Please read to the end for important information and rules for the group! \*\*\* This group is for CHILDFREE and CHILDLESS couples who are married, or partnered and are embracing having a childfree lifestyle permanently. This group is not for parents, couples who plan to have children, or empty nesters. There are a lot of other groups for you.

If you are unsure that this group is for you, please join us for one of our virtual meet and greets and get to know others and ask questions.

The events can be dinners, brunches, classes, parties, happy hours, etc. You name it, we might do it! We are based in South Lyon, so our events could be anywhere from Novi to Plymouth to Ann Arbor to Milford. If you are interested in organizing an event in these areas or another, please let us know. RULES FOR THE GROUP 1. You must have a picture that shows your face. 2. The events are for childfree or childless couples, not for individuals to come without their partner 3.

You are responsible for paying your bills at any event. 6. You are responsible for transportation to and from the event. Since there is no official vetting of members of this group, please do not carpool with complete strangers by asking for rides from someone you have never met. Let’s stay safe! 7. Please drink responsibly.

Ann Arbor Couples - Making New Friends

Ann Arbor, MI

Howdy couples! Us & You: We started this in-person group to make new friends and help couples in similar situations do so. We are a mid-late thirties couple on the introverted side, with no kids(nothing against them!), who moved to this college town during the pandemic. While some in their early 20's might find us boring, and some seniors might find us unbearably hip(said no one to us ever), we don't have any age cut-offs for membership. Events will be kid-free, but we don't care how many kids you do or don't have. We welcome couples (or thruples) of any gender identity, etc, who -also- welcome said diversity. We also welcome we-have-thirteen-cats or we-have-matching-Falcor-tattoos levels of eccentricity, but would prefer to avoid Tupac's-not-dead or I-was-probed-by-aliens levels. No offense, Jeff. Our intention with a couples group is to have a more relaxed environment without the sometimes-awkward looking-for-love energy of other groups and normal environments. We have nothing against those who enjoy swinging or the like; but we personally do not, and that is NOT the point of this group. Events: We hope to host a variety of small-scale(6-12 people) indoor and outdoor activities, ranging from couch-potato to moderate activity levels, all in-person, and mostly around downtown Ann Arbor. These could include or combine: going out for coffee/food/cocktails, local events or live music, local attractions like the botanical gardens or museums, nature walks or picnics, standup paddleboarding and kayaking, or small party-game and cocktail nights. We might consider some split events like "dude-bros hang at house while ladies step out for drinks, then rendezvous for pizza" or such. Please feel free to suggest an event, or (once we're familiar with you) offer to host your own event in the group. Looking forward to meeting you, Nick & Cynthia Optional - More About Your Hosts We are 1 part lovely, functional human woman, and 1.2 parts (by mass) odd duck on stilts wearing a human man's trench coat. We've lived in Ann Arbor since June 2021; but, due partly to the remote and travel elements of our work, we've done a piss-poor job at figuring out what making friends in a new town looks like in your thirties. We have both separately hosted meetups in the past, and now as a couple since 2016(you guessed it: we met through Meetup), we are back here hosting together. Whether dining out or enjoying a homemade pizza night, we eat gluten-free due to her Celiac. We love our two cats (Simon and Kaylee), domestic and international travel(points and miles!), quality cocktails(growing bar at home, or out), and crappy one-liners or puns. We live on the edge of downtown, and enjoy walking from spot to spot, like just making a Saturday out of heading to a cafe, to farmers' market, to brunch, to distillery, etc. Outdoors, we enjoy hiking and stand-up paddle boarding. There's not a sport(other than bowling I guess?) that we really like to do together. We can manage frisbee with the light dollar store ones(mine from Ultimate hurts her hands). And folksy-rockish music is our overlap in the soundscape. Social sciences, plants, West Virginia, photography, drums, spreadsheets, moral philosophy, cooking, fantasy, less-biased news, yoga, TV/movies, we promise we'll have -something- to connect over. :)

Making New Friends in 30's and 40's.

Ypsilanti, MI

Welcome to making new friends in your 30’s and 40’s. As we get older, life changes and challenges can keep us from seeing our friends or having the same interests and lifestyle. Therefore, this group is for those who would like to build friendships, make connections and participate in a variety of activities with others. I’d like to create a variety of events in Ypsilanti and the surrounding areas. At times, there may be some interesting and fun events that happen outside these areas that I may put out there. Feel free to message me if you have any ideas or places that you think this group would enjoy. Some events may be capped at the number of people who can attend. Life happens, but please make sure to change your RSVP if you are unable to attend an event, so that someone else has the chance to attend the event. Let’s have some fun and make connections!

Friends Outdoors

Commerce Township, MI

Friends Outdoors is just that, friends who get together on a regular basis to have a great time together outdoors. Friends Outdoors are people who know each other or are connected with someone in the group who like to do outdoor activities, such as hiking, kayaking, Standup Paddleboarding, bonfires, and possibly camping and other adventures, group choice. Group members know each other, or are referred by someone already a member, which is a safer way to participate in a hiking group, rather than hiking with strangers. Members should be physically fit enough to hike 3-6 miles at about 3.3-3.6 mph. We will start out slow and work up to longer faster hikes based on the member's ability and wants. Disclaimer/Liability Statement: By joining Friends Outdoors, signing up for and participating in this or any Friends Outdoors event/activity, you and your guest(s) acknowledge all risks, dangers, and hazards associated with Friends Outdoors events/activities, and freely accept all such risks, dangers, and hazards, fully assuming responsibility for your own safety, and further agree to release and discharge the organizers of Friends Outdoors and Friends Outdoors events/activities of any and all liability arising from your guest(s) and your participation in the Friends Outdoors events/activities.

Michigan Multifamily and More Real Estate Investors Club

Brighton, MI

This real estate meet up will have three goals:
- Provide a platform for real estate investors of all experiences to network and get deals done
- Provide a place where investors get education in topics they desire
- Provide a broader perspective on mindset, eliminating limiting beliefs and entrepreneurial growth

While the meet up will have a specific concentration on multifamily, investors from all asset classes should attend. The general concepts (flipping, buy and hold, cash flow, etc) cross all investment types.

As this is a new meet up, we will determine if it's necessary to create niche groups specific to syndication or other areas of multifamily to cater to the apartment investors in the group.

We'll keep it simple for the first couple of meet ups - let's get together, network, get to know each other and brainstorm where we'd like this meet up to go!

The Goodly Group

Milford, MI

Goodly: of a good quality; excellent, admirable. The Goodly Group is a completely free and open place for people to figure out how to life their best life and then practice living it. It is for everyone, but especially aimed at those trying to discover, retool, reorganize, or reinvent their purpose and the effort that goes into finding happiness and fulfillment. The entire premise of the meetings is to help others get answers to whatever questions they have about their life through philosophy for those that would rather avoid organized religion or mystical dogmas. The purpose of this group is to find and sustain happiness, to be sure, but it is really nothing more than a shameless advertisement for journaling, mindfulness, and gratitude. The group meets every Sunday morning and a few times during the week. Everyone is welcome to any meetup. Sunday meetings are recorded with links appearing in that week's comment section.
