A habit engine determines habits of the first user and the second user to identify when each user is available for the social interactions. A context engine determines user context for a group of activities performed by the first user and the second user. A suggestion module identifies a time when the first user and the second user are available for the social interactions associated with a first activity having a matching context. The suggestion module provides a first suggestion that the first user join the second user in the first activity in a social network.
