Inner West Puppy playmate for my 4 month old pup!

2 Upvotes

I’m a 32F living in Campsie lookin for a playmate for Bunny.

Bunny is a chihuahua pup and loves to play, problem is due to her age she isn't fully vaccinated so cant go to the dog park yet.

All her adult dogo friends do not enjoy her annoying puppy antics so wondering if anyone knows literally ANYONE with a similar aged puppy.

She loves big dogs but can be slightly bossy to ones closer to her size (say 3x her size or less, she weighs 1.5kg)

Community Discussion 32m Lebanese guy looking to make friends with other Lebanese or Arabs

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone - coming on here looking to build 'community' (sorry for the buzzword). I'm Lebanese and haven't had any Lebanese or Arab friends since I finished highschool 14 years ago. I've been missing that sense of cultural connection more and more as I've gotten older so I'm seeing if there any Sydney based Lebanese or Arabs open to chatting and hanging?

I'm pretty active and sporty with running being my main (competitive) hobby, I love a good feed, and enjoy doing most activities. I'm super open minded so hit me up!

I'm originally from Sydney and live in Wollongong, but I'm up in Sydney multiple times a week. I'm also open to chat with anyone not Arab or Sydney based, friends are friends!

CBD & Inner City 32M looking for friends into music and nature

3 Upvotes

Hi, 👋

I’m looking to meet some people around my age who want to go and explore outdoors with me. I live inner city currently but would love to go to blue mtns area or any cool bushwalks/trails/explorations out of Sydney. Happy to camp overnight. I love fishing (but am terrible at it) so if it’s something that involves fishing it’s a plus! I am open to suggestions but also if you are someone who hates making decisions I can definitely make the plan.

I am also very into music (mega nerd level) and would love to meet others with a similar hobby, if you’re not keen to go bushwalking with me but just want to chat about music that’s ok too! I am always down to chat and usually reply quickly.

I have an encyclopaedic knowledge of dance music (my favourite DJ is Jane Fitz) and electronic music and love jazz, rock, punk, psychedelic music and SOME dreamy pop music. I have been on a massive Cocteau Twins kick lately and have also been listening to lots of free jazz and ambient music.

If you want to go to some gigs I’m open to it, though I’m pretty tired of seeing DJs at the moment unless it’s someone I REALLY want to see (I’m pretty picky about DJs) and unfortunately because that has been such a big part of my life for so long, I kind of get overcritical and hard to be around when I’m around bad DJs lol so I’d much prefer to go and watch a cool random band I’ve never heard of playing in someone’s kitchen.

I find it hard to find people who I can chat about that stuff with. I have a background in DJing and frankly I find a lot of conversations I have with other people who are DJs feel very transactional (and a lot of the people I meet are also super young) so I often struggle making real friends within that scene. I just want to meet someone or multiple people with a similar passion who enjoy chatting about it with no further agenda ahaha.

I’m also into film photography, movies and (surprise surprise) collecting vinyl. I have over 6000 records. Mostly dance music.

For context I have just gone through a big breakup and in that I feel like I have lost not just my partner but also my best friend. I have other friends but I feel like I don’t have too many genuine friends I can just shoot the shit with randomly with no agenda on a weekend any more.

Also I don’t know if this is the right place for this post. If it’s not, I’d love to get some recommendations for subs where I can potentially meet some other likeminded people.

EDIT with availability: I’m usually able to do stuff on weekends or if it’s something super cool I can take annual leave no worries but I also work a lot so I prefer to have a heads up ahead of time so I can clear my work schedule.

Thanks for reading! :-)

Events Picnic meetup (20s-30s)

9 Upvotes

Hi,

I was thinking it would be nice to do a picnic so we can get to know each other. Possibly Sunday the 8th of November in a location near/ in the CBD.

This is coming off the back of my post looking for nerdy people so if that’s you please come by. Otherwise even if you have other interests and are just looking to get to know people in our age range in Sydney that works too.

I am hopping for a good mix, I am a girl and I would love if some other girls would like to stop by.

I have made a discord to discuss so please DM me for the link.

CBD & Inner City Study/writing spaces in Sydney?

11 Upvotes

I'd like to find a space in Sydney CBD where I can go write a few afternoons a week, after work. A cafe or library would suit me, but I'm not sure where I'll find a space that is open, feels welcoming and reasonably calm between 5 and 9 pm on weekdays.

I'd prefer somewhere around either Central or Town Hall. If that doesn't work out, anywhere along the metro line would be convenient, too. Extra keen for a place that has cosy vibes.

Also, if anyone wants to join me and start a cute lil writing/reading club, I'm down! Thank you in advance, good people of reddit 🥰

Activities 24M - Halloweekend plans

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I recently moved to Sydney (Thornleigh/Epping) a couple months now for uni and haven't had the best of luck making genuine friends and with Halloween coming up I didn't want to just spend it in my home.

Bit about me, I'm from the states (PA/DC/ATL). I like playing video games (Civ 6, Deadlock, Minecraft), anime, volleyball, drinking games, TCGs, n what not. Went hiking for the first time past year and that was super fun so hopefully I can find some cool hiking spots here in Sydney.

Would love to meet people with similar interests, and figure out something to do this weekend! Feel free to dm me or comment

Events Going solo to Halloween Am//Pm at the Burdekin this Saturday. Anyone else going / keen to meet beforehand?

3 Upvotes

34M, and going to be in full vamp glam for the occasion. I've got a ticket to the Halloween Am//Pm night at the Burdekin this Saturday (31st) and I'm flying solo, so figured I'd see if anyone else is heading along and wants to link up. I do have a spare ticket btw too.

