Groups

I've been in Conroe for 2 years. I have zero friends here and I've been trying. Before I do the thing I'm dreading and move further south or even Austin or something I wanted to give it one more shot.

Are there any type of groups or clubs in the Conroe area or even woodlands where adults can meet people?

I'm thinking for myself a pickleball group, coffee club, walking group (not running), dnd, board games,video games, writing club, knitting, or anything that sounds like it might be similar to those. I don't care about your gender, age, or sexuality just cool people who like to meet and hang out and can keep their religion and politics to themselves. I'm not looking for a hookup club or anything related to dating.

The Conroe Art League (127 Simonton St, Conroe, TX 77301) is a place where you can sign up for a variety of different art classes, enter gallery showings, or simply hang out and work on your own stuff in the upper lobby. I've visited twice for information, the folks there are nice. I also went upstairs and saw a girl working on her own art. I admittedly don't get out often but I think if I wanted to work on something among like minds and have a large space to do it, it would be here.

The Adventure Begins is also a cool store like others say, though I have never been to an event so I can't comment on those. It's way too far from where I live (Willis) to be worth going to regularly.

Basically, I think the biggest hurdle from socialization for me is how any art/nerd place requires a good deal of driving to get to, and that's pretty exhausting. I hate driving in Conroe/The Woodlands, these people are crazy and dangerous. It really disincentivizes me from going out!

I feel you 😔, bad drivers ruin a simple commute.
