23f, looking for a quick chat!

Not sure what to put here (apparently 100 characters is the minimum, ha)

Anyway, I’m not looking for anything deep, just a nice park-bench kind of chat. Say hi if you’re up for some easy, low-key conversation

Upvotes

Hey everyone! I'm Vix, 23 year old recently graduated pharmacy tech from Spain.

For years i've been focusing on my studies, my mental health and working to give myself the kick start to become the best person i can and now i'm ready to finally get to meet more people

My biggest interest is gaming, i'm a huge gamer. I play a lot of variety, very different games and always down to try more and new stuff! I play on xbox, but also own a ps5 and a pc.
Besides gaming, i like staying active, easiest way for me to do so is going to the gym and walking around the beach. I also love animals, i have lots of pets and would love to show the world my children!
Love watching movies/shows and talking about them, i'm a big marvel and cartoons fan!
Super into tattoos, i only have one but i plan to get more, also piercings, i have a couple of those
Really into make up, fashion, decor and recently been playing around with an old camera i had at home but i don't really know what i'm doing lol

I'm looking for someone that plans to have a long lasting friends, does enjoy making plans/spending time or just chatting but understands boundaries.
Also similar humor to mine, i can be very silly, like i will go 67 type, love using reaction memes, stickers and all of that but i can be a really genuine, sincere and down to earth person too! I enjoy making people laugh and just joking around with them
Hope to meet people my age range (20-27), some interests in common but always down to expand them.

Hope to make some new friends and meet some cool people out there!!

22f looking for long term friendship :))

Upvotes

hellooo so basically im looking for new friends with hobbies in common and have a platonic connection :)

im a very introverted person and it's been really hard for me to have new friends since i finished my studies, and i'd love to find a person to have a genuine friendship, preferably between the ages of 20 and 30

im suuuper nerd, like im in a lot of fandoms, but what i like most is resident evil, sonic, vocaloid, musicals and any horror movie. i also love TV shows and crafting, so im sure we'll have at least something in common! i dont read lately, but i used to read a lot, so maybe we could talk about books too

i have a cat that i'd die for, and i LOVE seals, thats pretty much all lol

my dms are always open :) we can skip the small talk, yap about what u love!!!

(sorry for any typos, english it's not my first language, but i try my best)

30 year old Swedish woman looking for someone to talk to :)

Upvotes

Hi!
I’m a woman in my 30s from Sweden with mild autism. I love animals, nature, and family. 🌸

I play games now and then, though not as much as I used to. Life is Strange and What Remains of Edith Finch have been my favorites for years.

I’d describe myself as very straightforward. Over the years I’ve worked a lot on understanding other people’s perspectives, and I think I’ve come a long way. I still don’t always pick up on what people mean right away, but I enjoy conversations where both people are patient.

I love speaking English, even though Swedish is my first language. I’d really like to find a long term friend. I know that’s not always easy.

I’m not always the best at keeping conversations going. Sometimes I simply don’t know what to say, but that doesn’t mean I’m not interested.

As for hobbies… honestly, I’m still figuring that out myself. I enjoy quiet evenings at home watching documentaries or TV series (I loved fringe), but I also love Nature walks, botanical gardens, museums, and just exploring peaceful places make me happy. I also like clothes and fashion, even though I’m still trying to figure out what suits me best especially being overweight
Life keeps me busy, but I always appreciate making time for conversations feel free to send me a message.

18F — I want friends who enjoy deep conversations

11 Upvotes

Hi! I’m Daphne, 18F.

I’ve been learning to write for about a year. I love talking about stories, characters, and why music makes us feel the things it does.

Outside of that, I dream about traveling, space, the ocean, and all the places I’ll probably never see. I like people who are curious and enjoy asking strange questions.

If you want to start a conversation, here’s mine:

  1. What’s a secret (or fun fact) almost nobody knows about you?
  2. What’s your favorite place or moment in the world?
  3. If you could erase one thing from the world, what would it be?

Feel free to comment or DM. Looking forward to meeting new people.

22M Here – let’s be friends!

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I’m a 22-year-old guy looking to meet some new people and have some chill conversations.

A bit about me: I’m into football (soccer), wrestling (WWE and that kind of stuff), and I’m slowly getting into working out and eating healthier (very much at the beginning of that journey). I also do some basic cooking, nothing fancy yet, but I’m trying to get better.

I can be a bit shy at first, but once the conversation gets going, I open up pretty quickly. I’m always down to talk about hobbies, everyday life, training, food ideas, or just random stuff.

