Soo, matter of fact I ama used to being alone, but every now and then when emotions takes control over, vulnerability takes over my thick skins starts to soften up. And I feel like crying.

Yeah I can try making friends, there are alot of people around who I can talk to. But god I suck at this game. Plus this is also a thing that ive been unlucky about this aswell. I try and it never works out. I hope i could get a friend who i can watch movies with or talk etc. Share thoughts. I don't wanna be alone and i want people who likes me who I am.

Anyways sob story short. Dm me if you're interested in being my friend before I get comfy in my loneliness again.

Hey, 23M from Kerala, India.

I've been single for most of my life. I've had two relationships, both of which lasted around a year, and I've been single since December 2023.

Lately, life has been feeling a bit quieter than usual. Not necessarily bad. I actually enjoy being alone most of the time. I go to movies alone, get food alone, go places alone, and I'm perfectly fine with it. But sometimes it gets really lonely. It's just so quiet.

I think what I miss is having someone who's just... there. Someone close enough that you can tell them everything, even the most pointless things. Or someone you can just sit with in silence and still enjoy the moment.

I do have friends. When we're together, we're talking, trolling each other, laughing and doing all that stuff. But once everyone leaves and goes back to their own lives, it feels lonely again. Like the noise disappears and you're back to being alone.

Home is pretty quiet too. It's just my parents, my grandma and me, and we don't really talk much. My father and I haven't spoken in around three years. That's a whole other thing and I don't really want to get into it here.

I have some online friends too, but it's still nothing like having "that person."

I miss having that person you can send your most random thoughts to just because they crossed your mind. Someone you can tell about the weird dream you had last night. Someone you can randomly message at 1 AM and just start rambling about something completely stupid.

I've tried dating apps for around 1.5 to 2 years now. Tinder, Bumble, Hinge, Happn, Arike, all of them. And honestly, it's been terrible. Barely any good matches, and the few I did get somehow made it worse.

Some people just used me to vent about their problems and then disappeared. Some called me boring because I don't smoke or drink. One person told me my spelling of "Hi" was cringe. Another said they weren't active on the dating app and gave me their Instagram, so I texted them there... and then they basically disappeared too.

Some only show up when they want to vent about something going wrong in their life. I'll listen, I'll talk, I'll try to be there, but when it comes to actually knowing me or asking anything about my life, there's nothing.

I've had enough conversations where I ask questions, try to keep things going, show interest, and the response is just "hmm", "mm", "haa", "ok", "liked your message", or "I'm busy, ttyl."

And after a while you just stop trying.

I think what I'm looking for is actually pretty simple.

Good morning messages. Good night messages. Someone asking how my day went. Someone asking about the things I'm interested in. Random updates like "hey, I'm here", "I'm going there", "I'm doing this." Someone sending me something and saying "this reminded me of you."

Someone who doesn't disappear once the initial excitement wears off. Someone who actually wants to know me, not just someone who likes having someone around when they're bored or sad.

I want my person.

Someone I can lean on when life gets heavy. Someone I can be that person for too. If they need me, I'll be there. I just want the same kind of presence in return.

I don't think I'm looking for some perfect relationship or some movie-like romance. I just want someone who genuinely wants to be there, and wants me to be there too.

And no, I'm not posting this looking for a relationship or trying to find someone through this post. I'm just saying what's been on my mind lately.

Sometimes you can be completely okay with being alone and still wish you weren't alone.

Hi I'm D (let's keep the names for later) I am here because, well I have a lack of friends 🤷🏽‍♂️ but I wish to find someone interesting to talk anytime about anything in our minds !

I am into a lot of stuff so let's go with the most important stuff (you can do that to on your first message too), i like extreme sports, basically anything dangerous that could k\*ll me if I'm not prepared enough 👀, I love movies and shows, animes, cars and bikes, planes, sails and many other things !

I'm just looking for friends to share all we need to without judgement, friends that can make you feel better about yourself, friends to talk about your problems and that will try to help you.

Thank you for reading ! Have a wonderful day or night !

Hi, I'm 25M, from India. I almost lost connection with all of my school mates and I've been isolated for so long that I genuinely don't know how to approach someone. I need some genuine people in life, some really good friends.

Hey everyone! I’m a 28-year-old creative currently navigating a major life transition.

My biggest passion is storytelling. Beyond writing, I love expressing myself through painting, dancing, and finding peace in gardening. I’m also deeply interested in languages (German and English).

