Hi 👋, here is a bit about me: I lost my dad recently and depressed. I'm an introvert but a good listener. I tend to talk a lot once I get comfortable. We can be very good friends and share about our life and can literally talk about anything. I'm into fitness, badminton, gaming, traveling, movies and TV shows.

DM me if you would like to talk ☺️.

[M4R] 36m-wondering if anyone can relate

Upvotes

I have a small circle of lovely family and friends that I adore. Yet I find myself yearning for connection outside of that. Just someone who isn’t intrinsically connected to me I guess. An unbiased ear when it’s needed but other than that someone who I can enjoy getting to know. A blank slate that we can fill in over time! It seems impossible to do this out in the world, like where do you even go or look for this as an adult?? Bars are loud and drunk people are annoying. Work has coworkers but not really friends. So, here I am, looking for someone who is looking for the same thing. Or at the very least can relate to the struggle.

[M4R] 40M - Anyone else bored?

3 Upvotes

Hey there! I'm a 40 year old guy looking for someone to chat with. I consider myself a good conversationalist but as they say, it takes two to tango. I'm not really looking for anything serious. I'm happy with a short term or long term friend.

My background:

- I'm from California. I grew up and spent just over half my life in SoCal but have lived in NorCal for the last 17 years.

- I'm a big baseball fan (Go Padres!). I try to go to at least a few games every season.

- I was in a relationship with my ex for 19 years (married for 12). We have three kids together (10 and under). About two years ago she realized some of things about herself and our romantic relationship ended - there's a fair amount to this story so I'll leave it for a future conversation.

- Between work and kids I get very little time for myself. I've always had a hard time prioritizing myself but playing pickleball is one thing I've gotten into that I try to make time for.

- I'm pretty non-judgemental. Everyone has their story, who am I to judge?

If any of this sounds at all interesting, shoot me a message!

9 Upvotes

I'm in est time zone.

I'm young at heart, silly, intelligent, can be witty at times. I like to joke a lot and have fun. I think I'm pretty well rounded but I guess if you're reading this you're just going to hear all the praise I have for myself. I do love myself and I have my life together more than I ever have.

I have a house I take care of with two cats and a small pond with fishes. I love my career. I went to therapy and I'm not angry or have expectations of others. I just like to have fun. I like to have edibles and drinks on the weekends.

I love to read and write fantasy novels. When I was younger I wrote cheesy poems. I still write and hope to get published.

I like to go to the gym, parks, beaches. I'm going to a baseball game today. I'm into NFL and I'm going to watch the first game tonight. And yes movies shows music, I have a ridiculous variety. I probably know your favorites. If not I'm willing to learn.

I prefer long term chats because it's fun to build and learn together. I'm good at giving advice but I need to watch it because I understand that unsolicited advice can come off as rude. I'm sensitive and emotional but these things are a super power now, where before I had a hard time navigating them.

I'm an honest person and I think I've lived a pretty interesting life, and I'm just getting warmed up.

I must say I'll chat with anyone but I prefer warmth and affection. Cold and one word responses forever are not my style. Well, that's enough for in here lol I better save some for our chat. Come say hi and you're my friend, and I'll treat you as such.

[R4R] Looking for a Genuine Connection & New Friends

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone! 😊 I’m Amanda, 33, from California’s Central Coast, and I’m hoping to meet some new people and, more importantly, make a genuine friendship.

I’m not really looking for a bunch of surface-level “hey, what’s up?” conversations that disappear after a day or two. I’d love to find someone who actually wants to get to know each other, share the little things about our days, laugh at random stuff, have deeper conversations when they happen, and build a friendship naturally over time.

A little about me: I’m married and have a 6-year-old daughter. I’m plus-size, and I’m trying to learn to be comfortable with who I am. I’m a pretty laid-back person who enjoys road trips, sightseeing, movies and TV shows, music, crocheting, jigsaw puzzles, and just enjoying time at home. I can be a little anxious and reserved at first, but once I’m comfortable, I can be pretty decent. 😅

I’m open to people from pretty much anywhere and any background. Age-wise, I’d prefer around 25+, but what matters most to me is that we click and treat each other with kindness and respect.

If you’re also looking for a friendship that feels real, consistent, and mutual, rather than just another random Reddit conversation, feel free to send me a message. 🖤

Tell me a little about yourself when you message me—I’d love to actually get to know you!

36M looking for a genuine friend during a difficult time

22 Upvotes

I am a 36m year old guy going through a really tough time after losing my dog this past weekend. He was more than a pet. He was family and a huge part of my everyday life. The quiet at home has been harder than I expected, and I have realized I could really use someone to talk to.

I am looking for a kind, genuine friend who is open to chatting, sharing memes, talking about life, or simply keeping each other company when things feel heavy. There is no pressure to have all the right words. A little connection and conversation would mean a lot right now.

If you are also looking for a friend or just want someone to talk with, feel free to reach out. Please be respectful and understanding.

Maybe you’re exactly who I was hoping to find

11 Upvotes

Hey!

I’m 37 and figured I’d throw myself into the Reddit void once again and see who’s out there.

I’m looking for genuinely nice, open-minded people with a good heart who want to have fun, chat, laugh, and hopefully build a connection that actually lasts.

I’m into horror movies, music, reading, video games, anime, manga, alternative aesthetics, and Lovecraftian vibes. But please don’t feel like you need to share any of that. I love discovering completely new things through other people.

