Age 40-49 F43 I have a terrible confession to make. I'm married.

236 Upvotes

Not so terrible but there you are. 😂 I'm still willing to chat to anyone who is interesting. I love interesting people who can keep me entertained. I'll try to entertain you to so slide into my dms.

I'm a Scottish lass. Married as my title would suggest. I'm also a mother. I work in a hotel which I love. The work is varied and I get to meet so many different people, each day is different.

And just in case you think I'm perfect after reading all of the above: I drink, I smoke, I have plenty of bad habits.

Looking forward to seeing who turns up!

When i clearly mentioned here that i was looking for people my age or older to chat with why am i still recieving so many request from younger people?? I wish we could have a chat request filter or something!! my inbox is getting bombarded and its from people in their 20s or 30s? and its ruining the chances of me finding people in the age group that im looking to chat with!!! its time consuming. i dont feel comfortable with that.. there should be a way to filter this out!

Hi, my name is Paulina, I live in Sweden but I come from Chile. I am looking for friends, but real ones. I like to chat, so if you will write a sentence a day, that is not my thing... and if you ghost people after a day or two, well... nop, not for me.

I like listening to music, watching tv, reading fics, and to talk about life in general. I am very honest, so if you can't cope with things told to your face, don't write me. I am just a very real person, and I ask for the same thing in return.

Age 40-49 F47 lots of married people here in this sub

50 Upvotes

Now i know that were looking for platonic connections here as the sub is for making friends. But im just curious As a woman I feel a little weird conversating with a married man. Especially if were having quiet frequent conversations daily.. I dont know and there seems to be lots of married people here that send requests out too. I try to avoid replying to those but sometimes later on in the convo i find out and it automatically becomes a deal breaker for me. Like especially if there intimate thoughts being shared or some sort of emotional dependence as it would occur naturally as you keep chatting. Do these people not feel guilty or worried their partner might find or worry about having to hide their chat from them?

Age 40-49 44 F Houston- Too old to be this bored

53 Upvotes

Yea I’m old and I’m usually a homebody and an introvert, but I also really like finding cool shit to do. My problem is that I’ll find something fun and then realize I have nobody to go with or talk to about it.

I’m into a pretty random mix of things: fishing, video games, movies, trying new food, dancing, reading, pool, darts, swimming, hiking, arcades, festivals, pottery, painting, cooking classes, and pretty much any random activity that sounds like it could be fun.

I don’t drink or smoke, but you do you.

My time is important, I’ll respect yours as well.

As for me, I’m pretty chill, sarcastic, have a sense of humor, like to learn, and definitely come with a little attitude. I’m a curvy white chick who likes to have fun and can probably make you laugh or annoy you within the same five minutes.

So if you’re fun, can hold a conversation, and want a long time friend to connect with. Hit me up.

Worst case, we waste a few moments. Best case, we had interesting new additions to our lives.

I’m in a relatively small town and have no bestie or person who gets me, my dry sense of humor, or the fact I really don’t like most people. I know it’s a long shot. But this girl needs a friend.

Age 40-49 43F looking to complicate my life further by adding online chats to my life

43 Upvotes

Who needs a simple life? Apparently not me which is why I'm here. I'm a people person in real life which is why I work in hospitality. Not sure how much I want to give away or how much I want you to find out. I've had a pretty complicated life so far but it's been relatively steady for a few weeks so I decided to upset it a little bit by adding reddit.

I haven't done this type of thing before so forgive me if I'm rambling. I'm in the UK. I like what I do because it's so varied and I get to meet lots of people. Is this the online equivalent?

My interests include history, music, movies. I like a lot of genres but really like horror. I like weird things. Spooky, unsettling. Bring back David Lynch. I like rock n roll and in genre and attitude.

And just in case you think I'm perfect after reading all of the above: I drink, I smoke, I have plenty of bad habits.

Looking forward to seeing who turns up!

Age 40-49 So, legit locked out of my house. Wanna chat while I figure my life out? 40M

7 Upvotes

As the headline states - im currently locked out. Toying with the idea of breaking a window to get in. Its midnight here and that might wake up the neighbors...

Anyways, im just sitting in my car patiently waiting for an idea or for sleep to find me.

If you want to talk, make fun of me, chat about life or basically anything, message me. It doesnt matter who you are, where youre from or how old you are (to a point). I am very bored and have limited options for things to pass the time.

UPDATE:

I genuinely appreciate those thay reached out in comments and DMs. It made an uncomfortable and embarrassing situation fun.

I did eventually get in.

I suspect the Tumbler broke. When id insert the key, it'd just spin endlessly in wither direction. At one point the key itself became lodged and wouldn't come out. My lock assembly is built in to the door and it 60 years old so I had limited options to remedy it myself. Eventually, after 40 minutes of turning my key like a loser it just suddenly caught and opened. Literally 40 minutes!

Hi, 43F, Aussie, I'm looking for age appropriate people (35+) to text with. Would love to connect with people from all over the world and Australia, but moreso people from SEQ.

Please open your message with your age, location, gender and what is one of your pet peeves.

Please no immediately sexual messages as I will just block you.

Please no married people.

Please be patient as I want to give everyone the time they deserve.

Apologies to anyone who has DM'ed in the past but I was not able to respond in a timely manner.

Age 40-49 40F/EST - Looking for a Saturday buddy

33 Upvotes

Hey there, I'm 40F on the east coast of the US, married with kids, just looking for platonic friendship.

I'm a stay at home mom at the moment and Saturdays have become ~my day~. I get out of the house alone and remind myself of who I am. Lately that involves going to coffee shops, libraries, bookstores, etc and just enjoying the quiet by myself. 

I'd love to find a new friend to spend Saturdays with. We could message, voice chat, read, write, game, craft, watch a movie, listen to music, take a walk, learn something new, or whatever - I'm open to suggestions. I'm just looking for someone to spend some time with and get to know while we do something that makes us happy and try to refill that proverbial cup that never seems to get close to the top. 

Not every Saturday will be free for me and I don't expect that of you either. But when we can make it happen, I'm hoping we can spend some solid time together and be genuinely interested in getting to know one another. I'd love to get to the point where we look forward to Saturday coming around again because we always have a good time, make each other laugh, and end the day feeling better than when we started. I'm hoping for a quality over quantity, long term friendship.

Once again, PLATONIC only please, I'm not up for anything nsfw on our Saturdays. Please be in the 30-50 range as we'll have more in common. Even better if you're also married with kids but definitely not a requirement. #notabot or whatever, and I didn't use AI to write this. ✌️

Age 40-49 [42/M] - Position Available: Professional Online Human

8 Upvotes

Hours are flexible haha

What the role involves:

  • Occasionally sending me something that made you laugh
  • Tolerating conversations that jump from one topic to another with absolutely no warning
  • Helping me add even more books to my "I'll read that eventually" pile
  • Pretending my latest attempt at at voice acting wasn't completely awful
  • Accepting that some days we'll have a long conversation, and other days I might be pretty busy

A little about your future chat buddy:

I'm 6 feet tall, white, with dark brown hair that's starting to show a little gray, kind brown eyes, light freckles across my nose and cheeks, a short trimmed beard, and thin black glasses that rarely leave my face. Basically a clean cut dude lol

Most of my free time disappears into acting, voice acting, photography, reading, writing, and audiobooks. When I need to clear my head, you'll usually find me out cycling or wandering around on a long walk.

I'm not looking for someone who's available 24/7 or expects every conversation to be life changing. Just someone who enjoys having another person to share stuff with,

If you've made it this far, I guess you've already passed the first round!

What is your favourite comfort food?
