Question...

So I've noticed that there are quite a few atl nesties who never come to the GTGs (or at least not any that I've been to). Is it b/c the timing is off for you, you don't live here,  or do you feel weird about meeting "internet peeps" in real life? i'm not judging, i'm just genuinely curious. Smile

Re: Question...

  • I live about 2 hours south of Atlanta, so it doesn't really work out for me.

  • I have only had the opportunity to come to one. When most of us were still on the knot. It is always timing. Before I used to live about an hour away from the North Atlanta GTG  so the after work ones were out of the question. Then the past Christmas one I was all set to go until I had to work. :/ I would love to meet all the new nesties. It would be nice meet more people. It's harder to make friends as an adult.

  • Its mostly timing for me. I always end up having something planned already, having school work to do or a combination of both. I'm free this weekend but I have 2 papers due next week and a brunch GTG on Saturday w/another group. I would feel bad using time I should be working to hang out since I already have something fun planned another time. And the one time I tried to plan an ATL Perimeter lunch GTG, I ended up missing it because my dumb azz didn't notice I had a work commitment on that day Sad. I hope to make it to one soon....
  • I went to one this summer, but mainly it's because I live 1.5 hours from Atlanta and it would be a half-day commitment to come to one
  • I went to one a long time ago and Kristi's house and haven't really had the desire to attend one ever since.
  • It's mostly timing for me. I was planning on coming to the one at Christmas and had family come in town unexpectedly.  And I really wanted to come to the one tomorrow but we already had plans.  I would like to meet y'all!

  • For me it?s a little bit of all the reasons you mentioned. I am totally nervous about meeting in RL and for instance the next GTG... It?s a really inconvenient location and time for me. I really want to go but I don't know what time I?ll be done with work and if it's worth fighting traffic to get there just as everyone is finishing up and about to leave...

  • For me, it's lack of time. Between working 2 jobs and volunteering a lot, I have very limited free time. The free time I do have goes to DH, family, and IRL friends.

  • I'm late to this -  I really wanted to go tonight, but we actually have plans for the first time since we moved here.  I hope to make the next one!

  • Timing for me.  I seem to be a work-a-holic these days :( Weekdays don't usually work for me.

     I went to lots before I got busy.
