Hi All,

I have a bunch of single friends, and so does my girlfriend. We had a discussion about throwing a gettogether bringing our single friends together. The problem now is, what activities could they all do together? Can you suggest activities that'll have a lot of interacting with eachother. My girlfriend suggested a movie night, but it's not a great way to meet people. I suggested that we have party games such as cherades, that would get everyone involved, but that was the only party game I can think of, and I'll have to buy a lot of stuff to make my living room presentable.

So can you suggest activities that'll be great at a singles gettogether? It'll be great if the activites took place somewhere other than at our homes.

Thanks in advance

Back in the '50's such gatherings used to be referred to as "The Middle Atlantic Mating Society".

Oh no! A couple throwing a singles party.......I steer clear if I even a whiff of such things. Laughing

Seriously though, please don't torture anyone with charades and other 'forced' games. It's horrible!

How about organizing a team sport like football, basketball, hockey whatever? That gets everyone involved, having fun with no pressure from the couplets on the 'singles' to hook up, and it's a great excuse to touch each other! :wink:

Afterwards, anyone who feels like it can go out for beers, or to your home, whatever.

That's just one idea. Whatever you do, don't make it a 'everyone needs to pair off' thing (I mean, don't make it obvious, bc that sucks for everyone involved!). Keep it fun and simply a bunch of people getting together to have a good time.

Back in my Single Again Days there were commercial single's dances with an cover charge to pay for renting the hall.

I understand the Lovely Sherri Hasblatt made a comfortable bit of pin money every Friday night.

To clarify, I just started dating the girl. I shouldn't have called her my girlfriend.

What would you do if you were giving a party for both couple-friends and single friends?

Whatever you think would be the most fun for any party is probably also the most fun for a singles party. The hooking up part they'll do themselves if they feel like it.

THese are just suggestions and may sound lame but may catch you attention but i agree with flushd and nimh

1 . I reckon a kareoki night out somewhere , if they offer prizes that would be more fun but alteast a few drinks will go around as well to motivate some type of attraction .

2. Just in general , organise a group dinner at a loal resturaunt but invite some couples as well so it doesnt look too obvious . In combine this with step 1 to break the ice .

3. Beach party ( dont know where you are but its bloody hot in Australia at the moment )

4. Go camping overnight , nothing does it better than eyeing someone over the fire and taking a walk with each other for a Deep and meaningfull , once again specially if a few drinks are going round . I like this idea as there is no one else around to distract the guys and girls from pairing up with each other in this group .

5. Game of golf , set up a few groups of 4 , not girl and boy teams but every man for himself , best score guy has to take best score girl out to dinner .


Let me know if im on the right track and ill come up with more , this is only 10 minutes worth off the top of my head .

Good luck .

in my opinion
if there are all boys ,organizing a team sport like football, basketball as flushd say is ok , but if there are boys and girls ,it is not a good advice.
and for boys and girls ,via the internet also a good way ,how do u think about ?
and i am single too ,anyone want to make friend please connect me
