topic Re: Virtual Pen Pals in Introduce Yourself

Virtual Pen Pals

OldMarriedMan — Wed, 15 May 2024 15:50:04 GMT

I was looking for an online community to meet people, make friends and nurture platonic friendships. As an AARP member, I found a friendly and welcoming online community that I would like to introduce to others. What better way to do this than by promoting regular human connection through virtual pen pal friendships? You are invited to join this discussion so we can work together to find innovative ways to wipe out loneliness.

Hi OldMarriedMan - I too am an oldmarried man. I would be happy to chat(virtually) with you. I live in SoCal and also believe that "Life is Good"!

Are you originally from the Chicago area? I originated in MD, but left there at age 18.

Regards,

wilful

Hi @Jasawa,

Thanks for your response. I have some questions about this site. Do you prefer a discussion here or via private message?

I would love to be a part of an ongoing discussion or Private Messages...I don't think it should have those under the age to join AARP in the discussions and that is just my opinion...I am cautious as I joined a pen pal group once, everyone was so nice, until a person I had been having nice discussions with was removed, acted as a man, too young for me but we had great conversations, and it was a woman, she got caught...
