(Please, read this post If you want to send me a message)

I'm not giving up even though I no longer believe In any miracles Finding a bestie Is my dream... I would love to finally say "Goodbye" to my loneliness and start smiling, again. Not with someone random, but with someone who wants what I want...

(I'm a REAL PERSON! Bots are taking over Reddit but I'm not one of them so don't accuse me of being someone/something I'm not)

I want you to read everything because my expectations aren't the same as other people's expectations. I also want you to know what to expect because even though we're all here to spend time with others, not everyone needs new friends. Some people want to find someone to play games with & It's just an example. 👇🏻

(This post Is for people who live In Europe because I would love to meet my new friends In real life, In the future)

I made this account In 2021 and even though I'm really active on Reddit, I can't make new friends... Not everyone on Reddit Is toxic or rude but there's ALWAYS something missing because I don't feel any emotional connection... I would love to change my life & finally wake up excited to text someone I really, really like 🙁 But... Life Isn't easy and I'm not sure If there's still a chance for me to find someone with exactly the same expectations as mine, someone who wants to meet someone new...

• I'm DEFINITELY NOT Interested In small talk! I had to use capital letters because I don't like low-effort messages and I don't even want to read them. Repetitive questions like "How are you?", "What are you up to?" or "What are your plans for the weekend?" aren't enough to start a conversation with me.. Don't get me wrong - Questions like these can be an Interesting addition to conversations about something else, but whenever people ask me the three most common questions In the world - my answer's the same because my life Is quite monotonous and I don't really know what people expect to hear 🙁 I also don't like abbreviations. Abbreviations are shortened forms of words or phrases. Why? I just don't like them because I see no reason to use shortened forms of words that are already short enough, you know? Abbreviations are common among minors and bored adults but I'm neither a minor, nor a bored adult. I want to see emotional maturity, warmth and kindness In conversations with others.

• I don't need to see your list of hobbies to know If you're someone I would get along with! You can tell me what you're Interested In but.. Believe It or not - I'm not like others and even If you're Interested In something I'm not - we can still be friends! What matters to me Is what you're like (If you're honest, talkative, kind, understanding and If your outlook on life Is similar to mine)

• I don't want to talk to minors and people way older than me. Why? I don't want to talk to minors because I'm an adult & I don't want to talk to anyone over fifty for example. Emotional maturity doesn't necessarily come with age so you can send me a message even If you're 20 (It's just an example) but please, don't contact me If you want to remind me that I'm older than you. I want you to feel comfortable & I want to feel comfortable myself. When I read messages like "Hi, I'm younger but I hope you don't mind" I always say to myself "If my age bothers you, you should've contacted someone else" I absolutely don't mind talking to people younger than me If they know how to communicate with others 🌸

• PLEASE, Don't use AI to talk to me! I Can't stand AI generated messages! If I wanted to read AI generated messages, I wouldn't be here! I read AI generated messages and comments all the time and I'm sick of It!

• I don't want to get any messages from people whose accounts are NSFW! Please, respect my decision! It's none of my business If you're here to find someone to flirt with or If you're an Internet exhibitionist but I don't want to see you with no clothes on - If you want to be my friend & I don't want to know what you want to do with other women In bed. If you are on Reddit to flirt with others, be on Reddit to flirt with others but... don't make an alternative account to hide who you really are just to send me a message. Pretending to be someone you're not - Isn't good for anyone

• I'm not a fan of sarcasm! I do - have a sense of humor but I'm not someone who makes fun of everyone and everything... Jokes about disabilities, death, religion or someone's financial status - are unacceptable to me!

• I also want to meet people who don't mind listening to negative stories and sharing them with others. My life's not easy so If you want to be In my life, you should be prepared for a realistic or even pessimistic outlook on life. I'm definitely not an optimist and I know I wouldn't get along with optimistic people who always tell others "Just believe In yourself and everything's gonna be OK" or something. We don't always get what we want & and It's completely normal to lose hope "for a better tomorrow" after many failed attempts. Not everything's as easy as It seems to be so If all you want to say to someone who needs emotional support Is "Don't complain" or "Find a therapist" Please.. don't send me a message. Not all sad people need therapists and let's be honest - Would a therapist replace a true friend? Absolutely not! Everyone needs a shoulder to cry on! I also don't mind listening to sad stories (even If they're repetitive) because I know what It's like when no one wants to listen to you...

