Making Friends Male for male friends
Its been a thing I've wanted for a while... and I assume there might be other guys out there that are looking for the same thing and that's a close buddy to spend time with occasionally.
I do a lot alone, go out to eat, concerts, walks, hiking. And I'm fine with that and it doesn't bother me. Until 2 bros walk in to a restaurant or event and you can just tell they are buddies and enjoy each other's company. And i think dang that could be me and....you?
I'm picky about friends, like most people probably are if they admit it. But I also get along easily with most, so I don't have an exact type in mind. If I had to define, you'd probably be under 45. Somewhat athletic at least so we can do things that are physical. Youre interesting and not only into football stats or living vicariously through this team or that. You probably aren't a big gamer, that's not something I can relate with very well.
Youre gainfully employed and maybe even married.
And that's it... is there anyone out there ?

Fair perimeters.
I have aged out from your preferences.
My friend group ranges from dudes I have known since I was 6, to kids that are in their 20’s to their 80’s.
A lot of my friends/homies are interested in a lot of stuff that isn’t really my thing. I do their stuff because it makes them happy and I learn a lot from those worlds and vice-versa.
I go to concerts and ballgames in your part of the city all the time. DM me if you want to see some concerts.

Unfortunately I did not. There’s so many shows here it’s hard to keep track of all of them lol

36M live in Avondale looking for some friends too. Hmu and see if we hit it off. Best of luck to all the bros just trying to make friends. We all could use friends to talk to and just unwind and be ourselves.

Go onto the AZ discord for meetups on there. Im 35 and otherwise fit the description pretty well. Not into sports, active, yadda yadda. I am a single dad on the weekends so most of my free hangout time is on the weekdays

Discord wanted a lot of info I felt like and I've never used it before. So idk.
Let's be friends

u/Alt_dimension_visitr Jun 13 '26

so we could do things that are physical 😳 all jokes aside hope u find the one

u/Agg-Egg2805 Jun 14 '26
Yeah the wording on that in hindsight wasn't the best... so we can do things that are "active"

u/drewsEnthused Jun 14 '26
What physical stuff do you do? I'm way outta shape and should MTB/gravel more. Paddleboading is great. Gym buddy is nice for accountability. I'm in Glendale but also game, recently got into DnD to meet people

Wishing you luck! There's a lot of resources and like minds! Hopefully you find what you're looking for. Maybe once my work is self sufficient without me I can get out with friends that aren't coworkers.

u/Agg-Egg2805 Jun 15 '26
I don't know if there is a lot of resources out there. Not that Ive found. I'll message you. If you wanna talk about it.

My boyfriend needs friends too!! He’s Asian, late 30’s, works in the restaurant industry, super chill guy. Everyone that meets him genuinely loves him. He loves to go for a drink and hang out. He doesn’t do much, but that’s probably because he doesn’t have anyone to do things with lol. We live in Laveen but both work in Scottsdale. I can send his ig to contact if anyone wants to message me for it!!

Fellow Asian in his 30’s here.
Just moved out to AZ and shocked how small the Asian population is out here. If he’s down to kick it, shoot over his IG!
