This group is about showing up as you are, having something simple to do, and letting connection happen naturally.
