Question

Are the commas correct should I add semi colons or a comma or remove a comma?
I always find friends in unusual places, for example, my friend and I met while teaching an aerobics class to senior citizens.

Answer 1

I believe this is correct. In the sentence: “I always find friends in unusual places, for example, my friend and I met while teaching an aerobics class to senior citizens.”

I would say that the sentence is correct the way it it because the phrase “for example” is not necessary, thus it is offset by commas.

Others ways I would write the sentence:

I always find friends in unusual places. For example, my friend and i met while teaching an aerobics class to senior citizens.



I hope that this helps clear things up for you:)
