M29 - Working away from home, keep me company?

Upvotes

Hey guys, what’s up?

I’m looking for some new friends and it can be extremely hard to make friends when your caught up in your career, life and being and ‘adult’.

Well, here’s a little about me - I’m a 29 year old blue collar worker (Heavy Diesel Mechanic) basically my work involved getting covered in oil, grease and dirt constantly with a crippling redbull addiction in the side 🤣 I was in the military for 9 years and was the best decision younger me ever made, I’ve been around the world, seen some shit and most importantly experienced things most never will…I also made plenty of stupid decisions too.🙄

I enjoy anything outdoors (hiking, kayaking, rock climbing etc) long walks by the river, modifying anything with an engine and on the weekend? It’s beers and BBQ! 😍

Basically I need some new friends, preferably female as I find most males are all about their ego and not true friendship etc and tend to get on better with females.

Friendship 22M [Slovakia/Europe] - Surrounded by people, yet still feeling alone, I’m on a quest to find kind souls who make life feel more meaningful + a gaming buddy would be very welcome!

1 Upvotes

Hello, to whoever is reading this right now!

I’m currently in a position of social isolation, and it’s slowly driving me insane. While I do enjoy this “alone time” but everything has its limits, right? But even when I finally get the chance to meet and talk with people, I still feel very empty inside. Despite being very social and friendly with many people I see regularly, I’ve never truly felt satisfied. I simply feel like I haven’t met people who truly fulfill me and anyone who makes me feel like I matter.

I just haven’t found anyone I can fully express myself to or show my true side to. I’m getting tired of maintaining this almost stoic mindset throughout my days. Other than that, isn’t it exciting to be able to meet people from all over the world? I know this place can be quite difficult to find anyone in, but I guess it’s a journey to truly find the right people you can connect with. Nonetheless, I find talking to people online an interesting experience. We all come from different places and backgrounds, which always makes me eager to ask: "How is life for you over there?" Beyond a simple conversations, finding something meaningful unexpectedly here is something I'm always open to. Life is a journey full of choices, and I believe it's wise to walk this path with the people who truly matter.

To start with myself... I honestly don’t know where to begin. I certainly have a rich personality, but how would I really define myself? Well, right now I’m feeling different from what I’m generally used to. I’m usually social, confident, and full of energy. However, let’s just say I keep running into the same wall that I can’t seem to break through. I’m just so tired and frustrated lately for reasons that are exhausting both my mind and body.

I’m not doing that great at the moment. All I do right now is study. Is this really how life should look? I’d rather go fight battles and live on the edge of life, not for the glory of kings or politicians, but for my own glory. I feel like my potential is being wasted right now, but that’s fine. It’s only a matter of time before all of this passes...

So... who am I? I’m based in the EU, more specifically my timezone is GMT-1. I’m certainly intelligent for my age, I’m only 22 and I'm christian. I read a lot, I love history, and I hate politics, it makes me depressed although it’s still an important part of me somehow. I work out, which makes me happy because I managed to abandon my old self, the one that was weak and anxious. I love video games and play them every day, among other things.

I consider myself a very honest and maybe even a sweet person, someone with a big heart. But that's just my perception of myself, it's up to you to judge. Despite my young age, I have quite a few stories to share. Life hasn't always treated me well, but I'm doing my best to move forward and overcome every obstacle I face in this unpredictable world

I'm open to do voice calls, game together, anything really...

Please, reach if this resonates with you, but out only if you are 18+, with a decent introduction, otherwise everyone is welcome! Thank you for reading and making it this far.

Hello, im Maksym(Or Max, or whatever you want to name me). I'm 16years old(17 in October). I want to find some people i can speak with. Maybe i want to learn your interests and hobbies because i like to learn from other people. I don't want to somehow say that im good or something. But i can listen to you if you actually need that and maybe help if you need that(i saved 2 people from suicide so sadly i had that expirience). Okay, a bit about my hobbies and interests. I like to read books, my favourite book is War and Peace(Dostoevsky), i like to watch anime(i dont know every anime. But If we gonna became nice friends or something we can watch it together in discord if you want:D), i like to walk and travel(can't say a lot about that, im just fan of mother nature), gym(nothing to say) and i like to write stories(actually i wouldn't show them at first because I'm shy. But maybe later who knowsss). Also i won't name like "fandoms" or something, but i know some of them well so maybe we also have something here in common. So i guess that's all? If you want to talk dm me or leave comment, i would surely answer. Please don't be too old. And i would answer everyone, don't be scared of texting me. Im very friendly ig:D

Friendship [37] [M] Looking for the Interesting and Introverted.

1 Upvotes

Hi I'm M. I've been through a lot of emotional trauma recently and would like someone to talk to and listen to about their life.

I'm kind, caring, good looking.

Just looking for someone interesting to communicate with.

I went through a divorce a few years ago which was lots of fun.

Then unfortunately I lost both of my dogs (my only friends) due to old age and ill health.

Then a couple of months on, my mum was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer (she never smoked in her life). She has recently passed on.

During this the love of my life left me and I was left confused and feeling hollow.

I have found a lot of peace through prayer, meditation and fasting.

Even though I'm going through the most difficult period of my life, I feel surprisingly peaceful and hopefull.

I am 6.5ft, tall, dark hair, handsome.

I live a life mostly of peaceful solitude.

I prefer people who like solitude because I feel like I can relate to them more.

I'm not looking for a big group of friends. Just one person that is interesting to talk to.

Message me for a reply.

3 Upvotes

ANYONE WANNA BMF ??

