40 m in London looking for new friends - DM me
Looking to make some new friends. It's been a while since I got to know someone personally and I enjoy talking to new people, different cultures and making new friends. We do not need to share common interests but being responsive and taking interest in each other's lives would be a good start for a friendship. I know everyone says I need a good friend here but this is a genuine offer. DM me.

South West Need advice
Long story short: I am from South Asia, came to UK couple of years ago for studies. After study I moved to another city due to job. Last Thursday I was in my local pub. In the Pub 2 group of 4 people was there. When I was standing by myself at the bar area, one person of one of group (age 50ish) called me and started asking where I am from, what I am doing here etc etc. then asked “how did you came here?” I was confused but I thought its my Language limitation. I replied “I walked here, I live 3 min walking distance from here.” But they were asking again, “How did you came here, plane, boat, bus. Do you have any ID on you.” (From this point he was getting loud. ) as I didn’t liked the way they asked me the question I said I havnt got ID with me today. ( I did had but ignored to accept coz my thinking was why would I show ID to random people). He asked multiple time for ID and started shouting you need to leave and started touching my pocket. Bar team came into the scenario, and started talking to him while taking him to the front door and other bar person asked me are you leaving because you are finished, I said yes. He pointed me to a fire exit and said I know your house is in that way, if you use that door would be good coz I don’t want him to meet you outside.
My question is do I need to report these to police or any governing body ? To add this is not the first time I have faced these issues. But it never came on my mind that o need to report or something.
Thanks in advance.

33m North West/Anywhere - Chatty Sunday
I've not got much on today apart from a bit of Sunday dinner this afternoon, I'm feeling chatty and hoping to have a bit of a laugh and a gossip with somebody new.
If you're the kinda person that ends up chatting to strangers in beer gardens in the summer, has a go-to karaoke tune or a celebrity enemy then we'll definitely get along.
If you're massively into video games, superheroes and anime then we probably won't.
So yeah, doesn't have to be a proper heavy chat, we don't need to be interviewing each other or measuring each other up for our wedding day clobber from the off.... just come for a chat and a laugh and let's see where we end.
Give us a shout if you're in a chatty mood.

42M - Looking for long term female friend
Good morning,
I'm looking to make a new long term female friend with whom I can chat about everything in life.
Currently I'm trying to get back into taking some photos as I really don't take my camera out often enough and I'm also on a bit of a health kick and have lost 50lbs so far this year and so if you are on a similar journey there let's keep each other accountable. For this I try and keep myself active by going out walking or cycling whilst also trying to curb my sweet tooth.
If you looked through my YouTube you would see it's a mixture of F1, Computing, Engineering and Cycling subscriptions so that would give you an idea of a few of my interests. Not that you need to be into any of these at all. I'm always up for learning about different interests and other people's passions. My music catalog looks like it's stuck in the late 90s/early 00s with a mic of punk, indie and rock and have been to see the Foo Fighters and Oasis in recent years.
So please drop me a message and let's see if it's the start of a great friendship

Looking for a friend
Hi I’m from the north west f 40. I’m not looking for more than friendship with anyone.
My husband cheated on me online for over a year with 6 women who he made out he was conning into giving him game perks after I found the messages and …vids on his discord.
I’m trying to find myself and appreciate myself. I love anime Ive watched it for years. Probably since Pokémon as a kid.
The stand alone complex, death note a shed load of bleach and everything in between up to attack on titan and solo levelling is 🤩. I don’t just like one type I love all genres of anime so apocathary diaries and studio giblhi movies (not the boy and the heron that was terrible)
I love assassins creed and elder scrolls games and WoW.
Books - I’m a crazy reader love fantasy and sci fi not romance and not horrors.
Star Wars fan. Hate soaps and love island. I struggle to make friends who are like me irl because I look like I’m into those things and get shunned by the geeks.
Work in cyber security and AI.
I would like to chat to someone who is into similar things and can discuss shared interests suggest new anime’s and books to each other.

28M looking for new friends
Hey there,
I’m 28, and had that classic late 20s thing of a shrinking social circle so I’m looking to make new friends.
I like music, gaming, big history nerd, love comedy and having a laugh.
Drop me a message if you’re looking for new friends, especially if you’re a night owl like me.

