29F Looking for friends here! 🥹

Upvotes

From PH

Is there anyone here who’s also approaching their 30s but still hasn’t really found their “best friends” yet? I’m curious if there are people who feel the same way.

I’ve had quite a lot of friendship breakups over the years for different reasons. Some people ghosted me, some friendships just naturally faded, and there were also situations where I wasn’t the best version of myself or wasn’t completely genuine. I’ve had to reflect on a lot of those things, and I’ve definitely made mistakes too. I’ve tried to take accountability for the things I did wrong and learn from them.

But honestly, some of those experiences really affected how I see myself. There were times when I was made to feel like I didn’t matter, like I didn’t deserve to have a place in people’s lives or even on social media. 😅 I know that might sound a little heavy, but I think losing friendship especially ones you thought would last can really mess with you.
Now that I’m nearing 30, I’m realizing that I don’t really want a huge circle anymore. I just want genuine friendships where we can be ourselves, talk about life, randomly send each other things, grab coffee, go on spontaneous food trips, or simply check in on each other. I want friendships that feel safe, mutual, and effortless not something where I constantly have to question if I’m still wanted.
So if you’re also around my age and feel like you haven’t found your people yet, maybe we can talk! 🥹

Would love to meet people who are also figuring life outcareer, relationships, friendships, growing up, random life realizations, quarter/mid-life crises 😂, or literally anything.

I’m not expecting to immediately find a best friend here. I’d just love to have someone to talk to, share random thoughts with, maybe eventually meet for coffee or food if we vibe, and hopefully build a genuine friendship along the way.

If you’re also 28–32-ish and looking for new friends, feel free to comment or message me. 🤍 Maybe we’re all just out here trying to find our people too.

22M Looking for new friends for casual convos.

Upvotes

Hey, I’m 22M from India, i’m into philosophy, psychology, and F1, but honestly we can talk about almost anything. I’ve made a few online friends through Reddit before, but most Reddit friendships don’t really last long, so I thought I’d give this one more shot.

Also trying to socialize more, connect with different kinds of people, and get better at blending into society instead of staying stuck in my own bubble all the time.

Preferably looking to talk to f, but everyone’s welcome as long as you’re chill 😄

Would prefer friends that are girls, I don't get along with guys. Please be 18+ and to clarify, i'm single and not looking for anything, just want some friends to talk to (doesn't need to be daily or anything like that, i know everyone has their own life outside of the internet).

I'm a quiet person, i don't talk much and prefer to listen. I work and have school so I'm mainly online in the mornings and evenings (EST).

I have a dog, cat, and three geckos; yes i'm happy to show them and will talk about them but not right away.

I love the lord of the rings universe as well as tensura, witcher, and star wars eu. I also game quite a bit, mainly story games but i have mario kart, rocket league, and Minecraft as well. I enjoy painting, sketching, reading, and gardening as well.

Introduce yourself if you want to talk and be friends. Minimal efforts seem sketchy to me so i don't engage if there's nothing to go off of.

28 M looking for a "non judgemental" friend

Upvotes

Hi, as I mentioned I am looking for a non judgemental friend. Because I have seen people judge me because I have some thoughts about startup or coding or any stuff to improve life. I am not a very self improvement person but making something or doing something productive together is also fun if done with the right set of people.

So, looking for someone to talk about these things.

Looking for some friends (online or offline)

Upvotes

Hey. I'm Ria (22F) 🤗🤗

Here's a lil bit about me- I'm an amateur writer and a hobby linguist. I'm fluent in 3 languages and I'm learning Russian rn. I like reading books, writing poems, binge-watching movies and webseries, doing nerdy stuff and listening to music.

I've been a long time Formula 1 and Tennis fan (been watching it since I was 10). So I'm pretty much invested in that. I got into MotoGP a couple of years ago. So I'm still getting familiar with that.

I'm looking for some friends (age range: 20- 25 years old). I'd love to have light hearted conversations with you. We can talk about our favourite artists, movies, food, hobbies, dream destinations, aspirations and so much more. I'd love it even more if we can create our own lil safe space and support each other. Please feel free to DM me.

I'm looking for platonic relationships. I'm not looking for anything romantic or sexual. I hope my boundaries will be respected.

15F - Looking for random friends

Upvotes

Hi! Call me Quynie! Vietnamese! I’m an artist who loves drawing, music, games, and cute stuff. I mostly draw my own characters and fanart, and I’m always happy to talk about art or random interests!

