This is a group for anyone with a mild physical disability that would like to meet new friends. I started a group like this years ago when I was younger and the response was wonderful. Now at 26 years old, it is very hard to meet people who understand, I am no different than anyone else...I have the same wants and dreams. The only thing is I have a little difficulty walking and use a cane. I also have a Service Dog... so anyone with Service Dogs or use a wheelchair are welcomed. We could meet at …

The hardest part about the shy part of my past life was going to a party or event, hanging around for a couple of hours and no one ever knew I was there to begin with. I guess I was invisible to all of them. ***But being invisible was my own choice, wasn't it. I was uncomfortable being around strangers. I avoided social situations where interaction was required. I worried all the time about what others thought of me when I spoke and I never seemed to know what to say anyway. Any of this sound fa …

The more milage we go, the more canyons we carve, the more apex we rip together, the stronger the bond. We love to find new canyons to twist through and enjoy the beautiful scenery at every stop. We will make trips to the tracks to test and better our skills to the max in a safer and legal environment, but we will also have a BBQ just to post up on our bikes, look cool, a …

This group is for families with kids and where at least one of the parents can speak Russian. I am Russian myself, and would like my almost 3-year old daughter to have Russian-speaking friends who live close by. My husband is an American, and we therefore speak English at home.

I am truly a "HICK FROM THE STICKS" of NE Texas and was raised on a working cattle ranch and dairy farm. The black and white picture on the home page isn't a stock photo off the net. It's me, my brother, two cousins and our grandpa's dawg. He's in the middle...the dawg. In my life so far, I've discovered that I STILL like hanging out with Southerners way more than most urban types. I took on this Meetup site to see if I could gather a bunch of like minded peeps like myself for casual and not so …

What this is not: This is not Gamblers Anonymous. This is not a 12 step group. This is not religion. This is not anyone advising you on how to run your life. This is not a group to support other addictive tendencies. I apologize if you found your way here thinking otherwise. There are other support groups, but it has been recognized, by many, that there is a lack of support for individuals with our peculiar habit. What this is: This is an attempt to fill the void in the support options we have a …