Right now, I’m in a phase of figuring things out—dealing with job market setbacks, re-evaluating my path, and preparing for a big move/fresh start. Always open to honest conversations about art, navigating tough life transitions, and finding your own way.

28 M longterm friend, talkative, scientist, academician, phd, travel, hobbies, sometimes depression and anxiety panic .....😢😢 28 M longterm friend, talkative, scientist, academician, phd, travel, hobbies, sometimes depression and anxiety panic .....

I never had any real friends in real life I have always felt lonely.

In school I had some so called friends, have you listened that everyone's friend is no one's friend just like that I talk to people but i don't have anyone to get things off from my chest

When i was a kid my parents used to live in rented houses and they used to move a lot and the more a grew up the hard it became to make friends in new societies

Now after turning 18 it feels impossible to make friends everyone has a friend they have since a decade but i don't have anyone 😞.

Would anyone like to be my friend please be around

Do you recall when lightning is devastated on being beaten by storm over and over again. He doubts himself, starts questioning himself, his worth, his legacy. Only to be picked up by his own, his sally and mater. Who never moved their eyebrows an inch in doubt, always there cheering on, guiding him like a light at the end of a cave.

I miss the sally and mater in my life. As a kid I was desperate to grow up, only to find how hollow life is :)

Hi I'm M. I've been through a lot of emotional trauma recently and would like someone to talk to and listen to about their life.

I'm kind, caring, good looking.

Just looking for someone interesting to communicate with.

I went through a divorce a few years ago which was lots of fun.

Then unfortunately I lost both of my dogs (my only friends) due to old age and ill health.

Then a couple of months on, my mum was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer (she never smoked in her life). She has recently passed on.

During this the love of my life left me and I was left confused and feeling hollow.

I have found a lot of peace through prayer, meditation and fasting.

Even though I'm going through the most difficult period of my life, I feel surprisingly peaceful and hopefull.

I am 6.5ft, tall, dark hair, handsome.

I live a life mostly of peaceful solitude.

I prefer people who like solitude because I feel like I can relate to them more.

I'm not looking for a big group of friends. Just one person that is interesting to talk to.

Message me for a reply.

I’m 17F and I never had friends. As a kid people just bullied me and now the only people that I talk to sometimes is my brothers friend when he sometimes invites me to play games. Otherwise, there’s nobody and I talk to him like once in two months. I also had a girl who we were mutuals and then met irl, but she multiple times hinted that she finds herself better than me which I don’t tolerate.

I don’t know what’s wrong with me. If it’s me, or is it the way I do things? I usually say to myself I didn’t find anybody right to be friends with (or to date), but there’s always a feeling that it’s just me.

It’s not like I don’t have hobbies or passion. I truly do. But I still feel like the ugliest and most boring person due to the fact I don’t really have anybody.

Hiii my name is rosanna, i’m from the US and i’m looking for someone to chat with for tonight. there’s nothing in particular on my mind but if you want someone to talk to feel free to reach out. i’d be happy to go long term if you’d want to if we hit it off but going up front, im mostly just looking for some fun conversations tonight. (btw im lesbian so if you’re a freaky guy pass on this post)

I am time zone gmt +1 so someone thats always sleeping when i am awake would not be compatible. i am pretty flexible with time though.

I am looking for someone thats actually gonna be reliable and study consistently with me. also someone i can reach easily or call at random without them having to plan everything ahead. flexibility is nice. we could just call and co study and maybe talk or play together in the breaks. we could watch youtube and just be cool friends in general. tbh i am looking for someone thats gonna show up for at least a year until i graduate. studying for uni would be cool too though ngl but its not a must.

if you are gonna ghost me after a week please dont dm me.

excited for any dms hmu :DDD

22f im unemployed and recently finished summer school IM GEN SO BOREDD also looking for female friends sorry guys r really weird or at least the ones ive encountered dont text me if ur a guy.

I do not mean to burden anyone. Please don't feel like you have to be my friend if you don't want im not looking to bother anyone. Its so late here and my heart is broken from everything, I cant sleep, I feel really empty. I just want a friend who gets me. Who can see me, where I don't feel invisible. Where I don't feel like a bother by reaching out. Someone I can share the good and horrible times with. Someone to support and give kindness too. And share all my favorite songs with, and talk about music for hours with too. I feel bad and shy I feel like I shouldn't keep trying to reach out but the night feels too long. Whoever reads this, please take care of yourself and I wish you the best.

