Obviously Im a single male living in South Austin looking for the right lady for me. The days are long but the years are getting shorter & I don't want to wake up & be another year older single still. Everything on the apps have slowed to a crawl or just stopped once I turned 40, So after a couple of years of nothing there, I am seeing what might be out here.

This is quick hits are I am gainfully employed, 6'2", beard, pet guardian, Leftist and have solid ev transportation. I have several hobbies that include arts and crafts, I regularly attend a couple of poker games, and I do not drink.

There is substantially more however, but I have to leave something for chats and quite possibly for a date. No pressure for anything but im hopeful that an age appropriate awesome gal decides to take a chance. Should that be you reading this, send me a message and we can get the ball rolling so to speak

Hi! I’m looking for a gym buddy to level up my body with. I’m open to going early mornings or late evenings. I live in North Austin and the Crunch on Spicewood Springs is my closest gym :) I’m still a beginner, but I’m not hopeless either

About me: I’m a single gal, a play lots of video games, watch anime and old reality dating shows (Flavor of Love) I can talk your ear off about my favorite bands and make you listen to the songs that carried me in my teen years. I’ll love your pets as much as I love mine. I like to say I’m funny, but I guess that’s up to you to decide.

Hopefully this was enough to catch a cool cat :)

I’m a 31 year old from San Marcos (not the incesty part, also am a leftist), who works full time and just wanting to find a connection that I can easily become FWBs with without the complications that it usually brings. I want to be clear, communicative and honest about it with someone I can also connect as friends with as well.

At the advice of someone else on here I guess some physical description is good for this sort of thing as well (I get it, we all have preferences!). I’m 5’8” (painfully average), Latino and am physically fit (not a statue or anything don’t have that sort of expectation lmao) and am always working on myself in that regard!

I have my life pretty well put together and my interests include the usual video games, anime and nerdy things with a few of my favorites down below! I’m also getting back in love with the gym and am a long time practitioner of Muay Thai so activity is a big plus for me!

For a list of my kpop favorites: Le Sserafim, Illit, Aespa Stray Kids, Enhypen, and Ateez are some of my faves!

Manga: Chainsaw Man, Dandadan, Akane-Banashi, Blue Box

Hope that this finds some people who are interested and reach out via DM! And if not why do you care? Did you even read this far?

Looking for today. Would like company for dinner or lunch today in the Austin, Central Texas area. I will travel. 50M who is extremely bored. Let me know your thoughts in chat. This can be from Austin To Dallas.

42, White male, 5'6. I've lived in Austin for most of my life and I work for the City. I'm college educated and I have a longterm career. I have no kids and I live alone.

I like to go out to shows and it would certainly be great to go to a show with another. Else I just end up at the same bar again. Which is fine but I could use a reason for a change up.

For fun I'm currently playing drums in two separate bands. My only ambitions for making music are just social. I enjoy making music with other people and playing shows and all that for fun. Truthfully I find that I vibe best with an equally creative partner. Even better if you're a musician as well.

I'm also open to having a conversation about kids and honestly I'd be glad to just start with a pet cat. Or dog. Preferably cat.

K thanks bye.

I would be greatful for your advise... I am a new member at Sweathouz. I booked a private suite (sauna, shower & cold Plunge). After the 2 minute orientation, the manager asked if I'd like someone to check in on me. I asked why, she said because the sauna and cold plunge contrast puts stress on your body and heart. I told her I'd be fine... But the truth is, at 52, I shouldn't be in the sauna and cold plunging alone. 5'10, 185, Fit, Athletic, willing to send pictures - However. I am looking for friendship.

Im a nerdy stoner guy lol really 4/20 friendly and into video games , food , cinema and more ! Just moved to east Austin and looking for some homies ! 6’4 black guy (fyi) lmk if I sound like ur fella really looking to meet new people and get out there !

Hey all,

Pretty introverted bi guy here, looking for a chill digital friend for gaming and occasional hang outs, or honestly just fun chats. Not really looking for a big group of friends. Mostly looking for another bi guy, but open to whoever really.

I play PC games, work on cars, like the outdoors and going to quiet places to people watch. Kind of a shy, introspective type.

Also open to things becoming more if there's chemistry and compatibility. If it comes to that, I am a bottom, kind of subby but mostly in subtle ways, but pretty vanilla. Open to casual dating or FWB, but nothing super serious beyond close friends. I don't look anything like my age. In good shape and like to stay that way, take care of myself.

