If you’re like me, you are a single/divorced/or widowed, professional 40+ woman who works 40+ hours during the week and has little time (or energy for that matter) to develop friendships with other woman. I try to plan outings on the weekends – shopping, movies, hikes, festivals, Sunday coffee etc., and while I enjoy my own company it would be nice to share the experience(s) with a friend or two. So, I thought that creating “Weekend Friends” would be a great idea for women like me living in the …

Our goal is to provide a fun low-pressure environment/activity where individuals can connect one-on-one. Sometimes it's intimidating to go to a group activity all by yourself. Or sometimes you get lost in a big group event – you talk to everyone but get to know no one. Wouldn't it be nice to have a date at a fun event?  With our activities, you're welcome to come alone or with a date.  And if you need a date, we suggest HowAboutADate.com – post your activity, receive replies, choose your date an …

This is the group for people who love their adopted homeland of San Francisco but are forever tainted (in a good way) by their days spent living in New York City. You're thrilled that you now get to live in the Bay Area but New York will always be an important part of who you are. We get together to enjoy practically everything -- happy hours, city hikes, short hikes in the surrounding hills, street fairs, parades, concerts in the parks...just as long as we have a good excuse to get together and …

About us: Being 30-something can be a strange time to be single. Too old to party like you're 20, but too young to quite fit in with the 40+ crowd.

Well, if you are single, in your 30's, and looking to meet new friends with no pressure, this meetup is for you! The 30-Something social group was started by two friends who wanted to get to know other cool …

Okay, I'm putting this together on a whim to see if anyone is interested. I'm from the midwest, and we play a lot of board games there. I think it's a great way to actually get to know people and have a great time while you're at it. I'm also interested in figuring out exactly what makes a good game so addictive and fun. Anyone interested in meeting up and seeing what we can collectively come up with? Some of my favorite games are Balderdash, Settlers, Scrabble, Poker, the standards of chil …

Currently we host a meetup for women once every couple of months but we'd love to increase the frequency if more of you become interested and our membership grows. Additionally, SFFR hosts weekl …

Hey there, I've always been into dinner parties, sharing my kitchen, teaching cool cooking stuff, enjoying great wines, and making friends. I used to run a restaurant on my yacht a few years back, and found it very satisfying, so the idea I am developing here will be a hybrid of my passion and my experience. The goal here is to have dinner parties where we create a theme dinner, then you all can decide the level of involvement you want, from shopping, setting up, working in the kitchen, opening …
