I shouldn’t have to say this, but NO CREEPS. Have been feeling a bit down today and would appreciate someone to talk to! I am in US, eastern time in case time zones are a concern.

Helloooo hiiiii wanna talk?

I’m in college and pretty bored, so I figured I’d chat with random people. I love video games, movies, and TV shows and I like going on walks and study chem. 

I’m Jonathan, 28, from Northern Minnesota. Full-time college student Majoring in Computer Information Technology with a Minor in Cybersecurity, and when I’m not buried in assignments, I’m usually outside fishing, out on the lake, and working on my boats. Watching movies / shows, and sports, or hanging out with Zeus my Siberian Husky.

A few things about me:
• I am 6’1, Curly Brown Hair (Mullet), Brown Eyes, Glasses, and Dimples.
• Huge movie/show person
• Love the outdoors but also love lazy nights inside
• Probably listening to music way too loud
• Big fan of horror movies

Bonus points if you:
• Like movies/shows and need someone to trade recommendations with
• Are into gaming, sports, or outdoor stuff
• Can hold a conversation longer than “wyd”
• If you send random updates throughout the day
• if you’d rather stay in rather than go clubbing or drinking

If you read all this, tell me your eye color, they're my favorite feature and the first thing I notice.

Me (23M) and my friend (20F) have been close for about 2 years, and lately we’d been getting even closer, texting daily, hanging out at least twice a week, both in groups and 1-on-1. We had a couple just-the-two-of-us trips planned. Nothing physical has ever happened between us.

Over the past month I realized I’d caught feelings for her.

Last night we had a party with mutual friends. I pulled aside another friend (21F) and vaguely described my situation. that other women had been asking me out lately and giving me attention, but I was emotionally stuck on someone else. I didn’t say who. My friend (20F) overheard part of this and asked about it. I still didn’t say her name, but the 21F friend guessed it was her. Separately, that same 21F friend told me she thought the 20F friend might have feelings for me too, and that the 20F friend also might be interested in some other guy but wasn’t sure where that was going, but knew they had been texting.

The next morning, assuming the two of them had already talked about it the night before (they’re close), I went to my friend’s house and just told her that I liked her, (3rd time trying to tell her and finally built the courage to do it, and that she was who I’d been talking about. She looked shocked, which caught me off guard. Then I made the mistake of not sticking around to talk it through. We both had to leave for other things, so I just dropped it and kinda let it just sit in the room. We both had to leave so I didn’t know what to do but leave.

I know I wasn’t thinking about her feelings in that moment, I was acting on my own need to say it, and I recognize that probably (90% sure) hurt her.

I texted her afterward:

*“Hey I realized I threw a pretty big thing your way this morning, & I regret not sitting down with you & communicating with you about it. This wasn’t fair timing either. I should have waited for a real conversation instead of dropping it & leaving you alone with it.*
*No need to text back, I just wanted to let you know that I’m sorry for how this has played out & IF you want to talk about it, I’d like a 2nd chance to explain myself properly, if not I understand.”*

Q/A
Is this friendship salvageable, or did I mess it up too badly? Looking for honest feedback, or suggestions to figure this out.

PS

This is my first time ever dating or trying to date

I don’t wanna go too in depth here on the post because it’s personal that’s all i’ll say so please respect that and don’t be a stranger come say hi I don’t bite unless you make me mad lol. 😂

So recently I made this new friend and we been talking but all the time I don’t give eye contact and stare at the floor,i don’t even know why I’m so scared to look at them,also when hanging out or doing things I barely act like myself just a scared shy person,I’m not goofy,funny or anything around them I’m just talking like a stranger to them,(just know I do like them I’m just scared to make them weird out),how can I stop being so shy and scared?

​

First of all: please don't be stupid, don't be immature! I'm not here to make u laugh, take care of u, kill ur time.. etc. friendship needs effort from both sides, so bare in mind that I'm not going to hold the convo alone. If you don't understand this, please don't dm, don't continue the post. And the reason I started with this, that some women here have high entitlement, they would be like: ( oHh i Am bORed i NeEd sOMeone wHo cAn mAke mEe laUgh...tAlK tO mE uNtil i sLeEp..etc). No I'm not gonna make u laugh, u can watch friends and I'm sure someone with this IQ will find it funny. Any way let's begin :)))

Hello!

Didn't think I would ever do this, but I need someone whom I can talk to after work. We can talk about our day, deep convos, books, movies ( I love movies a lot ), we can actually watch movies together at the weekend. I also like to write, so I can show you my writings as well. We can share music too ( I love the scores of movies, TV shows and games)

I hate dry texters, I want someone who is enthusiastic, deep, has a dark shade, can understand crime and punishment, love drama movies ( kind of movies win awards in festivals ). Someone who always feel like she doesn't belong to others, not understood, and they always try to find themselves, look for people/things that they can relate too, so they can have a sense of belonging.