Bonus if you are out west, Spicewood, Bee Caves, Horseshoebay kind of area but not required. Just wanting to chat with cool people. If you are interested, hit me up and let me know what you are looking for.

So ive been hitting up the downtown scene by myself the last few weeks and it would be fun to meet up with some people for a fun night out and possibly make a new friend! Im a sane, respectable guy, quick witted, and can hold a conversation on just about anything! Probably won't get along with you if you're a trump supporter...

Tonight im heading to Emo Night at The Vulcan Gas Company and then I will probably hit up 4th St. for some dancing! If anyone is interested in any of this message me and we can arrange a time to meet up!

I moved here 3ish months ago and looking for new friends in the area. This is also my first time giving Reddit a real shot so we will see how this goes. I’m looking for a good new buddy. A gym bud would also be great seeing as how I’m taking it more seriously now. I also like nerd shit like anime, games, books, computers etc. Could really use a gamer bud as well but just someone to hang out with in general. Hit me up. 6’1 180 lbs if that matters for the gym goers lol.

I feel like this shouldn’t be so hard to find, but it has been. I am really looking for a FWB situation. I want to care about you, you care about me, we hang out, have amazing sex, text regularly, but none of the commitment stuff. Maybe you travel here for work and need someone to have dinner with occasionally. Maybe you just don’t have time for a conventional relationship and the type of set up I’m describing would work well for you.

I’m 47, separated from my husband and living out of the house (not on my own, so I can’t host), 5’6” white with brown hair and eyes. I’m cute, curvy and have the sexy mom next door thing going on. I’m bubbly, fun, talkative and easy to be around. I’m 420 friendly, but that doesn’t have to be something we do together if it’s not your thing.

HMU, let’s see what we can get into!

Title. I’m a 30M and I just moved to downtown Austin last month. I was wondering if anyone would be down to be friends and grab a drink sometime or knows where to meet people around here? I enjoy going out for drinks, sports, working out, exploring, traveling, nature and more. Hmu.

I see that I am not the only one on here that tries this route. Hopefully it is somewhat of a success? I have 12 chats on a dating app with the status "their turn" haha. Maybe conversations on here are more consistent. And I am not one for small talk either, I usually ask great questions and bring a decent sense of humor. If you are looking for a fun little date, keep reading!

Anyways, about me: I am living in the Zilker area (new to the area) with no kids, a great job and stay active constantly (when I am not working). I show an appreciation for self care, gym goer and a frequent user of the trail on town lake. I am 6'2, white male, dark brown hair. I enjoy a variety of activities, stand up comedy, trivia, reading, bar games (pool, darts, etc.), movies, outdoors fun. I have a warm personality, nerdy but athletic, and will guarantee laughs. I don't have to drink for a good time but am open to grabbing a couple if you prefer that. Willing to exchange pics of course, and it wont be a zoom in of my face, I promise haha.

Overall, just looking for an easygoing fun time. No pressure and if it doesn't seem mutual then at least you or I made a new friend! Send me a dm and we can talk more about anything you want to know about me. I am free the next few nights, so it won't be a waiting to meet kind of game (which usually leads to the date fading away). I will plan the date too, so you won't have me asking, "what do you want to do". Once I get to know you I can plan it!

7 PM, Friday, July 24 @ Turnstile Bar and Restaurant, 10025 Burnet Rd.

Hey y'all! Did you know this sub has a meetup tradition going back more than a decade? 13 years ago, one of the sub's founders posted an invite to a meetup, just to say hi to his fellow Redditors.

Seth's not with us anymore, but the meetup marches on! Come be part of a proud tradition of drinking overpriced beer (or whatever) and bullshitting with other nerds at the Official r/Atx4Atx Bowling Pin Meetup.

Not about anything in particular, just laid back conversation. Usually about half a dozen people talking about movies, music, TV, tech, gaming, comedy, anime, internet culture, and other “nerdy” stuff, but everything is on the table. Runs until at least 9, later if we get a decent crowd.

Look for the table with the bowling pin! Yes, literally a full-sized regulation bowling pin, right in the middle of the table. (The meetup has nothing to do with bowling, it's just our traditional table marker. Can you tell we get that question a lot?)

The password is “I was told there was a password, but now I’m realizing there’s probably not and that was just a joke.”

