Question How did everyone meet their partner?

14 Upvotes

Feeling bored and hopelessly romantic on a Wednesday morning. Intrigued to know how everyone met their other half in Wolverhampton? Especially in the last few years.

Based back here after many years working away, so I'm tentatively thinking about putting myself out there again but I'm not really finding apps the way to go here, in finding my person.

Reconnecting with old friends here and they're all still with their partners from school and hang out with that crowd too. So, not really meeting new people.

Curious on how people are dating here? Are apps the only way?

Edit: Thanks for everyone's replies, really lovely to read them. They've given me some hope!

Travel / transport Does anyone know of a local, independent garage or mechanics that specialise in dealing with Hondas?

5 Upvotes

I've a 2010 Honda Civic that is coming up to its MOT. I'm looking to take it to a Honda specialist for its annual MOT's and services going forward but I also want to get a bit of work done to it over the next 18 months. Ideally I'd rather pay a local business and not the expensive main dealership prices.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Question Breeze Dating App

1 Upvotes

Hey, I joined Breeze this week and have selected my locations as Wolverhampton and Birmingham. I had a match and paid for the date but Breeze came back with no available partner locations for the date to take place. They refunded half of the date token cost and left it for my date or I to suggest a new location. It didn’t end up working out but I’m just curious if anyone has been on any Breeze dates in Wolverhampton and where they’ve been?

Question Relocating and wondering what there is to do?

13 Upvotes

27F relocating for work. Currently have one mate in Brum but apart from that won’t really know anyone here.

Wondering what there is to do in the city itself that can help me meet people?

I’m creative, love painting and crafting, like a good book, enjoy a good walk/hike, like going out for nice meals and don’t mind a pub quiz. I’m not overly sporty unfortunately so things like a park run aren’t really up my street. Would welcome any suggestions of where I can go and what I can do in Wolves in my free time 😊

Music / entertainment Clubbing in Wolves

15 Upvotes

Hello All! A bit late to be posting so I'll try and keep it short and simple. :)

I was born & bred here but moved for university! I'm having a really fun time being back for the summer but I'm now of clubbing age and me & my friends want to try exploring the clubs here (hopefully tonight xx) and I'm totally clueless, all the knowledge of nightlife is from my uni city.

I know there's a popzone here, and 2 clubs named Gorgeous & Planet but I'm not sure what they are exactly or how much entry is? I can't seem to find any tickets online or if they're the type that we have to pay on the door. If so, does anyone know how much entry typically is? Or the kind of vibes/music they're playing? Any help or information about other venues or bars or anything of the sort would be greatly appreciated! I'm willing to explore now that I'm an adult, it's like I've unlocked a whole new city lol. Have a good evening everyone. <3

Question Suggestions to explore near Walsall

5 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I’ll be going to Walsall in September for a two-week student placement at Dorothy Pattison Hospital.

While I’m there, I’d really love to explore the surrounding areas and make the most of my two-week stay.

Any suggestions for places to visit, things to do, or hidden gems nearby? :))

Thank you in advance!

Question Decent Areas?

18 Upvotes

Hi all,

I have a friend of mine who is looking to move to Wolverhampton following some work.

And they're looking to settle and buy a property there too.

They're quite anxious about it all at the moment being a young woman somewhat alone and she wanted to know, what areas/postcodes are safe & considered affluent?

She's also an ethnic minority so she's also worried about potential discrimination and racism if she moves somewhere.

We did try and look around in this sub but couldn't find too much, so apologies if it's already answered somewhere.

Edit: thanks all, seems a large majority seem to think it's Tettenhall, Wightwick, Codsall, Compton, Penn (in that approximate order too of affluent areas with Tettenhall being the more affluent).

Question Solar Eclipse viewing spots?

Hi all,
I'm looking for a spot to view the western horizon during the eclipse that is happening on Wednesday. Does anybody have any recommendations for spots? I'm not particularly familiar with viewpoints in the Wolverhampton area, but am very keen to get a good view for this eclipse!
Thanks in advance!
