Ladies join to extend their social circle

January has come and gone, the New Year Resolutions have been forgotten, and life has returned to the normal routine.

With the New Year comes new optimism – a time of planning, looking forward to adventures, both in work and home life.

And what have we got in store at togetherfriends? We have begun 2014 on a roll, with articles in ‘Ilkley Matters’ magazine, ‘North Leeds Life’ magazine and online, ‘the Yorkshire Times’.  As a result we have attracted many women to the site, looking to broaden their social circle:

  “Now at a time in my life when I have cut down on work and am enjoying having some "me" time!  I help look after my grandchildren a little bit but in between want to start doing personal things I enjoy.”

“I have recently moved to Yorkshire. I'm a photographer and like walking, I've also started printmaking…..  It would be nice to meet up with people to go for a drink, listen to a band, visit an exhibition…”

“I like to think I am a young 72. Divorced 28 years. Retired 10 years, looking for female friends, for chats and laughter. To wander garden centres, antique and craft fairs. Would like to discover new places”

“Looking for good company and good conversation. I occasionally enjoy a nice walk, like watching sport - mainly football, & comedies on TV. I like rock/alternative music. I also like to read, mostly history books and have researched my family tree. I'm single and work full time.”

“I am a widow aged 69 years and cared for my late husband. I moved here just over a year ago to be near my daughter and her family. I would like to meet people who share some of my interests.  I am interested in computing and learning new things.”

“I have plenty of friends but they do not always share my interests and we are all busy.   I like going to the gym.”

  “I like to live life and make the most of my free time. I love to go on mini adventures be it out for the day or evening socialising, walking and meeting up with like-minded females.”

“I have lived and worked in Southern India and backpacked across India and Nepal. I would love to meet others to connect and have fun. Particularly interested in doing more walks and interested in spiritual aspects too.”

“I left teaching 4 years ago and now am at home with my mostly retired husband. I love being at home, but really miss the social side of work. I know a lot of people, but many of my friends work, and I would really like to meet some new friends who share some of my interests for meeting up during the daytime.”

“I love walking my dogs and do some running. I like to laugh and enjoy socialising. I enjoy reading and watching the odd chick flick. I'm always on the go and enjoy a busy life but always find time for my friends.”

“I have friends who I meet up with but are not local.  Making the effort to go out alone to an art club or keep fit class can be difficult unless you have arranged to go with someone.”

“I have a young and positive outlook on life.  I enjoy keeping fit - zumba classes - swimming etc.  I enjoy travelling, love art and love fashion.  I am a very loyal person and like to think I am pretty easy going - non judgemental and want to expand my network of friends and meet new people.”

“I'm 48 years old.  I have a dog and a cat. I have recently joined Slimming World and also the gym to get rid of a fair bit of excess weight.  Would like to meet new friends and get out and about a bit more.”

Over the coming months we have plans for more articles in local and regional magazines, aiming to reach out to more women who feel that they can connect to togetherfriends.com. Women are already chatting online and arranging to meet up.  We look forward to welcoming more women to the togetherfriends network.