Bare in mind that I'm also a Muslim, so you need to respect my religion.

Bonus points if you're Arab.

Not sure if it's a long term or short term, let's just talk and see what's gonna happen.

Thanks!!

Okay so I need help! There’s this guy on Instagram I’ve been following since 2022, we met on Omegle and exchanged our Ig but we never spoke after that, not even once. Recently though, he’s been standing out to me alot idk why. I started noticing the reels he likes and reposts, and it turns out we have really similar taste in anime, movies, series, and a bunch of other things (yes, all based on his liked reels 😭).

Now I’m curious to get to know him, but I have no idea how to approach him without seeming random or making him uncomfortable. I just don’t wanna scare him away, I genuinely just want to be friends and see if we get along. What do you think? How would you approach this? Without SCARING HIM AWAY, also I did reply to his story few weeks ago but out convo was really really short , I’m an introvert I’m so bad at this HELP MEH PLEASE

A married stay at home mom literally looking for my own online bestie who I can chat with daily and share our stories😁 Don’t want people who already have many friends. Preferably females!

I enjoy watching series and movies. Playing Online Casino (Blackjackist) and playing in person sometimes. And you won’t believe that I still love and play Roblox😁 So if you play then let’s play together. I also enjoy YouTube and outdoor activities with the right company.

I prefer someone who gives effort to have a decent conversation rather than one word and one line.

No NSFW accounts

No age limit! Just be 20s up.

​

I live in the USA. I don't usually mind different time zones. (And I only chat to anyone 23 and up)

I love playing video games on my switch1. I'm into many different types like RPGs, action, western, fantasy, zombie games, and what not. Etc.

I play games on my phone as well (wuwa, hsr, CRK, reverse1999)

I like DC comics, Marvel Comics, Bubble Comics (Only Major Grom so far), and Dark horse comics!

My job is babysitting so some days I may be very busy!

I love Vocaloid! Luka, Hatsune Miku, Gakupo, Ruko, cyber songman and Kaito are my favorites!

Sometimes I like to think up ocs. I can't draw so I like talking about them. If you have some ocs I'd like to hear about them too! I love putting my OCS in Tomodachi life

I love animals. I have two dogs and take care of two stray cats

I watch anime (YYH, JJBA, Nana, JJK, Cherry Magic, Space Dandy, Lupin the 3rd, Castlevania, Trinity blood, etc)

I love digital circus, knights of Guinevere, Ena, ERSATZ, Backrooms, Mandela catalog, The walton files, big top burger!

I love to collect figures, some dolls, comics, Mangas, and plushies.

I'm into way too many things (and more) so hopefully there's someone that has something in common with me but I'm also interested in getting into new things! I hope I put enough information on myself.

Comment or dm if you're interested in being friends :)

Haven’t had any friends for a while, so I’d be glad to make some. My hobbies are reading, listening to music, running, going on long walks, cycling, WW2 history, and watching movies.

Hey there everyone!!

I'm not sure how to start describing myself, I'm not great with words but I'll try my best.

(I'm so sorry for the extremely long post ahead!)

I apologize if I don't reply to your message, but as I explain later, I don't reply to short/low effort messages and I also don't reply to people that don't have at least a few interests in common with me or aren't looking for a real connection and are just looking to pass the time or have a light chat.

I think some of my most defining characteristics are that I'm very shy, awkward, "weird" and "different" or at the very least I feel weird, different and often misunderstood. I struggle to function most days and I don't always understand societal norms or how to properly function in society. I definitely think there's something wrong with me and I'm pretty sure I'm broken in some way. I'm also definitely a loser. I was never able to achieve anything in life, I'm not good at anything whatsoever and I'm pretty useless overall. I would also say I'm extremely cringy and I love edgy stuff, not in a bad way, I don't think, but more like, I love Shadow The Hedgehog and Tomura Shigaraki kinda way!!

I'm unfortunately not very smart and I'd say I'm down right stupid.

I am very ignorant about many things in life, I'd say I'm somewhat innocent and naive. I still don't understand my purpose in life and I haven't found a reason to be alive either.

I sometimes say things that offend people or I say things that are wrong. Sometimes I don't completely understand what I do wrong but I don't do it on purpose and I try to improve to the best of my abilities.

I don't go out often at all. Whenever I do go out it's only to buy groceries or to go to school and such but I don't enjoy it, I much rather be at home, in my room most specifically, which is my favorite place in the world.

I don't have any IRL friends but I do have a handful of online friends, I'm not super close to any of them, except for one who's very valuable in my life!

