I'm from a farm in Wisconsin. My favorite ice cream is mint chocolate chip. I am single. I don't have kids. I am 45. I am unemployed. I got out of rehab for alcohol addiction. I take medications that mess with my head. I am lonely. I live alone. I don't have much of a social life.
I love ice cream. Chocolate is my favorite. I love my wife and kids. I have 3 children. I work as a plumber.
I'm considering signing up for a club to try and make some friends. That sounds like a good idea. It can be so hard to make friends as an adult. It doesn't help that I grew up away from so many people. You add in not working and then alienating people with my addictions and it can be a recipe for perpetual loneliness.  But I am feeling good and confident that this is where I start a new chapter! What kind of club are you thinking of joining? My wife is in a cooking club and she always has fun with it. It's an over 40 singles club, but they said it's not about dating; it's about connecting.  The idea of a cooking club sounds like a lot of fun.  Have you noticed a change in your meals since she started? She's been making a lot more different kinds of food! There's a Korean woman and an Indian couple who have shared some of their recipes, and I love trying them out when my wife makes one. That sounds so amazing.  I haven't had a chance to sample many other cuisines, but there is a Korean takeout that is pretty good.  I'd love to try some of what your wife has been making! They host cookouts once a month where everyone in the club brings a dish, and families and friends are invited. You should come along to the next one, maybe you'll meet someone you like! At the very least, you'll get some good food. That sounds really good!  I won't be as nervous since you and your family will be there.  Should I get anything to take? You don't need to, but I'm sure they wouldn't mind having some extra drinks around if you wanted to bring a couple bottles of soda. That sounds wonderful  Thanks so much for inviting me!  Who knows, maybe I will find a new club? I'm sure you'll meet someone who shares some of your interests. It will be nice to have you around. I always feel like my wife has so many more friends than I do, it's nice to have one of my own come with me!
