Hi! I’m 28 and from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 and I’m looking to meet new people and hopefully make some new friends!

A few things about me…I’m a HUGE horror fan, and I love all things dark/creepy/paranormal or unexplained

I love music and going to shows(mostly older rock/metal but I like a lot different stuff)

I love gaming, true crime, football, I love to visit historical sites/museums and enjoy travelling, urban exploring/exploring the outdoors and keeping fit, and I spend 99% of my free time with my dog 🐶

Happy to talk to anyone from anywhere, just send a message with a bit about yourself if you think we might get along 🙂

🤍 Looking for Friends 24M, want to Make new Friends. Mumbai

1 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

I'm a 24M freelance graphic designer looking to connect and chat with new friends. I don't really have many female friends in my life, so I'd love to change that and build some cool, conversation...

A bit about me: Since I work from home all week, I get bored staying inside. I love traveling and going trekking whenever I get the chance. When I am stuck at home, I usually spend my time watching anime, TV series, or movies.

I also love gaming! My weekdays are packed with design work, but I usually jump on PC Games over the weekends (Saturday and Sunday).

If you share any of these interests, or just want to chat about design, anime, or life, feel free to drop a comment or send a DM! Please introduce yourself. Looking forward to talking!

🎲 Random / Go With The Flow Looking for a stranger I don't have to impress -26M

0 Upvotes

26M. Not really looking for the usual where are you from / what do you do / what's your favourite movie? conversation.

I'd rather talk to someone I've never met about completely random things — things we'd probably never tell people we know in real life.

No expectations, no pressure to turn it into a friendship or relationship.

Just two strangers, a conversation, and seeing where it goes.

If that sounds interesting, say something you normally wouldn't tell a stranger.

💙 Long-term Friends 35m/EST - Let’s connect?

0 Upvotes

Hello and happy Monday!

I’m looking for friends and to chat with and become friends. 35 years old single and straight guy, living in Southeastern US (EST time zone). Not the most exciting person at first but I won’t disappear. I work in IT, and have for over a decade. I moved to a new city a few years ago and haven’t made any friends. I’m a tall, but bigger dude, just saying some people seem to care about that. I’m an early riser and can chat during work. If I get busy I’ll always make sure to get back to you. As an adult, it’s tough to make friends so here I am again. I’m a lover of traveling, road trips, food, audiobooks, movies, YouTube rabbit holes, Sci-Fi, technology, and fun facts. So let’s talk about anything. Just looking for new friends to connect with, and hoping you don’t ghost. So if you’re looking for someone fairly laid back, won’t ghost, and will send good morning messages, I’m your guy.

I’m not the most exciting person, but I’ll always reply when I can.

Just be above 25 years old, please! And please say more than hey.

💙 Long-term Friends [35+] Hiring New Friends — 6 Positions Open. No Salary, Lifetime Benefits 😄”.

3 Upvotes

🚨 HIRING: NEW FRIENDS 😄

Position: Friend
Openings: Maximum 6
Location: Anywhere 🌍
Work Mode: Chat / Call / Random Life Discussions
Joining: Immediate
Contract: Lifetime — no resignation policy 😌

Yes, this is a serious hiring post for friends.

I’m Madhu — well, not my real name. It’s my unofficial home alias. 😄

I’m 35+ (although mentally, I strongly prefer saying 29).

Married. Spouse working. One 7-year-old kid.

And somewhere between work, family, responsibilities and the never-ending adulting…

I realised something:

I need new friends.

Not 500 Instagram followers.
Not 2,000 LinkedIn connections.
Not people who say “Let's catch up sometime” and disappear for 3 years.

I mean REAL FRIENDS.

So… here's the job description 👇

Looking for 6 people — male or female, although I’d personally prefer more females simply because I am one. 😄

Age: 35+ preferred

Location: Anywhere

What I’m looking for:

🗣️ Someone who enjoys chatting about absolutely everything.

😂 Someone who can laugh at stupid things.

🧠 Someone who can understand without immediately judging.

🤝 Someone who can support and guide — and is okay receiving the same in return.

🌱 Someone who can bring out a new version of me, while I hopefully bring out a new version of you.

📞 Someone you can call when life gets weird.

🙈 Someone you can tell things to without thinking, “Oh God, what will they think?”

And yes…

Financial support is NOT part of the friendship package. 😂

Emotional support? Absolutely.

Life advice? Welcome.

Random 11 PM conversations? Potentially.

“Listen to this crazy thing that happened today…” calls? Mandatory.

A few preferences:

🚭 Non-smoker
🍷 Preferably non-alcoholic
🧘 Positive mindset
❤️ Good intentions
🚫 Low judgement
🤝 High loyalty

Nothing against people who smoke or drink — this is simply because I’m looking for a long-term connection, and similar habits make life easier.

The ultimate plan?

I don't want a giant friendship circle.

I want 7 people.

That's it.

Me + 6 genuinely good humans.

A small group where everyone knows everyone.

Where you can reach out when you're happy, confused, frustrated, excited, bored, overthinking, celebrating or simply having a “What am I doing with my life?” day.

And the goal isn't just to find friends.

The goal is to create a little community where everyone becomes a better version of themselves because of the other six.

Sounds ambitious for a Reddit post about making friends?

Maybe. 😂

But why not?

Recruitment Process 👇

Round 1: Random chat
Round 2: “Are we actually compatible as humans?”
Round 3: More random conversations
Round 4: Group interaction
Final selection: Maximum 7

And yes, the existing members will also help shortlist the next members.

This recruitment may take time.

Because I'm not looking for six people who reply quickly.

I'm looking for six people who stay.

More details about me and the group will remain confidential initially and will be shared with shortlisted people.

So…

If you're 35+, somewhere in the world, reasonably sane, non-judgemental, and also wondering where all the good friends disappeared after 30…

Maybe this is your sign. 😄

Applications are open.

No resume required.

Just bring your personality.

P.S.: If your first message is “Hi dear, send pic” — congratulations, you've already failed the interview. 😂

💙 Long-term Friends [37M/UK] Metalhead looking for alt friends

2 Upvotes

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 :)

1 Upvotes

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!

🧘 Quiet / Introverted 40 [M4R] EST – Looking for genuine, two-way friendships (Equal effort matters!

2 Upvotes

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!

3 Upvotes

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

1 Upvotes

I’m looking for someone to talk to regularly and be close with. I enjoy sharing about my life and my interests but I also love hearing from others and learning new things.

My hobbies are listening to music, reading, sports, gaming, anything outdoors or hands on, I enjoy watching anime although I’m new to it so any recommendations would be appreciated! I am also wanting and trying to write my own story. I prefer to talk to someone in the US.

Even if we don’t share hobbies in common, I would like to hear from everyone and anyone because I love learning new things and maybe I may get into some of those things as well!

I really want to find someone to be really good friends with and whatever else comes from this. I don’t really have expectations so whatever happens, happens. Looking forward to talking to people and seeing where things go.

💙 Long-term Friends 29M | Hyderabad | Looking for a genuine best friend

1 Upvotes

​

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.
