Finding Female Friends Past Fifty® |Dallas-Ft Worth Chapter
[Finding Female Friends Past Fifty®](https://www.meetup.com/Finding-Female-Friends-past-Fifty-or-FFF-F/) In the second half of our lives, many are finding that we are without the social connections we yearn for. And past fifty, finding friends is a challenge. I started this group in 2016 thinking that the challenge was limited to LA. But when the New York Times article about FFF>F went viral, I realized I had tapped into a demographic need. [https://www.nytimes.com/2018/12/31/style/self-care/finding-female-friends-over-50-meetup.html](https://www.nytimes.com/2018/12/31/style/self-care/finding-female-friends-over-50-meetup.html) So, if you're looking for friends, please join us. We are a group of seasoned, interesting, and supportive women. After a few meetups, you will begin to make connections and form friendships....not overnight, but over time. True, we have had to pivot from in-person to online events for the time being. But that has not prevented us from connecting. We have a wide range of virtual events. If you live in LA, and want to join us, please consider taking an active role by becoming an event organizer or host. At 2,700+ members, your collaboration is essential. One person at the helm can't possibly produce enough events to satisfy this large and eager membership. Plus what better way to bypass the waitlist than to host or create your own event? If you want to sign up for our monthly newsletter/event listing, which includes all three of our groups (Finding Female Friends past Fifty, Kitchen Table Talks, and Being Elders). Please subscribe here: [https://tinyurl.com/FFFpastF](https://tinyurl.com/FFFpastF) IMPORTANT! IMPORTANT! I require a picture that shows your features--a close-up of ONLY your head & shoulders, no sunglasses, low hats, profile shots. As Organizer your picture is an essential tool, often the only way to tell one member from another. Plus it sets the tone of openness and welcoming that underscores our mission. PLEASE check your profile picture BEFORE you request membership. If your picture fails to meet the requirements, your request will be denied. Here's how to change your profile picture: [https://help.meetup.com/hc/en-us/articles/360002878591-Changing-or-removing-a-profile-photo](https://help.meetup.com/hc/en-us/articles/360002878591-Changing-or-removing-a-profile-photo) One more thing: I must be able to communicate with you. To do so your EMAIL UPDATES and NOTIFICATIONS must be turned on in SETTINGS both on your computer and phone app. Without notifications, it will be hard to get into events, as you won't know when new ones are posted. For instructions on how to change your settings, go to the FFFF home page. Click on MORE (under the picture of the lovely ladies), then click on MESSAGE BOARD. Select our group (FFF>F). Now select "Email and notification settings." Make sure you've checked all the boxes that allow me to email and notify you. The Message Board is available on the web application, but not on the mobile app. To edit Settings on the mobile app, go to your profile icon, (bottom right corner), then go to the 3 dots icon (upper right corner). Select "Push notifications", then select "Change email updates." Make sure you greenlight all the options. Don't let a long waitlist deter you from RSVPing. There are always cancellations, and if there's a long enough list, where possible, we will add a table or make a second shift. One last thing: FFF>F IS ABOUT FINDING FRIENDS, NOT CUSTOMERS. SO COME PREPARED FOR CONVERSATION AND CAMARADERIE. AND, PLEASE, LEAVE YOUR BUSINESS-NETWORKING HAT AT HOME. Looking forward to meeting you! Dale Pollekoff, founder Corina, Organizer, DFW chapter

Fort Worth Fun & Travel Friends

Fort Worth, TX

Fort Worth Fun & Travel Friends
This group is for travelers who don’t want to wait on their friends to finally say “yes” to travel. Life is too short and the world is too big! The trips in this group are usually 90% solo travelers but everyone is welcome, female/male, solo/couple/friends, straight/LGBTQIA+! So let’s travel together with fun, like-minded travelers! If you have an open mind and are kind to fellow travelers, you will fit in perfectly on these trips! **The local events in the group are member-driven** so if you’d like to host a Meetup in your area (i.e. a brunch, happy hour, travel talk, coffee, go for a walk, etc), feel free to let me know and I'll help you get it set up in the group! **NOTE:** The people on these trips are from all over the States but you’ll always be connected with people from the same city on a trip so you can meet up face to face and get to know your future travel buddies prior to the trip. You’ll also be connected to the whole group via email prior to the trip so you can virtually get to know those that are from different areas. On average, the people on each trip are 90% solo travelers but it’s hard to predict the exact demographic for each trip so please keep this in mind. Feel free to join the Facebook group to connect with past travelers on these trips, see pictures, ask questions, funny travel memes, travel-related articles, etc: [https://www.facebook.com/groups/613025845523107](https://www.facebook.com/groups/613025845523107) The trips in this group are put on by a tour company called Globe Drifters and they focus on small group trips geared towards solo travelers with the mission of giving new meaning to travel by putting the human experience at the heart of their trips. The groups are small, usually with 12 people maximum per trip and about 90% of everyone on each trip are solo travelers so you’re not stuck being the odd man out on trips with mostly couples. You’ll have the best of both worlds, solo travel with the security of a small group of other solo travelers for some company on your adventure! To contact Globe Drifters directly, you can email [info@globe-drifters.com](mailto:info@globe-drifters.com).