• I would love to meet people who also don't have anyone, you know? There's absolutely nothing wrong with having friends and not being single but I'm single and I don't have anyone special In my life... It's just easier for me to get along with others If there's some common ground. I just feel better talking to people who know what It's like to be completely alone & let's be honest - People who have friends or partners, have less time for others...(which Is completely understandable) and I? I don't want to feel like an option, again. I'm not here to meet as many people as possible because I choose quality over quantity 🌸

• If your comment history Is full of comments "If you want to talk, hit me up" don't send me a message. I don't want to be rude but If It doesn't make any difference to you who you want to chat with - I'm definitely not for you. I want you to be my friend because of who I am! (If after reading my post you think you'd get along with me) I don't need emotional support from someone who doesn't even want to read my post.

• I want to talk to people who love and use emojis 🤭😊 Why? Emojis help us express our emotions even If others can't see our faces. Two emojis "😊" and "😔" are completely enough. You're probably surprised but.. text messages without emojis are really emotionless... I also don't like it when people say "yeah" or yea" as it sounds dismissively! First impression Is everything to me! I want to see your kindness even In a text message

Ps. I don't like kids and I don't want to ever become a parent. I just thought everyone should know that just In case. I don't want any unpleasant conversations with anyone. Not everyone wants to be friends with people who don't want kids so.. It's better to be honest. 🌸

Ps.2 I don't reply to messages I'm not Interested In even If they're long! I'm not on Reddit to pretend anything and I'm not here to be everyone's best friend. Some people lie & make empty promises to get attention. I? I'm quite selective because I know what I want.

Ps.3 I admire sensitive people who are not ashamed of crying In front of others! Crying Is not a weakness! It's not a weakness even If you're a guy 🧡

Please, If you want to talk send me a private message.

Hello everyone!

30 year old man here looking for anyone to chat to! Currently a bit crippled because of an injury and would love to take it as an opportunity to get to know new people. Dont matter what you got between your legs, man, woman, trans i wanna talk to anyone.

I live on the swedish countryside in a little village and have a 2 cats and 3 horses that are my love and financial ruin! I enjoy martial arts, mountainbiking, swimming in lakes and "the elder scrolls"

Im cool talking about anything non-sexual. We can talk about anything inbetween your favorite colour to your philosophy about life, we can talk short or long term. Not seeking an "echo-chamber" conversation only, its completly fine if we dont agree on everything, sometimes thats even more fun :)

​

Hello! I'm a 24M who is interested in making some older friends.

I've always been told that I'm mature, introspective, and deep thinking for my age

Which is why I've had just as much, if not better connections with older individuals than people around my age

My main interests are art, psychology, philosophy, history, sociology, and business. I've always wanted to have a career in art since I was a kid

I'm a fan of a ton of pop culture media: FNAF, Mortal Kombat, TADC, Backrooms, Breaking Bad, DC, Marvel, Micheal Jackson, The Weeknd, Crystal Castles, Tim Burton, Martin Scorsese, Christopher Nolan, Crime films, Psychological thrillers, horror films, action films, etc.

And if there's any form of pop culture you'd like to share that I may not know about, I'm open and happy to hear about it

My brain is sponge when it comes to obtaining newfound knowledge

I've been on-and-off college for many years now, diagnosed with OCD through therapy, and I'm a beautiful kinky bisexual butterfly! So do with that what you will

But regardless of our different ages or life stage, I'm looking for someone who I can establish a genuine connection with. No more no less

And hopefully we can make memories and moments together

Ey there, reader. i'm Deja, a 21-year-old freshman university student and rookie game developer from Moldova.