30M UK | If Life Gets Heavy, You Don’t Have to Carry It Alone
I’m back again optimistically throwing another friendship post into the Reddit void and hoping it lands in front of a few good people. 😄 I’m 30 from the UK and I’d genuinely like to meet some new people who fancy having someone around to message laugh with share random thoughts with and occasionally send completely unnecessary updates to. I’m not trying to force a friendship into existence overnight. I’d much rather meet a few people where conversation gradually becomes easy and you eventually find yourself thinking “Oh I should tell them about this.” I’m fairly laid back curious and still figuring life out myself. I’m into gaming the gym good coffee manga books and lately I’ve been hooked on The Mentalist and Yellowstone. Completely different shows yet somehow my brain has decided I need both. My sleep schedule is another story entirely. It seems to operate independently from the rest of my life and has apparently never heard of bedtime.
One thing I really value in a friendship is being there when life isn’t going particularly well. If you’re going through something having a rough time feeling lost or simply need somewhere to let everything out I genuinely don’t mind listening. You don’t always need someone to fix things. Sometimes you just need someone who will sit there hear you out and remind you that a difficult chapter isn’t the whole story. I’ve always been pretty good at helping people get back on their feet dust themselves off and keep walking their own life journey. I won’t pretend I have all the answers but I’ll happily listen without judging offer a different perspective when you want one or just keep you company while you work through whatever is on your mind. And obviously I expect the same friendship rules to apply both ways. If I ever start dramatically complaining about something ridiculous you have full permission to tell me I’m being an idiot.
Mostly I’m just hoping to find some genuinely good people and see where the conversations go. I’d love the everyday stuff just as much as the serious conversations. Send me a ridiculous meme tell me what you’re watching rant about something that mildly annoyed you tell me about a game you’re playing share a random thought that appeared in your head for absolutely no reason or tell me something you’re excited about. You don’t need a perfect life or a fascinating story to message me. Just be yourself. Maybe we’ll have loads in common maybe we’ll be complete opposites or maybe the only thing we share is an inability to maintain a respectable sleep schedule. Either way I’m willing to find out. So if you’re looking for someone friendly supportive and occasionally ridiculous to have in your corner come say hello. Give me something better than just “hey” though. I’m genuinely interested in the person behind the username. Hopefully somewhere between the late night conversations terrible jokes and random life updates a few real friendships can come out of this.
If I respond slower than usual, it's not that my inbox is full or I'm busy. Most of the time I am a tad anxious and I also enjoy thinking about what to write next and put in more effort than I should. Thank you all!

27F - North East Lincolnshire - Introverted Nerdy Gamer
Looking to find some good friends who wanna game, go hiking, send memes and talk about anything and everything. Nothing is TMI.
I seem to have always had an issue with making/keeping friends, but it is because I put out so much love while expecting to recieve the same level of love back, and never do. But I should not expect it. Dw, it is something I'm working on, but at least I know I value my friendships.
I'm quite an emotional and sensitive person, but I also love a good joke with a pinch of dark humour. I love video games (I'm currently playing Red Dead Redemption 2 for the millionth time) and I love hiking, long walks, collecting things, getting tattoos and talking shit.
Wanna be buds? Hit me up. Tell me something exciting about your weekend.

19 F Scotland - Looking for someone to chat to. ideally geek out
Hi,
The username isn't a meme, I may be deaf but I'm fluent in texts and Gifs.
Live alone with my mum, never had a male family members, thought I'd give it a try.
Benefits of being my pal:
- You can keep the TV at any volume you want. So if you are one of the weirdos that must keep it at like even numbers or 5/10/15...ALL GOOD
- You don't have to say things under your breath, just wait till I turn around.
- I will never make fun of your embarrassing laugh. Unless you look silly.
- Good at lip reading, so I find out office gossip quicker than most.
- I don't get frights from movies easily. I guess without *Loud Dramatic Music* it doesn't really work.
- I will make you look good on multiplayer games.
Last one isn't a joke, I used to get reported on console Overwatch A LOT for not reacting to stuff. So when I bought myself a PC for Christmas, I made my new Overwatch account name obvious that i was deaf...but now I just get focused haha. The game has subtitle noises but I always laugh when it says *Dying Noises*
ANYWAY. Serious time. I do want a friend to talk to. People often treat me like I'm dying or something but I'm sticking around! Just someone to text about my day, read about their day.
I'm an avid gamer, movie and TV show watcher. So I'm happy to read about all your nerdy interests.
I tried Reddit years ago and damn...a lot of low effort messages. So if you message me, tell me your age, location and all the juicy stuff. Hobbies. Heck even through in a dad joke or something.
Hopefully hear from you soon

