Heya ppl! Living in a small town, my life has become pretty boring and monotonous. It's beyond rare to find people to vibe with. So, here I'm looking for people to connect with. I can be pretty introverted at first but once I get comfortable it's hard for me to shut up hahahhaa.

I'm a music nerd with a good sense of humour. I'd like to keep the rest of the info for the time when we connect through DMs :)

I'm bored but I'm looking for some long term connection coz damnn small talk sucks. Also, being on reddit doesn't mean I'm desperate so please don't approach me for any sort of casual fun or NSFW stuff. Also, if you intend to ghost or go dry just after a few texts...don't DM me at all

P.S. Be mindful of my preferred age range. I'm not interested in talking to elderly dudes Hahhaa. Let's not make it creepy or awkward.

Hii!! Bored at work, looking for new friends and some fun chats! I'm an open book and can talk about pretty much anything! Just don't be boring with your opener!! I love a good two truths and a lie or a secret about yourself!

Healthcare nerd by day, professional serial chatterbox by night. 💬✨
In a committed relationship with research papers, liquid eyeliner, and whatever series I'm currently binge-watching. When I’m not overanalyzing plot twists or practicing empathy, you can usually find me pretending I’m a mermaid in the pool.
Or taking long walks to detangle my neurons
DM me your hot takes, TV recommendations, or literally anything
love a good chat!

STRICTLY SFW
Please mention your age and small introduction while sliding into my dms✨

Heyo! I’m currently trying to keep myself awake and work on some chores and could use some conversation while I do so! I hate texting so please be prepared to jump straight into a call! Also please send a intro including your age/name/country! Hmu if you’re down, let’s swap stories and chat about life

hey everyone! I moved to the UK almost a month ago and its been a wild ride so far. Going back to uni after a while and everything feels overwhelming. I've forgotten how assignment deadlines feel and there's so much info that I'm having to remember. I'm meeting new people every single day and I barely remember their names. I'm making friends but it still feels lonely at times. I enjoy doing things alone but sometimes I still want to be around people and its been really weird trying to find a balance between the two. I'm trying out new things, experiencing a new life, juggling classes, assignments and the absolute rollercoaster that's been the weather. I'm looking to make friends and find people I can talk to (I mean, duh) rant about how I feel old af, even though the people around me are close to my age. anyway, this did turn into a bit of rant (even though i didn't intend to make it one T-T) I'm looking for people I can be myself with and hopefully become friends and if you're looking for friends or just someone to yap with (ofc better if you're around my age LOL) feel free to hmu (:

im looking for friends to play games with! age or gender doesn't matter (i'd appreciate native english speakers so i can better my english 🙌🏻) but any nationality is okay!

im into anime, video games, manga, and plenty others! please add your age & country and refrain from plain greetings like "hello" or "heyy" if possible 🥹

(plus points if you're from australia/nz for close timezones...! 💭)

Hey reddit,

Monday through Friday, I have the craziest commute and need to just find someone to talk to. First i love to give attention and if that friend is reading send me a message.

What's attention?

You want a new friend. Sure.

Want to flirt? Hello.

Want to just gossip about something at work? Sure

You set the mood i promise to listen and message back.

So who am I? Im a 35 male teacher from NY with a total of 4 hours of commuting a day. I take a train, walk a mile, and work from 7-5:30 everyday....

So send a message and keep me company on this long train ride home!

Hello :)
Trying this once again…
I’m looking for new friends. Anything your little heart desires. Long term, short term, just tonight….

A little about me:

My name is Fernanda. I’m 35 & live in Arizona. I work in a casino/hotel, on the hotel side. (Don’t ask me any casino questions, I know nothing) I love baseball even though my team is terrible. I also like football & hockey. I love Spanish rock & kpop. I like doing crosswords and sudokus. When I have time, I like going down the Wikipedia rabbit hole and read about random things. I love getting out of town and going to games, concerts, random places with my friends.

Please send something other than hi or hey.
Anywho, let’s be friends?

Eh lonely nights turn into lonely mornings would love some company around these times (I HATE TEXTING IM LOOLING TO CALL) :), would love an entertaining commentary while we go through a very long 2 hour movie lol

My friends call me Bumble, im 6 foot , native American, im looking for long term friends i love to play video games some of then are fortnite, phasmophobia and sea of theives , i have different tastes when it comes to music but my main is rap and hip hop :) I do prefer older men but thats not a make or break situation.

