Message 2311 of 8635

Hi everyone,

I am new to this group and thought I would introduce myself. My name is Linda and I am a 61 yr old woman from Massachusetts, I am single after many years of marriage and trying to deal with the living alone and trying to get back to having a social life.

Hope to make many friends here,
Linda

Hi Linda- Welcome to the group. This is a nice group of people. I hope you participate often. My suggestion to newbies such as yourself is to just jump in and post as often as you like. You have taken the first step by posting this. Congratulations and I hope to see you in here again. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask either here on the message board or in PM to myself or to any other moderator and Manager.

Hi and welcome to the group! I've grown very accustomed to being single, but if you get a handle on the social life thing, be sure to tell me, ok? I'm always working on that, without much progress. Meetup groups aren't doing much in my area, I'm not into the bar scene, and my favorite hobby....cribbage.... is hampered by the fact that my ex has the same hobby, and I'm not too fond of spending time with him!

Thank God for good friends and eons.

Welcome to the group! I'm new to this group, also...and am just curious about this as a way to connect with other people. I agree with Honeybee, social life for a single isn't easy. Fortunately for me, I have quite a few things I enjoy doing at home (quilting, reading, exercising), so I am generally content.

Take one day at a time. And keep writing here!

Welcome to AES, Linda... I have only been here a few months myself, but the wonderful people here have helped me to feel right at home. I'm sure you will too in no time.

Hi Linda, from Bill in TX & LA. Where in Mass? I went to MIT in Cambridge/Boston. The name Linda has mixed emotions fot me. In college a wonderful lover - years later another Linda, now ex wife, did her best to 'remove my testicles through my wallet'.
