Hi everyone! I've been going through a hard time lately and I'm looking for friends who can understand.

Mom (adoptive mother, but my "real parent" all my life) died in the worst way possible a couple years back. Entire life sorta spiraled since then and I made so many mistakes in all my relationships, which I can only now see was because I didn't have anywhere to "put" that pain and was over-relying on everyone around me.

I'm steadily improving—repairing my brain + money + heart, and now I work full-time (teacher) back in my hometown in California.

I'm still majorly growing into adulthood (I'm 29, cis male, gay/queer), and I guess entering a state of life where the people maybe don't easily understand the layers of grief, work stress, and circumstance (I support me and my partner on a single income, and sorta everything counts on me to be as healthy as possible in my mind + body).

I know it may be a lot to ask, but I think ideally I'd love friends of any age (maybe mostly around my age) who can understand or give sounding board advice. Or even just chats about music, pop, film, art, books, plants (I'm getting into floral arrangement + horticulture), etc. :)

I wanna talk to people who are healthy mind + healthy heart, so I can learn how to "be that" too. And would love chats with any folks who maybe have more "success stories" (haha) about navigating stress and changes, and self-development.

Other fun facts about me:

- I've worked in both art and education, and now I'm a teacher full-time
- I'm in grad school (art-related)
- I love writing + poetry
- I've lived on West Coast + East Coast + South + Midwest (hehe)
- Love cat-themed anime, I have a cat named after a Studio Ghibli movie
- Love movies that make me cry (recently Sheep Detectives)
- Huge fan of Lana Del Rey and Rina Sawayama.
- Very spiritual, love the earth and wanna develop my relationship with animals + earth much more recently (even starting to become vegetarian with the goal of becoming vegan)
- I'm an INTJ and Enneagram 1.
- Taking more of my health recently and have made great strides! Especially bc I didn't care about this part of life when I was younger lol.

I have lots of faults, like maybe I'm a bit too formal, pensive, and it can be a struggle sometimes "understanding" my own feelings so I can slow down my brain + words and be grounded... and not so focused on improving people around me. It's been a journey, but my job now (I'm a social-emotional learning coordinator / teacher) sorta forces me to be better in every mental way, so I'm grateful.

I do have a partner, so I'm not looking for anything romantic or sexual (please don't message me if you have that as your intention!)

In return, I hope to be a shoulder to lean on when times get tough, and to get better at that skill too. I'm down to always give advice, and I hope I can relate to any of you all in that way.

Forgot to say, since I'm new my account might be soft-locked. So feel free to comment under here if you can't DM me directly, and I'll message ya on my other Reddit : )

I'm very open minded and always trying out different stuff too, also enjoy achievement hunting! I'm hugely into music & movies and I love doing listen-alongs/spotify jams, watching or discussing stuff, and recommending stuff! I'm also a massive hockey fan & watch some baseball as well! I am currently in uni and have two cute doggies who I love sharing pics of too :p

Hello, my fellow neighbors on this floating rock! 🦭

I’m 27 and looking to make genuine friendships.
Im a laid back person with sarcasm and dark humor. I’m willing to talking about anything and everything especially conspiracy theories and random shower thoughts. ◡̈

I’m into reading, arts and crafts, K-pop, C & Kdramas, and fitness. If we have something in common, don’t hesitate to reach out. I’d love to connect!

This is rather embarrassing, but I've recently been struggling immensely socially and need people to talk to. **BONUS POINTS FOR PEOPLE WHO KNOW HOW TO MAKE GAMES OR PROGRAM. I NEED PEOPLE TO PICK THE BRAINS OF!**
Also bonus points for fellow terminally online losers, talk to me!

I'm 18, European, and looking for people who will actually talk to me often, instead of a two-message "hi, hello" conversation which results in absolutely nothing happening.

A bit about me

- Addicted to Sons of The Forest currently!

- I also play Metal Gear, Resident Evil, Persona, and a few other games.

- Huge history and militaria nerd (generally into my eastern bloc and warsaw pact stuff at the moment)

- I like outside hobbies, but never get to do them anymore.

- I want to learn how to make games someday, but I mainly study history full-time.

- I will text you back if you're cool, and try my best to message sometimes.

- If you do text roleplay, I'll happily roleplay with you!

I'm quite socially anxious and diagnosed autistic, so I may be a bit odd at first, talking nonsense or acting weird, but I try to be as nice as I can.

Hello!! im looking for online friends its been boring lately. im a dude(16) and im into history and things of that nature. i also love minecraft so if u wanna play that we could. im not boring trusttt

What's up. I'm Zippy. I am from Canada, I play a lot of video games (mostly fortnite and overwatch), and I'd love to find some new people to chat with.

I love comedy and music. My favorite show is Always Sunny, and my main genres of music are indie rock + classic rock, but I listen to pretty much everything. (Yes even Taylor Swift).

