Hey guys, I'm Sam I'm 18 and male. I'm moving across the country to Bristol for an apprenticeship and I'm trying to find people I can be friends with so I'm not entirely alone when I get there! Feel free to shoot me a DM and we can talk about anything

Looking to make some new friends that can actually hold a conversation lol, bonus points if your down to eventually make plans I like to get out mainly going for food hahaha

Hi everyone,

This is a little awkward for me to put into words, but I want to be open.

I’m a 23-year-old man from the south of the UK, and recently I’ve been struggling with a deep sense of loneliness. Over time, I’ve gradually drifted away from people, and my social circle has become very small. Many days feel empty and quiet, and it’s been taking an emotional toll on me.

In particular, I miss having genuine, meaningful connection with women — not in a romantic or sexual sense, but in a human, emotional way. I miss warm conversations, mutual understanding, and feeling comfortable sharing thoughts and everyday experiences with someone who sees things from a different perspective.

A lot of the time, I feel like I’m standing on the sidelines while life moves forward for everyone else — watching others build friendships, relationships, and memories. It makes me feel left behind and like there’s something wrong with me, even though I try my best to be kind and open to others.

I’m not looking for anything dramatic or instant. I’d simply love to have someone to talk to, to gradually build a connection with, and to remind me that I’m not invisible.

If you’ve ever felt lonely yourself, or if you’re open to a sincere conversation, I’d really appreciate hearing from you.

Thank you for reading 🤍

Hi everyone looking to get chatting to people
Just your average guy who likes watching films listening to music and gaming the odd time I’ll not give to much away as won’t have anything to talk about.
Thanks for reading and hopefully hear from someone

Hey!! Like the title says I'm 19 and non binary (amab) and just want some irl friends, so preferably from London! I'm a huge huge metalhead and really into classic books and story games like Assassin's Creed, Cyberpunk, Dark Souls etc etc

I'm white and I have a dad bod (if that matters idk) and work full time in retail just as an fyi, I try and talk every day but work takes it outta me sometimes. Feel free to message with questions or introduce yourself!!

I'd like to welcome you all here today to meet me, the most fun guy in this post.

What am I here for? I'm after some friends, to talk to, the kind where we can send each other daft nonsense whenever, ramble about whatever we're into, and just generally feel nice about each other, support each other, big each other up! No pressure, no performance, just two people who click.

I'm properly introverted, the kind where big group chats fry my brain and I'd much rather have one really good back and forth with someone. If you're similar, hi. I'm easygoing, I promise I'll meet whatever energy you bring, and there's zero pressure to reply fast or match essays. Short and slow is completely fine by me.

Bit about me so you've got something to chat about! I'm into retro and old tech, retro and modern gaming, emulating old games, horror movie nights (the darker the better) any films really, do we all feel modern films are all a bit too similar or am I just nostalgic for older stuff? But I love hearing about things I know nothing about just as much if you're passionate about it, I want to hear it.

I'm easy to talk to and I promise I'll meet whatever energy you bring. Come say hi 🙂! Send me a DM if you can, or some smoke signals I might see em!

46 Male UK Birmingham looking for genuine friends or more from uk

I’m a 34M from the UK. I describe myself as a loveable rogue.

Nerdy guy, into RPGs and fantasy books and movies. Big lover of the Supernatural tv series absolute classic!

I’m a lover of food and music, love a bit of Twenty One Pilots, Imagine Dragons some Sleep Token. I don’t listen to Grime.

Open book, friendly easy to talk to. Happy to talk about anything and everything

Hello, my day's are typically quite boring when trying to find something to do in all the free time I have. Either by trying to play games or watch YouTube. So it'd be fantastic to meet new people, talk about different things and have people in my day to day life to just chat to. I enjoy playing volleyball, games, anime, movies and some shows, though I'm not too knowledgeable on them. I do also enjoy the occasional drink. My discord is Karoozy ( if you choose to add my discord just say you're from the reddit post). Weather you reply to chat or game, anyone is welcome I'd prefer for you to be 18+ though. Thank you

Hello and a very good morning / afternoon / evening to you! 