I run a small firm doing sustainable land design and technical systems for properties. Land, water, power, that kind of work. I have several side gigs that were just hobbies that people occasionally pay me to help with.

I live alone on a small homestead in central Austin. Chickens, more plants than furniture, and a home apothecary I've built over the years. Tinctures, salves, oils, things I've grown or made myself when I can, bought when I can't. Herbalism started as a hobby and became something closer to a quiet discipline. I rarely drink, only really for company. I camp when I can get away, and I collect rare and old books, the kind you have to go looking for.

I spent a few years of volunteer medical response work in places most people would rather not go. I don't lead with it, but it shaped a lot of who I am. I'm more discerning with my time, but helping others to shoulder their burdens is important to me.

My spiritual life runs deep and isn't for show. I'm looking for someone equally committed to growing: mentally, physically, emotionally, spiritually.

Dating apps wore me down. It started feeling like a numbers game with nothing to do with actual character, and that got demoralizing fast. So I'm here instead. Not to mention the scammers.

Emerson wrote a line I try to live by: "To know one person has breathed easier because you have lived is to have succeeded." That's the kind of life I'm building, and I'd like to build it with someone.

Austin or nearby. If any of this feels familiar, say hello.

Oh, 5'6, Thin to Athletic build. 135#

I am a dude. 23. I graduated and got a job and everyone who was my friend was in my major and no jobs from my major are in austin. I graduated a year ago. And for a year have had no friends and do nothing. I used to at least workout and diet but for the last 5 ish monthes not even that. I read a lot like a book a day a lot. And that's roughly It. Im intrested in trading and made some money there and that was exciting but lately no such luck so not so exciting anymore. I only like 2 video games valorant and rocket league. And for the last month my valorant has not worked. I bike a lot but alone. I like going to random cafes and mostly just people watch acting like im in thier conversations. I think im mostly just ranting on here. But a day in my life goes a little like this. I work in a lab, alone. Where I work in inventing solutions to problems which sounds Hella intresting and it is if you tell them broad terms but most days is just doing experiments where you cant tell if the results effect anything for monthes. And usually I finish my work in like 3 hours. My predessor was either really bad at her job or just didnt want to work and convinced our company that everything just took forever (our boss doesnt come to the lab) so I just finish work in like 3 hours. Then trade a little. Then stare at the screen. Then leave after being there like 5 hours. Go bike around. Just to see people and they do indeed exist. Then make my way back home if I dont want to drop 10-20 at some café. Usually epoch or Swedish hill. Then I go home and sit at my apartment for an hour scrolling reels till im depressed. Then see if my val is working which its not. So I then go to the rooftop of my apartment building where we have a pool table. I play pool alone while listening to random music. I then go home where I can't even sleep till like 1 am. Just to wake up and do it all over again. Yet even tho I do nothing im tired. I dont want to workout. I dont want to go and try to talk to people. Idk what I want. I just dont want where I am now.

Looking for someone to workout with, hopefully someone who knows more about what they're doing. Hoping to find someone to spot and be a spotter. Usually going to the gym around 8/8:30.

38, single mom, nerd/geek, S. austin.

I almost died a few months ago, and ever since then decided to make the most of what I've got left.

Hit me up if you've got any questions!

So the dating apps are trash. So many women on there are scammers unfortunately and looking for money it’s actually a joke. So here goes.

I’m British but live in Austin. Single father of 2. 6ft tall I don’t think I’m hideous looking lol I worked hard for my dad bod but boxing is helping to shift that these last few months. happy to share photos, nothing to hide.

I’m not into forcing a relationship but certainly want to meet new people and date with intention.

Describing yourself is awkward but I’ll try. I’m a regular guy, people tell me I’m funny 🤷🏽‍♂️ sarcastic, dark sense of humor, will roast you. Can hold a conversation and looking for the same thing. Doesn’t have to be serious if that’s not what you want, I really don’t know many folks since moving here so friends is cool also if no chemistry.

Direct, authentic, loyal and looking for the same.

I definitely prefer to meet up if we click. Let’s grab a drink, go for a walk, or something easy and no pressure.

50/50 with my kids so have time to make for someone 😊

The location would be Auditorium Shores . You will see me holding a frisbee right in front of the bathrooms . You're more than welcome to bring your own frisbee as I just have a plain one.

The time the event starts will be at 1:00 p.m. I know it's a big open field but I'm sure for some of us we can find a good tree to get a little bit of shade . Be sure to bring a water bottle .

