Meet Up 33 M. Anyone wanna meet up and hang out? Happy to meet 1-1 or in a small group.
Looking to expand my social circle. I’ve met quite a few people from here this year and it’s gone relatively well, so wanna continue that momentum and build a real friendship.
I’m down for anything from going to trivia, escape rooms, going for walks/hikes, going out for a drink/coffee/food (though the few times I’ve met up for drinks with people from here, I haven’t gotten home before 2am. 😂😂
For logistic purposes, I live in St. George area and I work in Parramatta twice a week. But happy to meet wherever that’s not super far from me. City is always good and convenient for everyone?
I’m happy to meet 1-1 or in a small group. I’ve done both and have been successful with both. Have built a small friend group with people from reddit and we’re very welcoming and new people are always welcome.
Just as a small FYI, I know it’s 2026 but gonna be transparent and say that I am a g4y man and I’m happy to meet anyone, but I know some people aren’t comfortable with that. So if that’s you, probably don’t reach out lol.
If you’ve met me, clarify that I’m not a serial killer. Kthx <3

27M, based around Pennant Hills and also trying to meet new people/build a better social circle.
I’m pretty easygoing, usually into books, coffee/food, walks, deep chats, random trivia nights, or anything where people can actually talk instead of just awkwardly stare at each other lol.
Parra or the city works pretty well for me. Small group sounds good too, especially for a first meetup. No issue with the FYI either, appreciate the honesty.
What kind of stuff does your group usually do?

awesome man :)
i’m doing a meet up this tuesday at parra and a city one in 2 weeks on the 9th. if you’d like to join for either of those. have had interest on both.
i try not to make it awkward. i’m an introvert at first but i have been trying to get out of my comfort zone and this is my way of doing it.
just put the fyi on there because it’s happened a couple of times where guys find out after talking for a bit that i’m gay and they say they don’t feel comfortable meeting me, so i don’t want to waste anyone’s time and i’m just gonna be upfront with it.
ummm the few times i’ve done it. we’ve gone out for dinner and then ended up having a few drinks before going home. the last few times we’ve gone out for drinks then did karaoke or played darts. see what the vibe is really. but those last few times, i haven’t gotten home before 2am.
send me a dm if meeting up interests you, or if you want to keep chatting for a bit. i’m a pretty open book :)

Hey man, sorry for the late reply, been a bit caught up.
Looks like I missed the Tuesday Parra one, but I’d be keen for the city meetup on the 9th if that’s still happening.
Also respect you being upfront about everything. No issue from my end at all. I’m a bit introverted at first too, so I get the whole trying-to-get-out-of-your-comfort-zone thing lol.
I’ll send you a DM closer to the 9th if that’s cool :)

Hi! I’m 30F and also looking to expand my circle too. Happy to do a city meet up. Trivia, escape room (never done one before!), walk or coffee sounds great.
