This group was created for the 20s-30s Northern Va woman who is new in town(or has been here for awhile) and wants to make new friends. While there are some great groups out there, I've noticed that they either grew quite large and the meetups filled up quickly or some of the meetups were occurring less and less. This group enjoys happy hours, brunches, dinners, movies, outdoor activities, trips, etc. We have a calendar full of upcoming events, so find one that interests you and join in :) Thank …

Hi! This group was started because although there are a lot of great groups, there wasn't one for "mature moms". Moms in their 30s, and older with newborns and infants. I am 33 and have one young child. When the original organizer stepped down, I stepped up because I wanted to make sure that the group for mommies like me would still be around. Hopefully there will be an interest :) I too, like the group's founder, am not from this area, so would love to meet new moms and explore the Alexandria …

The name of this group is misleading, think less sex more city, lol! Have you ever asked yourself, how do I make or meet friends (now that I'm not in college and I don't really want to hangout with my coworkers all the time?)  When I watch shows like Sex and the City, Girlfriends, Seinfeld or Friends (actually I don't watch all those shows, but I get the premise lol); I desire a group of friends like that.

We created this group for the simple fact: Men need other men to support each other as Fathers. Several of us got tired of not having guys to help support each other or to be friends with, so our kids can see us in positive and healthy male relationships. Often there are issues with dating and other ladies being around, and the stress of parenthood on a new relationship can be too much. We want to be men, helping men to be awesome fathers and better mates the next time around. And most important …