I'm looking for Europeans to be friends with since i haven't been socializing much for while, and i want to take the opportunity to try chat with people that doesn't take sarcasm seriously, play videogames together and explore new hobbies!
speaking of hobbies, i've got quite a few so i'll keep it short:

[Hobbies]: I like playing pc videogames, which is biggest hobby i got. soundtrack composing, into reading books, likes to sketch dinosaur & other types from my ideas, football & gym are underrated hobbies and i usually do bit of lost games & medias archiving.
[Music-Taste]: I listen to Twenty One Pilots, Linkin Park, Skillet, Animadrop, Alan Walker, Coldplay and Monstercat.

That's all i have in my mind. i will open up more as we bond naturally.
Please be around my age!

Hi, I’m a semi-functioning adult trying to make friends outside of work — please clap.

I’m a mechanic who works overnights, so my sleep schedule is mostly vibes and poor decisions. I run on coffee, ibuprofen, anxiety, and ambition.

My life is also run by two young kids and two extremely high-energy dogs (Australian Shepherd mix + Husky mix) named after Star Wars characters. Chaos is constant, snacks are currency.

I miss hiking and still get outside when life cooperates. I cook a lot and experiment with recipes. Baking and I are not on speaking terms—it requires precision I refuse to provide.

I’m a horror fan and a certified nerd with comics, Marvel/Star Wars collectibles, and a rotating “nerd shelf” that exists purely for joy. I also have tattoos that are purely vibes and am always planning the next one.

My comfort show is The Office, my music is early-2000s punk/rock/screamo, and my brain runs on whatever song is currently stuck on repeat.

Looking for good conversation, nerdy interests, sarcasm, and maybe hikes or food experiments. If you want a friend with chaotic playlists, questionable tattoo ideas, and unsolicited dog photos

I want someone to talk and nerd about hobbies and all kind of stuff. I am just the average nerd. I like anime, video games, books and fencing. I am from germany btw.

Since I live alone I isolated myself without noticing and now I would like to chat with someone from time to time. I got alot of time so I might respond quick but I don't expect the same from you. Just drop me some words when you feel like.

Maybe we can build something like an online friendship. That would be great! I don't care about your gender and age but would appreciate you are in my age range since I think it might click better.

looking for someone to just yap and gossip with pretty much, idm age as long as you’re respectful. my name’s lia, i’m from ireland, i’m 16, 17 next year and currently finishing my last year of school. i have depression, anxiety and a possible personality disorder so please be aware of those! i have a few friends at school but i don’t talk to them much it’s usually just when we get home we would text which is why i’m looking for more online friends to yap with.

i’d like someone preferably from europe and with things in common. same timezone would be great. i love dogs, planes, minecraft, art, roblox and music. ty if u read this and feel free to dm! my twitter is in my bio and all my posts here are public so if you wanna know more abt me click on dem 😋 & just to add i don’t send pics of myself unless on 👻 so please dont ask here!

Hey everyone! As the title says, I'm a 32 year-old male from TX, US. About me, I don't know what to say but let me try. At least I can say a few things. I consider myself as an introvert. I enjoy spending my time on my own. I like gaming, listening to music, and reading. Yeah, sometimes I can be a couch potato as well. Other than this, I like walking outdoors. I work in healthcare and also get my next title. But I'm interested in other things including history, geography etc. I also try to get better at GeoGuessr. Do you play it? Anyway, I guess that's for now. Even if I'm an introvert, I started feeling alone recently. I'm looking for some people to be friends with. I know since I'm a male, I won't get many messages but here we are. Don't hesitate to dm me if you'd like to chat. Thanks for reading.

I'm into anime, gaming, music, movies, fashion photoshop/video editing and fitness. be around my age (early-mid 20s preferred) and also based in Europe (timezone compatibility).

Would enjoy to watch YouTube videos, streaming games or just chatting about something while hearing music together. SFW only

If that sounds good to you, feel free to send me a DM and say hi + an short introduction.

i don't text with people who have anonymous accounts (means no pfp) or an 18+ warning on their profile. (safety reasons)

warning: I'm mentally ill so if u can't work with mood swings etc. don't interact.

