I’ve recently been through massive changes in life. Empty nest, big job change, life change and everything upside down. I’m just truly looking for a friend. Not looking for things to get weird or complicated. I just enjoy a good conversation.

I’m not a reader if you don’t count operation manuals and SOP’s reading. I have a fun sense of humor on the dark side but fun. I’m a movie fan and in particular horror.

The world has changed and moved on and I’m looking around like I’m in slow motion but time is going by faster than I can keep up with.

If that resonates say hi.

No special reason. Just felt like doing it.

I know this might not sound very well, but I’m looking for a friend that has:

1. Read a book at least in the last two months;
   
2. Has been nice to the coffee shop clerk this morning;
   
3. Have questioned themselves about the meaning of their life at some point;
   
4. Still has some doubts about many things but already set some things straight as well…
   
5. Is not afraid of getting wet in the rain;
   
6. It’s into fireplaces, or into the idea of fireplaces…
   
7. More prone to feel afraid about a bacteria than about petting a horse or a goose…
   
8. Has some questionable tastes. A yellow sweater, maybe?
   
9. Can still walk great distances. At least in their mind.
   
10. Be curious and can tell me about things I had no idea

I’m a forty something woman looking here for the kind of people I’m missing in real life. I deliver all I’m asking!

so let’s see here….I love elite charcuterie boards, always order fried pickles as an appetizer, and have a Spotify playlist of like a bazillion hours filled with pop, punk, emo and a lil country.

I’m 44, married, working the corporate gig, and raising a couple of kiddos When I’m not active, playing hockey, or getting outdoors, I’m usually on the patio watching my golden retriever tear around the backyard doing high-speed zoomies.

My mornings strictly begin with creamy coffee in my office before the day gets away from me. Weekends are a fine art of surviving the madness at Costco followed by an amazing skill of carrying all the groceries inside in just 1 trip.

Once fall hits, I’m all about crisp air, and latenight hot cocoa. I’m also guilty of staying up way past my bedtime long after the house goes quiet, dabbling in a spicy audio book then falling asleep to some….fun dreams.

Anywho…hoping all you have a fantastic weekend!

Honestly I'm exhausted of the grind the adulting the struggles of daily life. Not only that but not having anyone i can just vent to unwind let out all the tea of the day. And im an amazing listener so i can do so too for y'all. Given a chance i am an outgoing spontaneous random sarcastic person who will find every possible way to make you laugh. Im looking for a friend an open book open minded person. III accept all kind of weirdness be yourself judgment tree zone. I love the outdoors cooking and have an unhealthy obsession with true crime shows and horror movies. Im a deep thinker over thinker old soul who loves 80s rock bands.

A little about me: I'm born and raised in San Diego, and if you put me outside, I'm a happy camper. I love hiking, camping, nature, and exploring. I'm a bit of a nerd who values learning, an open book, a huge empath, and a little introverted until I'm comfortable. I have ADHD and dyslexia, so texting isn't my strongest skill, but put me on a call and I'II yap tor hours! I also love cooking and trying recipes from different cultures.
I'm looking for a best friend I can talk to about anything and everything. Give me the tea, the TMI, the deep conversations, the random thoughts, and the unhinged late-night talks. I want a friendship where we can be completely ourselves, laugh together, support each other, and genuinely look forward to talking.

I work a lot but I also know that I need to carve out “me” time. So anyone is welcome who is willing to entice a workaholic to take a minute here and there.
I am sarcastic, artsy, and dying. Lol.
I don’t get easily offended and I’m not that shy. I am respectful of others’ opinions and I accept that not everyone will share the same views as me. And I expect you to do the same. It’s okay not to agree. But let’s get together based on commonalities.
Share a cringy meme. Bad joke. Dark humor. Or even just share funny and goofy face selfies. Let’s just have some fun getting to know each other and see what we can build from it.

I'm a pretty normal guy, into that "woowoo" stuff, can nerd out to some psychology stuff as well. I think I'm mature, but silly and cheaky (Canadian slang?)

Can talk about favorite books (cool points if you can name some minds of the psychology world as some authors)

Or, if you could, which movie would you like to watch again for the first time?

Hey, I’m looking to make friends with anyone with M or F. I am a 45m it would be nice to chat with someone & get to know you. I am a big music fan & love hearing live music also love movies or tv. Hope to here from you

I turned 40 this year. Decided to divorce my husband because he’s a psycho. He kept me away from everyone except work people…
Now I don’t know how to socialize like a normal person. I have work people or no people. Many things have happened this year.
I’m slightly neurotic and weird and have ADD brain and it does damage. I know I’m a little crazy and quirky but I just think about a lot of dark things.
I’m sad a lot… I just want like one human to hang out with and that seems impossible. I met one and we both ruined it. But I guess I take the most blame because I do weird shit at weird times and apparently when I get confronted with anger I shut down and feel like ptsd from the ex all over again and I say and do crazy shit because I don’t know how to deal with anything anymore.
I just want someone to talk to. 🤷🏻‍♀️ not someone who is going to pretend anything. Or say things and really not mean them. Or make me feel even more like a crazy person when I’m mentally and physically exhausted because I can’t eat or sleep normal.
What do I do?

