Friendship: How to Find Other Like-Minded Couples to Hang Out With

Do you remember when you were a kid, and you wouldn’t think anything of going up to a kid at the park and saying hi, even if you’d never seen them before? You’d chatter and follow one another around, even though neither of you had even asked the other’s name, and when it was time to go you’d ask your mum for two more minutes so you could go and say goodbye to your ‘friend.’
Unfortunately, as we get older, making new friends doesn’t come quite so easily and depending on where we’re at in our life, we can sometimes end up having less in common with old friends as time goes by. For example, if you have a new baby or a family, it’s pretty safe to say you’ll probably have less time for socialising than your single friends and have very different things to talk about. As priorities change to reflect your no longer child-free lifestyle, it’s natural to find that you just don’t have time for the friends that aren’t on the same page as you.

The fact of the matter is that friendships tend to flourish between people who are in similar circumstances, and parenting is one of those times when you need support from others who understand the challenges involved in raising little humans! When you have a family and limited time for yourself, some of the most rewarding friendships are those with other couples, as they allow you to maintain friendships and still spend quality time with your partner. Which of course all sounds fantastic in theory, but how on earth do you meet other like-minded couples with similar interests?

get twogether is Australia’s first social destination dedicated solely to helping couples find like-minded couple friends. Its aim is to simplify your social life by taking all the hassle out of finding new friends, so you can make the most of your free time.

How Does get twogether Work?

get twogether is an easy to use, intuitive platform that allows couples to seek out meaningful social relationships with other couples. You can search based on age, interests, location, parental status and more to find friends that share your priorities and outlooks. Or if that’s too daunting, this platform will do the hard work for you with their intuitive recommendations!

With the ability to get to know other couples better before you meet, you and your partner will be able to skip the awkward introductions and start chatting like old mates right away!

Goodbye non-existent social life – hello new circle of friends!

get twogether is unique in that, unlike other websites that allow you to meet other couples by joining and attending their events at a fixed time and place, they’ve put the power back in your hands. Life is busy, especially when you have children, so trying to make it to pre-organised events isn’t always manageable. Their platform lets you organise get togethers with the people you want, at the location of your choice, and at a time that suits you.

If you do feel like you need to ease yourself into the idea of online socialising though, they have public get togethers organised where you can meet a bunch of couples like you, all at once (which is perfect for couples new to an area, or the perfect way to start a parents group). If this appeals to you make sure you like their Facebook page for all the event updates!

How to Join

get twogether is now available in beta, so they’re offering every user who registers now an extended FREE trial! This means that you’ll be able to use the site at no cost until they launch later this year.
