I like MW area, but where are the others like me? I'm a Calif. transplant and miss knowing other single and/or "married" gay women and men, who are out, and interested in meeting new people for friendship. This IS NOT a personals ad. I'd like to chat with others (21 and over, please) to start an informal group: movie night, Sunday potlucks, game night, volleyball, etc..... Mary Ann maplemas@yahoo.com

Hey Mary Ann, Welcome to Maplewood. There are truly plenty of us in the area. I have met lots of g/l by chatting with people on the train, in the park, King's and the Diner. Me and my partner are always up for a fun night of games and cards. Drop us a line Vinny |

Welcome! There is an informal social group in town (to which we belong) but it hasn't met for awhile. My partner and I also love to welcome new people to the community. Drop me a private line, if you wish. Alison |

THe social group, South Mountain Neighbors, does have meetings (used to be regularly every other wednesday but have declined in the past year or so). There number is 973-313-1030. My partner Jason and I have been on Maplewood/SO for the last 7 years and have met a lot of g/l couples. We love it here |

My partner and I just moved to Maplewood and would LOVE to meet other g/l people. Would definitely be open to joining in on a get-together, whatever it may be. Potluck at our house anyone? (after we unpack a little more) .... Any suggestions from anyone? |

hi everyone. What a nice response. I figured all I had to do was knock on some more doors around here, since MW/SO has lots of us. I'll be in touch, Mary Ann |

Mary Ann- Knocking on doors works, too. In fact, we met a good friend when she knocked on our door. It was pretty funny. When we answered the door she said "I saw the rainbow flag & I'm looking for the lesbians. I've met lots of gay men so far". This was 2 - 3 years ago & we still hang out. If you see a rainbow flag, I think that most people won't mind if you knock & introduce yourself. |

Alison, That IS funny. I was using "knocking on doors" figuratively.

We're also up for a get together. We've been in Maplewood for almost 7 years now and love the people we've met. If anyone organizes a get together, count us in. Welcome, maplemas! HS....love the flag.  |

Jason and I would definitely be willing to host a get together. We live in the Berkshire Park Neighborhood near Clinton School. We should have get togethers. South Mountain Neighbors' get togethers have declined and many times are in towns farther away (Madison, Chatham, Morristown). When they occur they are held from 7:30p - 9:30p on wednesdays. I work in the city and usually get home between 7:30p - 8:00p and getting to these get togethers (specially farther away ones) on time is hard.

My userid/password was down for most of today... CFA... imitation is the greatest form of flattery . We just moved here and are definitely open to meeting other lesbian/gay folk here. We would be happy to host, but that will have to wait until we are a bit more unpacked... unless sitting on boxes is OK (smirk). Let us know when/where and we will be there. Cannot wait to meet any/all of you.

what evening do you all think would be a good one to have a get together. We would be willing to host a potluck dinner or just a snacks and drink social. We changed our handle from Johnh91011 to Jason & John

CFA, If this weekend does not work for you, does that include Friday? Any day this weekend would be great, but we are going away over the weekend of August 16 (the following weekend). What are other's schedules? Thank you Jason & John for hosting this first get-together. Where do you both live? |
