Break radio silence
Relationships on Female First
You may not have spoken to each other in a while, especially when everyone is busy with work and family commitments. But good friends are only ever a phone call away. Be the Monica of the group and suggest meeting up - after all it only takes one person to get the gang back together.
Get a date in the diary
Finding a date to meet up can be a nightmare of conflicting social calendars. No one wants to badger people to settle on a date. To avoid this you can defer to Doodle - an app designed to take the stress out of organising. Just set up an event, add all your possible dates and send out the invitation. Your friends then simply select the times they're available and Doodle will work out what time works best.
Find the perfect location
Your friends may have gradually spread out over time, but don't let this be a barrier to getting together. Bear in mind your friends might have a big distance to travel, so make it as painless as possible and pick a place that's convenient for all of you. Be creative with your meet up spot - you could always suggest returning to your university town or the local coffee shop that is particularly nostalgic for your group of friends.
Make it a day to remember
If you haven't seen your friends in a while, make sure it's memorable. Plan a special day out with your gang in mind, whether that's a spa day or something more adventurous - you know what you like. Also, it never hurts to have a look on Groupon to see if there are any special deals available.
Most importantly, have fun
Ultimately this meet up all about you and your friends reconnecting. No matter where you are, you're guaranteed to have fun when the group is all back together.
