flowmom,

Have you checked out meetup.com in your city? That might help you meet some new single women who you have something in common with to go out on some of your new free nights.

I definitely agree with rr22 on this: I'm in two meetup groups: Hiking and Swing Dancing. Check it out! Do it.
And I definitely agree with you on this one (with a slight gender-change of course)

I definitely don't want to date, but I'd love to have a "guy friend" to go out with.

A tough balance to strike, to articulate with someone. I do think such non-date going-out/spending time situations will ultimately evolve from some Meetup acquaintances. Another good reason to check meetup out.
