If you are a gay male 21 and older and live in Northen Cook, Lake or McHenry counties in Illinois or southern Kenosha county in Wisconsin, you may feel isolated from other gay men who live nearby, because you do not know how to get in touch with them.

This is primarily a gay male social group, but we are open to all positive attitude …

This group is for parents who put their kids first, but would also like to keep their sanity. While most "Meetups" in this group will be for kids, there will also be "Meetups" put together themed for the parents.

Hi ladies! I reside in the Lake County, IL. area, & have found that there are not many if any interesting groups on this site for those of us in the far north west suburbs. All the great groups of people appear to be located in Chicago! I myself did not wish to travel all the way to the Chicago land area on a weekly or monthly basis to meet new people, or to make a new friend, especially being that the individuals in the group that I had attended did not wish to do the same for me! NO bueno! Thu …

This group has merged with Gen X/Y Social between the cities - please join our group on that meetup site instead.  Thanks! I have found it difficult to meet young people in their 30s and 40s along the Illinois/Wisconsin border. It seems that most groups in this area are under 40 or over 50 and forgot about the awesome kids who grew up in the 80 and 90s listening to grunge and alternative. Whether single, divorced, newly separated, or in a relationship, we often don't have enough time to find pe …
