Dallas/FW-area gay (mostly) guys/gals (and their friends) who meet weekly for Saturday breakfast, casual Wednesday dinner, the occasional brunch, and outing. We are a small group of familial friends. We **welcome all genders and ages**, but be aware that we are a "mature" (and fun) group of guys/gals...the average age being over 50. Come check us out! 😁 10/10/2024 - Please note…it has been brought to my attention that there are members of the group who are feeling uncomfortable with political talk at events (we actually had someone leave the group because of it). We have members on “both sides of the aisle”, and not everyone is vocal about their political affiliation. To be fair to everyone, I am asking that you save your opinions and, especially, trash-talk of political candidates and officials, for outside of my events. I would like our meal conversations, in particular, to be light-hearted and drama-free, and for everyone to have a good time.  Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

Moving to a new city can be isolating, intimidating, and lonely, especially one as big, spread out, and busy as ours! Dallas is a big place and it can be pretty intimidating for new comers, especially when you’re trying to find a friend. Whether you’re looking for a social circle, cultural enrichment, or just to unwind on the weekend, you’ve come to the right place.

The goal of this group is to help you make new friends and explore the city.

By coming out to our events, you can guarantee that you will always have a friend to talk to and someone to laugh off that initial awkwardness. This Meetup exist to encourage new friendships and create a supportive community for anyone who wants to join up.

The calendar will be filled with events such as happy hours, dinners, brunches, festivals, street fairs, art shows, trivia nights, museum events, performing arts, local “hiking” trails, and much, much more. You can come meet us there or explore independently. If there is something you want to do, try, or explore, just let us know. Suggestions and recommendations are encouraged and always welcome.

It is a truism that in order to make friends, you have to be a friend. This sounds so simple, but it is a lot more than it sounds. Here is a list of 10 things to help you be a friend: 1. Enjoy people – Tell yourself, “I'm going to try to enjoy this conversation.” Loosen up. 2. Express – Don't hide who you are. Tell people the first thing you think about. Let them know your thoughts. 3. Hear them out – People are sacred. They deserve your full attention and understanding. Take care and take time to hear them out. 4. Share – Share your food, share your time, share your money (within reason), share your thoughts and ideas. Be willing to receive things other people share, too. 5. Find commonalities – Chances are you can find something in common with everyone you meet. 6. Take initiative – Don't wait. Be the person to start a conversation. You have to take the lead sometimes. 7. Be willing to make mistakes – Not everyone you meet are good people. It's okay to be hurt by people, as long as you survive to tell the tale. Hey, tell it as a war story to the new friend you make! 8. Be positive – No one wants to talk to someone who is negative all the time. It's okay to be hurt; it's okay to have problems, but do you want your hurts and your problems to define who you are? Be who you want to be, which at least is a positive person. 9. Take responsibility for people – Take the responsibility to help strangers and acquaintances simply because you know you want to. 10. Tell them good things you are aware of – If you know of an amazing sale, tell them. If you know of something really fun, tell them. If you know of a really good place, tell them. Take action! Come to our upcoming free Zoom meetings and put the above tips to practice right away! Remember: In order to make friends, you have to be a friend. Be a friend. Let's start! (Watch the inspiring video below, which is custom made for this meetup group.) This group is created by the Dianetics & Scientology life improvement center to help people improve interpersonal relationships, social life, and make more friends.
