I'm a little nervous about the Uno group

Meet up is tomorrow. At the local library. I have the feeling I'm about to embark on a new life journey with this if I decide to take the reins. Right now there are a couple of possibilities ... we just use the library game board night... we start a group and rotate locations... or I spearhead the group via a community center. I can also just direct some folks to join another existing game board / uno group.

One thing I've learned, people really want an additional fun game in their lives

That's such a cool thing to organize. I love that you're thinking about the different ways to grow it. You're right, people do want more fun in their lives. I'm curious, what's the wildest 'house rule' you'd implement if you were the one in charge? 🤔

@Iknowyourouttheresomewhere it's such a delicate matter. Right now I'm wondering how to help an older wealthy man realize he's not the hot young man he used to be. And so he shouldn't be acting on his impulse to woo every woman. Sorry. Yes. You're right. I do think it's a good idea/to address "no unwanted personal attention" ... but how to know that it's unwanted (for someone that doesn't see it?) I've been thinking of using the following phrase... which I know to be true...To men: when a woman is interested in a man, she's obvious about it. She'll come after you and you'll have to be the one to say no. Otherwise, don't pursue her.

@Mindful I agree it’s a delicate matter, but the key isn’t ‘how he should feel, it’s boundaries. The safest house rule for groups is: don’t approach women with personal/romantic intentions in a way that turns the space awkward. If you don’t have a clear mutual, ongoing connection, keep it friendly. And if someone seems uncomfortable, distracted, gives short answers, or avoids the conversation, treat that as ‘unwanted’ and again “stop no follow-ups.”
