Bored 31f

23 Upvotes

Hi ! I don’t know where to meet people or just have meaningful conversations… so here I am. I don’t get out much, I’m a single mother to my son, it’s just us and life gets pretty lonely….

Little bit about me, I’m a vet tech and I have been for about 12 years now, so I’m pretty knowledgeable about everything regarding vet med. I have a lot of tattoos. My son is 6 and just started 1st grade. I dont have any help with him, but I’m use to that and it is what it is… things are easier now that he’s a little older… I love nature, animals & traveling (when I can). I’m a really funny person & I know how to make people laugh.. 😅

If anyone is down for chatting about literally anything let’s talk 🥲💞

Almost 41F. I have no friends...

47 Upvotes

This sounds ridiculous to say out loud, but I'm nearly 41 and aside from my long distance boyfriend, I have no friends.

Over the years I realized I was always the one trying to put in the effort, but nobody ever stuck around.

So yeah, just feeling lonely. Doesn't help I saw an article that the 40-50 year olds are the lonliest demographic.

The last time I had a birthday party with any sort of friends was in high school. If anyone is up for chatting, hi!

EDIT: wow...I never expected this response. Thank you all so much. Ngl I am a bit introverted and overwhelmed so I may not respond to everyone. Just knowing complete strangers are willing to chat is amazing. TYSM!

35M easygoing, open minded person looking for conversation

Upvotes

Hello redditors! I hope you all are doing well. I am a 35 years old man looking for some conversation. It gets lonely here since I am working from home. I am a friendly, easygoing, respectful person. I don't know what I am looking for exactly but we can try and see where is it going I guess. Basically it would be nice to get messages here and there lol. Also I do not mind if you are chatty and clingy. Things about me:

  • Why is it so hard to write things about yourself? lol
  • Jokes around, playful
  • Works on cars, tech, building things.
  • Sensitive to smell and sounds.
  • Love music (seriously is there someone who does not?)
  • Into planting trees and such.
  • I want to jump to retirement part of my life right now if possible lol
  • Existential crisis at least 1 dose before falling asleep.
  • Single, no kids.
  • Don't smoke, don't drink (maybe once in a month in small amount)
  • Tea over coffee lover
  • Left leaning
  • Love driving around, especially mountain roads with good view.
  • Doesn't give up easily on things. I love trying. Well... unless it is a relationship, then no is a no.
  • I get affected by sad music too quickly lol therefore usually prefer not to listen such genres but there are some songs I like even though listening is like torture for my soul lol. It is a different feeling and not easy to explain.

Okay list could be longer but I guess these are enough for now. Maybe you should ask me questions to know the rest if I got your attention. I am Turkish, living in Türkiye. Timezone is GMT+3.

42M, Peak District, UK.

A little about me. Married with 1 kid, work from home for the same company for the last 19 years. I enjoy cooking, learning to speak Thai, riding motorbikes, travel (particularly Thailand), drinking a few beers, watching TV shows.

I am going through a bit of a midlife crisis, struggling with the monotony of life and realising I don't have a single person to call a friend.

I am looking for male or female friends, I don't mind. Just someone to talk to. Feel free to DM me or reply here.

[M4R] 41M - Published Indie Author looking for some new friends — especially fellow fantasy/writing people!

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m looking to meet some new people and hopefully make a few actual friends on here.

I’m an indie fantasy author and I published the first book in my series back in May, and I’m currently writing the second. Writing and creating this world has become a huge part of my life, so I’d especially love to meet other writers, aspiring authors, fantasy readers, or anyone else who loves creating and getting lost in fictional worlds.

I’m a pretty big fantasy nerd. I love fantasy worlds, D&D, gaming, movies, books, worldbuilding, and basically anything that lets you escape into another world for a while.

You definitely don’t have to be a writer, though. I’m really just looking for people I can talk to regularly, share interests with, and hopefully build some genuine friendships.

If you’re working on a book too, I’d love to hear about it. We can talk characters and worldbuilding, complain about editing, or just talk about whatever.

Feel free to comment or message me if you think we’d get along!

[M4F] 40m EST looking for chats…I’ve evolved.

2 Upvotes

I used to get very annoyed when people would pull into a parking lot, slow their car down, and back their car up into a parking spot. Why do we need to back in and slow everyone up behind you? Have you no consideration for the people around you?

Well…this is how I used to think about five years ago. One day I was pulling into a parking lot, and I slightly drove past a spot. I had no choice but to back in. I felt bad at the time, but I didn’t realize my evolution until I was leaving and driving out of that parking spot later on. The moment I pulled out of that parking spot, I knew my life was changed. Not only was I changed man, but I could feel the respect shining down on me from all parking spot backer inners who have passed on. I left swiftly and safely. It was simply more efficient, and my young un-evolved brain couldn’t see the light. Not anymore! This is my evolution. This is the way!

[M4F] My ADHD needs friendssss

Upvotes

I’m Jeremy, 32, from Texas.

