What weโre about
PLEASE READ ALL ๐ (click read more)
๐ New to town?
๐ Looking to make new friends?
๐ Or maybe everyone you know is simply busy, and you need things to do?
This is the group for you!
Not from Yorktown? No problem! We facilitate meetups all over Hampton Roads (Virginia Beach, Yorktown, Hampton, Norfolk, etc.). However, GJ mainly organizes activities in the Virginia Beach area (that side of the tunnel).
A little background:
I (Allie/Alisa) created this group in February 2018 during a turning point in my life. I realized that I am the creator of my happiness, and sometimes, achieving that happiness requires effort ๐ช. It's all about your attitude and perspective! You have to wake up every day and choose to be kind, cheerful, and proactive. Network, socialize, and strive for your goals! ๐ฏ I also needed more genuine friends and wanted a platform where I could do everything and anything (preferably not alone).
So here it is! Welcome to #BoredNevermore ๐ฅณ.
This platform also allows me to give back to the world ๐. Iโve experienced anxiety and depression and know what itโs like to feel crushingly alone. Making true friends who care and reciprocate isn't easy. This meetup was created to help ensure that no one feels alone. Iโm passionate about offering others what this group has given me. Remember, if this group isnโt the right fit for youโif weโre not your vibe or โtribeโโdonโt give up! There are so many groups with different people. Keep trying! Your happiness and quality of life are worth it โค๏ธ. Everyone has their niche, but I sincerely hope you find what youโre looking for here. ๐
How it works:
- Organizers will post events ๐๏ธ to see who would like to join. If you sign up and canโt make it, please update your RSVP!
- Want to host an event? Message GJ! Heโll be happy to help you create your event and assign you as the organizer. Just be ready to run the meetup in its entiretyโbe punctual, communicative, and reliable.
- This is NOT a singles group! If you meet someone and they turn out to be the love of your life, thatโs fantastic ๐! But remember, our focus is on having a good time, meeting new people, and making FRIENDS (emphasis on friends). If it appears that your sole purpose is finding a partner, you may be removed from the group.
- Please do not message members without connecting with them in real life at a meetup or having some shared interest (other than messaging organizers for relevant information). The point of this group is to meet people IN REAL LIFE! Messages that make members uncomfortable may result in dismissal. This rarely happens, but itโs important to be clear!
Thank you for being here, and above all else, have fun! ๐
What am I doing now?
Iโm (Alisa/Allie) finally back from Germany and now living in North Carolina! ๐ฉ๐ชโก๏ธ๐บ๐ธ Iโll be swinging down every now and then to hang out with you folks again! ๐ I canโt wait to kick off this next adventure in life and share some of it with you as well. ๐

โจ Ring in the New Year in the heart of Raleigh at the exhilarating Giant Acorn Drop on Fayetteville Street! ๐ As the centerpiece of First Night Raleigh, this beloved tradition takes place in the vibrant City Plaza, where the massive, illuminated acornโa nod to Raleigh's nickname, the "City of Oaks" ๐ณโdescends as the clock strikes midnight. ๐ The evening is packed with excitement, featuring live music ๐ถ, food trucks offering local delicacies ๐, and a spectacular fireworks display that lights up the downtown skyline. ๐ Whether you're a local or a visitor, this event offers a perfect blend of Southern charm and lively celebration, making it an unforgettable way to welcome the New Year. Come early to explore Raleighโs thriving craft beer scene ๐ป, then join the crowd in City Plaza for an evening of festivities that you wonโt want to miss!
๐จ This is a ticketed event, with tickets last year priced at $16 each for adults. ๐๏ธ The event runs from 2:00 PM to midnight, and Iโll be sure to announce when this yearโs tickets go live, so stay tuned! ๐ข๐
๐ NYE is my favorite holiday, and this year Iโm keeping it closer to home! ๐ Feel free to join me for the fun! Donโt hesitate to ask if you have any questions.