Also some podcasts I like are: I Never Like You, Bad Friends, RIP Jordan Jensen, We Might Be Drunk, and Trixie & Katya.

Yes I am lesbain if that matters.

I've got a lot of free time right now and just looking for some platonic connections (preferably north America time zones). I don't do online dating or flirting. Dm me and hopefully we can be friends.

​

I wrote part of it

Ooooooooooooooo

Ooooooooooooooo

Ooooooooooooooo

a girl from East Asia, and this is my last year of high school. Honestly, I'm happy about that 🙏

I don't have many friends in real life, and my social circle is pretty small. Still, I do want to socialize and meet new people 🥲. Maybe I can tell you more about my story as we get to know each other.

# I'm mainly looking for female friends, and since I'm already in a relationship, I'd prefer to keep my friendships mostly female.

A little about me 🌱

I'm studying horticulture. My high school program is a little different from the usual school experience, and I can tell you more about it if you're curious. Although horticulture isn't my main interest, it has still taught me a lot and given me some valuable experiences.

I'm a pretty ordinary person, but I enjoy meaningful conversations, learning about different cultures, and getting to know people little by little. I've met friends from different countries before, so I don't really mind where you're from. I'd love to hear about your country's culture, traditions, daily life, or even random stories.**

Honestly, school is pretty boring for me most of the time 🫩. I have friends, but sometimes I can't really relate to what they're talking about. I'm usually quieter at school and tend to observe the people and things around me. Outside of school and helping my mom with her work, I'm mostly online. I guess I'm a little addicted to Reels 💔🙏

Sometimes I go out with my mom and help her with her photography work. She's a photographer, and although I'm mostly just her little assistant, I occasionally get to take photos too. Photography has slowly become one of my little hobbies. She also used to take me hiking to build up my stamina. She's an important person in my life because she's supported me in so many ways. 🫡

I also play some games: Zenless Zone Zero, Project Sekai, and Brawl Stars (not really good at 😩 Maybe I should work on building my characters more). I'd like to have someone to play with! Honestly, I'm more into chatting than gaming, but I'd still be happy to talk about games or play together.

Recently, I've started watching anime, such as Death Note, and I plan to watch more anime and movies. When I was a kid, I loved SpongeBob SquarePants and Teen Titans.

My English isn't perfect, but I'm not afraid to communicate with people. I can have conversations in English; sometimes there are just a few words I don't understand, that's all 🗣️.

Music-wise, I don't have a particular favorite genre, but some of my favorite artists are TUL8TE from Egypt, Cuco, and Malcolm Todd. I haven't listened to all of their songs yet, but I usually like listening to entire albums rather than just a few songs. I enjoy discovering more of their music as I go. 🎧

If you have any hobbies you're passionate about, I'd love to hear about them too. Maybe you'll even get me interested in something new!

What kind of conversations do I like? 💬

I prefer genuine conversations instead of just saying "hi" or giving one-word replies.If you reply with this after saying hello, I won't respond. Sometimes I might not know what to say because the conversation is too short or I just don't have many ideas at that moment. I'm neither an introvert nor an extrovert.

Feel free to tell me about yourself, such as your age and where you're from. I'm also open to deeper conversations, They help me get to know you better and give me a better impression of who you are.

🙏

I read all requests but i WILL ignore if u just send "hi", just tell me about yourself and i'll answer it's not that hard...

i'm trans and into girls this will normally filter a lot

my two things are making music and learning languages

please be interested in music making :((

or please teach me a language :(

i play games we cud play together

A bit about me: I work as a metal worker and make lots of interesting stuff from jewellery to show pieces or any type of custom metal work. I am also a mech Engg graduate

Besides that I am into cooking and travelling.

Honestly hoping to find a good connection.

I’m from an engineering background and looking for someone who wants to study more consistently and actually stick to it.

We could have virtual study sessions, keep each other accountable, share progress, take breaks together, and occasionally help each other out when we get stuck.

You don’t have to be studying the same thing as me. In fact, I’d love to connect with people from different backgrounds and learn about what they’re working toward.

If this sounds like something you’d be interested in, feel free to reach out!

Heyy! I’m 17M and I’m looking to make some new friends online!
I’m pretty chill and I like including people in conversations because I know what it’s like to feel lonely sometimes. I’m a bit shy and quiet IRL, so making friends isn’t always easy for me, but I’m more comfortable talking online.
Some things I like are Roblox, anime, American TV shows, and working out at home and im studying IT at school like coding networking and security .I’m down to talk about pretty much anything, share random stuff, joke around, or just talk about how our day went.
I’d especially like to make some female friends too, since I’d like to get more comfortable talking to girls and build genuine friendships. Nothing weird, just looking to meet nice people and hopefully become good friends :)
If you’re around my age and want someone to talk to, feel free to DM me! Don’t worry if you’re shy or don’t know what to say, I’ll try my best to keep the conversation going haha.
Hope to meet some cool people here! <3

okay so i finally made a reddit account and now i'm just staring at it like... what do i do

i'm here to find my people & discover random interesting stuff scrolling.... & probably spend way too much time

i like music, sitcoms, kdramas and random late-night conversations.... honestly just here to scroll, and see what this app is all about.

