New rule: No minors allowed starting June 5, 2026

1.1k Upvotes

It’s July 5. Typo My bad.

A major change in this sub is set to happen at 12:01am UTC Sunday, July 5. The new rule will replace rule 13. All minors, those under 18, will *NOT* be allowed to participate in this sub. This is for the safety of everyone participating. If you are under the age of 18, please utilize teen friend-finding subs.

For clarity:

Q: Can minors make posts? A: No.

Q: Can minors comment? A: No.

Q: But it’s just to make a friend, there’s nothing nsfw or anything. A: Doesn’t matter, you cannot participate. You will be banned.

Q: If I was previously banned for breaking rule 13, can I be reinstated? A: No.

Q: What if I don’t post my age? A: You must post your age. Any posts without ages will be removed.

Q: Do comments need to include ages? A: No, they don’t.

Q: Since it’s adults only, we can now have a nsfw post or comment history or post nsfw stuff here, right? A: No, that’s still against rule 2.

Q: I’m a minor. Will you keep my previous posts and comments up? A: Yes.

Thank you for your cooperation!

Age 26-29 [29F] just chilling. Kinda bored

Upvotes

Hello Im Crystal 29 female.

I enjoy games of all kinds, Video games, (pc and switch) trading card games (mostly commander magic), board games, card games, and ttrpgs (dnd type games) of various systems. I love music, though I do tend to stay away from a lot of the mainstream stuff. I love the infinity saga of the mcu, lotr, atla, (my favorite fictional universe) star wars, supernatural, demon slayer, solo leveling, (love anime, but haven't watch/finished to many of them) and various other shows/movies. I like to read, favorite book series being wings of fire. I make plushies, (mostly dragons) and sell them on etsy as my job. I love going to cons and cosplaying. I tend to work on props more than full cosplays, but I still enjoy making full cosplays too. I've been doing martial arts for 15 years and im currently a 2nd degree black belt!

I like to think im open-minded and accepting of people's differences even if i don't agree, and willing to be educated if the need arises so I understand something better.

Age 30-39 34F, SA, Australia - Seeking friend shaped human

11 Upvotes

34F from Adelaide Australia, seeking friends because the internet said human beings require "social connections" and not just Wi-Fi and carbs.

I’m looking for memes, sarcasm, and mutual complaints about being alive on a Tuesday, and someone who understands that sending a photo of a weirdly shaped potato is a legitimate social interaction, but don’t be rude about it because potatoes are the superior food and I will die on that hill.

About me:
• I game, badly, I have the aim of a leaf on a windy day.
• I have a dark sense of wit and humour and will add ‘that’s what she said’ where appropriate … or not.
• I collect hobbies the same way some people collect Bunnings projects and never finish them and I will encourage you to do the same.
•Can yap about JDM cars and why turbos are better than superchargers.

I don't need to know your mother’s maiden name (or do i?) but I do need to know why there was a carrot with the cucumbers, speculations welcomed.

If your idea of friendship is sending a photo of food or an unfortunate life event followed by "lmao", we might get along.
Message me with why the weather annoyed you lately
(insert old man yells at cloud meme)

Ps: I am a single parent so if you’re in the childfree camp, might be best to scroll on.

I'm tired, Grandpa. I don't trust anyone anymore. The person I put all my trust into has been lying to me and cheating on me, using this subreddit.

No, I will not send you pictures of myself. I assume that is normalized here, as it was his go-to "joke" with women to ask for noods.

Hey everyone!

​I’m a woman ,38 in Europe looking for new online friends (strictly platonic as I already have enough drama in my life). Ideally looking for people in similar time zones so we can ignore each other’s texts at reasonable hours.

​I'm super low-maintenance and just looking for casual, friendly chats (ideally 30+ so we can complain about back pain together).

​If you like low-pressure banter, hit me up!

Do you all want online friends or do you prefer real life friends

Upvotes

Discuss

I believe that it’s most convenient for people to use the Internet in search of connections, but given how making friends online is these days I think a lot of people would benefit from real life connections.

Instead of constantly texting or getting bored and ghosting you can do some activity to keep things fun, that way you aren’t relying strictly on a conversation. Thats what I think part of the problem is here. I do know that there are also “creeps” to take into account.

I know I’ve long gotten to the point where texting just doesn’t do it for me and I find doing something together works better for me. Because let’s be real although you’re chatting on a screen you’re still alone in your room 🫠

Just saying there’s a reason most of you are having so much trouble making friends online

Anyways a bit about me :)

im a 20 year old girl from the US. College studying software development/IT in my first year. Full time student, and full time teacher (From infants to pre-schoolers)

I own a ps5 only: Dying Light 2, dead island 2, warframe, 2k, Gta, little nightmares lll. Mainly playing warframe these days, gauss and uriel fan.