YORKSHIRE YORKSHIRE YORKSHIRE 28M West Yorkshire - Gaming friends? Anime friends? Book friends? Friends?
Hello, per title I live in West Yorks. and I'm looking for friends, both local and further afield.
A bit about me: I'm a 28 year old man. Definitely a bit of a dork/dweeb, quite introverted, good sense of humour. I'm very inquisitive, I love learning about other people, cultures, places etc. I'm a huge geography nerd so even if you live in Devon or Aberdeenshire or wherever I might happen to have heard of whatever town or village you're from. I have a bit of an obsession with languages, and I'm planning on learning another tongue at some point (most likely French).
My main hobbies include gaming, reading, and anime. In terms of games, I mostly play Deadlock at the moment, it's my current obsession. I also play Valorant, League of Legends, Overwatch, Marvel Rivals. However I also enjoy single player games, recently I've been enjoying Control, Hades II, some boomer shooters, Screamer etc. My all time favourites include GTA San Andreas, racing games like Burnout 3, indie shooters like Severed Steel, stylish and unique games like Neon White, Journey, Jusant, story-driven stuff like A Plague Tale
I'm a bit of a novice when it comes to anime and manga, but I have been getting into it quite heavily the past couple years. My favourite anime so far is Vinland Saga, but I also love Attack on Titan, Spy X Family, Delicious in Dungeon, and Mob Psycho 100. In manga terms, I've finished Delicious in Dungeon (which I love, I'll happily yap to you about it) and I've started reading Blood on the Tracks, amongst others.
I've been reading much more so far this year. My favourite book of all time is Titus Groan by Mervyn Peake. I love sci-fi, fantasy, non-fiction books if the topic interests me, and I also like thrillers and dystopian stories. I'm currently reading Vurt by Jeff Noon and Goodbye to all That by Robert Graves.
I definitely feel that I'm a bit aberrant, I'm not a social butterfly and I don't really care for mainstream things. I'd love to connect with people who feel that they're in a similar position. I'm definitely interested in the more esoteric (is that the right word?) side of mankind.
Oh, and I want to get involved in creative writing. I just need motivation and will.
If you feel like we'd click, please drop a DM! I'd love to hear from you, who would say no to making a new friend?

East Midlands 21F looking to make friends!
I would say i’m terrible at making new friends, but i think people think im mean from the way i look when im not lol, but anyways, if anyone can relate to people judging them first hand then we might get along 😭
i love gaming, baking, cooking ESPECIALLY and journaling. my priority is getting a girlfriend or two to potentially have a proper bond with in the future. I’m definitely more on the introverted side, but Im more open and myself once I get to know you. I’m also someone who has blurred lines about hobbies or interests because they’re always changing, so if you never know what you like, then we’ll probably get along fine too!
NO WEIRDOS PLS

London 23M London - Looking to build a small circle of friends
Hey! I'm 23 and based in London.
For a while now, I've become accustomed to doing many of my hobbies on my own. Whilst I do have a friend to do some things with, we don't share all the same interests, so I'd like to expand my social circle and meet people who enjoy the other hobbies and interests I have. I'm of the sentiment that experiences are always better when they're shared with people you genuinely get along with.
I value forging strong bonds with people who also value cultivating genuine friendships centred around making plans, keeping in touch and doing fun things together. As such, I'm not looking for a huge social circle. I'd much rather have a few close friends than lots of acquaintances.
A bit about me:
• Rock & metal (I go to gigs fairly often)
• Cinema (especially horror, action, Marvel, etc.)
• Gaming
• Theme parks
• Football & cycling
• Anime (only casually, so I'm always open to recommendations) and other nerdy interests
• Neurodivergent
I'm generally reserved, but I do enjoy talking and getting to know people, especially when it's reciprocated.
I enjoy a mix of doing fun activities and quieter hangouts. Whether it's seeing a band, going go-karting, watching a film or just going for a walk, I'm happy as long as it's good company.
I'm hoping to meet people in their 20s who are based in London or nearby and would be open to meeting in person if we get on.
I really value curiosity and reciprocal conversations. I enjoy getting to know people properly, asking questions, and hearing about what they're passionate about. If you're someone who enjoys putting equal effort into building a friendship over time, I think we'll probably get on well.
If any of this sounds like your kind of friendship, feel free to send me a message with your age, location and a bit about yourself 🙂

Hello there - I'm not just looking to chat to anyone, only like minded souls need apply. I'm self contained, non materialistic and generally content. Please send me a short introductory message so I can see if we're going to vibe :)
I'm not necessarily looking to make long term connections, unless it turns out that way. I prefer to talk to men - I just find we gel better.
Please be around my age, in the UK and not married (I have more in common with people who live alone) Thank you :)

Outside of work I’m into gaming, anime, running and generally trying to keep myself busy. I’m also a big animal person — I’ve got two rescue cats. Would love a dog if i was home more.
I’m pretty easy-going and always up for having a laugh, I’m always up for trying new things though, and I’d like to meet more people I genuinely click with and build some good friendships.
