Talk of The Villages Florida - If you don't know how to post, please read this now

Hi--

I am a very on again/off again snowbird. I'm an 81year old male, in good shape and with a wide variety of interests. I plan to start spending more time here in The Villages, but my wife loves her home up north and is not eager to join me here except for a few months in the spring of the year. Therefore my question: How does a married man with too much time on his hands meet new friends here in The Villages?

I am outgoing and enjoy several clubs here, but it seems harder to meet people here than it was when I worked or when I was in college. I can't very well choose a stranger during a club meeting and ask for a play date.

I am looking at suggestions on meeting new friends here. They can be male or female, but no sexual activity will be expected or welcome.

I am not a "single" so single clubs where people are looking for a "relationship" are out for me.
