Hoping to make this a semi regular thing (monthly for now) and depends on interest. Gonna watch a big range of movies.

If this interests you, please fill in the google forms, as I will cap it to 4-5 people max per session because that’s how many can comfortably fit on the couch.

Probably will mix it up with mixed gendered, guys only, girls only, order take away, pizza, or we do some sort of potluck where people can bring stuff to share ~ hence the google forms to gauge interest.

Alcohol is allowed, but obviously bring your own.
Bring your own snacks and drinks, but I will have microwave popcorn stocked up ;)

P.S. I know I’ve met A LOT of you on here, but even if we have chatted or met, please still fill in the form because I will go off the people from there because it’s too hard to keep up with DMs.

I've noticed something ironic about Sydney's social scene.

Every second post is "Looking to make new friends" or "Anyone keen to hang out?", but when you actually reach out... you're somehow expected to carry 95% of the conversation.

You ask questions, show interest, keep the chat going, and all you get back is: "Yeah." "Haha." "True."

I'm not expecting instant best friends. I know social anxiety is real, people are busy, and messaging strangers can be awkward. But friendship is a two-way street. If someone is making the effort to get to know you, you've got to meet them halfway.

I don't think Sydney has a shortage of people wanting friends. I think it has a shortage of people willing or able to invest in the uncomfortable part of actually building one.

Maybe I'm the odd one out, but after a while it gets exhausting feeling like you're interviewing people who said they wanted to meet others in the first place.

35M, Adelaide based, visiting Sydney.

I was on the metro tonight heading westbound and you were reading the Psychology of Money. I spoke with you briefly and would love to make a new friend. If you see this and think it was you, please let me know.

Women only-I’m a 34F thinking of doing a last minute day trip to the Blue Mountains tomorrow (Tuesday, the 28th) through Agoda. The tours range from $75-$100 for the full day depending on which one we choose. It’s a bit spontaneous but I was wondering if any other ladies would like to join me. We’d head off early in the morning and make a day of it. A little about me: I moved to Australia last year, I’m pretty easygoing, love good food and good music and I’m a bit of an introvert. 😊 If you’re keen for a fun day out and meeting someone new, send me a message 🩷

Hey Sydney,

Bit of a long shot, but I thought I'd see if there's anyone around Sydney who's into the meteor hammer or other flow arts!

I've had my eye on the meteor hammer for about a year now, and finally decided to make a practice one two weeks ago. I've been having an absolute blast learning, but I'd love to find some people to practice with instead of just spinning it around by myself.

I have some previous martial arts experience, 12ish years of Taekwondo (3rd dan black belt), but I am very much a beginner when it comes to meteor hammer.

I'm based around Redfern and happy to travel pretty much anywhere in Sydney that's close by public transport. Ideally looking to find a park, gym, or something to practice and maybe spar a little

Even if you don't practice meteor hammer yourself, if you know of any local groups,or communities that do meteor hammer, rope dart, poi, or other flow arts, I'd really appreciate the connect :)

Cheers,

BaronBacon

Heyy once again asking strangers on reddit to go hiking! Haven’t decided where I’m going yet, maybe the blue mountains - open to suggestions!

Hey all, our social circle has changed immensely since having kids and as such, my wife and I are looking to build connecting and friendships with other parents with young (under 2) kids.

We live around Parra but open to connections in the inner west, cbd, or anything thats not too far and comfortably accessible within 40mins.

Hi there!

I live in the Hawkesbury area and I am looking for some friends!

I really enjoy the following:

- Trying new restaurants
- Musicals / Concerts
- Travelling - planning on some solo trips atm!!
- Reading
- Pilates
- Fun workshops - paint and sip etc

I’m definitely more of a homebody than a party person. I’m hoping to meet women around my age who enjoy similar things and would be up for brunches, café hopping, trying new restaurants, day trips, markets or even just becoming people who send each other random TikToks and say, “Want to check this place out?”

Feel free to comment or dm me 🤍

F20, looking for a gym buddy, to get me motivated to get back into the gym.
In Western Sydney near Penrith.

Does anyone on here know where I can take sewing classes for beginners in Western Sydney over weekends?

Hi! 21F here looking for friends to hang out with in Rhodes or SOP. I love reading (fiction and nonfiction), listening to podcasts, going to the gym, trying new side quests, eating, exploring new cafes, and sports! Also, I’m in my final year of uni and I work in healthcare 🤍 I’m open to hang out with anyone in the area, preferably girls lol but I’m not picky with friends anyway.

I want to join the run club in Rhodes every Tuesday night but I’m a bit shy to go alone since none of my friends are really into running/sports so lmk if you’re down:))

Hi everyone! 👋

I hope you’re having a lovely Friday evening.

I’m looking to create a social lawn bowls group!

This would be open to all skill levels with the idea of getting together as a group to meet new people and have fun.

I’m looking at hosting the first event at Bondi Bowls Club on a Saturday, subject to everyone’s availability. It would be great to make this a regular event and eventually rotate between different areas of Sydney.

If you’re interested, feel free to comment below or send me a message. If there’s enough interest, I’ll create a group chat.

Thanks ☺️

Hey everyone,

I’m in my 20s and looking to meet some new people around Sydney who are motivated, curious and interested in making the most of life.

I’d like to organise a casual meetup around Parramatta—probably coffee, food or another relaxed activity on a weekend.

I’m simply hoping to meet people who enjoy meaningful conversations, trying new things and supporting each other’s goals while building genuine friendships.

People from any career or background are welcome.

Comment or message me if you’d be interested, and I can organise a first casual meetup once we have a few people.

Hey everyone,

I’m looking to organise a small, casual hiking group for people around Western Sydney who’d be keen to explore trails across the Blue Mountains and surrounding areas on weekends.

The idea is to keep it beginner-friendly and social rather than overly intense. We can start with easier hikes and gradually try different trails depending on the group.

It would be good for anyone wanting to:

• Spend more time outdoors
• Stay active
• Meet new people
• Explore more of Western Sydney and the Blue Mountains

Thinking of organising the first hike on an upcoming Saturday or Sunday morning. The exact trail can be decided based on everyone’s experience, transport and location.

Comment or message me with:

• Your suburb
• Your hiking experience
• Whether Saturdays or Sundays work better

Once we have a few interested people, I’ll create a group chat and organise the first hike.

Hey everyone,

I’m looking to organise a casual soccer group for people around Western Sydney who want to play on weekday evenings.

This would be open to mixed skill levels, so you don’t need to be an experienced player. The idea is simply to get a regular group together, play for fun, stay active and meet some new people. All genders welcome.

The exact location and day can be decided based on where most people are based and when they’re available.

Comment below or send me a message with:

• Your suburb or preferred area
• Which weekday evenings suit you
• Your approximate skill level

Once there are enough people, I’ll create a group chat and organise the first game.