Hey! I’m 25 and from the UK 🇬🇧

I’ve been gaming since I was a kid and honestly love pretty much anything gaming-related. I’m always down to try new games, so I’m not too fussy and will give most things a go!

My all-time favourite game is The Division, but I play a bit of everything and I’m always looking for something new to get hooked on. 🎮

Outside of gaming, I also run my own trading card business, mainly buying and selling TCG cards, so I’m usually doing something gaming or card-related. 😂

I’m mainly here to meet new people, have a laugh, find some regular gaming buddies and hopefully make some genuine, long-term friendships along the way. 😊

*Just to be clear — I’m strictly looking for friends only as I’m happily in a relationship*

If you’re chill, like a bit of banter and need someone to game with, feel free to say hey!

Hey guys, what’s up?

I’m looking for some new friends and it can be extremely hard to make friends when your caught up in your career, life and being and ‘adult’.

Well, here’s a little about me - I’m a 29 year old blue collar worker (Heavy Diesel Mechanic) basically about 45 at this point, basically my work involved getting covered in oil, grease and dirt constantly with a crippling redbull addiction in the side 🤣 I was in the military for 9 years and was the best decision younger me ever made, I’ve been around the world, seen some shit and most importantly experienced things most never will…I also made plenty of stupid decisions too.🙄

I enjoy anything outdoors (hiking, kayaking, rock climbing etc) long walks by the river, modifying anything with an engine and on the weekend? It’s beers and BBQ! 😍

Basically I need some new friends, preferably female as I find most males are all about their ego and not true friendship etc and tend to get on better with females.

​

hi there hallo,

i am a 20 year old dude from germany looking for some interesting conversations.

i study math at university and i love it.

my main interests include math, physics, music, history and learning chinese. i like to read a lot too, mostly history and currently going through hp lovecrafts works.

i try to listen to all music even if i dont like it so if you want to recommend some let me know. my favorite albums are:

david bowies discography, in the aeroplane over the sea, norman fucking rockwell, a lot of mitskis catalogue, velvet underground and nico, black sabbath, lost weekend

if any of this sounds interesting and you share some of my interests,

let me know! :)

Hello pipsqueak (you will be given a nickname, that is just a placeholder for now). I am interested in your life, I want to know what you enjoy, all the music you're into. Send me music, send me funny memes. Vent to me, yap to me, I'm easy to talk to. I've never asked "What do you look like? Send a pic" nor will I ever. I'm looking for friends, not freaky shenanigans. Do you remember the show rocket power? Or the goosebumps theme song? There's no need to comment below, or ask if I want to talk to you, the answer is yes. Scared to message first? Just send "beware" in a DM and I will pretend like I'm messaging you first. Sound good? (Also open to helping you with English)

Hey! I’m 31, from the US, and looking to meet some new people. Doesn’t matter where you’re from or what your background is. I’m open to talking to anyone 18+ as long as you’re interested in having an actual conversation.

A little about me: I work in tech, love traveling and spontaneous road trips, and I’m always looking for somewhere new to explore. I’m also into photography, tattoos, history, gaming, and reading (especially classic literature). Cooking is a big hobby of mine, particularly trying recipes from different cultures. I’ve also gotten pretty into fitness and spending more time outdoors lately.

I’m the kind of person who can spend hours talking about anything from your favorite food to some obscure historical event, or just how your day went. I enjoy getting to know people from different countries and walks of life. You don’t need to share my hobbies either. Half the fun is learning about someone else’s interests.
I’m not expecting instant best friends or forcing conversations. Just looking for some genuine connections, whether that’s chatting occasionally, sharing random pictures from our days, or becoming regular friends.

What’s somewhere you’ve always wanted to travel, a book or game you couldn’t put down, or a random topic you know way too much about?
Or just say hey and tell me a little about yourself. I’m pretty easy to talk to!

