Comment on Making Friends Over 30 with Grubwithus

Comments

There's also Grouper http://joingrouper.com, which pairs three men with three women. It only serves NYC at the moment though.

Grouper might be a little...um...different than GrubWithUs [1]. There's a little more of a feel of a "group date" rather than, "I want to meet new people." As somebody well attached, I would feel rather uncomfortable in a Grouper setting, but not in a GrubWithUs setting.

Grouper is in beta in SF as well. I've been on one and my friends have been on several. It was fun, but so far no one has made any friends (or started dating), so I don't know it's a solution to this problem.

Although it doesn't state as such, everyone I know that has used Grouper has done it in a group dating context rather than a "making friends" one.

I did not know that. Thanks for the clarification.
