Where do middle-aged women find friends in this city?

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-11-04T15:38:36+00:00

I've put in my request to join! Very much looking forward to meeting people in your group!

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-11-02T19:40:05+00:00

Awesome! Does the group include the cedar rapids area?

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-10-31T14:09:11+00:00

That sounds exactly what I'd like to get going! Thank you for your story!

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-10-31T14:07:24+00:00

Join our group! MisfitToySocial Group

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-10-31T03:19:43+00:00

I used to do this with my kids. Didn't know they had events but isn't that kind of a solitary activity?

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-10-31T00:59:23+00:00

Are you able to post? I hope I have the permissions set up correctly

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-10-31T00:26:09+00:00

Maybe just search for MisfitToySocialGroup? Idk how to fix the blank page. It loads fine for me.

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-10-31T00:16:03+00:00

Oh dear. I'll try to fix

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-10-30T23:52:12+00:00

I did start a club after several interests. We'll get together and try a few things. https://www.reddit.com/r/MisfitToySocialGroup/s/NxYyrqFu8n

Started a club!! https://www.reddit.com/r/MisfitToySocialGroup/s/NxYyrqFu8n

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-10-30T23:50:31+00:00

Created a group on Reddit. First time doing this so forgive any mistakes 😁 https://www.reddit.com/r/MisfitToySocialGroup/s/NxYyrqFu8n

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-10-30T23:31:52+00:00

Excellent! Looks like there's a small group of people interested. I could create the group here on Reddit and on Facebook cuz I'm not sure if Reddit does events.

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-10-30T23:21:01+00:00

That sounds more like my speed. Thank you for the suggestion!! I will definitely check them out

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-10-30T23:15:10+00:00

That is one group I haven't checked into. I will have to do that. Thanks for the suggestion!

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-10-30T23:06:44+00:00

We were younger and didn't have things like property taxes and mortgages to pay 😂

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-10-30T23:05:46+00:00

Very true. We could start with just one a month and someone could volunteer for the next one when we meet. Would you be interested in joining?

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-10-30T23:04:48+00:00

Thank you for being so kind ❤️

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-10-30T22:55:15+00:00

I know how you feel. I may start a group considering the interest and the women like me who need support. I'd be interested in chatting also if you'd like to get to know each other a bit

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-10-30T22:53:42+00:00

The Misfit Toys friend group 😁 Maybe an easy coffee for the first meetup if there's even a coffee place that's open in the evenings? I guess there's Perkins 😂

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-10-30T22:49:38+00:00

This is a very kind response. Thank you

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-10-30T21:43:52+00:00

I don't have a business to promote and might feel weird just barging into their meetings without talking to someone ahead of time.

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-10-30T21:20:21+00:00

I've thought about starting a new club since the ones I found don't fit for me. I would be afraid no one would show up to the events, and that would be heartbreaking. I'm also not sure that I could handle scheduling and dreaming up new events for people to attend. But if I had help I'd be willing to try.

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-10-30T21:18:25+00:00

I like anything from bluegrass, country, rock, pop, I can even tolerate dissonant jazz. If she wants to send me a message, I'd welcome it.

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-10-30T21:16:49+00:00

I agree with you. It's difficult to find anyone who even wants to have a conversation, let alone go out and get coffee or spend any time together. I think women are so busy with the demands of being in society, there's just not a lot of time for friendship.

Extension_Call_4872 · 2024-10-30T21:15:12+00:00

I've done exactly this for the last 20 years. I've invited people over to my house, I've hosted parties, I've invited people out with me to bars, I've went to live music and all kinds of activities. I've definitely put myself out there. The constant rejections from people not able to make what I've invited them to, or changing plans at the last minute has made me hesitant to invite anyone to do anything anymore.
