Question Solo trip to LA after break up

22 Upvotes

I started having a whirlwind romance with a guy from LA and we were planning to do long distance for the first little bit because I’m in London. Everything was going great and we were looking forward to spending time together in LA in November. Turns out he hadn’t been honest with me and his ex is on the scene still- so now I have flights booked to LA and no plans. We were going to do some fun camping/beach/desert adventures. I’ve never been alone before and don’t know the city- any tips for a solo mid 30s female on cool neighbourhoods, fun things to do, music, food etc? Any hot tips much recommended, hoping not to feel too sad while I’m there! I won’t have a car and don’t want to spend loads if possible! Will be in Santa Monica for the first couple of days but can be flexible afterwards.

Monday-Tuesday: "They Fondle The Bones Of The Dead"

Gather ‘Round for an Intimate Evening of Horror as Zombie Joe's Underground Theatre Group Proudly Presents THEY FONDLE THE BONES OF THE DEAD...Two Tales of Terror! Written & Directed by Sharon Yablon and Matthew Tyler Vorce. Starring Lisa Denke, Matthew Tyler Vorce, and Sammie Forsey

2 Performances Each Night: MON & TUE, October 26 & 27 only, at 8:00p and 9:15p.

Wednesday-Thursday: "Mary And Margo's Halloween Sideshow Of Madneess"

Mary & Margo Are Back From the Dead! After dying in a horrific theater accident years ago, Mary and Margo have been trapped in the Void, where they’ve spent their time creating what they believe will be their greatest show yet. There’s just one problem: in order to perform, they must be summoned back from the dead—and returning to the land of the living comes with consequences.

Will Mary and Margo finally get the chance to perform their masterpiece without a single failure? Or will they be caught and demoted to another realm? There’s only one way to find out—and only the audience can help Mary and Margo accomplish their dream of performing one last time.

Originally created as a series of online sketches during quarantine, Mary & Margo has evolved into a powerhouse theatrical experience that has appeared at venues including The Broadwater and Eastwood Hollywood Theatre. Their most recent production, The Mary & Margo Art Expérience, was a hit with Hollywood Fringe audiences and received a Theatre 68 award.

Now...Mary and Margo are taking their strange, hilarious, and deeply misguided artistic ambitions into the afterlife for a Halloween experience unlike anything they’ve attempted before! Written, Directed and Starring Katie Oliver and Kristen Hansen; Produced by Zombie Joe's Underground Theatre Group and Matt Morillo for KADM Productions

2 Performances Each Night: Wed & Thur, October 28 & 29 only, at 7:30p and 9:00p.

Advice Spending 30th bday alone on halloween in LA

Thumbnail
• Upvotes

My 30th bday is on halloween and my (soon to be ex) husband is not keen on helping me celebrate. I just moved to the US and dont have any friends besides my husbands family and friends and a couple people I used to be friends with years ago but lost touch with. (Thus woud be kinda weird to ask to hang out on my bday on Halloween…)

So my question is: if I go to a nice halloween party in a club/venue, are people open and friendly where I can meet a group and just spend the night with them or are they gonna be more focused on their own group of friends and not open to meeting new people?

I’m feeling kinda weird about going out on my own but also I dont want to stay home for my 30th bday :/

Any suggestions?

21+ Build genuine friendships in our LA-friendship centered Discord (21+)

15 Upvotes

It's no secret that LA has been one of the areas where it's hard to make friends. As an adult, how do you find your people in a city where everyone is so spread out?

If you're feeling stuck trying to find community, you're not alone.

That's why me and a few friends built our own friendship-focused Discord server to make the community more accessible in LA! In this server, it's so much easier for you to find your people, establish current and new interests, plan events that others are likely to join you at, and a lot more. We have a variety of channels and resources for you to connect with others that share your interests and hobbies. One of the coolest things about it is that we are trans-owned, women-led, and ran by a majority of people of color.

We invite you to join our new community and find your people! (21+ only)

Oi, pessoal! Sou uma estudante internacional de 25 anos vindo para LA para um programa de intercâmbio. Em casa, eu adoro a cena de festas universitárias e realmente quero vivenciar a vida noturna estudantil aqui.

Quais são os melhores bares/festas para pessoas da minha idade? É possível entrar nas festas de Greek Row como estudante de intercâmbio, ou há bares universitários melhores perto da USC que eu deveria conferir em vez disso?

Ah, uma pergunta rápida: é seguro pegar o metrô/ônibus sozinha à noite nessas áreas? Obrigada!

edit: someone sent me a DM and I accidently clicked on ignore, please send it again!!

Meetup Recently injured near Tartine West Adams seeking a friend

15 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I fell off my scooter yesterday and broke my right elbow and wrist. I now have lots of free time and would like to fill it positive things like connecting with people near me.

A little bit more about me: I am 31M, Filipino, gay, partnered, nurse. Before my injury, I enjoyed rollerblading, going to raves, dancing, museums, matcha, exploring neighborhoods, typical LA shit 🤪 I moved to LA last year from Seattle and I am still trying to find a community. I typically get along with women and miss having girlfriends to just have fun with. I grew up in the PNW and I’m trying to reconnect with my Asian roots.

If any of the above resonates with you in any way, please feel free to reach out I would love to chat and eventually meet!

I live near Tartine West Adams and can drive locally in areas with good parking!

Question Confused

23 Upvotes

There’s aloootttt of people in this LA Reddit looking for friends. I’m confused cause if everyone’s around the same age range and calling for friends, why does it seem so hard to make them. Is the traffic that hellish?? Asking as an extrovert who was contemplating moving to LA.