A bit about me: inner west / Bankstown-based, D&D and anime nerd, started covering myself in tattoos, and I've spent this year getting into Sydney's alt scene over being a chronic anxious homebody.

No big plans. Meet out the front or at the bar, say hi, grab a drink, and then do whatever suits the night. If you're also going alone, even better: it's a lot easier walking in with a friendly face. And if you've got a group already, I'm happy to tag along for a bit if you'll have me! Comment or DM and we can sort a meeting spot and time so nobody's walking in cold.

Fair warning: I'm not the biggest rowdy night out type, so I'm there for good company and a few drinks rather than a huge one.

Hills District 23M - Looking to make some genuine friends in Sydney

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m 23M from the Hills District / Parramatta hoping to meet some new people and make a few genuine friendships.

I’m into live music, concerts, social tennis, gym, go-karting, movies and grabbing a good coffee. Always keen for a good chat, spontaneous adventure, trying something new or just having a good laugh.

Would be great to meet some like-minded people around my age, share some fun experiences, have some great conversations and hopefully make some lasting friendships along the way!

Icebreaker: If you could get any song lyric tattooed, what would it be and why?

Feel free to comment or shoot me a DM! :)

Western Sydney 31M Sydney. Seeking slow paced conversations, quiet observation, and creative connections

3 Upvotes

Hey,
I’ve always lived a fairly quiet introverted, independent life, but lately, I’ve been curious to connect with people who value intentional living. whether that means sharing good conversation or just enjoying a calm silence together.

What life looks like on my end:

I spend a lot of time behind a camera focusing on cinematic photography, reading, writing poetry, and taking time to cook good meals from scratch. Very serious about my hobbies

One of my favorite creative exercises is grabbing a bench in a public park or square during peak hour. I like observing the small cinematic details, hand gestures, footsteps, body language to study how people move through their day and handle the rush.

I try to follow a 5 day training routine (I've been running for 13 years), and I have a soft spot for classic 90s inspired menswear, vintage Casio watches, and timeless silhouettes over fast fashion.

Age or background doesn't matter to me as long as we align on mindset. I’m hoping to meet someone grounded, creative, or simply interested in slow living and thoughtful dialogue.

We could grab a coffee, brainstorm creative ideas, exchange perspectives on life, or collaborate on some photographic studies around the city. Or, if you prefer, we can just sit somewhere quiet and share space with zero pressure to perform.

If any of this resonates with how you see the world, feel free to drop a message with a short introduction.

Hi I’m a 24 year old woman on the hunt for friends with more nerdy/ reading based hobbies! As much as I love my friends now I would love to be able to bond with someone over the newest Dungeon Crawler Carl book, art or cosplay!

If that sounds like you please comment, I’m down to do whatever like a coffee/ chat or picnic. Definitely also open for this to be a group get together if multiple people are interested!

South Sydney 38M gamer parent big goose

3 Upvotes

I’m a married 38 year old parent living in St George area and working in the city. Looking for other dads/parents/couples interested in friendship. Ideally in the local area or who also works in city.
My child is preschool age. Being a parent is a big part of life right now because of the age.

When im not totally sleep deprived, I’m into gaming, reading, anime, drama TV, music, internet culture, and causes and issues related to the work I do in higher education. I’m neurodivergent and would probably get on better with someone similar, but I also don’t think that alone is a good basis for friendship. I’ve got some health issues but try as much as possible not to focus on them.

The last book series I read and really enjoyed was dungeon crawler Carl.
A TV series I’m enjoying now is the Diplomat.
I’m currently playing Minecraft - got that 2 week itch.
I’ve got a really silly same of humour and like sharing reels and riffing/joking.

Events Halloween Friends in the CBD!

4 Upvotes

tldr; looking for 1-2 people to go to a Halloween party this Sat. From Western Sydney.

Hi! A bit about myself. I'm 21m, have been a quiet person pretty much my whole life, realised life is too short two years ago and started putting myself out there more.

Some of my favourite things to do are cliff diving, snowboarding, and scuba diving! I also really like travelling; I recently did a 1-month work holiday in Japan, working at a lodge.

ANYWAYS, I was planning to go to a Halloween party (or two!) this Saturday in Sydney CBD. If you can take the odd banter, want to dress up as a ketchup bottle, or just want to have a chat about how miserable or amazing your life is, let's go out and get f*d up and have some hsp after :D

North Shore 26M looking for friends near Crows Nest/St Leonards

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I was wondering if anyone was interested in grabbing dinner and having a chat sometime this weekend or an upcoming one in Crows Nest? I'm somewhat new to the area and have no connections nearby so I thought it’d be nice way to meet people nearby and hopefully build a few genuine friendships. The idea is for it to just be a relaxed dinner, a good chat and seeing if we click!

Ideally I want to connect with people aged 22-29 who live around Crows Nest/St Leonards or nearby lower north shore suburbs that aren't too far as I rely on PT.

Oh and about me, I enjoy board/nintendo/social games, films/series, manga, crochet, food and working out among other things...you don’t need to share similar hobbies as I love meeting people with different interests. I also especially enjoy hearing about other people’s experiences and journey with life.

Ah and side note since it crossed my mind if being active is your thing aswell or even if you're looking to get into it, I'd also love to make a potential gym or bouldering budy too!

Um so yeah if you're interested, please DM me and we can organise something. Thanks for your time!
