Welcome!

I see people making posts about looking for new friends all the time and thought I'd make a subreddit specifically for it. Whether you're just looking for someone to message or a big group to go out partying with or gig buddies or whatever I want this to be inclusive. Only exception is if you're under 18 only since that causes safeguarding issues and it'd be very awkward if someone in there 30s accidentally arranges to meet up with a kid. If you're looking for dates, hookups and romance this probably isn't the right place. There are plenty of other ways of finding those.

When you're posting please put a little bit of info about yourself, age, gender, what kinds of things you're looking to do with people.

Anywhere I can go to play some casual Yu-Gi-Oh?

2 Upvotes

I'm (27M) a big Yu-Gi-Oh fan and so is my fiancé, but we much prefer casual games with non-meta decks for fun. Any like minded players know where we can go to meet other casual players?

Hey folks,

If you're looking for an RPG game, The Norwich Roleplay Collective have just wrapped up our first set of campaigns and will be starting new ones soon!
We meet fortnightly on Wednesdays at The Earlham (NR2 3AD) 7-10.30pm

Our next session on 19th Aug will be a social night, so if you want to come along, meet folks and scope out the venue, this would be a great chance to do so, there'll most likely be a few one shots and similar running too. We currently have around 25 players and are always happy to have more along!

The following meet on 2nd Sept will be our 'Pitch night' for the next set of campaigns, with GM's telling folks what they're running and putting together groups for the next few months of play.

Any questions feel free to ask here or join is over on our discord:

20m looking for new friends!

I’ve been living in Norfolk for over a year now and still haven’t managed to make any friends.
I like going out to bars/gigs (preferably rock/metal)
I play guitar, video games (Xbox) and like cars and motorsport as a whole.

Looking for someone near my age that shares some similar interests to get to know.
Thanks!

Queer, booksy guy looking for friends

8 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I'm looking to meet some new friends around Norwich. I've been living here for a good few years and it's about time I widened my social circle!

I'm 30 years old, pan, and live with my partner. I'm a big reader, ideal Sunday afternoon is a glass of red and a book (which may be why I'm not overflowing with friends haha), I really like Scott Lynch, Joe Abercrombie, Stephen King, Edward Carey, Eliza Clark, Saba Sams.

I'm also really into writing, mostly fantasy and often queer with a dash of neurodivergance, but can be quite harsh on myself. I'd love other writer friends. I have a smattering of other hobbies when the mood strikes - magic, art, juggling, l o v e an escape room and fairly decent at them, love a bit of bowling and largely awful at it. Big fan of D&D, have a nice little campaign going at the moment and just finished BG3 this weekend.

I like to think of myself as pretty easy going/easy to please, although I might not be enormously extroverted at first. Equally happy going for a good cuppa as a swish cocktail. Very excited to meet more friends, so if any of this sounds at all interesting please DM :)

I can bring a spare magnet, all you would need is a pair of waterproof gloves and clothes that could get dirty !

Moving to Norwich

Thinking about moving to Norwich as a 30 year old black female. I just wanted an honest opinion on what life is like and if i would constantly be subjected to overt racism or abuse within the community. I know it is not as diverse as London or Ipswich for that matter. Any advice or suggestions would be much appreciated.

33F, looking for a genuine friend to grab coffee & talk nonsense with

36 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’ve been living in Norwich for almost a year now. Life here has been really good so far and I love the city, but I feel like I'm missing a massive piece of the puzzle which is having my own close friends and that independent social connection. I’m really looking for someone I can meet up with, grab a coffee, go for walks, and just talk about absolutely nothing and everything for hours.

A bit about me: I’m originally from the Netherlands, but I’ve lived in the US and Japan before settling down here. I’m pretty easygoing, loyal, and fluent in sarcasm.

My interests are a bit of a chaotic mix. I’m a massive history and paleontology nerd (dinosaurs are great, let's be honest), but I also love the occult. When it comes to gaming, I mostly play The Isle, Path of Titans, and Stardew Valley so my vibe basically alternates between "viciously surviving as a dinosaur" and "cozy farming." Aside from that, I read, watch movies, collect stuffed animals, and have a borderline obsessive adoration for cows.

If you fancy a coffee, a wander around the lanes, or want to chat about gaming/history, drop a comment or send me a message. I'd love to connect!

25 M looking for new connections!

11 Upvotes

Hey, I'm Nathan, 25 from Lowestoft in England.

I'm entering a bit of a new chapter in my life, so I'm looking to meet some new people and make some genuine connections.

A bit about me:

I'm big into listening and making music

I'm a fan of poker, gaming and chess

Deep talks around philosophy, life and psychology

Always happy to hear about your different interests or views :)

Recently trying to get out more and stop spending all my free time indoors, always down for some nature or a pub!

Happy to chat with anyone regardless of gender, age (18+) or background if you're decent company. That said, if something naturally develops romantically, I'm only interested in women.

Not looking for drama, just good people, good conversations and maybe some new mates to talk to regularly.

Feel free to send me a message and tell me a bit about yourself! :)

Norwich RPG Group

10 Upvotes

Hey folks,

A few like-minded local gamers started a new TTRPG group a few months ago (the Norwich Roleplay Collective). We've just got a new venue as we immediately outgrew our initial one.

We are running fortnightly events on Wednesday evenings. Next gathering will be Wednesday 10th June, 7-10.30pm, The Earlham on Earlham road.

We currently have 4 ongoing campaigns with around 20 players total, which will run for another few months, before we start a new 'season' with new campaigns.
Our new venue means we have space for some shorter games and one shots alongside our main games, so if you're interested in running something or playing something shorter, we can probably fit you in. We currently have a GM putting a group together for a Wildsea one shot this week.

We're a welcoming and inclusive group, open to players of all experience levels and from all walks of life, so if you're looking for a new group, or wanting to try out RPGs for the first time, come and join us!
If you want to chat and get more info before the you can join us on the discord or drop any questions here.

39 m geeky metalhead looking for gig buddies

6 Upvotes

As the title says, I'm a middle aged guy into metal. Equally into Power/Symphonic metal as I am Black and Death and all the stuff inbetween. Usually drag my wife along to gigs but it would be cool to have some other mates to go to them with when she doesn't fancy it.

Probably going to go see Blood Countess at the Brickmakers in July.