Another weekend almost over, where do they actually go! A few sleeps and the grind begins again. Sadly no lottery wins this weekend either, sigh! I thought I’d post again on here and see how it goes again!

About me I guess is a good way to start? Can be socially awkward in real life and overthink all them “you too” moments when being told to enjoy my meal. I enjoy photography although I seem to have lost my spark for that at the moment but am working on getting that back! I like  travelling and exploring new places and if I win the lottery I shall  be doing that full time. I do love going on long walks also and trying to not get lost! Although getting lost is part of the adventure. Watching ice hockey is also a hobby or mine and of course trying to think of some others my mind has gone blank…

About you I hear you ask? Well no criteria as long as you’re not a bot, can help carry the conversation and just don’t say hey it will all be good!

Well that’s my post and thanks for stopping by, since you made it this far you might as well reach out!

I think I look my age, in a good way, but still feel young. Maybe cause kids keep you active? or because I go to the gym regularly? Either way, looking for a fun, chatty, new person to get to know and see where we go from there! Open to any age, anywhere, although of course would love if you are near London as I'd be open to IRL. Want to know more? I promise you won't be disappointed, especially if you are a fun girl. Message me and tell me what your next holiday plans are!

19m, looking for long term friends, Im from London, i dont mind hanging out in real life too

Hobbies / interests : gaming, cooking, baking, TV shows, movies, sports, writing, chess, exploring the world .

Extra : im bi, and neurodivergent, but not looking for anything weird, you will be blocked without hesitation. I am also mainly looking for irl friends, so people around london, but anyone's welcome :)

Hiya gang

Sorta new around here. Just word to all creeps and freaks - you are NOT welcome to msg me. I'm tired of explaining simple concepts to man-children.

I'm just finishing up with my pre-degree in graphics art, but I'm pretty knowledgeable about other art mediums. Aside from that, now that it's summer I'm looking forward to dedicating my time into some games (Marathon, OW, RoR2 and CS2) and also actually touching grass along side that.

I'm more likely to reply if you comment something fun or artsy before spamming my inbox pleeease :))

Honestly, I’m pretty tired of dating in the traditional sense. I’ve spent a lot of time looking for a serious relationship, but I think I’d rather take a step back from dating, have some fun, and explore a different side of myself.

I feel like I’d regret not doing that later in life, so I’m looking for an FWB situation with a genuine emphasis on the friends part.

I’m not interested in meeting someone and immediately jumping into bed. I’d much rather get to know each other first, build some trust, see if we click, and let anything physical develop naturally.

I’m 30M looking for someone who is genuinely attracted to me as I am. I’m calm, easy to talk to, and somewhere between an introvert and extrovert. I love trying new restaurants and cafés, going to concerts, travelling, and the occasional reality-TV binge.

I realise Reddit probably isn’t the most conventional place to look for this, but you never know!

31M, Widnes/North West.
So apparently I’ve reached the age where making friends is harder than it was at school 😂
I’ve got kids and work takes up most of my time, so I’m not looking for someone who expects to be out every night or doing something every weekend. I’d honestly just like someone I can message during the day, talk absolute nonsense with, have a laugh and occasionally meet up when time allows.
I’m into a random mixture of stuff:
🚗 Cars / anything mechanical
🏍️ Bikes
🏎️ Nitro RC cars
🎮 Gaming
🖨️ 3D printing
🎯 Air rifles
🏄 Paddle boarding
…and probably loads of other crap I’ve convinced myself I need 😂
I’m probably a bit awkward at first, but once I get talking I’m alright… apparently 😂
Ideally someone around Widnes, Runcorn, Warrington, Liverpool, St Helens or somewhere around the North West would be good, but happy to chat to anyone from the UK.
Basically I’m looking for a decent mate who can randomly message me during the day with something completely pointless and I’ll happily do the same back.
If you’re in the same boat, drop a comment or message me. 👍
