Everything seems to be out there already. Why a club?
At first glance, it's true — today there are plenty of ways to "meet people": from social media to open meetups, dating apps to Telegram chats. Choose your format — and go.
But why do so many still feel lonely in a crowd? Why do people say:
"I'm constantly with people, yet it feels like no one truly knows me"?
📱 Social Media: connection without contact
They offer the illusion of closeness.
You know what your old classmate is doing, you can like your colleague's photo from Lisbon, but... talk heart-to-heart? Be part of a shared space where you're understood without words? That's hard.
Social media is a stream. A club is a space.
Warm, slow, where you're seen — not scrolled.
❤️ Tinder and dating apps: all about format, not about depth
Most dating apps are built on the logic of selection. It's not about communication, not about friendship, not about shared presence — it's about evaluation. A quick yes or no, a swipe left or right.
What do we lose? Vulnerability, spontaneity, the chance to just be ourselves.
justbeopen is not about "finding someone" — it's about truly meeting someone.
🧑💻 Coworking spaces and meetups: many people, little context
Coworkings are great for not sitting home alone. But more often, it's just next to each other, not with each other. You can drink the same coffee, work in the same room, and still never say a word.
Meetups are the opposite: lots of words, little depth. Presentations, business cards, small talk — then home.
But what if you just want real conversation, without "what do you do"?
A club doesn't offer random encounters — it offers intentional gatherings. With people who choose a space that's safe, interesting, and real.
🔐 Why closed?
Because open formats eventually get filled by "everyone."
Closed doesn't mean elitist — it means caring. About the quality of the space.
So we don't have to re-explain what it means to "not interrupt," why we avoid politics on the first meetup, and why we start in silence.
We protect the warmth — and that's why we don't let everyone in.
💬 In summary
If you've had enough of random encounters — and you're craving something real.
If you care not about status, but about maturity.
If you believe that "your people" are out there — just not where you've been looking yet...
Then justbeopen might be for you.
