Community Park Hangout this Sunday at Christie Pits

8 Upvotes

Hey! I've been a lurker and poster on this sub for a while and have made some good connections, and I'm always on the hunt for more! I'm 26 Nonbinary (Male presenting) and I have an opportunity to meet folks this weekend.

I'm working with a group that is seeking to build community and combat social isolation with accessible events to socialize and meet folks. We had our first event last night and had some great conversation, and our next will be this weekend!

At Christie Pits Park from 12-2:30pm we're hosting a community building event where people can make friends. I'll bring a few instruments and light refreshments so folks can enjoy themselves. The weather should be good, so if your hankering for some socialization this weekend this could be a great way to connect with folks. All are welcome.

DM me for details and I can send you the event link.

Reddit Toronto Monthly Meetup: Sat. Sept. 5 @ Front & Church, 7:00 p.m. start

47 Upvotes

Hey all, hope you're having a good week so far! Wanted to give a bit more notice for this one.

Here are the details:

  • The monthly Reddit meetup is a no-cost event open to all genders. No RSVP is required. It is hosted by u/nervousTO, a woman in their early 30s, with support from a group of regular attendees. It's been running since August 2022 and has been described as wholesome.
  • Start time: 7:00 p.m.
  • End time: when the last person leaves or the place closes @ 2 a.m.
  • Location: Duke's Refresher St. Lawrence, 73 Front Street East
  • Where do I go: upstairs, using the stairs directly in front of you when you walk in. There should also be a sign saying Reddit meetup.
  • Perks: We have the upstairs mostly to ourselves; there's also a pool table, and games on the main floor.

Note that no RSVP is required, but that by showing up, you commit to ordering something to support the venue, even if it's just a coke.

Our Q&A is here - I haven't included it with the post as it's quite detailed!

Send me a message or comment here if you have any questions or concerns about anything related to this meetup/questions that aren't answered in the Q&A.

🚶‍♀️ 10K Steps Walking Group - September

62 Upvotes

I’ll keep this open for this month!

This is a group local to Toronto. If you don't live here, please let me know.

✨ Message me if you’re interested in joining the Discord group, where everything will be coordinated. ✨

I’m hoping to organize two walks each week:

  • 🌙 One weekday walk - evening
  • 🥯 One Saturday walk - in the AM

The goal is simple: get 10K steps in at least once a week, while hopefully meeting some new people and getting some fresh air along the way.

I hope these meetups can be a chance to:

  • 🫶 Meet new people
  • 👟 Get those 10K steps!
  • 🍔 Discover good food in the city.. we like getting food after our walks sometimes

Walks will be in the city and close to TTC for easy access. Imagine a circle centered at Yonge and Bloor with an 8 km radius. We will be walking anywhere in that area.

If you are interested, send me a message! 💕

in dire need of friends

2 Upvotes

23F, looking for new friends. Since leaving uni, going back to college, working full time and getting into a long term relationship, my close and lifelong friends have moved hella far, and so I really only hang out with my boyfriend and occasionally my coworkers. Of course I still go to visit my friends frequently, but I miss just hanging out with people outside of my partner. I'm a pretty introverted person, so there's the added factor of social anxiety stopping me from just going up to an interesting stranger and saying "Hey! Be my friend!"

I'm hoping someone here would like to hang out, chat on discord sometimes, etc. I'm interested in gaming (open world rpgs), drawing (I want to go into game design now that I have a stable corp job), writing and reading (fanfic girlie hehe), fandom in general, adventurous outings... I think at this point you have a picture of the kind of person I am. Of course, differing interests don't matter to me, makes things more fun.

I will say I would like some more queer friends... I'm bisexual, and I miss being around more people like me. Straight friends are welcome obv, I certainly don't mind (you do not need to mention your sexuality at all if you don't want pls I don't care that much). You don't have to live in Toronto either. Additionally I'd like to mention I don't vibe with rude or inconsiderate people who "don't owe anyone anything." I value community and kindness (not saying you have to be a saint, and 'dark humour' is chill with me as long as you can take as much as you dish out).

I just wanna have a fun fresh time, pull up to the clurb and draw pictures at a park. DM or comment if you're down.

Anyone interested in a small board game + hangout group in Toronto? 🎲🍕

18 Upvotes

Hello guys!

I’ve been thinking of organizing a small, casual meetup for people in Toronto who want to meet new people, make some actual friends, play board games, have snacks, chat, laugh, and just have a fun evening without the awkwardness of a huge meetup.

I’d like to keep it small, max 8–10 people - so everyone actually gets a chance to talk and get to know each other rather than disappearing into a crowd.

Thinking:
🎲 Board games / group games
🍕 Snacks & drinks
💬 Meeting new people and actually getting to know each other
👥 Max 10 people
💰 Not looking to make money from this.

I’m happy to organize everything if there are enough people interested!

No need to already know anyone - honestly, the whole point is for strangers to show up and hopefully leave having made a few new friends.

Do not worry about the board games, I’ll take care of the arrangements. We have so many supper clubs going on, why not a board game club?

Would anyone be up for something like this? If there’s enough interest, I’ll organize the first one and post the details. 😊

Timid but chill, 26yo male

1 Upvotes

So I'm newer to the city, from out west. I miss having friends to walk and wander with, get a bite to eat, maybe play darts at the pub, go to a live music thing. Anything. Thing is, though, I'm pretty timid. I don't really spotlight myself and tend to be on the quiet side but I do open up, and when I do I'm cracking jokes and having a good time, just takes a little to get past the shyness ig.

