Anybody around Massachusetts?

[Otareen]

Is there anyone around Mass or neaby states?

[RyanC]

I was in MA earlier today, and live nearby.

o/

I am around, but what convention would we even go to?

[LIamINSecret]

idk what conventions beside one of the ones in Boston like Comicon

[riverblade]

I am also in MA, but yeah don't know what convention we'd go to - don't think there are enough of us to make our own convention lol. We might have enough for like ... a Discord thread somewhere LOL.

[TETRO]

I live in Rhode Island, so not too far away.

[riverblade]

TETRO, Psh yeah you like right next door. Was briefly even dating someone in Rhode Island lol. Feel like thread needs to just be renamed using "New England" or something cuz all the states so small up here we can just bounce around

[riverblade]

Also I feel like with our kink searching for a con might be ambitious. Managing to put together a happy hour would be something I considered quite the victory LOL

I second this.

Go hit up Canobie Lake Park or Six Flags or something.

Aces, Wait I am a touch confused - what do those parks have to do with a happy hour or a con lol? A theme park trip seems rather conceptually removed from a kinky con

The point of the theme park setting or literally anywhere to meet up is intended to give a more casual, relaxed atmosphere preceding any kind of kinky stuff. Since, a lot of people will not want to just go straight to a random bar with random internet strangers. That part can come afterwards for people who are still interested in that.

It's an icebreaker. Meet up, do something fun, get to know each other, make connections, get comfortable with each other. Once comfortable, time to go drink. :U

Or just like, even a regular restaurant as an excuse to hang out and chat.

[riverblade]

Aces, Ahhhh gotcha gotcha - yeah that makes sense. Yeah have met for more icebreaker type things at restaurants (prob a bit less price exclusive than theme parks lol) - some pros and some cons vs. bars. The thing I noticed about the restaurant meetups is that everyone grabs a seat, so, if you're in a larger meetup, you end up talking with only a small fraction of folks who sat down next to you, whereas in like a bar things are a bit more loosey goosey and it's easier to drift around meeting more of the new people ... mind you I imagine any gatherings of folks with our shared interests may not face problems of the "this table is too big I can't talk to folks at the other end" nature

[pyrite35]

I'm in eastern Massachusetts.

[Aces]

Well I for one would be more than delighted to meet up with a bunch of random people from the area. I have no idea if any of you are even active, but if you're worried about what to talk about, I'd be happy to sperg about my stories for a couple hours over dinner. :B

I'd totally be down to meet people from the area too. I'm pretty active here.
