My wife and I are a lesbian 30 something couple looking for some normal, down to earth / mature friends (gay and straight) that we can chill with.

We also would like to have a meet up group closer to our stomping grounds (go A-town!) and know there are other people out there looking for the same.

Do something. Learn something. Share something. Change something…. and play games! We remember times we've had game night with friends, and now, perhaps game night with Meetup friends works even better. Join for an easy evening of board games. We plan to hang at a bar, sip at a coffee house, lounge on a friend's sofa with sparkling conversation and a languid competitive effort. Break out. Toss some dice. Join us for some family-fun styled adult diversion.