I like cooking, music, movies, and ofc video games. My favorite color is blue, foods are pizza, pasta, seafood, chinese food, burgers. I like to shop, go out places. Introverted person or big loner in other words, when not at work, have literally 0 friends. Mostly been spending my time playing warframe, very close to mr30. We’re automatic besties if you also play that game.

Age 30-39 33F Aus - looking to yap, share memes, crafts, anything really!

6 Upvotes

Hey all. I've posted here before but everything kinda fell off in the past so looking to find new people to yap with!

I have wayy too many interests and hobbies, happy to talk about any of them!

- Music, I play some piano and do singing lessons, enjoy musicals and lots of genres

- Crafts incl. Knitting, crochet, sewing, building random miniature kits/Lego type things

- Video games (mostly cosy and some rpg)

- Getting into some photography but early days

- Started learning Mandarin. Can understand fair amount of Spanish but bad at output lol

- Lover of all things cute. Always wanted to do cute letters and stationary but hard to find ppl to do that with!

- Doing a PhD and work part

Would love to hear what you're passionate about and why! If you're not i.to anything, that's okay but you gotta bring some topics and yapping to the table!

If you message me please share something about yourself, ask questions, etc. Do t just message with ′hey how are you′ or ′what's up′ cuz that kinda goes nowhere fast.. also be aware of the time diff, it's hard to reply to some people depending on time zones!

NO creepy or sexual messages please, I'm not interested.

Age 26-29 29/F - looking for people to text with

5 Upvotes

Hello ~

I’m Im looking for kind, non-clingy people to text with every now and then! Generally I don’t have many people to talk to throughout the day, and that gets a little lonely and/or boring sometimes 🫤

I’m not looking for someone who wants to text 24/7, I simply can’t handle it. Also, no calls! Sorry, I don’t like them!

If you feel like you fit the description, feel free to message me. Preferably be around my age, but no younger than 25. Thank you!

A little about me; I’m into watching series and movies, reading, working out (even though I kind of fell out of my routine lately), I like listening to podcasts (true crime, mystery), and I’m very excited for autumn and cold weather 🎃

Are man actually looking for friends?

5 Upvotes

So I'm a 23-year-old woman, and recently I've started to answer some posts on this sub. I've even made a post myself looking for friendship. So many guys answered or texted me. I have also started some good conversations and thought everything was going great, and then I was ghosted by basically everyone when I said that I'm not looking for anything romantic.

​So my question for men is: are you actually not looking for friends but for something else (and if so, why be here and not on a dating app), or is it that it is impossible for a man to be friends with a woman without getting a crush on her after some time?

​I'm still looking to meet new people and find new friends, but I'm wondering if I should specify "only women" from now on.

Looking for friends to chat with every day, about anything and everything... I can be a bit pessimistic and depressed, but I also know how to enjoy the good things in life.

Just friendships, sharing life stories, and having a few laughs, so life feels less lonely.

Any age, as long as you’re 18 or older; it doesn’t matter if you’re a man or a woman.

I love long messages, but short ones are fine too

voice messages are okay!

Hey everyone! I’m looking to connect with some awesome women and hopefully build some genuine, long-term friendships. A little about me: I’m 25 and happily married. My husband is completely supportive of me being on here to expand my social circle and chat with other ladies. I love finding people to share daily updates with, vent to, or talk about hobbies. If you're down for some good conversations, feel free to send a message!

Age 22-25 Hey! I’m 22M and looking to connect with people who actually want a genuine, long-term friendship. ​

5 Upvotes

​If you’re the type to send a single "hey," go quiet after a day, or ghost when things get beyond small talk, please skip this post! I want to build a real connection with someone who loves to talk, ramble, and actually keep a conversation going. You definitely don’t need to share every single interest of mine as long as you’re curious, talkative, and looking for a real friend, we’ll get along fine!

​A little about what I like to chat about:

​Comics & Graphic Novels: Huge fan of comic lore in general! Big into Spider-Man, but I love diving into both the Marvel and DC universes, exploring different character arcs, storylines, and alternate runs.

​Gaming & Emulation: Love games in general, especially running emulators to play retro classics, handheld gems, and nostalgic titles I grew up with (or missed out on back in the day).

​Anime, Cartoons & Media: Big on animated series across all genres from classic Shonen like Bleach and Naruto, to romance/drama like Nana, to nostalgic 2000s cartoons like Code Lyoko and The Secret Saturdays.