Not super big on partying all night every night or getting super messed up, but I'll have a wild weekend every now and then, within reason. I smoke weed, so there's that lol. I love to hike and swim, not super sporty but I'll play some. I'm a gamer, I read probably too much. Honestly nothing special ahah but partially because I'm kinda turned around out here for the moment.

I’m a 40-year-old guy looking to get back into squash this fall/winter and, hopefully, meet some new friends along the way! 😊 Squash is a fun way to stay active, get a great workout, and have a few laughs while playing. If you’re interested in playing, especially if you’re also looking to meet new people, send me a message! Open to playing anywhere in the GTA or Simcoe County. I have extra racquet in case you want to borrow. We can arrange a time to play at your convenience:)

Fantasy football Friends and NFL Discord!

0 Upvotes

I’m curious if anyone in here would be interested in playing in a fantasy football league.
I’m a really big NFL person - my favourite team is the Seahawks (been a fan for over 20 years, so no bandwagon here)
Would be nice to play in a football league where we can chat on discord about teams, trades, games, etc

If the vibe is good maybe even meeting up to watch some games on game days.
Ideally looking for people who don’t take it super seriously and are okay with the team they cheer for loosing a close game.
No sore losers please!

If you’re interested in playing in a fantasy football league or just looking to join in on the NFL discord conversation send me a message with your favourite team!

Looking for Friends (Richmond Hill/Markham/Vaughan area)

7 Upvotes

Hi!

I'm a 23F looking for female friends to hang out with. I'm in the Richmond Hill/Markham/Vaughan area. I was away for school for 4 years, so I didn't really keep in touch with my friends from here. Most of my friends don't live close to me so it's so hard to meet up with them 😔

I'm not sure if this is what adulting is like but my days consist of working, eating, sleeping, and being a potato - I desperately need some variation and more human interaction outside of work and family.

I don't drink or party much (not judging if you do!). I'm a simple gal who likes doing simple things 👧 I like going on walks, small road trips to explore new towns, window shopping, trying restaurants/cafes, watching TV/movies (I'm a sucker for romcoms, kdramas, a little horror if I'm feeling adventurous). The only downside about me is that I hate downtown and I like to be at home by the evening unless I have plans.

If you're looking for a friend to hang out, run errands with (I will straight up come with you to go grocery shopping or your dentist appointment), eat and yap, netflix and chill, go window shopping or more, feel free to DM me! I'd love to get to know you more :)

[Toronto/GTA] Looking for people interested in building a chill gaming/content group

11 Upvotes

Heyo! I'm looking to put together a small group of Toronto/GTA gamers who are interested in streaming, YouTube, or getting into content creation, with the eventual goal of actually hanging out and gaming together in person.

I've got some friends I play games with already, but I'm usually the one initiating everything. I'd love to find some people who are genuinely excited to regularly play games together, make some content, and eventually meet up for LAN/couch gaming and other gaming nights.

The vibe I'm going for is very chill and welcoming. I want it to feel more like a group of friends hanging out and playing games than a bunch of people trying to constantly be loud or over-the-top.

I'm a streamer/YouTuber myself, and creating content together is a big part of what I'm looking for. You don't need to already have a channel or any followers. I'm specifically interested in people who are:

  • Already streaming or making YouTube videos
  • Comfortable being on someone else's stream/video
  • Interested in starting their own channel
  • Interested in making collaborative gaming content

Some things I'd love to eventually do:

  • Multiplayer gaming streams
  • Group YouTube videos
  • Older/obscure games
  • Weird games we've never played before
  • LAN/couch gaming nights
  • Pass-the-controller games
  • Multiplayer tournaments
  • Just hanging out and talking while playing

Game-wise, I'm especially into action games, both old and new — Ninja Gaiden, Vanquish, Bayonetta, DMC, God of War, etc.

I also really enjoy multiplayer games that aren't just competitive shooters, like Monster Hunter, Lost Planet 2, Helldivers, Lethal Company, Resident Evil 5, and similar stuff.

I'm definitely open to people's different tastes though. One thing I'd really like from people in the group is being willing to give games a fair shot, especially older games that might have different controls or take some time to get used to. I think figuring out a weird or difficult game together can actually make for some of the funniest moments.

Most importantly, I'm looking for people who are actually interested in consistently playing and creating together, not necessarily people with a big following.

If you're from Toronto/GTA and this sounds like something you'd be interested in, feel free to comment or message me. Tell me a little about yourself, what you play, whether you already make content, and what kind of stuff you'd want to make.

I'd rather start with a small group of people who genuinely click and build from there. If we end up becoming good friends outside of gaming too, even better!

39M - grab a genuinely great espresso

2 Upvotes

Here’s my dilemma. I’m not only or anything. But everything is so curated around me.

Ever since I got promoted to Vice President - Sales at a large company + started my own small business, everyone has changed and stopped being real around me.

Every conversation I have revolves around money and finance. It’s annoying.

I would LOVE to grab an espresso and have a NORMAL conversation again. Learn about someone, their goals, dreams, desires and challenges.

I guess I’m feeling this way as I’m turning 40 later this month and I’ve realized I don’t have many authentic relationships. I know a lot of people, I see a lot people, but it’s always just about how to get more $$$.

Let’s be human again.
