I've met one guy on here from the DFW area, and we'd like to find more! So, don't hesitate if you're from the Texas-DFW area and would like to meet.

Sure, I tried getting together a meetup a while ago, but people lost interest.

I'm in Carrollton and would be ok with going to Addison or Dallas to grab a drink or whatever.

For people who haven't, join the Dallas SAS Group.

 

[melissa75]

I might be okay with Addison/Dallas, too, if enough people went...maybe... .

 

[honeybee]

Would anyone be interested in meeting up? Come on people we can make this happen.

I don't know anyone in the area and I would really like to make a friend.

 

[wjc75225]

Ok, awesome. I've been hanging out with another guy I met from SAS, so he may be up for this, too! He's in Plano and goes to school at SMU. I'm in Dallas/University Park right now. Meeting people/friends who understand SA is great! I have a few friends who don't have SA, so I'm not a total loner. I currently live with my parents, though.
So, what's everyone's story? I'm 23 and graduated from SMU this past May with a degree in electrical engineering and mathematics. I tried doing some engineering research, but I have decided I like the business side of things better. I'm going to go back to SMU in the Spring to get a BBA in finance. I wish I could get an MBA right now, but they want corporate experience =/.
As far as SA goes, I was diagnosed with OCD at a young age, so I don't doubt it's linked in some way. The OCD is much better, so I'm mainly focused on defeating SA. I'm on a couple of medicines, which have been helping pretty well. I also go to a CBT therapist, which is going ok. Anyways, that's the short version about me.

Oh, and I'm currently single and looking! haha.

I just sent a PM to everyone on the Dallas SAS group, so hopefully we'll get some more replies. If not, I think we have a big enough group here already that we can start planning? What days work best for people?

I can do most weekdays. This weekend I'll be in Houston. Next weekend is Halloween weekend, so I don't know if that'll be a good time to meet.

 

[wjc75225]

My schedule is pretty open as I don't have a job right now. Most any day and time will work for me. Sometimes I have family events with little to no notice, but it shouldn't be a problem.

 

[ShadowArtist]

I might be down for this. What sort of activity?

 

[serolf]

I might be down for this. What sort of activity?

Just having some drinks and some food.

How about the Londoner in Addison? Other suggestions are welcome.

I'll throw out a tentative date. Next Wednesday (Oct 27) at 7pm? How does that work for most people? Edit: Nevermind, Sunday, October 31 at 3pm works better for most people.

btw, it may be a good idea to subscribe to this thread.

Oh... it's gotta be a weekend for me to make it. It's quite a drive for me.

Sunday the 31st at 3pm?

 

[wjc75225]

I'm up for anything .. weekend or weekday, but it's probably better to pick a day that works for most people! I'm meeting a guy I've hung out with from SAS for coffee today, and I'll ask him if he wants to join us! We can probably carpool. Hopefully most people can make it. I've never been to this restaurant, but I'm assuming it's good!

It seems like he and I will be the younger ones. I'm 23 and he's 21.

 

[melissa75]

Weekends are easier for me, and the 31st would work for me. The Londoner's a cool place and just down the road from me, actually. Haven't eaten there, though.

ShadowArtist -Where are you coming from? Is Addison too far?

I'm 35, by the way.

 

[honeybee]

Sunday the 31st works for me.

 

[serolf]

Yeah. I'm still working on convincing my friend haha. He's 21 and doesn't know if it'll be awkward being the youngest there. I'll let you know as soon as I find out if he's up for it!

 

[ShadowArtist]

I'm in. Gotta drive from Beaumont, so I'll probably arrive in the area sometime late Saturday and find a place to crash. That way I can sleep late and not have to drive the round trip all on Sunday.

EDIT: PlanetarySauce do you need a ride?

 

[CAL2010]

Hey guys!! I was told about this meetup and wanted to know if you had room for 1 more? I'd be coming in from the E. Texas area. I'll message each of you. Thanks