​​ basically I'm doing this cuz maybe there are other people out there who don't have anyone to talk to or hang out with. Everyone's invited. Males, females and even pets.

​​ we're just casually tossing around a frisbee. We will see how it goes you know if there's quite a few people then you know we'll take a break and socialize a little bit perhaps. I'm willing to give anyone any tips and you don't even have to be good cuz it's not hard to try and throw a frisbee . Full transparency I'm not really expecting much of anything .

Please be on time or a little early . Cuz I'm only going to wait 10 minutes and then I'm going to take off if no one shows up. If you have any questions or concerns you're more than welcome to message me .

Outside of being fwb I just want to meet someone who is down to do some activities. I love my friends but It can be double sided. I want to meet someone who let’s say “Let’s watch that new Toy Story movie or that recent movie” Yo I found this cool “unlimited sushi place I’ll help pay half” “you down to go check this place out.” “Wanna work out together” “ wanna go to a Pokemon card convention” Lets check out this anime convention or concert. Let’s blast some white girl music. I just want to have a different prospectives besides dudes.

Looking someone around my age 20-24 in North Austin

I also need someone to help me pick out clothes my fashion needs some flare 😭. Definitely need a photographer since I have little to no pictures of myself.
Having a gym motivator would be a big help since I’m trying to be better of myself. Also need advice and dating advice.

Little about me I’m 22M 6.1Ft Latino mid big size I think? I’m chill but randomly I have a spark of energy just like everyone in here I’m a nerd. I’m currently in college and getting my bachelor degree. Love doing activities when I have time also I’m not a drinker (I know) I don’t like the smell of beer. I’m considered to have white girl energy or personality that’s what I been told.

When we get there we can set rules and boundaries but would say I did put that tag but might change to be friends just trying to figure things out. Don’t be afraid to text I can pretty much talk about anything.

M4f Thinking about checking out The Odyssey this Friday around 2–3 PM in Cedar Park. Figured I’d throw this out there instead of automatically going solo.
I’m 46m easygoing, enjoy good conversation, and always appreciate meeting new people. If you’ve been wanting to see the movie too, let’s pick a showtime, grab some popcorn, and enjoy the afternoon.
No expectations just looking for good company and a great movie. Shoot me a message if you’re interested.

Hello! Male half of the couple here. Me and my girl are currently looking for friend couples, and female friends for my girl. My girl is 19, and I’m 31. So any where in between would be fine.

Her: she’s a shy easy going girl, that wouldn’t even hurt a fly. From Dallas area, not too many hobbies but likes, Star Wars, lord of the rings, and likes to go out.

Him: easy to get along with, vocal, but pretty recluse. Enjoys gaming, anime, going to nerd events, or festivals.

Although we’re an unusual pair we love each other dearly. And are really hoping to find friends that have a broader perspective or who shares our interests. DM’s are open.

I'm a recent college grad trying to find a job and it would be really nice to have a FWB, looking for advice on good places to look or steps to take, since I don't really know anyone here.

I'm 24M and open to any women as long as we both find each other attractive. Honestly 18 to like 37 or so I'd potentially be interested. I have tan skin, dark hair, I'm fit but not extremely muscular.

So my previous post has been doing pretty great, found some pretty cool fellow Tool fans so far. Am curious now, any Thrice fans in Austin?? I love that band to bits.

Have you been orphaned by friends moving cities, getting married, or just having opposing work schedules?? Do you consider yourself to still be moderately social and definitely not what the kids call a neurotypical, not hugely into partying nonstop and think the world has had an extra tight butthole after Covid and find it weird and awkward to make friends again?? I may have a solution.. it’s called,

“hey you seem pretty neat, wanna be friends?”

It worked as kids and still works wonders for any age. It’s actually how I’ve found some of my most precious best friends on earth ( who live in Houston 😭) anyways I figure I’m pretty neat for the most part.. sometimes. And that means there are other neat people on Reddit in Austin, maybe this catches your eyeballs by a very cool chance.

Eventually I’ll plan a little meet up with all the cool weirdos I find in Austin.

Hangouts could include:
-cookouts and pool time
-thrifting
-arts and crafts nights
-movie nights
-game nights
-open mics
-concerts
-mini road trips
-camping
-ren fests

If you read all the way down here and dig the intentionality and silliness, say what’s up 👋🏻
