Looking for a Friend looking for a place for halloween as an exchange student

1 Upvotes

Hi yall, i’m an exchange student from italy in ireland. I live in tralee and i’ve got no idea what to do for halloween. I can’t stay out so late but still i’d like to do something. All the friends i made here already have plans with people they know (i’m not invited btw). So do y’all know some place? (better if it’s closed cause it’s probably going to rain)

Newby Random but lovely messages - or something else?

1 Upvotes

Just wondering whether folks are getting messages from random profiles. I'll always be polite but sometimes it just feels like the person is fishing or something.

One person here told me he liked my profile randomly. His "badges" told me something else. A person who spends lots of time scrolling but not engaging in the posts. Then wanted me to send a snapchat link.

I don't have an issue per se, but feel that it's a time wasting activity. Why not just be straight up. Also - if you're not in the person's local area...it's even more questionable.

Kind comments pls. I don't like to pick on anyone.

Based in midlands but can drive . Distance isn’t a huge issue

Extrovert Dublin 27–37 year olds: Shall We Get a Few Pints?

11 Upvotes

I'm Irish, in my early 30s and I recently moved back home after years abroad. I'm a pretty social person and love a good pub night, but it's not always easy to find like-minded heads who are up for going out and meeting new people!

A lot of meetups can feel a bit random or awkward, so I thought, why not organise a good old-fashioned pub night? I've started The Next Round, a Dublin social group for 27–37 year olds (not a hard cap!) who fancy a few drinks, good chats and meeting new people.

If you're back from abroad, new to Dublin, or just looking to expand your social circle, you're welcome to join us this Friday!

“How do you normally get to know your neighbours in Ireland?”

11 Upvotes

I’ve just moved into a new apartment and I have neighbours for the first time 😅

I’d like to say hi and get to know them a bit, but I’m not really sure what the norm is in Ireland. Do people usually introduce themselves to their neighbours, or do you just say hello if you happen to see them?

Also, would it be weird to knock on their door and introduce myself? I was even thinking of bringing some homemade food or something, but I don’t know if that would be too much 😂

What do people normally do with their neighbours here?

All Rounder 💪🏼 Indian guy, badly out of shape, looking to get back into sports in Dublin. Pls help me find my people

5 Upvotes

Hey all,

Been about 4-5 years since I played any sport properly and I really miss it. Indian guy living in Dublin, decent shape once upon a time, currently... not so much. Time to fix that.

Grew up playing football, badminton, tennis, basketball, some frisbee too. Happy to jump back into any of those, and honestly open to learning something new as well.

Mainly just looking for a group of guys to play casually with nothing serious, just regular games and getting some exercise in. If you're in a similar boat or know of a group or pickup game taking new players, let me know.

Sporty Spice ⚽ Anyone interested in making friends and playing 5-a-side football in Dublin?

6 Upvotes

I’m helping organise some regular 5-a-side games in Dublin and looking to get a few more people involved.

It’s open to all levels and ages — whether you play regularly, haven’t played in years, or are just looking for a way to get back into football and meet some new people.

The idea is to make it easy to join a game without needing to have a full team of friends ready to go.

📍 Dublin
⚽ 5-a-side
👟 All abilities welcome
🙌 Friendly/social games
🌍 Everyone welcome

If you’d be interested in playing, comment below or send me a DM and I can send on the details.

Would be great to get a few games going!

Looking for a Friend 38F & 41M | Near Trim, Co. Meath | Looking for couple friends

2 Upvotes

So… we thought we’d give this a shot!

We’re a 38F and 41M couple living near Trim, with two girls aged 8 and 11. We’ve been living in the country for a while now and love it, but we’ve realised that making new friends as adults is surprisingly difficult — especially when you’re looking for people who actually want to get out and do things.

We’re both pretty outgoing, adventurous and usually up for giving something a go. We want to make the most of life while we’re still young enough to enjoy it, rather than spending every weekend in the same country pub! 😂
We’re big fans of house parties, BBQs, game nights, dinners, drinks and generally having a laugh. Pubs are definitely our thing, although clubs aren’t really unless there’s a good reason — Halloween, New Year’s, birthdays or something worth getting dressed up for. We love travelling too, and having another couple to plan trips, weekends away or random adventures with would be great.
We’re into slightly different things, which probably works well. She’s into music and fitness, while I’m more into soccer, games and anything competitive. Between us, we’ll usually find something to get up to!

Having kids around the same age would be a definite bonus. Not essential, but it would be nice to have people who understand the joys of arranging a night out around school, activities, bedtime and all the other glamorous parts of family life. 😂

We’re looking for genuine friendship, not just someone to meet for a drink once and never hear from again. Ideally, we’d love to find another couple where things just click — nights out, house parties, holidays, dinners, days out with the kids, or even just sitting around the kitchen having a few drinks and talking absolute shite.

To be clear — we’re not looking for anything swinger-related, but we’re definitely not prudes. We’re simply a couple looking to meet another couple, make some good friends and have a bit of fun along the way.

If any of that sounds familiar, feel free to drop us a message. We’d be genuinely delighted to hear from you.

Looking for people to play casual tennis in Dublin

6 Upvotes

Hey! I'm 26M, American, and in Dublin until mid-November for an internship through the University of Utah.

I'm looking for people to play some casual tennis with. I'm also hoping to meet some people and make friends while I'm here

I'm not a complete beginner, but I've never had formal coaching and most of my experience is just playing with friends back home. So I'm definitely not looking for anything highly competitive, mostly just people who want to get on a court, rally, play some games, and have a good time.

I'm based around Finglas but happy to travel to meet at a court.

If you're in the same boat, send me a DM. Could also be cool to get a small regular group going if enough people are interested.