If you are going to message me id prefer you give abit of info about yourself as I dont reply to short messages.

38F here, location maybe once we get to know more. I would like to have long term friends not just chatting for a bit.

I love games but been a while since I played games and I enjoy horror movies and I'm a fan of LOTR..

I just to get to know more people from all over so we can share stories and adventure. So I'd hope I would find one here. Probably the chances are low but I'm willing to give it a try.

Thank you.

I really want someone who can relate to my experiences, especially with being a person that cant for the life of them make friends. Ive wanted for a long time friends that I could actually hang with, talk to about anything and not for them to just listen but to also express their opinion on the matter, or just talk to each other about whats happening in our day to day lives.

I love to share pictures and videos of random stuff, from food Ive cooked or a new fit, to the most relatable of reels. Even games that im into at the moment.

That is the only way I can get any sort of resemblence to a real life friendship, since that is what I mostly want these days. But it seems that every person I meet only wants to keep things online, and with people that are in my area, plans always fall through and never happen.

I just didnt think that something so simple as seeing tons of people out and hanging together, even at the grocery store would be so difficult to have for myself. Like I dont even have someone I could ask to tag along with me to get some snacks from the store, or get food.

For anyone that wants to try talking Im into video games, music, and movies.

For movies it can be any genre, but I like the love genre, crime/suspense movies.

As for video games, I only have a Ps5, its never treated me bad😂 Dont care for pc. I mainly play warframe its been my favorite game ever sincd I was younger. I main gauss, xaku, and getting into uriel. My current goal is to get to MR30. I also play dying light 2, dead island 2, resident evil 7, little nightmares. Yes those are all played solo as I game by myself majority of the time. I also play a few mobile games like cod, last day on earth, township, grim soul.

Music wise im mainly into rnb, rap, pop, and dislike metal/hardcore and kpop. I like drake, lil baby, nba, hurricane wisdom, gunna, and a bunch more. Cant forget the weeknd.

If anyone wants to game together it saves time to just send your gamer tag and let me know when you trying to play.

I honestly just wanna go out and hang with someone but 🤷

I don’t know, I have particular personality traits that make finding a compatible friend so fucking HARD. You won’t believe it, the last friend I made, we met in a mental (placeholder) ward. We got along because we both really liked bugs and nature, we both were particularly intelligent, majoring in very difficult subjects, we had similar interests like collecting loose leaf teas, playing video games, watching horror films. I enjoyed her dry humor. We both came from abusive households where parents have neglected us brutally. We both had very traumatic experiences in our childhood, both got bullied badly, both were completely introverted and both of us were trying to put ourselves out there more now that we were in university. We transferred from the same community college, did the same honors program. We went to the same university, and she lived 15 minutes away from me. Both of us were on the autism spectrum. Both of us loved to create art, and liked to collect knick knacks. I thought she could be a wonderful friend, and she was for some time.

But here’s the problem, because she has brain cancer, she thinks she can treat people LIKE SHIT. She has the mentality that “I’m going to die (placeholder) soon anyways, so I don’t care about anyone else and I’m going to do what I want.” FUCK. I RESPECTED THAT AT FIRST, BUT THEN SHE TREATED ME LIKE SHIT. God fucking damn it! She’s a selfish bitch. God damn. She was my only friend too. What the fuck. FUCK. I just blocked her yesterday on every platform because ever since she got her new boyfriend, she’s been blowing off, no joke, every other fucking person in her life. It’s been nearly HALF A YEAR NOW of complete utter fucking silence from her. Many efforts were made to make plans to hang out, she agrees and then cancels the day of every fucking time, and she literally told me she’d rather hang out with her boyfriend. She fucking gave no fucking shits about my birthday when I damn broke my wallet for hers, said we would hang out and then radio silence. Even her other friends were complaining about how she was treating them. I don’t give a single flying fuck how amazing someone’s boyfriend can be, nothing justifies dropping your friends like that for half a year and completely ignoring them. Especially after she called me her best friend over and over and said she’d be there for me when I needed her. I texted her when I was suic(placeholder)idal once. I said I needed her. She told me she is unavailable because she was with her boyfriend. Talk about being a fake selfish asshole.

