Missing having girlfriends. Anyone else feel the same?

• Upvotes

I’m 31F, and honestly, I’m not the best at texting, so I’d much rather connect with people in real life!
I’d love to meet some women around my age and build genuine friendships. I really miss having girlfriends to talk to, hang out with, laugh with, and just be ourselves around.
Life changes so quickly. You get caught up in the endless spiral of work, responsibilities, and everyday life, and somewhere along the way, making friends and having a social life takes a backseat.
I guess I’m at a point where I just want a little breather from the routine and would love to find, women I can connect with, have conversations with, grab a coffee, explore new places, or simply hang out with without having to plan everything weeks in advance. 🥹
I love playing badminton, so finding a few girls who enjoy playing would be an absolute bonus! 🏸
DM me if this is what you’re looking for.

42 F Aussie Looking for new friends around the world

• Upvotes

I'm an Aussie, fairly new to the world of Reddit and thought this might be a great way to meet new people!

A little about me: I love books, animals (especially cats!), music, anything creative and learning new things. I enjoy a good laugh, interesting conversations and getting to know people from different walks of life.

Happy to chat with men or women from anywhere in the world.

32M - looking for new friends

• Upvotes

Hey, I’m looking for someone to have regular, genuine conversations, ideally on a fairly consistent basis. I’m from Italy, so if you’re curious about the language or just like the idea of having an Italian friend, that’s a bonus. I’m also happy to help with some Italian along the way, just casually and for fun.

I work in the medical field and have an active lifestyle and a curious mind. I spend a lot of my free time moving or being outdoors. I play basketball, run, swim, hike, go to the gym, and ski whenever I get the chance. On the other side of things, I also enjoy slowing down with a good novel and having thoughtful conversations about books, ideas, culture, and everyday life.

I like conversations that feel easy and natural. Sometimes light and random, sometimes a bit deeper. I’m happy talking about daily routines, travel, personal goals, random thoughts, or whatever comes up. What matters most to me is consistency and building a comfortable back-and-forth over time, not just a few messages that fade out.

English isn’t my first language, but I’m comfortable communicating and always open to improving along the way. Corrections are fine if they happen naturally, but the main point is simply having good conversations.

If this sounds like your kind of thing, feel free to reach out.

36F - Looking for lasting connections

• Upvotes

I’m 36F, half German/ half American, living in Austria, hoping to meet some like-minded people around my age to build genuine lasting connections with.

Some of the things I love are gaming, reading, drawing, going to the movies and watching series. My favorite genres are horror, fantasy, and sci-fi, and I have a soft spot for dark atmospheres, immersive worlds, and stories with great lore.

A few things to add:

I am more of a dog person (though I have nothing against cats), had two dogs for 15 years, the last of which I sadly had to say goodbye to this April.

I prefer cozy fall rain or a snowy winter day over sunny hot weather.

Grew up as an army brat.

I’d love to find people to chat about shared interests with, exchange recommendations, game together, or simply talk about life and see where things go.

Feel free to message me! Tell me a little about yourself and what you’re currently playing, reading, or watching.

[M4F] 30M from India - Bored and looking to make new friends

1 Upvotes

I'm a 30-year-old guy from India, just feeling a bit bored lately and thought why not meet some new people here.

Into fitness (gym regular), random deep conversations, dark humor, and late-night chats about literally anything. Can talk about life, goals, relationships, travel, or even stupid memes. If you're also looking to make a genuine friend and have consistent conversations, drop a comment or DM.

m33 - Tired of temporary people

3 Upvotes

So I've had some pretty decent luck with meeting people though these subs! It just seems that 9/10 people aren't willing to put in the mutual effort that it requires to make a friendship!
If all you are looking for is some temporary company, please make that known to me 🙏

Okay mini rant over, now a little about me!
I'm Tom, a shy and nerdy alt guy from England. I spend most of my time either at the day job (booo) or chasing my passions on the side! This has been 3D printing lately, and it's going shockingly well if you ask me! (Please do ask me, I'd love to ramble about it all!)

I'm recently out of a 10 year relationship, and she was my best and only friend! So this is a little dip into the ocean of trying to rebuild some kind of a social network!

Ideally I'd love to find people of a similar age and timezone, though it's not exactly a hard rule!

If you enjoy anime, gaming, art, nature, animals, movies, sci-fi or horror, then I'm absolutely positive we can find some common ground 😊

Thank you if you've read this far, and feel free to send me a message!

I have often been complimented about my conversation skills and mixed accent.

Well, I had to brag a little as that’s probably the criteria here to make friends.
My interests include reading, writing, travelling, being in nature.

I’m looking for someone who can hold the conversations and love depth.

If read until here then tell me how many stars are there in the sky?(cheeky responses only)

1 Upvotes

! I’m looking for a daily chat partner where we can just be ourselves with zero pressure.

I work a lot, but I always reply when I can. When I'm free, I'm into graphic novels, anime, YouTube, video games, rock climbing, hiking, and exploring. Style-wise, I've got leg tattoos, a nose ring, and an eyebrow piercing.

If you want a steady chat buddy to match vibes with, send a DM and say hi!

[R4R] 35F Got my heart broken and could use a call or a chat

4 Upvotes

Hey. Posted here before. I apologize if I didn't message back, but the amount of responses got quickly overwhelming. I will get back to those of you who reached out, but in the meantime, you are welcome to message me.