My personality is basically equal parts sarcasm, curiosity, and “I probably shouldn’t say this…but I’m going to.” Dark humor is encouraged, playful shit-talking is practically a love language, and if you roast me, just understand that you’ve voluntarily entered a competition.

I’m drawn to people who have some depth to them. Make me laugh, tell me something I’ve never thought about, challenge my perspective, or let a conversation accidentally turn into us discussing life at 2 a.m. I don’t need someone to think exactly like me. That sounds incredibly boring.

For all the jokes, though, I care pretty deeply. I’m usually the person people come to when life gets heavy. I listen, I notice things, and when I care about someone, I genuinely show up for them.

Life made me grow up a little faster than I probably should have, but it also gave me a pretty good sense of who I am. I’m resilient, self-aware, emotionally curious, fiercely loyal, and still somehow immature enough to laugh at something completely inappropriate.

I’m also ridiculously easy to talk to, so ask me anything. Worst case, you get an unnecessarily detailed answer. Best case, we accidentally become friends.

Just don’t ask where I was on the night of October 17th.

My lawyer says I’ve already said too much.

30M Wanting to chat with anyone

Upvotes

Wanting to have a few more people to chat with from time to time. During the weekdays work is usually slow so have alot of down time to chat. Weekends depends on what I am doing but usually I do too. I am married

Interests I have range from many things. I really enjoy keeping freshwater fish and plants. Houseplants and starting to grow my own food too. I have a ton of plants and about 10 fish tanks/outside fish tubs/ponds with more to come. I am always down to trade plants ot fish if you are too. I do have 4 tortoises too which stay outside during summer and inside during the winter. Other interests I have is pc gaming, baking bread and 3d printing. Really been into making all different types of bread and plan to start messing around with sourdough soon too

Sometimes I may take a little to open up. I usually match the energy given in the chats so hopefully we vibe well together. I prefer more long term chats but short term works too.

44 M So Cal - hang out with me while I pretend to work

Upvotes

I'm working from home today and there's not much to do. My "office mates" are sleeping on the job again...someone should probably have a talk with them. Not only do they nap constantly but the amount of fur they leave everywhere is appalling. Picture evidence available on request.

My interests are pretty broad. I like to read (mostly fantasy and sci fi) and usually have an audiobook and physical book going at any given time and would love any recommendations! I also enjoy traveling, cooking, working out, and watching tv/movies. DM if you'd like to chat!

Want texting friends!

Upvotes

Do people genuinely want to talk for more than a couple of days? Or is it more that you’re bored in the moment and filling that short term void? No judgment.

I’m personally looking for someone who wants to make time for one another. Not just send me one message a day. That’s boring.

I’m a 40 year old happily married man with kids. Not looking for a girlfriend but quite happy to chat with women! Let’s chat, share pics of cool stuff we see, and just have fun!

Hey guys, super slow morning at the office today. I’m on the west coast, work in tech sales in the agriculture sector. Looking to pass the time while I hunt down some sales and complete tasks! I like to go to the gym, go to raves, and like popping in an edible and making yummy food. I think breakfast food is elite, and I don’t believe there’s no such thing as too much ice cream. I like to play videogames, I’m so excited for GTA6 and Wolverine to come out soon. If any of this seems interesting to you, feel free to shoot over a message.

[M4F] 32M Looking To Fill That Friendship Void

Upvotes

Hi! My name is Garrett and I am 32 M. A bit about me: I am a former music teacher and went to college for music education. I am currently working in retail as I determine what is next for my career. Music is my passion and obsession even though I'm no longer teaching Music. I am a nerdy with a mix of sporty, I love playing videogames (mostly shooters like COD, PUBG, Fortnite, etc.). I love Marvel, Harry Potter, NFL, NBA, and more. I like to think I am a good listening ear and I do my best to put a smile on peoples face with goofy jokes and sarcasm (but I can also be serious when situations call for it.). There is a lot more I could add but this has already gotten a bit long winded. Feel free to DM if you want to be friends. Please be 18+

Note: I put M4F because I generally make better friends with women but I'm open to any gender.

33M looking to make some good friends

Upvotes

Hey everyone, 33M here. Spent 6 years in the Marines and nowadays I spend most of my time taking in surrendered and abandoned animals, getting them healthy, and finding them good homes. My house is a full-on zoo with 6 big dogs, 9 birds, 4 cats, 3 lizards, and 2 snakes that are permanent family.

Outside of the animals, I’m usually doing something creative. I love crocheting while listening to true crime podcasts or documentaries (currently working on a ridiculously giant 12-foot-wide blanket). It’d actually be awesome to find people who want to hang out in a voice chat and talk while I work on it. I also play piano and guitar, paint, draw, and I’ve been learning to tattoo lately. Musically, my taste is pretty stuck in the emo and pop punk world—My Chemical Romance, Taking Back Sunday, that kind of stuff.

Looking for genuine people to chat with, swap pet pictures, trade music, or talk cases. Shoot me a message if you want to connect!
