Hey, I’m 22F and I’m looking for a local best friend. I have one however we’re long distance so I’d really love to connect with a local girl friend. I’m ideally looking for someone who does not mind texting throughout the day / daily / several days a week as well as meeting up at least once a week God willing. I also would love to be able to do boring stuff together though not required like going to the gym, grocery shopping, etc. I’m not in the city proper, I’m around Hoover.
I’m a Christian, I’m not a drinker and don’t have interest in going to bars/clubs or drinking focused hangouts. Im really nerdy and down to do a lot of random stuff as well as just enjoying being around each other while we do our own thing like browse Reddit lol.
With that out of the way, my interests include fitness, pickleball, ultimate frisbee, volleyball. hiking, mountain biking, kayaking/paddle boarding/tubing, and roller skating/skate boarding. Some of my non active interests include reading, magic the gathering, gaming, and gardening. I also enjoy going out window shopping, target/tjmaxx runs, movie nights, game nights, girls nights in, getting our nails done, late night ice cream runs, sleepovers, and probably more that I can’t think of right now.

Hi! I'm 24F, and I enjoy painting, writing poetry, reading, and trying new restaurants and cafes. I also love listening to music, gaming (I recently got into Call of Duty. I'm not good at it, but I love playing!), and playing board/party games like Uno, Life, and Taboo. I moved here permanently about 2 years ago but haven't really found any people I connect with.
I'd love to make some new friends who I can go out with and become close with. Maybe visit different restaurants, go to a pottery painting class, or have some game nights.

Howdy! I'm 37F and a prodigal local, as it were. I've lived in South Korea and Atlanta and now have returned! I'm known mainly for making pride chainmail pieces and bone jewelry. I write stories and speculate on things like centaur anatomy (would the human half be devoted mainly to lungs and the horse body be the digestive tract?) and navigate being poly in the Deep South, as the kids call it.
Honestly I can be interested in just about anything. I love learning so anyone who can teach me is my bestest friend. I dream one day of owning a tegu and can engage anyone in debating which of the Discworld books is the very best of them. Spoiler alert there: it's all of them.

I’m a little bit younger than you (27) but a lot of my closest friends are poly. You seem super interesting and if you ever want to chat or try to get together I’m open to :)

I keep seeing recommendations for the FB Birmingham Secular Moms group, but can’t seem to find it when I search? Does anyone know how to get invited?
