Hello Everyone... I'm changing the name because I'm changing the focus. Through my own experience in singledom that past few years I've learned that both hosting and attending singles events can be an exercise in frustration and disappointment. I have since learned what I've known all along. the best way to meet someone and develop a healthy relationship is to get to know them the old fashioned way. You hang out with them for a little while, become friends and take it from there. So without drab …

Hello, I am the proud mother of a 4 year old boy who believes he is a girl. I understand this may be a permanent desire of his - it certainly does not appear to be a phase. He is having trouble adjusting at school as other children find his behavior odd. I am looking to start a group for similarly situated families who want an accepting social outlet for their children as well as personal support for themselves. 2012 update - We are currently a group of a few moms/families trying to support our …

In addition, he has encouraged me to make this practice …

Happiness is a state of mind or feeling characterized by contentment, satisfaction, pleasure, or joy. Happiness comes from deep within, and not from people, situations, or circumstances. According to Researchers from Harvard Medical School and the University of California, San Diego: “When an individual becomes happy, the network effect can be measured up to three degrees. One person’s happiness triggers a chain reaction that benefits not only his friends, but his friends’ friends, and his frien …

I have been seeing, hearing and feeling spirit my whole life. I am a devoted student of life and a passionate believer that our loved ones who have passed on continue to communicate with us long after their bodies have left this earth—if we learn how to hear them. There is nothing more healing than to give or receive an evidential message from our loved ones in spirit. I believe that each of us has that gift to some degree.  For those who wish to develop their extra-sensory gifts, I offer class …

A working mom is a special type of mom who really does juggle it all. We need support, understanding, tips and friends to laugh with over the crazy happenings of our daily lives! As busy as we are, we need to find time for ourselves - for girl time.  We are hoping this meetup group will extend opportunities to busy working moms to vent, get together, have playdates, and maybe some much needed girl time.  I am hoping to get as much feedback as possible, to see what the current members are doing w …

I am a relatively new runner and am most comfortable in the 9:30 range over a 4 mile run. A little faster, a little slower; depends on the day. I also like company when i run. I plan to start my run at the entrance to the public garden at the end of Commonwealth Ave, just inside the gate at about 6:30AM most MWF mornings. I'll be the tall guy stretching. Hope you can join me!

Hi there! Its really tough when you have a kiddo diagnosed with Autism or a Special Need of some sort to put yourself out there and do things that parents with NT kids do. Im not pitting folks against each other, the overall experience is just different. We get the stares, the "How could that parent let that child get AWAY with that!" sort of feedback at malls, parks, playgrounds. . .just walking around. I am proposing a group thats only semi organized since many of us live in a life thats ful …

I initially started a meetup account to find people who were intrested in playing video games, lan parties, tournaments, ect. only to discover to discover the lack of such. Mass Gaming is just that i.e., a way for people to meetup and play games outside the internet community or their own social circle. Anybody into video games (and isn't a sore loser...hehe) is welcome. Particularly welcoming fellow organizers who are as excited to get this going as i am. As i am relatively new to MA (from NY) …

If you are fed up of hanging around with people who's only idea of fun is computer games, boozing, snoozing or staring mindlessly at a TV for hours on end. If you would like something more productive to do with your free time, something more interesting and more stimulating for your eyes, hands and creative mind. If you just don't have enough art related activities through the day and need to pack in an extra couple of hours outside of school or work. If you'd like to meet like minded individual …

What I am is someone who recognizes the benefits and vital need of making  meditation and mindfulness practi …

I am am amateur bird enthusiast that loves to watch and catalog the different variety of bird species that visit my back yard feeders throughout all of our New England seasons. I have been venturing into the woods of New England on some solo journeys to identify and photograph more species to expand "My list". However, th …

I wanted to create a fun group for moms like me who are pulled in all different directions and trying to balance all of the responsibilities of a modern mom! I feel like most if us are too busy to find friends for ourselves and for our children and I am hoping that this group will make that much easier. I have belonged to moms groups where my child was either too young or too old so I also want this group to be more welcoming to moms like me who have children of varying ages. I am hoping to incl …

Do you want a place where you can discuss your deepest feelings about yourself and the society we live in, in a supportive atmosphere? Many times, the culture we live in frowns upon sharing emotions, problems, anything that's really on our minds. We're expected to put up a front of "Everything's okay" all the time. But this just creates social isolation. The more isolated we are from each other, the more chance depression and anxiety have to breed. I am starting this group because I am not satis …

This social group was created with the purpose to help us come together and enjoy quality friendships.  Now and days, to find quality friendship...one must invest time.

Everyday People Imitating Christ-comes from the belief that you don't have your life for yourself only, but rather to be shared with others. We are hoping to learn from each other as we draw c …

I have been frustrated and overwhelmed with student loan debt, and have been increasingly alarmed about an entire generation in even worse shape because of the debt they took on for education. I am seeking like-minded people interested in getting involved with promoting political reform of the education debt/loan forgiveness. I am also interested in getting involved with educating local high school and college students about the risks of acquiring student loans. Finally I am interested in discus …

Let’s get together and have some fun! This is a group for those of us who are interested in conscious relating and community building. I started this group because I am inspired to get together regularly with like-minded people for games and exercises that bring out our authentic selves and encourage us to go deeper. I am looking forward to introducing friends from various parts of my life to new connections. Most months, our Meetup will be an authentic-relating Games Night and social time. Ano …

Hi, like many of you, I am home because of the lockdown alert put out by the governor. I am praying they find the second suspect and life can resume. When that happens, which it will, very soon....there should be a celebration. The citizens of Boston have shown the country just how united we are after Monday's bombings. I am heartbroken over the tragedy this has caused so many people and their families. Instead of cowering or letting this level of evil affect us, let us gather together to celebr …

What is this group all about? Our members aim to become better writers in social scientific disciplines and to see more of our work published. We also like to spend time with others in a lively social venue where we can share good times, good drinks, and good food. Where did the idea for this group come from? If you're like me, the challenge of writing books, chapters, and journal articles for publication can be vexing at times. Rather than succumb to the pressure, I thought it would be better …
