it is pretty hard here to find anyone locally situated....we are global community but good luck and get used to talking online with us here...we understand and do not judge...I am bill...nice to meet you....hugs

Hi. True dat what bill said. but u nvr know.

Have u looked up meetup.com yet?

Used to be..Plenty of Fish** had a set of options
one of which was "activity partner"
and POF had a set of options:how far from your home to _advertize_.

** POF is an online dating site.

Those first-mentioned options were mainly what a person (seeking a date) might be looking for. Like mrg, commitment, just-dating. But for old ppl, often wanting someone to go to concerts with, mall-walking, eating out -- is their wish. That's why it's there. But it someone aged 40 wants a person to go jogging with, she could just say activity partner, check the age ranges she thinks are likely....

In a big city where there are 10,000s ppl on POF this likely would work.

Not guaranteed, sorry. . . . . . Calm/Kitty good luck . :)

How I wish we all lived near each other! But we do with what we have. Thank goodness for DS is what I have to say!! Lots of hugs GB

What is POF?

Sorry. Nevermind. My headache is getting worse and I didn't see it till I reread it. Dummie me...

Okcupid and badoo are also free sites with the option to make friends. Meetme I don't care for but that is another free site. Good luck!

I was hoping that GDJ1957 would stop back in and talk with us but her hasn't been around here that I can see...shame because everyone has given him/her some good ideas about how to meet with some others for activities...

Not necessarily a shame. Maybe he or she is keeping busy with ppl/activities or had success with another site in regards to an activity partner or chatting (=
