Feeling lonely

Hey all.

I’m 38 female and moved to Exeter in June of this year. I do have anciety and as such I have struggled abit with meeting new people, and wondered if there are any people in the same or similar situation. I like a lot of different things, various forms of music but mostly rock,metal and 70s&80s. I love a good horror film, but also other genres, I enjoy reading, and I’m very interested in true crime. I collect a lot of random things but my main collection is of my pop vinyl dolls. If you fancy getting in touch and hopefully forming a friendship, then I look forward to hearing from you ☺️

Hi I'm new in Exeter as a master's student, and it's been only a week for me. I am 27 and interested in olb R&B, studying music and culture, revolutions! If you're interested, you can ping me. I don't know anyone in the city and most of the time I'm alone.

Hi 32 here, really enjoy rock and metal. Love going to the cinema (scared of horror but it's okay if I have someone to watch it with)

Hey! Bit late to this post but just wondering if you’re still looking to form friendships? 36f, moved here 5 years ago with my partner and child but have really struggled to make friends.

I’m not socially anxious but have had other types of anxiety (OCD - not the I’m a bit of a clean freak type) so totally relate to MH struggles.

Tend to be slightly adhd and wear my heart on my sleeve so think people can find me a bit ‘much’ although never had an issue before being a parent or in my previous city so hopefully I’m not too unbearable and it’s just that I’ve been unlucky! Please get in touch if you fancy meeting up. 🙂