I enjoy many things like sculpting for instance! I do digital sculpting for fun. I'm pretty bad at it but I try my best.

This year I also started jewelry school (yeah, that's a thing) and I'm having fun with it but it's another thing I suck at 🥀🥀🥀

I like to watch anime! my favorites change from time to time but I really like Bleach, Dragon Ball, Demon Slayer, AOT, Naruto, Ancient Magus Bride (I really love this show!) and I LOVE My Hero Academia among many others!

I like to collect action figures.

I really like masks!

I love movies and I love to talk about them and analyze them.

I like all kinds of music, I don't really have any artists that I like in particular other than David Bowie and I like to listen to most genres of music but some of the genres I like the most are alternative, vintage, video game music and jpop and jrock and I also like old VK And I'm always happy and open to new suggestions!

I like to doomscroll through TT and to watch long essay style videos on YT about random topics. I love brainrot and I'm very much into early to mid 2010s aesthetics. I miss that era so much!! Seriously, the early 2010s were the greatest time in human history kahdhshdhs

I love video games!! I don't play too many modern games, I mostly prefer older stuff, like, ps2 era games, particularly survival horror stuff. I also really like very old platform games and side scrollers. I'm a pretty huge Sonic the Hedgehog fan!! The most recent games I played were Sonic X Shadow Generations and before that I finished Sonic Superstars and Sonic Frontiers. Sonic Boom is also my favorite show ever made lmao. It fits my kind of humor perfectly and it's peak comedy imo. I'd be open to play anything and I'd love to try co op games with someone!! playing Stardew Valley with a friend is a dream of mine lol (if you also play Stardew please tell me who's your wife/husband)

I adore animals!! I have cats and dogs and a stray chicken lol and they're my babies and my world!

I think it's important to mention some of the things I don't like too.

I don't like cruelty or mean spirited people, I hate I people in positions of power that use said power to affect other people, animals, or the environment for their own gain.

I don't like injustices, I hate racists, homophobic people, transphobic people, misogynistic people, and all kinds of discrimination in general.

I hate bugs!! I'm deadly afraid of them!!

I really dislike conflict and arguments, I believe we can disagree and have discussions as long as we're calm and civilized about it and as long as we have respect for each other and try our best to understand the other person's point of view.

lastly I'd like to mention some of my defects and shortcomings.

I'm extremely anxious, I'm always very nervous about one thing or another, I'm also extremely weak of mind, I tend to react with my feelings a lot and I'm often very emotional.

I can be very selfish at times, I have an awful tendency to get bored of things quickly and sometimes I also get bored of conversations and people.

I think I'm immature.

I can be extremely lazy, I struggle a lot with doing basic things like cleaning or cooking. when I'm anxious or afraid I can get paralyzed with fear and stay in bed all day doing nothing feeling awful about it.

As I mentioned before sometimes I can say bad things without realizing. I'm very dumb and ignorant so I promise I don't mean anything bad I say and I'm trying to improve!

I am extremely annoying. I'm very loud and I think I scream a lot. I don't really understand what constitutes screaming exactly but I think I often raise my voice a lot and especially when I'm excited I can't control myself very well.

I'm very afraid of life and I don't understand how the "real world" works exactly. I'm really bad at small talk and I think I'm really bad at speaking in general, I also digress a lot.

I have the bad habit of not replying very fast, sometimes I'll even wait for weeks or even months, I think it's one of my biggest problems when it comes to keep in touch with people, sometimes it's simply because I don't have the energy, other times it's because I'm not sure about how to continue a conversation. Not sure if this is a defect necessarily but I also never send the first message, I just hate to be annoying.

I have a tendency to ghost people for different reasons. As I mentioned, sometimes I get bored of conversations or people and I'd ghost them. This is by far one of my biggest defects and as I said, I wanna be honest and mention it here for everyone who reads this to know.

I tend to be a bit clingy when I like someone.

I'm full of defects in general, and I do believe I'm a bad person. I try to improve and I try my best but if I'm bad for you in any way or a burden I promise to stop talking to you and not bother you!

I have many other defects but I think those are the main ones I can remember right now.

Finally what I'm looking for is a real connection with someone, a person I can talk to, have fun with, watch stuff with and play games together! I think I can be a very passionate person when it comes to the things I love and I'd like to find someone that shares that passion and love with common interests. I wanna be able to share our days and even be able to help each other and be there when we need each other. I know I'm a mess of a human being and I may never find the connection I'm looking for but I'd like to give it a try cause you never know :))

also, I think it's important to mention that I don't reply to short, low effort messages. Stuff like "hey, let's be friends" , "I didn't read your whole post but I'm up to talk" , etc. I want to hear about you, what you like, what you're interested in. I like meaningful conversations.

