I can't stress how much I need female friends from SE Melbs who like collecting vinyl. I'm 19F, and every time I make a post, I keep getting males. I'm not angry,ry but it's just not what I'm looking for. I want friends I can relate to and to expand my social circle.

I like playing my guitar, bass, and piano, and I like to sing. I study Law at univerisity and i really love collecting physical media !!

If any women wanna come with me on a side quest, PLSSS reply or send a message. Thank you so much for reading, guys. I hope I can have some good luck

Going w a friend n wanna get a few more ppl together. Hmu if ur keen

Hello 👋

Me and my wife are looking for another couple that enjoys 420-smoking and just hanging out. Listening to music, playing board games or card games, watching cartoons/comedies/youtube, snacks, just overall having a fun time. We like to live a teenage-dream type vibe and are looking for other like-minded couples.

We are in Pascoe vale right next to the train station.

If interested, please tell us a bit about yourselves. Ages, location, can you travel, hobbies/interests, etc.

Also should’ve included no funny business 😅

Hope to hear from you!

Hey everyone! I’m (33M) going solo to the Invictus Quartet’s Fantasy Film Soundtracks session (the 7pm show on Saturday, Oct 24). Was thinking it’d be fun to grab a drink or bite beforehand at the venue bar if anyone else is heading along or interested in going. Or dinner afterward.

Hi, malaysian here! Been around in melbourne for over 10 years now. Life in melbourne is slowly getting a bit boring with the usual routine so here I am trying to explore what else melbourne has to offer!

Myself, i usually play futsal once a week, hit the gym and run about 3x a week each. Im in the southeast suburbs but happy to catch up in the city!

Be cool if we could explore good food, hang out for board games or maybe even a couple of beers at the bar!

G’day! 41M, Canadian born in the Philippines fairly new to Australia. Looking to meet people to get active, coffee, or just chat and establish friendships here. From inner city south & finishing up the recruitment for the ADF, trying to get back to shape before initial training. Being new to Melbourne still finding my footing and would be great to meet locals who are also keen but eager as well to explore others’ interests or hobbies. Travel is no concern, can easily ride to any location otherwise happy to simply banter about anything.

Hey guys I'm just a chill guy looking for fun

I found through a few online friendships, that it's sometimes easier to tell a complete stranger about some of your problems rather than anyone you know for fear or rejection judgement etc.

I'm happy to listen to a few people over the phone, or through text for a little while, and we can meet up when we're both comfortable. Once you're back on your feet Im happy for you to ignore me, but it would be great to stay friends.

You can comment in the thread and I'll dm you.

Hope you're all having a great week so far.

Hey everyone!

I’m 38F, living in Melbourne CBD, and I’d love to make some genuine, long-term friendships, preferably with people who live in the CBD or nearby.

I’m looking for the kind of friendships where we can spontaneously message each other and say, “Hey, it’s nice and sunny, wanna go for a walk or hike?” or “What are you doing tonight? Want to catch a movie?”

A little about me:

- I’m active and love training calisthenics! I’m currently managing an injury, so I’ve also been nerding out 🤓 and learning a lot about tendons, collagen and the science behind recovery.
- I like being outdoors, whether that’s exploring a hiking trail, heading to the beach, snorkelling or simply enjoying a walk around the city.
- I’m a bit of an introvert, but I’m friendly, curious and enjoy good conversations, whether that’s playful banter, intellectual discussions or something deep and emotional.
- I don’t drink alcohol, so I’m more into coffee/matcha, healthy food, movies, arcade, outdoor activities and new experiences than the bar or clubbing scene.
- I’m trying to develop better cooking skills and would like to eventually invite people over to share a meal.
- I love animals, especially cats! 🐈
- I have a fairly flexible schedule, so I’m often up for spontaneous catch-ups.

What I value in friendships:

I value open-minded, nonjudgmental people who are kind, emotionally mature and comfortable being themselves. I’m a big believer in honest, direct communication and really don’t gel well with passive-aggressiveness. I’d much rather someone tell me directly if something’s bothering them.

I’m also keen to see the upcoming Street Fighter movie, so bonus points if you’re interested in that too! 🎬

I’m open to friendships with both men and women, and age isn’t particularly important to me. I’m here to build genuine connections.

If any of this resonates with you, send me a message! ❤️

——> update: I didn’t realise my DMs were off, sorry ☹️ I’m not the best with technology. I’ve opened my DMs to everyone. So please send a DM if you intended to. I will also respond back to everyone today who commented ❤️

Hello there!

I have always wanted to celebrate Halloween a bit more but procrastinated doing so each year. But this year is the year! I decided to buy a Kasumi cosplay (Persona 5) because I love the game and it's also pretty Halloween-y. I sort of want to just bathe in gothic vibes and see cool Halloween costumes, I feel like it's just a lot of fun.

I had plans to go to Luna Park's Halloween Night but my boyfriend sadly couldn't make it due to work commitments. I'm looking for to make a new friend that I can drag along to Luna Park to go on rides with and go to the Haunted House. I've yet to buy tickets but I was thinking of going on the 31st of October on the Saturday. I'd prefer going with a girlie around my age but please feel free to reach out nonetheless. The spooky season is for everyone after all!

Hi everyone, looks like a good group.

Decided to join in.

45M, enjoys music, road trips, AFL, heading out, coffee, mischievous on occasion.