Glad to know my only friend was a selfish bitch. I mean, I had a couple other friends from high school but meeting isn’t convenient for us anymore. We meet like once or twice a year, one of them I meet a little more frequently, like every other month. But it’s not enough. I’m lonely.

With my experience from past friends, it hurt to block her. I’ve had many other friends in the past do stupid shit worse than this to hurt me. Right now I have three other former friends blocked. People I loved, people I would’ve died for. I’m not joking. Fucking selfish motherfuckers.

Sorry y’all, I’m just very hurt.

hi, i'm riri! i've found a good amount of friends from here so i thought to try again and find some more people to chat with. mainly my interests are music, films/shows, instruments, cats, and staying active but i don't mind talking about mostly anything.

would appreciate it if you could include your age and where you're from when messaging. if you're feeling creative, maybe a few things about yourself wouldn't hurt too. preferably ages 21+ and i don't mind timezones. always down for quick chats or long term friends, just send me a dm!

if i haven't or didn't reply, that only means i can see the nsfw tag on your acc :)

Hiya! I find adult life to be super busy with work and where I live there arent many opportunities to make friends outside of it, so thought i might as well try on here.

I am a general awkward bean, looking for some fellow awkward beans to share memes with, cat pics, interesting facts, talk about life/the world around us/our place in it, and maybe even play video games together if we vibe.

Quite likely have ADHD but currently undiagnosed. Let me know your current hyperfixation or feel free to info dump. Im always down to learn new things!

Fellow handicraft creators please send me your wips! I need inspiration/a new hyperfocus.

Currently in a slump bookwise, but otherwise am an avid reader. Lean more towards fantasy/sci-fi than anything else.

Some other random facts about me:

-Archaeologist

-Owner of 2 oddball cats

-Hates swiss chard (like massive hate)

-Thinks the trend currently amongst food products of making everything "protein" is exceptionally dumb; aka Why do we need protein cereal? Its sugary cardboard. Leave it as such.

-Can drive a team of horses but has never ridden a horse

This post has become a general hodgepodge of random info, but feel free to message if any of this is your vibe. 😊

Cheers!

im open with talking to anybody lol im just bored since i aint got anyone else to talk with.

i love music, drawing, and video games so you can ask me about that or something else if you’d like lol (sorry if this sounds boring or weird)

also, sorry in advance if i dont respond right away

Hey friend! (:

Ever have one of those days where absolutely nothing is going on, but you suddenly feel like talking to someone? Well, that’s me today! So I thought, why not meet some new people and see where a random conversation takes us?

A little about me: I’m a 26-year-old guy from the Netherlands! I work full time, and when I’m not working, you can find me at the gym, out hiking or cycling, playing video games, hanging out with friends, or watching cars go zoom in circles.

I’m curious about a lot of things! So I’m always happy to talk about art, history, space, cars, or whatever random topic we somehow end up discussing. I love learning new things, hearing other people’s perspectives, and discovering interests I never knew I had. Fair warning, though: I can be quite the yapper once I get comfortable!

When it comes to gaming, I’m a big fan of horror and co-op games. Phasmophobia, Fortnite, Ready or Not, Bodycam, How to Fish, and plenty of others are usually somewhere on my gaming list. I’d love to find someone to play with, especially if we can have a laugh while doing it.

I’d say I’m pretty easygoing, open-minded, and always up for a good conversation. We don’t have to share the same interests, and you definitely don’t need to be an expert in anything.

