New Year’s Night Networking

| January 1, 2012 9:28 am

 

Whatever the weather, Duck Soup will be celebrating being single in the New Year on Sunday 1 January at 623 In The City from 7.30pm.

If you had a fabulous New Year’s Eve party, hopefully you’ll recover during new year’s day and top it off with some quiet conversations with new friends at Duck Soup.

If you didn’t choose to see in the New Year with friends, how about stepping out in your glad rags on the first of January and celebrate the New Year with us!

Relationships, as we all know, can be very trying at times. And when the number of trying times becomes “always,” mounting resentment, unhappiness and low self-esteem result in a break-up… or should. This is the time when being unattached is a good thing. Being single can be a status worth celebrating.

See you on Sunday and Happy New Year!

Networking TONIGHT

| December 4, 2011 12:23 am

Use dates as an opportunity to broaden your social circle

Sunday 4 December (from 7.30pm at 623 In The City) will be the last Duck Soup networking night for the year!  I hope you’ve got some fun summer plans happening with your other single friends…. if not, come along tonight prepared to hand out your phone number or email address to ensure you’re invited to some events, bbqs and parties..

Dating is one of the best friend finders there is. I read recently some advice from an elder statesman who said that we should all try and make one new friend every five years. What excellent advice. When we are very young we collect friends like sweets. As we get older we lose some along the way kind of like natural wastage. We fall out and we fall in, we change and adapt and we end up with a core group of our best friends, usually quite small but reliable and close. I think its fair to say that most of us will never have more than a handful of extremely close friends as we grow older simply because its not possible to have very close relationships with so many people. Best friends require maintenance.