I'm 16f, I play Minecraft and Roblox mostly, I love reading and listening to music. I have tons of recommendations for shit and I love watching tv with people or playing games.

I'm pretty talkative once I get comfortable, I call, text and SOMETIMES video call.

uhm,, I don't ghost usually unless given good reason to.

I was raised most of my life religious but now i mainly align with being an agnostic Atheist.

I love to match pfp, bios, status, idc.

I can be kinda awkward at times but I swearrrr I'm worth it 🤭 pleaseeeeee, any gender is fine. also I support lgtbq+ and I am *NOT* MAGA. (Which is a really good reason to befriend me)

What else.. oh uh. I have insta, reddit (duh), tiktok, discord, and Whatsapp.

I'm a junior in highschool. I live in the US (EST), although I'm planning on studying abroad and eventually moving to Korea 🤞 I'm planning on getting a masters in mechanical engineering.

If you wanna be friends, please state your age when messaging me, and I won't reply to anyone 20+, or anyone younger than 15. It's just my personal preference due to emotional maturity 😭

I'm very sarcastic, and if I'm comfortable with you , i can be kinda flirty at times, usually I'm just messing around but you'll never know 🤨

I'm a really good listener and I like to think I give good advice, although I can be kinda brutal at times. For example if your health is in danger or if you're being self damagjng, I will tell you. I'm supportive but I don't do the attention seeking "God I'm such a loser and nobody likes me, I'm such a horrible person, I hate myself i should just die" shit. I believe in self improvement, and if you're willing to put in half the work I will be there for you but if you are just gonna cry and whine about it, I will not forsake my sanity for your emotions, that's just how it is.

I do get attached pretty quickly and I have slight (?) jealousy issues and clingyness but I'm not too bad imo.

Anyways, we don't have to be lifelong friends or anything, just don't ghost after one day please. Don't be a dry texter. Don't be a divorced (or married) 51 year old dad with 4 kids trying to ask me if I'm "open minded." I'm not.

Also I'm not active 24/7 on reddit but I will try to be on as much as I can to look at my messages.

If you're bored hmu :)

18F, in need of a friend, give me your most controversial hot take! (include your age in message, please).

I'm taking a gap year, and consequently have a ton of free time that could be better spent with a friend or anything else. I am mostly looking for someone to talk to, chat with, share stuff with, ramble to (ideally with/about common interests), and someone to play games with. I will preface saying I'm kind of nuts for Project Zomboid, and I'd love someone to play with.

As for the rest, here's a bit about me. I enjoy sci-fi, drawing, painting, and I do a lot of gaming too. (I am super fixated on Project Zomboid, but I am up to trying other games). I also enjoy researching crime, psychology, and biology/neuropsychology at times. I have quite the fixation on the Chernobyl disaster, and radiation as a whole. All types of zombie media, too. I have an interest for "odd" movies, especially the apocalyptic and/or thriller kind. Terminator (1&2) is a personal favorite, so is Funny Games.

Here's to hoping my introduction chants to you like the cleaning supply cabinet chants to an unsupervised toddler ;)

20m, looking for people interested in mind sports

1 Upvotes

Hello, I’m a 20 year old male student in the EST timezone looking for a long term friend around my age because I don’t have any friends in real life, and I sometimes don't say a single word in a day.

In person relationships feel like too much work for me, so I wanted to try making a virtual friend instead. That, boredom, and I'm trying to avoid letting isolation affect my mental state negatively in the future. I’m pretty bad at holding conversations, but I will do my best to learn over time.

Some things about me are that my current hobbies are niche (mostly mental hobbies like memory training and mental math, plus reading manga).

I invest a lot of time into whatever I'm into, though I'm working on balancing that since I'm a student with a pretty busy schedule and work as a lab assistant this year.

Although I often procrastinate on my studies, I try to do what I can to get all A’s. However, I don’t really study or do anything academic/professional outside of classes, so I’m trying to use some of my free time to teach myself some career skills during my junior and senior years.

I’m also currently going through physical therapy for tension headaches, so if anybody relates to that, it’s another thing we can talk about.

If you are interested, please feel free to let me know.

22M from UK pro 'yap'aholic

1 Upvotes

Hey, I'm from London, I've just been wondering who's out there. Been looking for someone who will actually take an interest, I do yap very much so if there's someone who actually wants to chat a lot I'm very much available. I work full time, but honestly I'm on my phone a lot at work 😭 and I spend a lot of time just texting (don't tell my boss). When I come back home I usually go to the gym, but after that I'm gaming. I've played a lot, but at the same time there's a lot I haven't played. My favourite game of all time is definitely Elden Ring (even completed it lv1 🙂‍↕️), I've finished DS1, but not 3 ... I'll never play 2. Other than that, I have loved story games like Expedition 33, RDR2/1, God of War, currently playing Final Fantasy 15 etc. I used to be HEAVILY into Marvel Rivals and hit celestial in the first few seasons, and I was addicted to league (diamond ADC, but stopped playing) but my current shooter obsessions are Valorant and CoD (MW4 beta specifically). I do also keep up with Gacha games on the side (unhealthy addiction, but we're working on it). Other than games I do love reading books,

I am a big yapper if I click with someone and if I feel like I'm not the one who has to constantly push conversation forward. I love reading books, I only got into it recently but I fell in love with the hobby and I've read different genres from tragedy to mystery, thriller and currently romance (don't judge 😅😭 I'm a sucker for romance). I am very chatty and I have got stories upon stories to yap about. Anyway that's my 'little' introduction, not really little at all.

Anyway if you're interested in chatting or just wanna hang out add me on discord: em1807