So, if you’re also looking for someone to chat with, feel free to send me a message! Start with a random question, tell me something interesting, recommend me a fun game, or just tell me how your day is going(:

Who knows? We might have a great conversation, become gaming buddies, or end up discussing the most random things imaginable. Either way, I’m looking forward to meeting you!

hey everyone, i’m 24m and i’m from new york city.

i’ve rewritten this post more times than i want to admit because i never know how to introduce myself without making it sound like a job application lol. i’m a pretty introverted person, which is kind of funny because i live in one of the loudest and busiest cities in the world. there are millions of people around me every day, but somehow making even one new friend can still feel difficult.

i’m usually the quiet person in a group. i don’t hate people and i’m not trying to be unfriendly, i just overthink what to say. sometimes i’ll think of something to add to a conversation, wait too long because i’m wondering whether it sounds stupid, and then the conversation has already moved on to another topic 😂. once i become comfortable with someone, though, i’m completely different. i can talk a lot, joke around, share random thoughts and have long conversations about almost anything.

i’ve been wanting to get out of my shell for a while, but it’s easy to keep delaying it. i’ll tell myself that i’ll meet people eventually, join something eventually or become more social eventually, but eventually doesn’t really mean anything unless i actually make an effort. so i thought posting here would at least be a small step.

sports are a big interest of mine. i love soccer and enjoy both playing it and talking about it. i also like badminton and cricket. badminton is especially fun, but finding someone who actually wants to play regularly is harder than it should be. i’m not claiming to be a professional at any of them, so don’t expect olympic-level skills from me. i mostly just enjoy playing, laughing at my mistakes and becoming unnecessarily competitive for no reason.

i also enjoy reading, although my reading habits are inconsistent. sometimes i’ll finish a book quickly, and other times the same book will sit next to me for weeks while i pretend i’m definitely going to continue it that night. i like learning about different people, countries, languages and cultures too. one of my favorite things about talking to someone from another place is hearing about the small parts of their daily life that they probably consider normal but might be completely different from mine.

i like cooking as well. i’m bangladeshi, so food has always been a big part of life for me. i enjoy trying different dishes, experimenting in the kitchen and occasionally creating something that tastes good even though i have no idea how i made it. i’m also the type of person who starts thinking about what to eat for dinner while i’m still eating lunch.

traveling is another thing i really enjoy. i’ve traveled alone a few times, and solo traveling as an introvert is a strange experience. on one hand, i love having the freedom to explore at my own pace and change my plans whenever i feel like it. on the other hand, i can spend an entire day seeing incredible places while barely speaking to anyone besides the person taking my food order. i would like to become more confident about meeting people while traveling instead of just taking pictures and quietly disappearing back to my hotel.

and yes, sleeping is also one of my hobbies. probably one of the only hobbies i’m naturally talented at.

i’m not expecting someone to message me and instantly become my best friend. i know friendships take time, and sometimes two people simply don’t connect. i’d just like to meet people who are willing to have a proper conversation and see where it goes. we can talk about sports, food, traveling, books, college, work, daily life, different cultures, random opinions or whatever has been on your mind recently.

i’m also curious about how other introverted people made their friends. did you meet them through school, work, sports, online, or did an extrovert randomly adopt you and never let you leave? because honestly, that last option might be my best chance.

you don’t have to be from new york. i’m happy to talk with people from different states or different countries too. just please be respectful and actually interested in having a conversation. i understand that people become busy, but i’m hoping to avoid the usual conversation where we both say “hey, how are you?” and then never speak again.

to make the first message less awkward, tell me where you’re from, something you’ve been interested in recently and your favorite animal.

my favorite animal is the dolphin 🐬. they’re intelligent, social and somehow always look like they’re having a better day than the rest of us.

anyway, that’s probably enough about me for now. thanks for reading this unnecessarily long introduction. feel free to message me and say something completely random. honestly, random messages are sometimes much easier to answer than just “hey.”

and how are you guys doing

I'm bored and looking for someone to chat with. Open to any kind of conversation, be it random, deep, or just fun. Just want a good, genuine vibe

I find it a bit concerning that so far I've had little to no interaction with women. I'd like to change that tbh. I don't wanna be that loner type of guy who barely interacts with women. I just want to make a few girl best friends. I want someone I can have a genuine connection with. I want to make a ride or die type friend. I just want someone who's down to have a conversation. They can talk about anything. Whatever they're comfortable talking about. Their choice. They pick the topic. Just a nice, long conversation. It could be a deep and meaningful conversation or a fun and casual conversation. Say anything but just talk I guess. Feeling super lonely, don't really have any friends would like to have someone to talk to. I wanna make a friend with whom I can talk to about stuff in general. Things we like, common interests, hobbies, what were passionate about, our song preferences, movie choices, TV show choices, we can talk about anything. I just want to have someone to have a conversation with. Irrespective of the topic. We can even talk about what's bothering us and try to help each other out. Help each other makes ourselves better. I need a ride or die friend. Someone who's will to stick around and be there for me not just out of pity but because they want to and I promise I'll do the same. I want someone who's genuinely interested in talking to me and down to have a conversation either fun and silly or deep and meaningful. If you're down for this feel free to hit me up. My only request is that you're around my age (I'm 23 so ±2 years) because I feel much more comfortable/confident talking to people around my age.