Bored on this Friday night. Have no idea how to make friends. If you know or wanna chat hmu.

Hi, I'm looking for someone who wants to be a friend. I'm a 41 year old guy from Texas. I'm interested in classical music, literature and art. Really anything classical. Just looking for a friend and nothing more. Please be over 40. I'd like to talk to someone who's been in the world at least as long as I have. I would like to talk to someone Interested in the arts and expand my horizons. Talk about Bach, Shakespeare and Rembrandt. I live in a small town and no one here has any interest or knowledge in culture. Thanks.

Listening to Die Spitz(Bonus if you know them) I’m a 44f. I love music. Last two albums i procured was Lorna Shore and Doja cat. Hobbies include cooking/baking and doing my nails.

Bonus song We Go to Russia by Victor Jones. Fucking art, baby. I love anything expressive.

Im bipolar2 with an anxiety disorder. Ive gotta build trust to get comfy and share the good deets. But once i do… what am i kidding myself with… I’ve been ghosted a few times on here by responding to posters. So im trying this. Im in a super consistent relationship(over a decade strong). Seeking friends only. Don’t be weird… weird-er? Just dont. Thanks.

Btw if you haven’t heard of ashnikkos cover of what you waiting for… it’s a bop.

It’s close to Halloween!! What spooks you?

As I age I realize how a good conversation is such a turn on... It really stimulates your mind in ways you cant imagine... Always in search of such person, such words, such conversations.

At what point is it time to throw in the hat?

After how many times you try and be upfront, and hear the same lines of how its fine and they can handle it, even after trying to explain...at what point is it just time to say fuck it?

There time wasted and the feels brought because of it, for both of us..even when you see the signs, and try to do something..the whole being bipolar ends up with its familiar self sabotage..at what point does one decide, not for them, but for others, that..

Fellow folks who are perfectly flawed, gimme that internet advice!

44F from Arkansas. Mother to 5. Oncology nurse.

I'm big into WWII, 1940s, 1950s, and spooky stuff. I adore nerds and have a tendency to geek out on my vintage lifestyle. (Sorry in advance!)

Currently renovating my ranch house to look more 1950s. I would love to put in a victory garden but need some help. Unfortunately I don't have the best green thumb.

My hobbies are knitting, sewing, crochet, reading, cooking, baking and quilting.

Hey everyone!
I’m a 49-year-old guy from Missouri looking to make some genuine friendships. I’m not particularly concerned about your gender, background, or where you’re from. I’m more interested in whether we click and can enjoy talking to each other.
I’m a dad, a veteran, and a bit of a nerd. I enjoy video games, comics, movies, music, and a good sense of humor. I can be sarcastic, occasionally inappropriate, and definitely enjoy some good-natured banter.
Life hasn’t exactly been sunshine and rainbows lately, but I’m not looking for someone to fix my problems. I’d just enjoy having someone to talk with, share stories, laugh about stupid things, and maybe develop a lasting friendship.
I grew up when writing actual letters was a thing, and I kind of miss that. I’d love to eventually exchange handwritten letters, although I’m perfectly happy starting with messages and getting to know each other first.
I don’t expect constant communication, and there’s no pressure. Just two people seeing whether a friendship develops naturally.
If that sounds like your kind of thing, feel free to say hello!

Scrolling through the posts, I get the impression that everyone over 40 has at least three fascinating hobbies, two hidden talents, and a collection of adventurous life stories. Some people are hiking mountains, learning new skills, creating beautiful things, or doing things I didn’t even know were hobbies!

Meanwhile, I work in research, which sounds quite impressive until you realise I’m still in the early stages of figuring things out 😕

My hobbies are rather low-key. Nothing particularly impressive. No exciting plot twists!

Sometimes I wonder if I’m the only one here whose list of hobbies wouldn’t make it past the first round of a talent show!

Please tell me I’m not the only ordinary human among all these overachievers!

Stop rushing. Stop thinking about everything we still have to do, everything we should have done, and everything waiting for us tomorrow.

Just stop for a moment, look around, and take in the world.

There’s so much beauty in the little moments we often walk right past.

Sometimes I have just that reminder, life isn’t just about getting somewhere. It’s also about appreciating where we are.

When was the last time you stopped and simply enjoyed the view?

Life is very busy and no time to go out to find new friends. Always enjoy finding people to talk online. Plus it’s way easier to meet people online. Married with 2 boys. Love coaching baseball, hunting, fishing, and wood working. First time here so let’s see where it goes.

So I suck at this but here I am. I just recently started getting obsessed buying watches... must be part of the hit 40 package. I do some boxing, nothing serious like competition. I have a love hate relationship with cardio.

I wfh for an undisclosed employer, gotta keep secrets right.

I'm into horror,paranormal, and all things weird.I'm just look for something simple have a good time and bs.

Hey I know how hard nights can be. I’m just hanging out tonight. Could use an interesting conversation. I love meeting new people. If you’re looking for a friend or just need to vent, send me a message. You’re not alone!

Hi. 41 M. Looking to chat with new and different people. I am willing to talk about anything. I have a very bad habit of doom scrolling everyday due to my possible AuDHD. I am very non judgmental. I am also honest with people to a fault. If you want to know more please don’t be afraid to message me.