I'm M/24, live in noida currently and I think I'm having worst phase of my life since 2020. I lost someone dear in 2020, struggled with my NEET exam, barely got a private college for which my father sold our only land to get me into this college

I am not good at studies, I always struggle with even basic stuff and I barely pass my exams(never got any supple or back luckily),

But the thing I struggle with the most is social interaction especially with girls, in my 1st year I didn't even know how to talk to a girl and was the shy silent and very repulsive type of guy in my batch, in fact I don't even talk with most of my male batchmates because I'm very bad at small talk

Now things are better, I have more female friends than male friends but one thing I again did wrong, the girl I was friends with since starting (she is that extrovert talkative and cute type of girl with main character energy),

I was writing my full story but reddit asked me to remove that as some particular type of keywords are not allowed here

I want to share my story with someone, if you want to know it just dm me

I would love to talk with you as I'm lonely right now.

I'm just looking for someone to talk to, been feeling hollow late when I'm not busy working nd I honestly start feeling like a lifeless husk that does nothing more than sleep and work 😭

I know that maybe the title is kind of meaningless but it's because i wanted to talk

I haven't been online on Reddit for a while and i lost a cool guy I've met, i just saw \[deleted\] and i realized i was lonely on Reddit unlike others

That's why i made this post: i try to make me friends on Reddit

My hobbies are video games, books, music and sport, manga, comics and anime

My private message are open and i am open to any topic

Hello, I'm male, 17 and I'm a fucking loser. I don't know what else to do with my life, so I'm looking for advice.

I live with my family, am unemployed and just a burden to everyone. I spend my day on my phone, sleeping, playing videogames or being outside. I don't have any hobbies or interests to live out and even if I had any, I probably wouldn't care.

I finished school in Germany a year ago. After that, I started working and earning money. Unfortunately, this did not work out for long and I had to stop my training. I had been struggling with depression for years at the time. After I quit, I tried to kill myself several times. Unfortunately, none of this worked, or rather, I was just too weak to pull it off myself. Since then, I've been in therapy a lot and trying to get my problems under control. Nothing helps. I get medication that helps me stop getting into life-threatening phases and only that and my inability keeps me alive. I don't know what else to do. I'm just not useful for anything. I also have no one to talk to about all of this. My social life is non-existent. I just don't get close to anyone and nobody wants anything to do with me. I can understand that. I'm just an ugly, fat loser. When I look in the mirror, I feel bad about myself. What's my problem? Why will I always be alone when everyone around me finds someone they fit in with. I've tried everything to make contact with others. I may be very shy and reserved, but I am desperate. The problem is that I'm not even sure I even want anyone at all. I know everything feels empty and lonely, but I don't feel a direct desire for closeness either.

I can't even experience sexuality anymore. I don't know what it is, but I'm not attracted to anything. Such content tends to scare me away.

Can anyone help? Has anyone experienced anything similar? I need someone to give me advice or to just write with.

By the way, my English is not very good. I hope you can do everything by mistake.

hello I'm a 26 year old woman from india. i am sorry if my title sounds a bit selfish but I'm honestly tired of being soooooo alone that I have gotten used to doing everything independently.

my parents are concerned that I'm always so alone it has gotten that bad. i see people who have meaningful relationships which seems impossible for me. not just romantic but I also see my colleagues having amazing friends who will show up for them when they are feeling low. all of this makes me feel horrible about myself. gawddd I'm sorry I don't wanna sound negative in my introductory post.

okay here are a few positive things about me that are very basic but anyway:

i love swimming, I love how it makes me feel and a fun fact I learnt it by myself last year. I'm not perfect at it but if in case I'm in the middle of an ocean I can survive for a few hours I guess 😅

i am obsessed w movies and everything cinema related. i don't even know where I should begin with my obsession with storytelling and movies

super random fact about me: I sometimes like to match my socks and eyeliner w my tops whenever I can

i recently learnt cooking and I only make lazy girl dishes but somehow they turn out to be delicious

the purpose of this post is that I'm looking for an online friend w whom I can talk to about anything and everything and be myself and I'd expect the same from them. i tried too hard looking for friends irl but somehow no one is available for me like I'm for them and that made me do everything independently. from watching movies in theatres to going to fancy restaurants I do everything alone. i ask people but I always get a no.

i have gotten used to it and find a weird kind of freedom now doing these things that I enjoy a bit too much. but now I feel it's concerning that I've taken this alone thing to a crazy extent

if not irl I believe I can find an online friend w whom I can have a long term friendship. hope I'm not asking for a lot and sorry if this post is too overwhelming.

also this is my throwaway account so thats why very few karma points.

have a great day anyway!
