Valentine’s Day is one of those holidays you either love or hate. If you are in the throes of passion or are spending your days and nights with the one you adore, it is a day to exchange sweets and flowers and soft loving whispers in each other’s ears. On the other hand, if you are alone, possibly recently dumped, sitting in your empty bedroom eating pints of Haagen Das while watching “The Bachelor,” the last thing you want to hear is “Happy Valentine’s Day! So how do you get from the latter to the former? How do you find someone to share your life with? Or even share a lunch with!?
And how exactly do you go about finding that special someone who has the qualities and physical attributes to gravitate toward? Bars, health clubs, Celebrity Apprentice?
There is an answer to all of these questions. The New Jersey Young Professionals is an organization about getting out and making friends! There are thousands of members and a whopping 20-30 Official Events per month. Members meet at restaurants, bars, in coffee houses, at comedy clubs, and even outdoors. They get together to taste wine, honor the happy hour, network, play board games, hike, bike, and so much more. Here is a rundown of some of the featured events in the mushy month of February:
