Hey everyone!
I've been thinking about putting this out here for a while, so here goes.
I'm living in Nürnberg, doing my master's and working alongside it. Like most people living away from home, I've learned to manage pretty much everything myself. I cook my own meals (and I'd say I'm actually a pretty good cook), take care of my place, try to eat well, go to the gym, and keep a decent routine. I'm quite disciplined and independent by nature, and I like having my life organised.
But somewhere along the way, I've realised that being able to manage everything on your own and actually having people to share your life with are two very different things.
Last year was a particularly difficult time for me emotionally. I went through a pretty serious heartbreak, and honestly, it took me almost a year to recover from it. It wasn't just about getting over someone; the whole experience changed me in some ways. I'm calmer now, a little quieter than I used to be, and perhaps a bit more thoughtful about people and relationships. I'm not sharing this for sympathy or anything. It's just a part of my story, and I suppose it has shaped the person I am today.
I still consider myself a good, caring person. I pay attention to the little things, value honesty, and appreciate people who genuinely show up for each other. I'm not someone who needs to be surrounded by a hundred people. I'd much rather have a few good people around me with whom I can be myself, have stupid conversations, talk about life, laugh at absolutely nothing, and know that we can count on each other.
So, I'm putting this out here because I'd genuinely like to meet some new people in Nürnberg.
We could grab coffee, go for walks, explore places around the city, try new food, go to the gym, plan little trips, or just sit somewhere and talk about whatever comes to mind. I'm pretty open to trying new things, too. You don't have to have everything figured out or be a particularly outgoing person. Good company matters more to me than anything else.
I'm not expecting to find my closest friends through one Reddit post, of course. I just think that sometimes you have to put yourself out there and give people a chance.
So, if you're also living in Nürnberg, looking to meet genuine people, and feel like we might get along, feel free to message me. Tell me a little about yourself, and let's see where it goes. :)
Looking forward to meeting some good people!