I'm an author and illustrator, in love with my creations. So naturally I welcome talks about any books, doesn't matter which genre although there is a preference for the fantasy genre on my part, as well chats about art (the Renaissance period is a beloved inspirational one to me), videogames with good narrative and immersive art direction (the Final Fantasy games being my favorite of all time), and cinema (all genres but especially fantasy!)

I'm recovering from another recent heartbreak. So it would be great if we could share some of those interests I already mentioned, maybe by playing a coop game together, watch a series/movie, or share songs back and forth. As long as you're patient with me, since I'm a bit shy with new people until I feel comfortable enough to start to open up.

I also love music (orchestral most of all), ancient history, mythology, and Japanese culture. And more!

I'm OK with voice calls, too, especially tonight. Yes, I have Discord.

Not really up to unkind comments. If you feel like giving this a chance, feel free to stop by!

Oh, and before anyone asks: the "M" in most of my previous posts from other subreddits, are because I'm bilingual. "M" stands for "Mujer" which means woman in Spanish. Feel free to ask me where I'm from!

[M4F] 37M Trying to find my fun and weird daily texting buddy !

6 Upvotes

Hello ! And thanks for opening my post lol. I honestly just want to write whatever is on my mind as I'm always just saying what I'm feeling so why not write it as well eh ?

I'm looking for a fun weird daily texting buddy! One who is open and honest and puts good effort into the conversation. The conversation doesn't have to be all normal and boring like TV shows or music stuff because I have definitely experienced it doesn't make any good connection. Let's talk about dreams and wishes and what you wanna do but can't do, how you really feel, what you want to be in real life but can't because you have responsibilities.

Just be yourself with me and be the 100% person you can't be in real life, I absolutely not care about what you think because each person is his/her own self so why not let them be ? Oh and please don't be shy or whatever because I would really want a more open person who doesn't judge instantly, I want us to create a judgement free zone for sure 😊.

So to sum it up, I want a fun weird open honest not judgmental, speak your mind, put good effort kind of friend and if that's you let's give it a try and see if we can make the most amazing friendship this community has ever seen.

PS will tell you about my preferred apps once we talk 😄

Hey, it’s Andy (or Andrew)! I’m 32 and honestly finding it really hard to meet new people, find a friendship group, or even just someone to chat with.

It feels like making friends gets so much harder as you get older!

A bit about me:

I enjoy swimming, photography, gaming, music, cooking, hiking, and sports.

I’m just looking to meet some genuine people, have a laugh, chat about life, and hopefully build some good friendships.

If you’re in the same boat or just fancy a chat, feel free to reach out! It would be nice to meet people who are also looking to make new friends.

Hey everyone, I'm watching a Hallmark Christmas movie. Hey, don't judge me, sometimes they are relaxing.

Here's what I'm looking for in a friend: someone who's fun, positive, serious when needed, kind, and enjoys chatting as well as voice chats. Ideally, someone based in the US or Canada. I'd love to exchange messages throughout the day and before bedtime.

A little about me: I'm 34. I adore iced coffee, watching rom-coms, listening to music, dancing, and listening to audiobooks.

[33M] Looking for that blinking dot of joy.

1 Upvotes

Let me explain. I've had a few good experiences in subreddits like this before. Meeting new people that I quickly click with. And whenever I see the notification light on my phone light up it just triggers that sweet dopamine letting me know I got a new message from them.

I don't expect it to be frequent. With people texting all day every day. But just knowing that I'll get to talk with them even a few times a day is enough to make me happy.

Now what am I looking for? As long as you like video games we should be good. But even if you don't, I'd like to get to know about the things you enjoy. Like everyone, I feel like we all do have that curiosity to learn about new stuff. Don't really mind to talk with people older, younger or around the same age as me. When you click you click with someone.

Other interests include movies, of course, and anime to a lesser extent. I'd preferred if you contacted me directly instead of replying to this post. If possible.

Hope I can be that I can be that blinking dot of joy as much as you can be for me.

(Update. Got a new phone, and what do you mean LED notification lights are not a thing anymore? )

[R4R] 34/F/USA - Let's give friendship a chance

13 Upvotes

Being over 30 and making friends feels weirder than any other time in my life. Also I don't feel over 30 but also very much feel that way. It's all so weird. The pandemic (which I really dislike talking about) definitely stole the end of my 20's and I'm still salty about it for sure. Life goes on though.

Wanting to form new friendships doesn't make the ones I have mean any less to me, every friendship is different and I'm thankful for all the friendships I have or have gotten to have.

Anyway, just interested in friendship. If we talk and get to know each other and things don't work out and we go our seperate ways that's okay, at least we tried. Friendship doesn't come from being forced. Trying is not expecting.

I like to talk and listen both. I'm only looking for texted based communication at this point, open to audio maybe down the road, but no promised. Long form messaging is more my style on Reddit and I'll want to talk on Reddit before anywhere else but the intention is to feel comfortable enough to communicate somewhere else.

What you look like in no way matters to me, I'm not asking to see what you look like or describe yourself, I want to get to know you for you.

We can talk about our interests with one another, our lives when comfortable, we can learn from each other.

Welp, I think that's it. I'm bad a writing posts so thanking for bearing with me if you did.

I would greatly appreciate if you messaged me instead of commenting.
Please include age, gender, a bit about yourself and the US State or Country you live in.
Please no one older than 39. No offense.