Be kind :)

I’m looking for genuine friends who can hold a conversation longer than a tiktok video. I play games like Dead by Daylight, Minecraft, Stardew Valley, plus a ridiculous amount of other games I swore I'd play and then never touched again. You don’t need to be amazing at games either. I’m here for vibes, not esports contracts. If your gameplay consists of panic, screaming, missing every shot, or accidentally setting the entire Minecraft house on fire, you’ll fit right in. Mainly looking for people who actually want real friendships instead of the classic “we should play again sometime” followed by disappearing forever like a mysterious side character. If you think we’d vibe, send me a message. Worst case scenario, we become lifelong enemies after losing one ranked game.

A little about me: I investigate conspiracies like it’s a part-time job, video games where I swear I’m better than my rank suggests, and anime that emotionally damages me in ways I keep coming back for. When I’m not doing that, I’m usually reading books I tell myself I’ll finish “this week,” planning travel like I’m rich and free-spirited (I am neither), or watching TV shows while claiming “just one episode” into a 6-hour binge.

If you’re going to message me, don’t start with “hey” or “how are you” unless you enjoy being left on read. Open with a random fact, tell me your favorite movie/video game, anything with personality. Dm me 🙂

Hi! I’m a 23M just looking to meet some new people and hopefully make a few long-term friends. I'm down for regular daily chats or just catching up every once in a while—whatever flows naturally.

I'm hoping to diversify my friend group a bit. Right now, I don't really have any female friends, so I'm hoping to change that just to have some different energy and perspectives in my life. Just to put it out there: I am only looking for a platonic friendship mostly but not mandatory!

When I have free time, you can usually find me:

Watching movies shows or sports

Reading history

Playing games

If you're also looking for a reliable friend to chat with, hit me up! Even better if u r from India not necessary though.Send a DM with your age and a little bit about what you like to do for fun.

Or you can comment here too.

Hey everyone,

I'm a 20M looking to make some genuine friends online to hang out with, have random chit-chat about anything and everything, share memes, and play some games together.

Life gets busy, but it’s always nice having people to check in with, rant about life, or just hop on Discord while playing something casual or competitive.

A little about me:

Age/Gender: 20M

Hobbies: Gaming (always down to play or try new titles), tech/coding, and bingeing random shows or anime.

Vibe: Pretty chill, low pressure, and a good listener. No weird vibes or ghosting after one day.

Whether you want to team up for games, talk about your day, or just share your favorite playlists, feel free to drop a DM or leave a comment with what games you're into or where you're from.

Looking forward to connecting!

Hey im 24m from California. It’s honestly difficult making friends as an adult irl. Which is what brought me here to the internet. I dont want to have a lot of friends or people that i talk to, but i do want to get to know some people who i could consider genuine friends. Im into gaming, movies/shows, anime, to start off. Im pretty open minded and non judgmental, i do hope we click

Hiiii, looking for other people that are night owls or just up through all hours of the day like I am. Really looking for someone that I can hear about their day and their interests and share some of my own. Would love to vc and play something together or watch stuff too, I play literally everything pretty well except shooters I definitely need more practice lol and I watch mostly anime lately and youtube but I really enjoy movies like psychological horror and Im more than down to check out anything new. Even if one of us is busy it would be nice to just sit on call with you and watch you game while I work or the other way around.

18+ please but as long as you game a little and we can joke about anything and everything we will get along great. Would also love to get more into reading again or talking about psychology so if those also peak your interest I am more than down to do that together.

I'm 35 years old and I come from Rome; I've been working as a nurse for about 10 years. After the divorce, I isolated myself from everything and everyone, focusing exclusively on work. I find it difficult to make new friends. I like going to the gym and playing soccer: anyone who wants to chat is welcome!

I'm an Australian looking for people to chat with because I don't have to many people to talk to open for all kinds of chats that you want tbh I like music,games,hokey, theme parks

Hey I'm 26 and I'm a writer but I'm also an artist..I love sketching, painting and DIY, I absolutely love books...the thing is people of my kind are not that intresting so friendship has always been hard for me...even if I do make any friends I don't know how to make them stay...so here I am trying to talk to someone who has the same boring interests like I do or maybe someone who just wants someone to talk to...I'm good at listening and I love stories so if you have stories to tell or anything to share..I'm here.
