Hi All, This group was started by an awesome Aussie lady named Bec Humphrey.  Unfortunately, Bec felt the call of the Kangaroo and returned to Down Under last summer.  I thought it was a fabsy-dabsy group and wanted to keep it going, so, with Bec's blessing, I became the organizer.  Below you will find Bec's excellent description of the group's ethos.  N.B. I am not Australian, but I do have a relative who was born in New Zealand if that helps. I decided to create this group because I'm an Auss …

Back in the day when I was studying graph theory, my favourite mathematical problem was the friendship theorem. The goal was to prove that at a party of six people there are either three mutual acquaintances or three mutual strangers. Toronto is a big city to many but somehow no matter where I go, I bump into acquaintances, and along the way I make new friends. Despite my passion for mathematical proofs, I strongly believe that a party of six is the perfect party size. Let's meet strangers and a …

Okay... here we go. My partner Jason and I have been together for over 10 years. We are in our late 30's and consider ourselves to be fun, outgoing and overall we lead a very happy life. Upon returning to the city about 4 years ago after living abroad, we are happy to be home, but find it very hard to meet other gay couples who are like us - madly committed to each other, not looking for sex and just looking for good quality couple friends who share our values. We wanted to start this page and …

Many of us aspire to be creative in one form or another but we carry within us hindrances to either doing our work or releasing it out into the world. At times we may believe we're not good enough, that our work lacks meaning, isn't perfected, or we don't have enough talent and imagination to acheive what we desire. It may be that we fear criticism, failure and rejection, or perhaps resistant to change and success. Ultimately, the thoughts we think and the beliefs we hold, are what's holding us …

Perhaps sushi at the Tsukiji Fish Market in Tokyo, …

Accounting for roughly only 1-4% of the population, INTJs (Introversion, Intuition, Judging, Thinking) are one of the rarest of the 16 Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) personality types. Often referred to as "Masterminds," us INTJs are a peculiar bunch—independent, analytical, rational, creative, pragmatic and logical. Although we possess many enviable qualities, INTJs are also known for being less sociable than most other types. Perhaps being surrounded by like-minded folk will encourage us t …