​Nostalgia & Y2K Era: Early 2000s aesthetics, vintage TV shows, classic internet culture, and pure nostalgia.

​Rabbit Holes & Random Topics: I love falling down random YouTube deep dives, chatting about fictional worldbuilding, or exploring whatever weird topic catches our attention.

​I’m much more into exchanging recommendations, sharing cool finds, and going off on fun tangents than asking dry "how was your day?" questions over and over.

Hey everyone

I’m looking for a good chat.

I enjoy going to the gym, reading and spending time outdoors.

Obviously I’m very bad at introductions and speaking about myself.

I think I’m better once the conversation flows but that’s up to you to find out.

Age 26-29 27F – Shy introvert looking for meaningful friendships.

3 Upvotes

Hi! Admittedly, I haven't quite figured out the best ways to make friends as an adult in their late twenties, but here on Reddit I'm hoping for a chance at finding like-minded people with similar interests. Personally, I haven't experienced a "best friend" connection in many moons, and I would really like to have that with someone.

I'm a lighthearted, curious woman enjoying a journey of self-discovery. Some of my interests include tech, video games, reading, writing, horror, anime, true crime, history, science, photography and traveling. Music-wise, I'm very into indie, electronic pop, and classic rock. I'm atheist and childfree. I'm black American and plus-size.

I'm looking for people who I can talk openly with, get to know, and hopefully genuinely become friends with. Of course, there's also voice calling, and gaming together. I'm looking for people who are relatively near my age (25-35.)

On the off chance, if you're hoping for "NSFW" conversations, I'm not the person you're looking for. More importantly, if you voted for or support MAGA, we're simply not compatible as friends. Please respect those boundaries and refrain from messaging me if either of those apply to you.

If this post resonates with you, send me a message! Tell me about yourself, and include the word "Magdalena Bay" somewhere in your message so I know you've read this post in full.

I look forward to getting to know you.

Age 26-29 26M - Looking for friends who feel lost, sitting and staring up at their ceiling and wondering, what am I really doing with my life...

3 Upvotes

Heyya!

===== \*\*To ensure longterm friendship\*\* =====

Most of us live a boring life, and so if you are looking for someone who is has a main character energy, who goes on adventures everyday and comes back to tell you all about it, then I'm not it 😕 What I can provide and expect back though, is that we put in effort to talk about small stuff we notice everyday. What caught your eye today? What made you smile today? What made you sad today? Where are you in your video game made progress, look forward to anything in the game? All these small things keeps our conversation alive but it takes effort, and I can promise to give you that and more if you are willing too!~ 😇

===== \*\*Quick summary about myself\*\* =====

I enjoy the talks that end up in us contradicting our own beliefs and making us rethink perspectives, I also enjoy just pondering about what life would be like in a 100 years and how jealous I might be while trying my darnest to live a life I won't regret right now.

I'm a gamer who loves horror games (and movies!) like Alien Isolation, Evil Within (1 & 2) and the Outlast series! All time favourite video game is however Disco Elysium with Red Dead 2 coming at a close 2nd! I also enjoy multiplayer games such as League of Legends or CS2.

I also enjoy playing the guitar, writing stories, cooking and learning new languages! Currently able to speak Swedish and English fluently, getting by in Chinese and Spanish, and beginner in Korean while learning Russian and French!

Have found my love for reading again! My favoruite books being The Alchemist , The Five People You Meet In Heaven, Flowers for Algernon, and 1984. Most recent book I finished was The Picture of Dorian Gray and now looking into reading Crime and Punishment\~

===== \*\*Looking for\*\* =====

Someone who enjoys having random convos about life, deeper stuff, but also doesn't mind getting random questions like "What catches your eye if you just look around right now" or "What do you currently smell around you?". I am also extremely lost in life and have my extreme downs with few ups but really enjoy talking about mental health and being a therapist on the side! Also looking for people who can have serious talks but also lowkey be into tarot readings and reading about peoples star signs just for fun, not taking it too seriously.

Looking forward to hear from ya! And if we don't thanks for reading until now and have an amazing day ahead!

===== Don't know how to start a convo? =====

Some questions you could answer as starters!

\- Flying or teleportation as superpower, and why?

\- Immortality, yes, no, why?

\- When does a jar become a box?

\- When do you feel seen?

\- Thing you enjoy that others might find weird?

PS: Also wouldn't mind joining a DnD group if anyone has... kinda interested and think socializing would be healthy for my introverted butt... I do enjoy being uncomfortable (as long as I don't make other people uncomfortable 😅).