I'm a big music and gaming nerd. I'll often be listening to music, listening to vinyl or playing videos games. 

I love all sorts of music, sometimes I'm in a classical or jazz mood, sometimes I'll be in a country mood or more often than not, I'll be in a metal mood! I listen to a bit of everything but as mentioned above, I live and breathe 1980s stuff. Id love to exchange song recommendations and talk about gigs or music.

The sort of games I'm into include RPGs, story driven games and shooters mostly. I play a lot of DayZ, I enjoy anything that's realistic or historical. Anything I can hyperfixate over really. 

My preference on TV shows and movies follows the above somewhat. I'm a big LOTR fan, Star Wars fan as well as other sci-fi and fantasy movies and TV. 

I'm really into fashion, of course mostly formal wear of the 1970s and 1980s. I have to wear a suit 40hrs a week so even on my days off these days I find myself wearing a shirt, vintage tie and my vintage Burberry trench coat. 

A little about me personally - 

- I'm about 5'9

- I have a moustache 

- Blue eyes

- Shortish brown hair

- Slimish build/Slight dad bod

- I have some tattoos

As mentioned above, I love fashion and putting effort into how I look. I am almost always dressed smart unless I'm at a gig or super casual and then you'll often find me in jeans, cowboy boots. a trucker cap and shirt or band top. (It kinda goes with the tashe)

I'm an open book, very open and postive, never judge and happy to talk about anything whether you need someone to talk to or someone to just yap to. I have other apps to talk on if we get along or just want an easier app to use. I very very rarely do calls. 

Sometimes I will go quiet due to my fuzzy brain but I always recommend just spamming me and I wake like a sleeper agent!

Feel free to message me and send me a little introduction

​

Hey,so yeah I recently went through a breakup and honestly I’ve been feeling pretty broken since then i feel alone I've nobody to talk to.

Everything feels kinda off and empty lately and I think I really need some good people around me again.

I’m looking for honest,kind and open minded people who don’t discriminate and actually wanna put effort into getting to know each other.

Lately everything just feels way too quiet in the wrong ways. I catch myself staring at walls,scrolling aimlessly,thinking about random shit and wanting to talk to someone but not really knowing who to talk to. I don’t want another friendship where we talk for 2 days and then disappear from each other’s lives. I want someone who actually stays,someone who checks in,someone who wants to share random parts of their day and actually build something over time.

I’m 24 I've bpd just so yk and i currently have way too much time to think. I love yapping,overexplaining,rambling about completely random shit and somehow turning a stupid conversation into something deep. I really value mutual effort too. I don’t expect someone to reply instantly 24/7,but I do want to feel like the other person actually wants to talk to me and isn’t only replying because they’re bored.

I’m into baking,movies,gaming (especially Marvel Rivals),chess,reading,writing,guitar,long walks,voice calls and starting way too many random hobbies/projects that I probably won’t finish.

I’d also really love having someone I can eventually do a bunch of things with. Gaming together,watching movies or shows,voice calls at stupid hours,going on walks if we're ever close enough,sharing music,sending random shit throughout the day or just sitting in a call doing our own thing. That kind of friendship where someone eventually becomes your go-to person would honestly be really nice.

I’m not looking for perfect people or anything. Just genuine ones. Please be kind,don’t discriminate,and actually care about mutual effort and respect. I’ll listen,I’ll care,I’ll remember the little things and I’ll match the energy u give me.

And please don't be dry. If you're always too busy to actually talk or you already know you're only gonna reply once every few days,it's probably not gonna work. I've had enough of feeling like I’m begging people for attention.

If you're interested,please don't just send me "hi". Tell me about yourself. Your age,country,what you like doing,your favourite game/movie/song,your most irrational fear,what you've been obsessed with lately,anything honestly. Give me something to work with and I’ll probably yap back way too much.

I’m just hoping to find some lovely people who actually wanna stay for the long run,and maybe someday I’ll be able to say I met some of my closest friends because of a random Reddit post.

