Bored? I think not now.
Ah Chelsea.....thanks for posting what I was thinking. I always hear of people having close friends in TV and wonder "will that be me"? I'm can be pretty outgoing so I tend to make friends easily, but my husband is pretty quiet and doesn't do the social scene so much, at least where we live. I think once we move, he will change and be a bit more outgoing. The people here aren't that friendly and don't reach out much. The folks in TV seem to reach out to others to cultivate friendships. I keep telling my husband that I'll be off with my girl friends and he'll be home tinkering with his stuff. He says "what ever makes you happy!" Bless his heart. I must say I have a wonderful husband.....
We aren't golfers (yet) but love to be out and about. My husband likes cars, especially older vets and always seems to find something around the house to fiddle with. We love to walk together and usually walk miles a day. We like to stop to the cafe's to have a drink and snacks and shop. Since we'll have a pool, I'm hoping I can have my friends over for a regular swim and chat time around my pool and warm each others hearts. I've learned over the years that other people's thoughts and feeling are so important so I want to try and listen to what they have to say and put my 2 cents in! We are counting down the days until we move and will be there on the 12th to get the ball rolling. Thank you for your thoughts. |

BORED???? Are you joking?
You won't "get it" until you are actually living here, but I seriously doubt you'll find yourself "bored" and itching to get a job! I wish I could find a way to have an additional 10 or so hours each day just so I'd have enough time to try all the new stuff I want to do, but can't seem to find the time for!
My hubby did end up going back to work (retired firefighter w/a pension), but it's only to feed our (as Gracie would say) "feathering our nest" addiction! LOL! |

I am extremely bored living in The Villages. The activities do not come to you. You must push yourself out of the house. People are rude and obnoxious and not friendly at all.

Yes the activities do not come to you. You do have to be a person to step out and get involved. I've met so many wonderful people in TV. I've met people on this forum as well as in TV and I don't live there yet and I haven't attended any activities. So maybe you can be a little more specific. What exactly has happened that has brought you to this statement? Are you in a new or older neighborhood? Have you attended the socials?

I hope you're right CaptJohn. When you get to know some of the personalities.... You know who is joking and who isn't. I just don't know about this poster. I hope they come on and explain.

I haven't met anyone yet who thinks the way you do. (That people are rude and obnoxious and not friendly) Please tell us who and how you met these obnoxious folks. I will go and beat them up. You are kiddin' right?

Bored after settling in?
We made a LSV in Dec and my wife got contact info for a few couples we met during that time... She has already touched base with one couple and if we are lucky enough to get a quick trip back in the next month or so we hope to make time to meet up with one of the couples. One has to get out of the chair and out the door to get involved and we are looking forward to the opportunity to do just that once we make TV's are next home and lets hope its before summers end. We hope to get our house on the market here in Alabama early March.