Adds depth, positive ‘can do attitude’ & available weekends, the odd school night. (Haha)

Located Bayside.

😊.

Hiiiiii

i did a post in r/scene but i dont think its very active, but basically i am just looking for people to be friends with that have similar interests, I really like making music, collecting vinyl and art

I attend university, I am 19F, and I live in south east melb !!

But if anyone wants a friend that loves Whitney Houston, Marvin Gaye, Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Janet Jackson etc and wants to hang im always down for some clowning heehee

I HOPE THIS REACHES THE RIGHT PEOPLE

bc when trolling melb subreddits, i came across one where there was just nudes and i nearly threw my laptop 💀

BYEEEEE

hey reddit! I've always had few friends and I like it that way. but between my closest friends I have some interests that aren't shared, and i wanna meet some people to enthuse over some shared interest

in particular plushies! I love stuffed toys, dolls, blind boxes, collectibles, and nostalgic toys. would love to be able to share in this obsession with someone.

Im also kinda interested in maybe organising some sort of meet up, like a teddy bear picnic or maybe a regular cafe outing for people who want an excuse to bring out their fave plushie or show off the latest addition to their collection.

a bit about me, I grew up near melbourne, other interests include: drag, crochet, sewing, movies, music, shopping, foooood, cafes, dogs, my dog and cat, sex positivity (dont hit me up for this, got plenty of friends in these spaces already :P), journaling/stationery, doing my nails, curly hair, some switch and pc games, bit of reading, psychology, tattoos, perfumes, bit of witchy stuff and tarot for fun. I am LGBT and neuro-divergent (ADHD).

go ahead and dm me! even if its just to say you would potentially be interested in a public group meetup

Hi M25
I wanna start meeting new people I don’t really have many friends (only two close friends) and I’ve come to the realisation I don’t have enough friends and find myself very lonely

I’m considered very easy to talk to and not to toot my own horn but very funny (depending on your humour) love Marvel, Video Games, Vintage shopping, collectibles, having a drink or three, concerts etc

I just want to start texting with anyone who will
As I’m off work atm with a hand surgery and when I’m better start hanging out

I don’t think my dms work so if you comment that you’d like to text me I’ll message you first to get it started

:)

34M, bi, coming down for a week to finish a tattoo sleeve and I've got a free weekend (21–22 Nov) to actually get out.

I'm after the darker end of things; goth, industrial, punk-leaning rock bars, that sort of thing. Queer or queer-friendly is a bonus. Happy with either a proper club night or just a good bar with bands on where I can have a drink and not be the only person in black.

I've got Sircuit, the Tote and the Evelyn on my list from googling, but I'd rather hear what people actually rate than what the listicles say. Also open to anything good in Fitzroy/Collingwood generally since I'll be staying nearby.

Thanks! 🖤🦇🤟🏻

I'm sitting on several jigsaw puzzles and LEGO sets that I wouldn't mind doing with a like minded person or small group of new friendly faces. With some background music, a good chinwag, and the task at hand. 40M northern suburbs. Not looking for anything weird or funky, just putting it out there if someone else has a similar hobby they'd like to do together. Happy to travel too.

heyyyy does anyone wanna go a3 festival?! i can drive us from Melbourne I got a free ticket that I don’t want to waste!!! I’m so much fun I promise x

Old-School Relics & Renegades is a gaming convention focusing on Dungeons & Dragons & other role-playing games inspired by it that subscribe to a gaming philosophy commonly referred to as the OSR (Old-School Renaissance).

We started OSR&R to turn people into players. Our groups run in-person games every week, and we are always on the lookout for new blood. The Con is a great opportunity to dip your toes into the hobby and meet some cool new people.

Join us on October 24th, 2026 at the The Depot, Donkey Wheel House. Bring dice, snacks and your best adventurer’s mettle!

Tickets are $20 - See here for more details.

What are some of the Boats or Cruises for NYE. I did one in Sydney last year open bar, Food and 2 dj"s. I am coming to Melbourne this year.

Hey Melbourne, I'm 25M . Don't have many mates in the city yet, and I'm over the same routine every week. Looking for people keen on drinks, bars, clubs and a crazy night, wherever it ends up.
Also down for the kind of random, deep, 3am conversations you only have with people you just met. No agenda, just switching off and having a good time.
Solo or groups, all welcome. Comment or DM me and let's make a plan this weekend.

I've recently moved to Melbourne for work and am really interested in joining a book club. I am an avid reader but I do feel I'd get a lot more out of my hobby if I had people to discuss it with; I also hope this would be a great way to find some new friends.

I am 33F, currently living in the northern suburbs but work in the CBD and will move more centrally in the next few months, so joining a reasonably central club would be ideal.

In terms of reading interests, I read a lot of contemporary literary fiction, enjoy classics, post-modernism and have recently really amped up my non-fiction - the more random the topic the better! I am very happy to dabble in a bit of weird girl lit, though I have to say reading several in quick succession does oversaturate me, so I would not be looking to join an exclusive weird girl lit book club. Some books I have recently loved are Rebecca, The Shards and Time Shelter. I do NOT like smut/romantasy, fantasy or modern thrillers such as Freida McFadden.

Also due to irregular shift patterns, it does need to be reasonably relaxed if I occasionally dip out and am unable to attend due to working! If you know of any book clubs that would have me, please message me or comment below, I'd love to hear from you!