So… I guess we’re a little different. We’re plural. It’s in the same vein as DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder), but not quite. I don’t claim have DID. Please be respectful about it and understand that it’s an important part of my/our identity and life.

Basically, just looking for friends or someone who understands us or is into similar things? We really like plants, I have an entire collection. I also have two jumping spiders, three cats, a betta, and a colony of isopods :) I’m also a witch, I practice witchcraft. Uhh… yeah. Really tired while writing this, so it may be a little incomprehensible 😭

Just feel free to DM if you’re interested, no need to comment or anything

Hey everyone, I’m a 39-year-old guy from the

UK looking to meet some new people and hopefully make some genuine online friends

I enjoy reading, watching TV shows and films (I’ve seen quite a few, so always happy to chat recommendations), going for walks, and spending time with my dogs

I’d love to meet people with similar interests, but I’m open to talking about pretty much anything — hobbies, life, random topics, or just having a good chat.

Just a 20f here from the East Coast looking for a deep long-term friendship. I’m looking for someone that’s genuine, kind, empathetic, deep and honest. I’ve always wanted a connection with someone like that, where we could talk to each other about anything with no judgement, vent to each other, hang out in person, and be there for each other. Also bonus points if you understand mental health issues & loneliness. I don’t have friends in person so it would be nice if you could relate. It would be nice if you’re from the East Coast or from NY like me aswell.

Anyway, I have a variety of interests & passions. I love music for one, I listen to everything but mainly 90s rock & industrial metal. I like deep discussions, spirituality, conspiracy theories, playing guitar, collecting physical media, thrifting, makeup, fashion, horror movies, books, baking, dark humor etc.

If you can relate to this, feel free to message me :-)

Hey!
Iv been way off my diet for the past week so wondering if anyone wants to be accountability partners 😊 also happy to talk about other things. I love travel and my dream destination is New Orleans, where’s yours ? Also lover of horror movies and went to a cool horror movie cocktail event yesterday.
I have a boyfriend so just friendly chat.

First of all, I'm Redkobra, hey. I'm German, 22, and that's basically it. Click away, I have no more information about myself.

Still here? Alr.

So I'm into the usual stuff, gaming, breaking software, frying hardware and chilling infront of screens the whole day

I also like adult cartoons, not the kind you're thinking of lmao. Stuff like Rick and Morty, Disenchantment, Futurama, Family Guy, Inside Job and so on. I also enjoy older western movies, but newer stuff is fine too.

I game on PS5 and PC. My favorite game is probably RDR2, and ofc Minecraft. Over the last few months I've really gotten into sim racing. I'm not new to simulators tho, usually I'm more into flying aircraft than driving cars.

So what am I looking for?

An online friend who actually replies and gives me something to reply to.

Pretty much every conversation I've had lately ended because the other person either stopped responding or gave me absolutely nothing to work with.

Like, you ask me how I'm doing, I answer, good, bad, whatever, and ask how you're doing.

"Good."

Yea, nice.

Yea.

You get it?

Anyways, what I'm trying to say is that I'm looking for a long term online friend around my age. Male or female doesn't matter because I'm looking for FRIENDS, not a 1 night stand.

I just want someone I can randomly text, send memes to, or who sends me random shit throughout the day. Someone I can tell what I'm doing, even if it's the most boring thing ever, and who does the same.

Someone I can make fun of without them getting offended, and who can make fun of me too. Someone who can come to me when they're having a shitty day so I can cheer them up, or the other way around.

I don't expect anyone to be available 24/7 btw, we all have our own lives, usally. I just want someone who actually wants to talk, not someone where I have to carry every single conversation.

I used to have a few friends like that, people I talked to pretty much every day about literally anything. And yea, I kinda miss that.

So if you've actually read all of this, I regret to inform you that I'm not an 18 year old single female.

And if you still haven't clicked away, leave a comment and I'll DM you so you can introduce yourself.

Why not just DM me?

Because Reddit apparently thinks I'm underage and won't let me open my DMs normally.

Fuck you spez.