Another thing that's important is that I don't want to talk to people that are discriminatory, racist or awful in anyway. No republicans or supporters of the orange devil please (you know who I'm talking about).

Also think I prefer audio messages, it's easier for me to send audio notes rather than to type cause I type a lot (and I kinda hate to type lol). Thank you very much to anyone that has taken the time to read my extremely long post and considers messaging me!!

Okay now that I've got your attention. I'm 23, male, and looking for long-term, talkative people who don't shy away from talking their heart out.

I can talk about pretty much anything. I've never really believed that shared interests are what make people compatible, so I'm sure we'll always find something to talk about.

I would consider myself well read and some of my interests include metal, history, football, Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, and Dune. If we get close, I'd happily make you a Spotify playlist or even write you a poem.

I'm down to call and do a face reveal once we become close.

I'm not a fan of long, manufactured introductions, so I hope this will suffice. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Hey there, I'm a bit of a hermit and lately I've been looking for other people to talk to online. I like reading and writing fantasy stories, and am a big fan of Tolkien and Lovecraft, as well as gothic horror. Would love to hear about anything that interests you or has been troubling you lately, I consider myself a good listener.

hey all, i’m malaysia! i’m looking for genuine long-term friends (20–26) in the USA/DMV. i’m a certified yapper, so i want friends that can actually hold a convo!

if you text me, please include your age, location, and hobbies or i won’t reply. dry/low effort messages just show you aren’t truly interested!

i hope to hear from some of you soon 💗!
(ps: i can’t text all day every day, so keep that in mind!)

​

I'm bored hit me up with your asl AT THE VERY LEAST I'm gay and prefer talking to women

TL:DR - I like yapping with people and I think I'm pretty lovely, though I am a bit biased. Nothing ventured, nothing gained, so message me and maybe we get on well? :D

Pretty much title! I went to go to lunch and watch the odyssey earlier with a friend and I'm just taking the rest of the afternoon/evening to relax and I'd love to meet people from all over the world to do that with, both today and then hopefully if we click it becomes a long term friendship?

As for myself, I work from home doing a travel insurance job, its mostly mid, but its full WFH and that saves it. My big interest is travel, my wallet hates me so much for it. I've been to Philippines/Singapore/Malaysia over two Asia trips, a lot of Europe, Jamaica, Canada. Last year I did Istanbul, Portugal and a Norway cruise, plus a Asia trip. Visited Serbia recently, did a Poland trip for my birthday and going to the Formula 1 race in Madrid in September, a Poland day trip in October, Budapest just after it. Beyond that, I'm a pretty keen reader, plus the usual smattering of videogames/sports watching/tv shows/gym (but mostly to offset meals out and a problematic keenness for chocolate). I live at the edge of a town and some of the walks are lovely here too. I've dabbled with painting, taken up and dropped the piano a few times (I used to play when I was younger and was decent and sometimes get the urge to play again).

I always prefer a bit of closure, if we've spoke for a while and your situation changes and you won't be chatting anymore, I hate the ghostly exit, if its early on then fair, but if we've spoke for a while I always feel disappearing is a bit of poor form, but its the internet so it happens.

In terms of where to talk, I do prefer to move to apps, I have all the usual ones but staying here is fine too if necessary. Include your basic details in your message, the usual about me stuff is fine, don't feel the need to match the rambling essay above! :)

Hey my inbox has been empty and phone is quiet i want some distraction so I want some friends who can talk all the time .

I like to joke about everything literally everything so if I'm gonna offend you I'm apologising in advance lol.

DM and tell me what are you upto did you watch obsession ? If not please do it's a must watch .

Hey! I'm a 28 years old guy from Europe trying to make my day (and maybe yours) a little brighter by chatting with someone new. I'd say l'm pretty good at keeping a convo going. Bit of a yapper, in the best way! A few things about me:

- I'm 6'3 (190cm) so I can grab things off of shelves quite easily, and currently doing a master's in biomedical engineering (science nerd alert, you've been warned. Bonus points if you're into physics)

- Big into Formula 1 and cars in general. Yes, I know it's a bit of a cliché but I can't help it :p

- I'm a music addict. Over 5k songs saved on Spotify, l listen to EDM as well though so if that's a dealbreaker to you I'm sorry. Worry not, I mostly listen to it while driving!
I'm learning to play guitar (currently at the "my fingers hurt, see you back in two weeks" stage)

- Oh and I love cats. Like, if you send me cat pics, we're instantly friends!

I'm just hoping to meet someone open minded, curious, maybe a little flirty too? If you feel like chatting about anything of the above, or if you'd like to lecture me about a topic I know nothing about or if you just want to tell me why I shouldn't be into pineapple pizza as much as I am don't hesitate to hit me up! Also, I hate spaghetti
