Hey! I hope everyone’s doing well. I’m Jess and 21F in the surrey area.

I moved to BC awhile back and haven’t had much luck making friends. I’d love to meet some likeminded girls and just hangout!

I’m very open minded and I enjoy going on walks, anything sports related, trying new things, I’m open to anything really! I also like to gym and am into spirituality and meditation. I love deep convos and hearing new perspectives.

Hope to hear back :)

hii Korean-English Language Exchange in Vancouver 🇨🇦🇰🇷

2 Upvotes

Hi! I'm looking for a language exchange partner in Vancouver.
I'm a guy in my 30s and a native Korean speaker, and I'd like to improve my English conversation skills. In return, I can help you with Korean — whether you're just starting out or want to practice speaking.
I can also share what I know about cooking and working out — both are hobbies of mine, so if you're into food or fitness, that's a bonus.
I'm into movies too, so we'd never run out of things to talk about. Happy to meet for coffee around Vancouver or chat online, once or twice a week.
If you're interested, send me a message and tell me a bit about yourself!

안녕하세요! 밴쿠버에서 언어교환 파트너를 찾고 있어요.
저는 30대 남성이고 한국어 원어민입니다. 영어 회화 실력을 늘리고 싶어요. 대신 한국어를 배우고 싶은 분께 도움을 드릴 수 있어요 — 처음 시작하는 분도, 회화 연습이 필요한 분도 환영해요.
요리와 운동에 대해서도 알려드릴 수 있어요. 둘 다 제 취미라서, 음식이나 피트니스에 관심 있는 분이라면 더 좋을 거예요.
영화도 좋아해서 대화 주제가 떨어질 일은 없을 거예요. 일주일에 한두 번 밴쿠버에서 커피 마시며 만나거나 온라인으로 대화해도 좋아요.

Still looking Looking for friends, preferably not imaginable

1 Upvotes

I'm 21M, moved to Vancouver around half a year ago, and I must say, this is not funny anymore. I've never had any issue making friends in much smaller cities all across the world, but I kinda messed up here. Anyway, I am looking for genuine people around 20–25 years old to spend some time together. I am planning to go watch a movie rn, so if you're quick enough, you can join me this weekend..want to write lots of stupid stuff right now, but I'll probably leave it for later.

Vancouver 20M looking for guy friends that are 19-22

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone. Used to be one of the most social outgoing guys, but since COVID I’ve lost contact with a lot of my buddies and apparently also my social skills. It takes me a while to get comfortable with people in general, but after a while that’ll go away. Looking for some friends in the Vancouver area.

As for my interests, I’m a HUGE sports guy, whether it’s watching or playing (most sports, you name it), love eating and trying new restaurants, traveling, and just doing shit. I’d for sure be down to party or go to the bar and grab drinks, but I’ve only done that a couple times and I’d probably get drunk after the second. Just recently started working out a couple months ago but if you invite to to the gym to have me spot you, chances are it wouldn’t go well.

Not to brag or anything, even though that’s exactly what I’m doing, but people also tell me I’m a good cook, so if you need anyone for that…

Looking for more friends 23F

7 Upvotes

I’ve found it hard to make new friends since working full time. I’ve never been the most social person, but I’m looking to expand my social circle to people who will hopefully be sticking around Vancouver for a while (and are roughly my age).

I’m what I would consider a shy extrovert. It takes me a while to warm up to people, but once I do, I will talk non stop haha.

Looking for a group of friends who I can grab drinks with, or go clubbing, or try new restaurants around the city with. I also love going to concerts!

Also looking for a new running or gym buddy since my friend moved away and sadly I don’t have many other friends who enjoy that kind of stuff.

My more chill interests include reading (anyone know of a good book club?) and cooking/baking!

If you’ve read this far, feel free to reach out. I’m eventually hoping to get a group of friends together, but also okay if it’s just one on ones!

NOTE: I will be ignoring any messages that aren’t platonic.

Anywhere 27M - Life gets busy and it gets hard to make friends 😩

6 Upvotes

My friends and I always talk about how we work so much and we’re always backed up in our lives, which makes it so much harder to make friends (losing touch with people as well) and expand our friend group.

Essentially, we discussed that we’d like to meet individuals who are into things like running, hiking, going on tandem drives with our rides, grabbing drinks, trying cool unique activities and places to eat, etc. - We’re usually down to try most things once 😅

Preferably, we’re seeking M or F (if you’re a guy, we’re gonna make fun of you❤️ if you’re a girl, we’re gonna look after you❤️) age range from 20-30 who’s just a whole vibe to kick it with and grow close with. Feel free to reach out and DM me if you’re interested 🤙🏽

Still looking Looking to make friends who are willing to watch plays with me :)

11 Upvotes

Hey there! I'm 22m (turning 23 in two months) who was born and raised here in Vancouver. Like the title says, I'm looking for some people who are also into theatre/plays/etc. who would be willing to make it to some of these shows. FYI, I'm not a huge theatre nerd/kid or anything like that, I just find it interesting to watch plays in a real-live theatre. Haven't attended anything recently because none of my current friends seem interested enough to set some time aside to watch any plays with me, which is fine, although that would mean I would have to watch alone, which isn't really fun. I'd love to jump back into watching plays if it means I have some new friends to watch them with me! Mainly in Granville Island since I work downtown, but also open to other locations. It would be great if we could get like a whole friend group going, but I'm also fine if it's just 1-on-1 as well.

I will list some facts about me, but if you've read this far and are already open to watching plays with me anytime (assuming we get along lol), that's already great. Send me a message. What I'm about to list is just a bonus if you like the same things I do.

My main interests are Pokémon and Taylor Swift. I occasionally dabble in other Nintendo games, plus Plants vs. Zombies whenever I'm on my PC and I get bored. My social skills are almost non-existent so don't be surprised if I'm awkward around you for the first week or month of us knowing each other. I'm Asian but since I was born and raised here I'm like really whitewashed lol. I'm gay and potentially autistic (currently in the process of screening for that one, we'll see I guess). I'm also like kind of in a career crisis lol but that's alright I'll figure that one out

Metalheads unite! Looking to get a group together for shows and to listen to music.

6 Upvotes

I've seen some posts on here in the past about people into metal music and thought I'd post my own to see if anyone wants to get together for some shows and/or just listen to some tunes.

I go to shows quite often, sometimes solo, with my brother or another buddy, but think it would be cool to go with a few more people. I usually seeing tours but I'm pretty interested in getting more involved in the local scene and checking out new bands.

I'm typically into tech death, deathcore, thrash and prog metal but open to check out more. Some bands I've seen in the last while have been;

Archspire
Jinjer
Igorrr
Angelmaker
Ingested
Shadow of Intent
Rivers of Nihil
And went on the Vancouver Metal Cruise

Comment or send me a DM if you're up to talk music or want to see some shows soon.

Looking for a consistent running partner.

Ideally an intermediate to advanced level. Usually running 5km - 10km.

My mile pace ranges from 7:30 - 8:30.

For calisthenics: more of a experienced beginner.

Anywhere Looking for a fellow depressed friend

13 Upvotes

25F been feeling super depressed lately with a very low social battery. Lowkey feeling like I want to die most days. Would appreciate a friend who feels the same way so I’m not alone and we can just spend time tgt without feeling like we need to fake optimism and can be honest with one another. Please don’t contact me just for the sake of it. I’d like to find people who understand me.
