What is Real BFFs?

Real BFFs, or The Annapolis Area Girlfriends Network, is the leading social community for women of all ages in Anne Arundel County and beyond.  

Founded in 2021, the group was formed with one idea in mind: to make it easier for women to build real friendships in adulthood.  

What started as a tiny Facebook group has grown into a thriving online community and app with over 3,800 local women who regularly connect through events, conversations, and shared experiences.

Today, Real BFFs hosts over 250 events each year, from casual meetups to curated experiences, creating consistent opportunities for women to show up, connect, and support one another.  At its core, Real BFFs is about fostering belonging - and building a community where both friendships and local businesses can thrive.  

We're proud to create a space where connection comes first - and where local businesses can be part of that story.