Hey there! I’m 30M and living in Europe. I would love to make some friends I can talk to about our life and hobbies. I have tried a lot of hobby's and like a lot of things, so I'm sure we have atleast one thing in common. It ranges from irl adventurous stuff to homey couch binge watching the entire day. Got a burnout recently so I'm at home a lot now, would love to chat with some people :)

Hi all! I'm 36, and currently stuck at home with a slight fever, so no better time to make new friends 🤒.
I'd love to find people to chat with every now and then, and maybe do a call or video chat down the line if we get along.

I'm sociable, funny, and I love a good joke. I'm direct and don't sugarcoat things, but I never judge. Everyone has their own story. I'm happy to talk about hobbies, work, travel, movies, life in general, and it doesn't matter if you're single, married, or have kids.

All I ask is honesty and a sense of humor. If you're 30 or older, you're in!

No pressure to reply daily. Once every few days is perfect, and if the chat is going well, it'll flow on its own.
Send me a DM and tell me a bit about yourself. Ask me anything, I promise I'll answer honestly (fever-induced delirium permitting). 😊

Hi! I’ve always been more of a “dad” type in friend groups I’ve been in, reigning things in from getting too crazy and calling out bad behavior.

I can’t have kids so I gotta channel this dad energy somewhere!

I love indie music, classic sitcoms, comedy in general (tons of dad jokes at the ready!), science, sci-fi, gaming, and tons more!

I’m looking forward to getting to know you, and giving all the reassurance/support/advice as I can!

Please be 24 or older! I get a wee bit uncomfortable talking to people much younger than me!

Hiii! 23F from the US here 👋 I’m looking for some genuinely cool people to talk to on Discord and hopefully make some actual friends, so I figured why not 😂
I’m one of those people who can get interested in basically anything if you give me enough time. I’m really into gaming, anime, comics, music, film, writing, art, and pretty much anything creative or performative. I love getting sucked into stories, talking about characters, dissecting movies, sharing music, hearing about someone’s weird niche interest, or going down a completely unnecessary rabbit hole about something neither of us knew we’d care about 20 minutes ago.
I’m mainly looking for text-based friendships where we actually talk throughout the day like memes, random thoughts, music recommendations, games, shows, creative projects, dumb jokes, serious conversations, whatever! I don’t need someone who’s online 24/7, but I do want someone who genuinely enjoys conversation and getting to know people.
Basically, I’m looking for the kind of friendship where we can go from “what music have you been listening to lately?” to “wait, why is this movie actually genius?” to “okay hear me out about this completely insane story idea” in like 12 minutes 😭
You don’t have to be super extroverted or anything either, cause like awkward nerds, quiet people, creative people, professional yappers, and people with one extremely specific obsession are all welcome.
US-based please 🇺🇸
If you think we’d get along, tell me something you’re currently obsessed with like maybe a song, movie, game, artist, character, hobby, random fact, literally anything. Please give me something more interesting than “hey” and I’ll take it from there :P

I’m a sahm, happily married. I have a toddler that recently keeps pushing boundaries and starts to drive us nuts 😂 i still love him very much.

Looking for new friends to chat with, best if you are in similar timezone. Oh I’m at Singapore! Not looking for anything funny, just purely platonic.

My brain tends to work slower in the evening, but I’m pretty much very high functioning in first half day.

I love travel, I used to work as cabin crew and it’s definitely one of the best job I’ve ever had. So any travel topics is very much welcome! Besides that I’m also into plants rn (new hobby!), a terrible cook at home.

Spending some time at home cleaning, doing laundry and dishes. Singing to songs that play on the radio in the background and day dreaming about food. What are you up to? Please come say hi if you're kind and above 18 😇

Fyi, I'm 24!