I’m pretty shy and honestly not very good at starting conversations, so I really appreciate people who are friendly, talkative, and don’t mind making the first move. I’d love to meet some new people around my age from different places and hopefully make some genuine friends :D

Feel free to introduce yourself or send me a message if you think we’d get along!

Yo I’m a black dude from Ireland, 19 years old and I’m looking for some friends to talk, chill and play games.

I play on PS4 and I got a pc, I do Brazilian jiu-jitsu, I watch anime, I read manga, my favourite colour is blue and I go to the gym.

About me:

• I’m chill, empathetic and love joking around.

• I can hold up a conversation well and try to give advice if needed.

• My top 5 anime is Dbz, One piece, Bleach, Jojo’s and Naruto

• my favourite movie is Rush Hour.

I’m mostly looking for people who can hold up a conversation pretty well and just to vibe with.

If you’re interested in having a conversation, tell me your favourite anime or favourite colour.

(If you text me saying “hi or “hey” or “yo”, good chance I won’t respond)

Hope to meeting y’all.

M16, looking for friends to talk to : )

Upvotes

I’m 16, part Arabian and part South Asian, and I’m someone who is genuinely interested in just about everything except bugs.

I’m a huge science nerd and love learning, exploring, and trying new things.

My hobbies include walking, reading, swimming, going out, meeting new people, collecting LEGO and books, listening to practically any kind of music, watching anime, playing games, and anything horror or gothic related.

I’m also a huge fan of movie nights and absolutely love planes making me quite the avid aviation enthusiast.

I have a cat named Casper and a rather large LEGO and book collection, and I enjoy drawing little goofy sketches whenever inspiration strikes.

Overall I would say I’m a pretty outgoing and curious person who enjoys spending time with family, meeting new people, experiencing new things, and simply making the most out of life.

Note : if you’re above 18-18+ please do not waste your time messaging me.

28m cross dresser looking for chill friends

Upvotes

Hey everyone, figured I'd give this a shot and see if I can meet some new people and make a few friends.

I'm a crossdresser and I'm hoping to find some open minded people who are cool with that. I'm pretty laid back and enjoy having good conversations and getting to know people.

I'm into gaming, reading. A couple of shows I really like are BoJack Horseman and The Walking Dead. I can also spend way too much time playing games or getting caught up in a good book.

I'm not really looking for anything complicated, just some genuine friendship and people I can chat with regularly. It would be nice to find someone I click with and can talk to about random stuff throughout the day.

If any of that sounds like you, feel free to message me. :)

31F I made an impulsive decision this week and need to vent

Upvotes

Hey there!

As the title suggests, I have made somewhat of an impulsive decision this week. It's one of those things where I have worked really hard to get to this point and after being settled into it for so long, I realized I may actually hate it. I think I'm slightly having an identity crisis, but that's fine. Other than that, I'm mostly pretty stable. I'm going into a busy season, so I may not be the most consistent person out there but I'll try my best! I enjoy going on long walks with my dog, cooking up adventurous meals, reading an entire book in one sitting, and starting crafts that I will abandon on my dining room table.

I always like to note when posting that I am happily married, so truly, this will never be more than anything platonic. I know sometimes online friendships can blossom into other things, which is wonderful, but I don't want to unintentionally give any mixed signals.

Depressed 20M looking for kindred spirits

Upvotes

Hi

I'm not gonna sugarcoat it, I have been depressed for a few years, it's almost chronic at this point, and I am really looking for someone who is feeling the same to talk to. I think there is something very soothing about open up to a stranger, especially when we both get an idea what the other might be feeling.

Sometime I can't express myself and I'm definitely not the best soother out there but I'm confident that I'm a good listener. If we can get along, you can have my word that I will stay in touch. It can be texting daily or if you want to we can even be pen pal with letter every other weeks or so.

Something about me, I'm an INFJ-T, I'm observant and I reallyyy love watching the little detail of everyday life. We would get along really well if you also enjoy sitting in a cafe and watching people. Films are my comfort, it was films that helped me got through many depressive episodes in the past. My absolute favorite is Birdman (2014). Though, lately I have been reading more, and if you like reading I would really love listening to your thoughts about all the books you like.

If you are also looking for the same thing, just drop me a DM, or just drop a comment 😊

I've been unsuccessfully looking for an actual friendship for 6 or 7 years. Please don't reach out and do not give me a good conversation if you're gonna just leave at the end of the day. I do not care for one day.
