I've been spending time with this group of folks for a year now and have made some good friends; I consider them my soul family, and it's been very very good for me as far as learning how to be a social creature. Before current go-around of therapy, I only ever made friends at work, and so going to my first meet-up a year ago was my very first attempt really at making friends outside of work as an adult. It has gone VERY well so far!! Good luck with finding new friends in any case!
Thanks Artemis, yes, it's worth another try there for me: I played wallflower there to a writing group for a while, but with my schedule I simply couldn't make it work at this juncture (but in 8 months, much more likely!) so I gave up on group meetups for a bit, but I should look again!

Thanks.

I've gotten a second round of replies from some of my latest ad respondents, so that's interesting.
