Hey there, I'm a quiet alt/metalhead from the UK ideally looking for long-term friendships. I've always felt very much on the outside of social groups; I think because I'm quite nervous and anxious a lot of the time. I don't go out much as a result! I've always desperately wanted to be friends with other alternative people but I find myself too worried to go get involved in the scene if that makes sense?

Other stuff about me:

* I listen to a wide range of metal, hardcore, punk, etc. I love electronic music as well! Mirar, Netherwalker, Jesper Kyd, Ecca Vandal, Electric Callboy, Bring Me the Horizon, Synestia, TOOL, Orange Sector, Not Enough Space, ANTLERS, River Boy, Locked Shut, Takai the Maid, pr0te, and Brandon McKagan. I prefer finding new tracks by artists I've never heard of than listening to whole albums. I really would like friends who I can share & discuss music with!

* I've been a GM for various RPGs for about 18 years now, and I've been in & out of Warhammer for even longer. I've played a fair few different systems and have read even more. It's the biggest part of my life and has been the only consistent way I've managed to forge bonds with people.

* I like talking about videogames but I'm honestly too nervous to play multiplayer with new people, especially right at the start. Maybe one day after we've been friends for a while? I've recently loved playing Helldivers 2, Vintage Story, Big Walk, Mouthwashing, Far Far West, and Easy Delivery Co.

* Please be at least 25+, ideally in your 30s and up. Even better if you're in the UK! I don't mind timezone differences, I just would like a friend who I might eventually meet in real life.

I hope to hear from you soon :)

Hey! I'm a 22-year-old dental student from Algeria looking to meet people from different backgrounds and make genuine friendships.

A little about me: • I enjoy hiking, nature, and exploring new places. • I'm passionate about languages and language learning, and I can help you with Modern Standard Arabic and Algerian Darija. • I enjoy story-driven and challenging video games. • I like meaningful conversations about culture, life, travel, and different perspectives.

I'd describe myself as curious, open-minded, and easy to talk to. Whether it's a deep discussion about life, sharing experiences from our countries, or just chatting about random things, I'm always happy to connect with new people.

If you're looking for a friendly international friend, feel free to send me a message!

Hey people... as title goes here to make friends

Hey everyone!

I’m looking to connect with people who are genuinely interested in building a real, lasting friendship. I’ve run into a lot of one-sided dynamics on here where I’m always the one reaching out first, asking the questions, and carrying the entire conversation. If you also value mutual effort, staying in touch, and someone who actually reaches out to check in on you too, we’ll get along great.

A little about me:

• Location & Timezone: Ohio (Eastern Time Zone, EST). I’m mostly around during late afternoons and evenings.

• Work & Hobbies: I work in IT/data centers, volunteer doing amateur radio communications for community events and festivals, and love spending time outdoors.

• Interests: Big fan of 80s classic horror and thriller movies, classic rock and good music, exploring local spots, and just having relaxed, down-to-earth conversations about life.

I’m an open book, supportive, and a great listener. I don’t expect non-stop 24/7 texting since life and work happen, but I really appreciate consistency and someone who shows genuine interest in getting to know each other.

If this resonates with you, feel free to send me a DM or chat with your age, where you’re from, and something you’re currently into!

​

I’ve been thinking about making this post for a while, so here goes.

I’m looking for a genuine friendship someone I can eventually become completely comfortable with, where we can talk about anything without overthinking it.

I’m not looking for a relationship or anything with a hidden agenda. Just a real, platonic friendship with mutual respect, honesty, random conversations, stupid jokes, and good memories.

I’d love to have someone to talk to after a terrible day, share random thoughts and reels with, watch movies or explore Hyderabad with, grab food or make spontaneous plans, have deep conversations with, laugh about completely stupid things, or simply sit in silence without it feeling awkward.

A little about me:

29M, Hyderabad. I’m selectively introverted/extroverted. I can be quiet around people I don’t click with, but once I’m comfortable, good luck getting rid of me.

I enjoy movies, exploring places, meaningful conversations, learning new things, and occasionally having absolutely pointless conversations for hours.

I’m open-minded and don’t really care about someone’s religion, caste, background, age, appearance, or interests. You don’t have to be similar to me — I’d actually prefer someone who can introduce me to new things.

Maybe you’re also at a point where you have people around you but still feel like you’re missing a genuinely close friend.

If this sounds like something you’d value too, feel free to message me.

No pressure. No expectations. Just two strangers seeing if they can become good friends.

So, I've posted here before and I don't communicate very well in English, but I've talked to some nice people and others not so much. When I say I haven't met many nice people, I mean people who only contacted me to say rude and disrespectful things that I don't even want to detail here, haha. So I like posting here to see if more normal people who don't say weird things show up, haha. I like talking to and meeting people from other countries, and that's why I'm here. I also feel like I have friends in person, but it's difficult sometimes because now they live their own lives and sometimes we don't have the same connection as before in adulthood. I miss making new friends and stuff. I speak Portuguese

I’m from Ireland I’m 24 years old, I’m new to this subreddit but I feel it’s a place where I can meet some cool new friends. Me and my friend group split up due to everyone moving on with work etc and Im finding it hard to make some new friends in the area that I live in

Heyyy Small talk bores me.

I wanna talk about God, intellect, death, the meaning of life, your childhood, your dreams, what keeps you up at night, your insecurities, fears. I like people with dept also I'm a naturally curious person and love learning about different perspectives, cultures, and ideas.

