I have been living here now since August in Lorton and working in woodbridge. Other than work , I am a teacher, I havent met anyone. I wonder if there any groups or organizations I might join. I feel quite lonely, especially on weekends

Have you checked out meetup.com? It has a pretty strong presence here. Type in your favorite interests and odds are you will find a group or two that shares them.

Don't the teachers ever hang out together? Or are they all boring middle-aged married folks (like me)?

I picture Sting and Gene Simmons, the guy from Stand and Deliver, the lovely Edna Krabappel...

They do in my observation, especially if they're under 30 and share a few other social interests.

Hi did you find anyone? I'm considering moving to NOVA close to DC where my son works. It's really important to me to make some friends there. If I move I will get in touch with you. have a nice day