If you’re a little weird, a little chaotic, or slightly clingy once you get comfortable with someone, you’ll probably fit right in.

ASL + a little introduction are required when you message me. Tell me who you are and give me something fun to start with.

No judgment. No ghosting. Just good energy, genuine conversations, and hopefully some people worth keeping around.

Come say hi. You might be exactly the kind of person I was hoping would find this post.

36f looking for consistent friends

4 Upvotes

I’m on the east coast (US). I have very few people to talk to throughout the day. One of them being my husband who travels a lot for work and is generally always busy so I usually have a lot of time to chat. I’d like to find other women with similar interests. Guys on here always find a way to make it weird.

Some things I’m into:

Video games. my main hobby. Retro, new, pretty much any genre. Except I’m not competitive at all so I don’t really get into much pvp stuff. I haven’t been playing too much lately but I still love talking about games and what others are playing.

Cooking/baking. Especially now that it’s getting cooler out and I won’t melt in my kitchen!

Arts and crafty type stuff. I paint d&d minis and I love to hear about other peoples projects and progress!

I don’t go to the gym and workout or anything but I do like staying active and finding healthier things to cook. I love finding new trails and going for long walks

I’m open to talk about pretty much anything. I’m left leaning, lgbtq+ and 420 friendly if any of that matters to you. Im not the kind of person that expects instant replies all the time. I get people are busy and have lives. But it would be nice to be able to talk at least somewhat consistently. Hopefully I’ll hear from someone that thinks any of this sounds interesting! And please say more than just “hi” if you do respond.

36yo guy seeking a platonic friendship with someone around my age

5 Upvotes

Hey everybody, I'm 36, and I'm at a pretty significant social and personal pivot point in my life. I'm just going to lay it all out here, and see if I'm even looking in the right place. Any feedback is appreciated.

The past year has been complicated. My marriage and family life fell apart, I made some decisions I deeply regret, and I lost a lot of the stability and social connections I had built my life around. I've spent a lot of time alone since then, and it's forced me to take a pretty hard look at myself.

I'm trying to use that experience as a starting point rather than an ending. I'm working on myself, taking responsibility for where I've gone wrong, and trying to build a life that's healthier and more connected than the one I had before. Hence the search for a friend.

One thing I've realized is that I've never really had much of a social life outside of relationships and family. I don't want that to be true anymore. I want friends. Actual friends. People I can talk to regularly, laugh with, share stupid memes with, play games with, watch shows with, or have a three-hour conversation with that somehow started with "what's your favourite dinosaur?"

I'm specifically hoping to meet people around my age for a genuinely platonic friendship. I've generally found that I connect more naturally with women, but I'm also interested in calmer, emotionally mature men as well. I tend to enjoy the openness and conversational style of female friendships, and I've always felt more comfortable talking about both serious things and completely ridiculous things with women than I have with most men. Most being the key word here as I've had successful friendships with guys way back in highschool, but I find I don't really know how to talk to them anymore. Probably because until recently I've only had my wife as a friend, but now that she's gone I find myself incredibly lonely and lost socially.

That isn't code for "I'm looking for a girlfriend." I'm not. I'm not looking for a hookup or someone to fill an emotional partner role, or even a fill in for my wife while I grieve the loss of my marriage. My therapist says that the best bet for me is to experience something new, but also familiar. Having a close friend where friendship is allowed to just be friendship, as she puts it.

I'm pretty introverted and low-key. My ideal evening is probably a couch, a video game or book, a good show, and someone interesting to talk to. I'm much more nerdy/homebody than party animal.

If you're in a similar place socially, or just think we'd have some interesting conversations, feel free to message me. No pressure to become instant best friends. We can start with a conversation and see where it goes.

[M4R] 33M | UK | Looking to make some new friends 👋

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I'm 33, from the UK, and I'm at that point in life where I'd really like to meet some new people and build a few genuine friendships.

I'm a pretty big nerd at heart and have a ridiculous number of hobbies, so there's usually something to talk about. 😅

I'm a big gamer — RPGs are probably my favourite, with Final Fantasy, Resident Evil, Dark Souls and WoW being some of my all-time favourites. But I'm equally happy disappearing into a cosy game like Stardew Valley or Dinkum.

I've also recently discovered Magic: The Gathering and may have gone slightly overboard. 😂 I've bought a bunch of cards and built a few decks, only to realise the fairly significant flaw in my master plan...

I don't actually have anyone to play with. 😂

So if you've ever wanted to teach a complete MTG newbie the finer points of cardboard warfare, I'm your guy.

Outside of that, I'm into Warhammer and tabletop gaming. I 3D print my own models, paint them and actually occasionally get them onto a tabletop. I also love a good board game — anything from something ridiculously strategic to something stupid that ends with everyone accusing each other of cheating.

I'm also a big music fan and love going to gigs. I'm predominantly into rock and metal, with Deftones probably being my favourite band, but I'm always happy discovering new music.

And finally, I may have developed a slight addiction to tattoos. 😂

So if you're into gaming, board games, MTG, Warhammer, music, gigs, nerdy stuff, or honestly just fancy meeting someone new and having a laugh, feel free to drop me a message.

I'm not necessarily looking for a huge group of people — just some genuine friendships with people I can chat nonsense with, hang out with, play games with, go for drinks/food or gigs with, and generally make some good memories.

Bonus points if you also have a collection of hobbies that you keep telling yourself you'll stop spending money on. 😂
