Have you met 'proper' friends on hitched?

I've joined this late but yes I have made a good friends with a Hitcher. We used to meet up lot's for drinks and dinner but now she has a baby boy (who is adorable) we don't get to see each other as much. Although we are meeting up in May for a catch up.

I have met people IRL on here, only once though. One girl I met ended up making all the jewellery for my wedding and she is lovely. I know I could pop and see her for a coffee.
I'd like to meet more people I think, once that initial meeting is over and done I think I could have some good friends. Im shy though so I struggle with things like that.
Unless they turn out to be a bit of a nutter like Kookachu?

Come and meet me and HS! Then when she moves to Leeds, we can go up together and stalk her. It'll be lots of fun ?

See, I think we would have a laugh - or you would hit me hard, one of the two.?

We could do both, no? ?

Dooooo it, come to London, I'll be good ?

I almost met one once but was late [:I]

I've often thought about going along when the Bristol hitchers meet but i'm frightened they'd think I was a dullard [:I]

Funny you say that, quite a few Bristol hitchers were lovely to me when I was moving down here from Scotland last year and I was looking for advise. Hazel added me to the meet list but I always lost the nerve at the last minute [:I]

In my WP days there was a Manchester meet that I went to and met several people who were very nice.

Since then I've met one other hitcher and we get on great - regularly swap e-mails as we don't actually live near each other.

I'm always very envious of the London meets as they sound like such fun and with fun sounding people and not very far from my part of London village.

I would love to have met people from here and made some new friends but live far too far away - Highlands in Scotland.

When I lived in Edinburgh I came along to a meet at Bar 38 on George street but chickened out and went home. How sad is that. xx

id="quote">

Woohoo another Highland hitcher! Where are you HOney? I'm in Easter Ross, and work in Inverness.

I also met my best friend here, but since not being able to come on in daytime, I tend not to be about so much.

I haven't met anyone but that's just because of Geography.

I'm a Billy No Mates! ? ?

There are a few Hitchers I think I'd get on really well with and have a ball if I ever had the chance to go to a get together.

I've not met anybody either, but may have the misfortune of meeting grand opportunity to meet Cariad soon ?

Cariad is one of the Hitchers I'd like to meet. She seems a bit mad and comes from my part of the world so we've a few things in common. ?

I'm sure you'll have a great time!

I've not met anyone, I'm just a litle too far out of London and there doesn't seem to be anyone from my part of Surrey. Also, I don't think I'm chatty enough on here so haven't really "got to know" anyone which is a shame.

Sometimes I can feel a little bit like every single other member of Hitched is RL friends with all the others, except me and the loons ?

I haven't made any real life friends from Hitched ?
I went on a Planning meet about 3 years ago now (Warwickshire) but then I couldn't go to the next one and after that we moved out of the area. I promise I didn't make them into slippers.
I think there are a few people on here who are local to me because they advised me when I was moving house, but I've never met them unless inadvertently.
I think it's great that some people here have met good real life friends from here... I just haven't been that lucky so far.

I saw that u know chnunk [V]?


and thanks pen i would love to meet you when your home next ?

Hey, that's not true, I'm the same (unless I'm one of the loons and don't know it!).

Oh and I didn't put it on the previous post but I'm in South Oxfordshire so if there's ever a meet round here I would come along (or maybe I should organise one?)
