Anyway I'll be your friend and would love to hang or IM with you and others who responded to your thread. Maybe we can form an informal group and pick a spot to hang when we are not busy doing other stuff. I like the idea of a group. That way when people are around they can message the group and see who is around. A common meeting place could be chosen as well. Like IM the group and say "Hi, I'm hanging at such and such place today" Whatever place everyone decides on. Then whoever wants to chat or hangout can show up there or place of choice. Some common ground where people won't feel pressured to invite someone they don't know yet to their homes.

On one hand, I'm a shy person, so I do tend to keep to myself most of the time. On the other hand, I wear my heart on my sleeve and when I do meet and get to know someone I click with, I tend to jump in with both feet and develop meaningful strong relationships. So although I'll never be the social butterfly who is friends with everyone, I will usually have a few very close friends who I click with and understand beyond someone who is just a casual friend. My personality probably isn't very well suited for interacting with people in a virtual world, a place that is (by the nature of what it is) a more casual social atmosphere. You've had someone offer to throw you are belated rezz day party. You could give it a whirl and maybe click with someone.

I'm game for that, but not sure when people are online. I'm on during the day. SL mornings.

I know. That is part of it.

I met one of my best SL friends from just "Hello"

I've been around for five years and have a couple of close friends and my partner. When my partner isn't around I end up alone a lot because I don't relate well to people too often until I get to know them. I have to hit it off just right. We should have a group gathering of "I can't find people to hang with" people I laughed at that, for it reminded me of when I worked on a holiday camp around 20 years ago, and people would sit in the staff canteen in their little departmental groups. They always sat in the same part of the canteen, at the same tables. I was on late shift and worked in a kiosk in night time venue, so I did not know the people on day time shops, and didn't feel I could just wander up to them and sit with them, they seemed so cliquey, so I sat alone, until one day I found that all the 'oddments' had come to join me at my table - a German girl who worked as a chalet cleaner, but who felt she did not fit in with the others in her team, a girl from Holland who was still improving her English and because she was slow to wait on tables, the other waiters had shunned her, gardeners who were a little bit grassy and grubby from their toil, a bars supervisor (no one wants to sit with their boss), one of the retail catering chefs (did not eat what he had cooked!), and several others. Before long there were 16 of us in any one sitting, we had pushed several tables together to make one big table, and joked about it being "the table for people with no friends". I still keep in touch with some of them to this day. Yes that's how it should work! I'd suggest we do that....but then what if no one showed up? :matte-motes-stress:

I've been curious too what these were. Now I see. Not sure why though. I'm perfectly happy with my perky smaller ones.:matte-motes-silly:

I'd say #6 is really close. Just thin the lips a bit.

We went back to Flow and Joey bought a shirt. He liked it. Now they need to work on some ladies stuff

Thank you ! :matte-motes-bashful-cute-2: Of course I did! That's what little sisters do.

I think they both look really good. If you sold it I'd wear it.

I am creating a book club for anyone interested in reading. The club will not be affiliated with any business or store, although we may meet at local coffee houses or library's. I would like to meet weekly, on a day we can decide on as a group. If you like to read, all sorts of genres and are of a mature age, then you are welcome to join. We will decide on a book to read as a group, and decide a length of time in which to read it. We will then meet weekly to discuss the chapters or sections that were assigned to read during the past week. But keep in mind, this is not a school or job, so if you aren't able to complete the assigned reading during the week, its no big deal, but not reading the book week after week would defeat the purpose of being in the club.. We can also read together as a group. The details will be ironed out, once we get a group together. It will be a great opportunity to meet new people and make new friends. Please only serious and respectful people need join. IM me if you are interested and I can send you a group invite! Thanks, Dorian Stormwalker. I've been looking for something like this on here. Just don't know if I'd be on the same time as everyone.

Much appreciated, Liz No they don't really tell you when you are looking at them. But they do offer a lot of classes to help you with your pet when you buy one and join the group.

They are cute pets, but a lot of work trying to figure out the pathfinding to keep them from popping all over or getting stuck in the floors. They are chat command as well. So you have to learn what commands to use with them.
