So I noticed today that several of you either know each other IRL or have recently met each other IRL. I feel like I'm the only creepy internet chick who doesn't know anyone!! So who knows who? Who hangs out with other bumpies IRL?
You don't understand the appeal of Benedict Cumberbatch / think he's fug / don't know who he is? WATCH SHERLOCK. Until you do, your negative opinion of him will not be taken seriously.
I have never met anyone from this board since I only recently came out of lurkedom. I have done several gtg's for other TB/TN boards in the past though.

@ShadyPines920 - you are right - most of the GTG have been NJ adjacent but not in NJ - awhile back (not sure if it was on Parenting or on a prior board) - there was a NY GTG and I believe some from NJ attended - it was at the Central Park Zoo. There was also a Philly GTG which sort of covered southern NJ.
Sometimes I feel like a know a few of the Oct 11 ladies on here since I'm FB friends with them, but sadly I haven't met any of them (except the Boston ones who don't really play on Parenting.)

I met a couple bumpies at a gtg a few years ago, but they are not active here anymore...I wouldn't say I know them. There was one regular from back when we were on the month boards who I knew in middle school. we realized after we had been posting for a while that we used to ride the bus together.
I've never met anyone either. I think it would freak DH out a bit. I don't live very close to any major cities, so that option is kind of out anyway. I think the closest bumpie that I know of is 3hrs away.
Back in June I spent an amazing weekend with Sookie, OM, Mack, ashleysyn, MrsNikki, Wordsmith, VeronicaCorningstone, NYMama, MrsEll, Write2Nicole, and Dragonblood. Sookie and I shared a bed. It was magical.
I also met a handful of others at the ATL GTG last fall (Hilarity, TPIS, Seahorse, I can't remember who else).
Wellll I THINK I know you. Texts still don't mean you're not some old bald man, whacking it in your parents' basement :-p Until faces are seen in person, trust no one!!
It's nice, but akward at the same time. I feel strange sitting there in the car while someone else does it. And I never know if I should tip, so I do because I don't want to be the jerk that doesn't.

I'm friends with Sophia...
I'm IG friends with a little over a dozen women from my BMB and 4 of them live within a couple hours from me, but no IRL meetups yet.

I've only met one bumpie IRL, but she is no longer active.

I believe Eddy was planning the one for Philly. But never took place. I'm much closer to Philly (I work in Philly) than NY.
