A Matryoshka doll or a nested/nesting doll is a Russian doll or toy which features a set of dolls in decreasing sizes nested within one another. I chose this name for the group because I believe everyone is complex and has many layers to their personality and discussion can be a tool to explore the many facets that exist in others, thus creating true intimacy and camaraderie. I feel that is missing today. The Nested Doll is a group for those who really enjoy great conversation and deep and hone …

I would like to start a playgroup for moms on the westside with preschool-age children (about 2-5 years old). I want to find a consistent morning during the week (not weekend) for a weekly meet-up, with the possibility of doing other outings/meet-ups on other days as things evolve. Going to parks, the beach, museums, and Mommy and Me classes are all things we could do. My son is almost three and we live in Westchester, so I'm looking for moms here or nearby in Playa Del Rey, Mar Vista, Culver Ci …

Hello, and welcome! This group is intended for working parents of toddlers and babies (ages 0-4), who may feel a bit stuck on the social side, and who want to create lasting friendships with other parents, and age-appropriate peers for their children.  Many active groups for this area cater to stay at home parents, and many of their meet ups and events don't often fit the busy schedule of working parents that don't have time during the weekdays to participate.  The goal of this group is to find …

I don't believe the East coast has a monopoly on intellectuals. I mean what smart person wouldn't want to live in this climate? But it can be difficult to find the smart, well-educated, cultured people here. So, if you think you fit that description and are interested in meeting other brainy people for friendship, dating, or networking, please join us. Suggest a meetup-arts, cultural events, live music, hike, book discussions, politics, etc.

For those of us that are into the more subdued, intellectual side of life and just happen to be queer. Take note that this group will focus more on the book-reading, museum-going, tabletop-gaming, or just generally quiet getting-to-know-you aspect of things... and is likely to be the antithesis of the popper-sniffing, club-going, casual-encounter side of the rainbow. Nerds, geeks and dorks alike are all welcome!

This group (new!) was created for single black women and Asian men, in their 20s to late 40s, to get together. I've noticed that although we don't see this interracial combination quite too often, there are certainly many black women and Asian men interested in getting to know one another romantically for simple dating, possible long-term relationships or even good friendships. Additionally, I had to create a group like this that catered to those in the LA area. Within 100 miles of LA, I saw no …