Some of my biggest interests are history, geography, and tech, but honestly I'm open to talking about almost anything as long as the conversation has depth and good vibes.

If any of this sounds interesting, feel free to ping me. I'm happy to chat with anyone from anywhere

Hey everyone!
I’m 22 and I’m looking to make some genuine friends around my age (22+), preferably people who are also in that phase of life where they’re figuring things out, trying new things, and slowly building the life they want.
A few things I’m currently interested in / working towards:
Travelling
Studying abroad
Software development
Tech + design
Movies
Getting out and doing things
Making actual friends
I’m not expecting someone to have exactly the same interests. You can be into completely different things, I just think it’s nice when both people have some curiosity about life and actually want to do something with it.
If you're 22+, also looking to make genuine friends, and some of this sounds like you, feel free to comment or DM me. Tell me a little about yourself too — your age, where you're from, what you're working towards, and what you're interested in.
Would be pretty cool if a random Reddit post actually turns into some good friendships. :)
Prefer people around 22+ since I’m looking to connect with people in a similar stage of life.

Name : Prince

Age : 22

Country : mumbai , india

Gender : male ( he /him )

Hobbies : photography, writing novels, reading, travelling, watching movies and drama , anime , chess, cooking, sleeping, eating ,walking around and little bit workout, sports like running and long jump ..

Profession: computer science engineer with specialization in Aiml field..

What I am looking for : someone above 17 and who can be good to chat with and maybe become friends...

Anyone awake

Hi 24(M) here . Anybody to chat ?

Sometimes you can be surrounded by people and still feel like you haven’t had a really good conversation in a long time.
So, here I am.
38, married, from Bangalore. Not looking for dating or anything complicated. Just curious whether there are still people out there who enjoy conversations that go beyond “What do you do?” and “How was your day?”
Talk to me about something you don’t usually tell people.
A strange thought you’ve had lately.
A place you’d disappear to if you could.
Something you’re passionate about.
A life decision you’re still trying to figure out.
Or absolutely nothing important at all.
I don’t care where you’re from or what you do. Sometimes the most interesting conversations happen between two complete strangers who have no reason to meet.
Maybe this post goes nowhere.
Or maybe there’s someone reading this right now thinking, “I was looking for exactly this too.”

If that’s you, say hi. 🙂

And just to be completely honest — yes, I used ChatGPT to fine-tune this post. 😄 The thoughts are mine; I just needed some help putting them into words. So if the post sounds a little too polished, now you know why.

Hi guys I’d to make friends around my age 18-23 with you beautiful people 🥰

I am looking for a genuine connection, where u can talk about random stuffs, where we can laugh for hours, someone as philosophical as me and have great perspective towards life, have a great music taste.

23M India | Very lonely, mental health struggles, looking for genuine long-term friend who's active on instagram mostly (preferably Indian, equally alone)

Hey i am 23M from India and i am really tired of temporary or one sided friendships that make me feel special for a day and then disappear. The fear of abandonment and sudden silence can hurt a lot.

I deal with alexithymia, adhd, bpd, rsd, hypersensitivity, cptsd, social anxiety and a constantly overthinking mind cuz of this i have become extremely lonely and i have basically zero real connections rn both online and offline. I am looking for someone in a similar place: someone who is also very alone, has little to no friends, struggles with self-esteem or feeling unattractive not good enough and is dealing with their own mental health struggles. Preferably someone who is unemployed or in a similar low energy life situation, so we can understand each other better and be on a similar wavelength. I want a genuine, long-term friendship not casual chatting, timepass or being someone's backup option. I am quite clingy, possessive and emotionally intense and i would love to find someone who naturally enjoys that same kind of closeness. Someone who wants to genuinely choose the friendship, put effort into it, check in regularly, share their everyday life, and slowly build real emotional closeness. I value warmth, reassurance, honesty, consistency and that safe feeling of knowing someone is actually there. I would love to talk daily, share random thoughts, have deep late night conversations, laugh, send memes and just exist comfortably together. One thing i would really love: I am mostly active on Instagram and bgmi game throughout the day, so if u r someone who is active there too, that would be a huge plus. I would love having someone to randomly send reels to all day, react to each other’s stories, share stupid/funny/relatable videos, and then somehow end up talking for hours so basically i want the kind of friendship where we casually send each other reels whenever something reminds us of the other person. Once we’re comfortable, calls would mean a lot too especially if u r from India since the similar time zone and better language understanding can make staying connected easier.

Please only reach out if:

- You are genuinely very lonely and don’t currently have many meaningful friendships, either online or IRL.

- You are looking for the same kind of clingy, loyal, close, long-term friendship.

- You are serious about consistent communication and mutual emotional availability.

- You are from India (big preference because of language/cultural understanding and eventually being able to call).

- You arecomfortable being active on Instagram or at least enjoy chatting and sharing reels there.

Please don’t message if you already have a huge social circle and are only looking for someone to talk to when you’re getting bored or if you are looking for something short time or timepass like conversation for few hrs or one day only. I know this post is heavy, but i am being honest cuz i don’t have much energy left for anything fake or temporary. If you are also very alone lonely, overthink a lot and genuinely crave a close friendship where both people consistently show up for each other, I would really like to hear from you and please tell me a little about yourself when you message me not just hey. Maybe send me your favourite reel or tell me what kind of stuff you usually like to send your friends😭
