How often do you all meet up on your own local area?

[Fedupwiththemates]

as mine is crap as we were all meeting up about once a month and now the thread is dying as no-one bothered to post on it anymore and last all met up was in April and even worse that the 2 group of people always meet up nearly every week and not involving the others - they dont hide it as they post it on our thread - i thought "Charming!" and i even mentioned that it would've of been nice if i was invited as ive had nothing to do all week and last week

ive asked if anyone wanted to go for a drink or meet up - nothing..!! so i thought fuck it ill go somewhere else

I've no idea as i don't go to meet ups but quite a few that I've looked at seem to talk more about meeting than actually meeting lol..

Maybe those two just hit it off particularly well, same age kids similar interests etc..

Anyway try not to get to fed up about it...why not try an new thread with the area expressed a bit differently or introduce yourself on members profiles afresh with a mention of the area and liking to meet up

There are always new people coming on mn so some one else might reply and feel like a get together

Sigh...think I know which area this is...people meeting up are not obliged to. Also a lot of people on thread I think it is have either
a. a lot of kids
b. suffer from depression making it difficult to go out
c. have sick kids.

Cant force people to turn up to meets and also have to consider a lot of people dont like going out of a night..I for one dont go out without my kids as I suffer severe depression..also very difficult with situations I have had happening with my kids. The meet ups on the thread have always peaked and troughed its the way it has always been..used to meet up every week at one point then it went less. Fair play about going elsewhere but dont have a bitch about it on the same site and make it quite obvious who it is.

I agree and just because you all live in the same place doesn't mean everyone is going to end up friends.

or go to the northern meet up?

I so wish I could go but am broke and not able to sell enough of my stuff as the same people keep selling stuff over and over again and people are fed up so not interested in mine

Shame..I never get how some people find it so easy to sell stuff and others like me or us can't sell anything?

was watching tv the other day about selling dodgy cars and we';ve tried to sell excellent cars and been totally unsuccessful and yet people are falling over themselves to buy mot failures? (not on mn obviously)

Weird isn't it, think to sell things well you've really got to have not many morals. I used to work in insurance sales but was rubbish as I was too honest, I'd tell people to go to direct line which was cheaper (i worked for NUD) and talk to lonely old people for hours instead of meeting my call targets im not cut out for sales at all.

I've even been to car boot sales and antiques fairs and people next to me have been selling tat and raking it in..you're right i think I always end up nodding and smiling with an oddball who is just there ti keep warm lol

oh well good luck to the op..ypu two obviously know who it is but I don't..

in all respects just try again

it just i feel left out and i just thought meet ups on the area thread is all about all getting together and not individual... BUT i know i cant force people to do anything on my behalf but i feel like saying "hello!, im here too!!", as i find it so hard to find the "friends" esp if im not from the area originally...

and i dont mean to bitch about anyone as at the time i just felt annoyed and wants to see whats others think of it

as i said i haven't had this experience really..I did once tentatively say something about going on a meet up (a bigger one not local to me) and felt i got a rebuff so quickly dropped the idea..
I think it pays to just be chipper and dandy and not take anything to personally