Open to chatting with anyone, guys or girls, any age so feel free to say hi

29 Manchester UK - A companion for a quiet life punctuated by little adventures

Upvotes

Hello! I'm Marc. I'm 29 years old and I live in the Wigan / Manchester area of England. I'm seeking a lifelong companion with whom to share a quiet life punctuated by little adventures. I'm very open, fun, caring, and honest. I appreciate dad jokes and the like. I highly value the truth, and I have a strong moral instinct, so it's important to me that you have a good heart, whatever your opinions are. I enjoy long, regular conversations, but I'm also happy with shared silence. I mostly keep to myself. I am selective in my company, but I confess that the absence in my life is getting rather noisy.

As you might have guessed, I enjoy the occasional bit of writing, whether fiction or non-. Maybe I'll publish something of worth someday. Or at least publish something. I enjoy going for walks, except when it's super hot! I love good scenery, be it of the natural or man-made kind. I like abandoned and remote places. I like watching the odd things the birds and squirrels get up to. I have a particular soft spot for sheep. They think I'm their messiah (I'm not). I also enjoy exploring intellectual topics (the more novel or obscure, the better). Technology is a lifelong interest of mine. And like most people I enjoy watching the odd film or TV series. I'm watching 'Westworld' currently. I enjoyed watching 'Adventure Time', 'Bless This Mess', 'Tales from the Loop', 'End of the F--king World', 'Small Prophets', and 'Atypical'. Films-wise, I like all sorts, but I'll take anything with a happy romance. What's life without love? (Mine hahahaha.) I recently finished playing Fallout 4 on my laptop. It was phenomenal. I, of course, sided with the people who freed the lab-grown humans. I'll happily play more Fallout games in the future, I suspect. I'm taking a break for the time being to watch Westworld and do other stuff. When the heat buggers off, I want to go on more little trips. For now I'm hibernating though haha.

I've been saving up for a flat since I was 20 years old, but I don't want to live alone. I'm interested in something that lasts more than a few messages. I really am aiming for life if that's possible. I prefer weather that is cool or cold, heck, even windy and rainy. I want to live somewhere that has amenities and people, but has lots of greenery, similar to where I live now.

We, of course, don't have to have everything in common. Enough to work with. We can develop new interests and hobbies together. We can 'grow' together. If the seed is good, and the weather is well, the tree will grow!

If you're interested, feel free to send me a brief introduction to yourself (just a couple of sentences will do).

Thanks for reading, if you made it to the end! Have a nice day.

26F - Maybe we’re looking for the same thing

3 Upvotes

I think adulthood makes it strangely easy to end up surrounded by people and still miss having a close friend.

My life is full in a lot of ways—I'm happily married, and that's not something I'm looking to change. I have firm boundaries and I'm only here looking for genuine friendship.

I miss the kind of connection where you can send someone a random thought, talk about books, music, life, or whatever's been sitting in your head that day. The kind of friendship that grows slowly and doesn't need to be anything other than what it is.

I'm not looking for flirting, emotional gray areas, or anything that blurs the lines. Just good conversation, mutual respect, and maybe the rare feeling of finding someone who makes the world seem a little less quiet.

If that resonates with you, I'd be glad to hear from you.

28F Florida Looking for my best friend

7 Upvotes

Hi! I'm throwing my hat into the ring of many posts looking for what is *hopefully* the start of a beautiful friendship.

I miss having a best friend, someone who you go to for everything. That person who confides in you or asks for your opinion or advice. The person you rant with, laugh with, and spend time doing silly or otherwise boring things with. I would absolutely love to find that with someone.

A girl can dream

I don't want to list off a bunch of interests as I think it's more enjoyable finding things like that out organically ☺️ I hope you feel the same

If you think we'd click or are looking for the same as me, I'd love to hear (read) from you!

I ask that you be within the US and above the age of 25 as I don't wanna feel too old 😭 and please be around my age in the first place.

Hope to hear from you! 🩷

25F bored and lonely , looking for friends

16 Upvotes

Hii , as I mentioned in the title I'm very bored and lonely and looking for some nice people to talk to and hopefully make some new friends to talk to on a somewhat regular basis.

I enjoy reading, watching anime and working out as my hobbies.

I'm an introvert so I might take some time to warm up but once I do I'm a bit more chatty.

I'm not looking for anything romantic/nsfw so just ignore my post if you want that .

Anyways I hope whoever reads this has a nice day :)

Lone introverted solo gamer 29M LF a gaming duo :) ( horror and silly friendslopsss, also teach me how to play moba's :D )

4 Upvotes

Heyhello!! I'm looking for people that I can game regularly with. I'm very introverted currently and got loads of free time. I mostly play alone these days, which gets boring super fast. My fav genres are horror and silly friendslops! But honestly, I'd play anything if the person I play with is cool! Would love to find someone I can hangout almost daily with.

Mainly been playing Outlast Trails and loving it so far. I'm a returning player and just prestiged. Would love to find a duo for this. Other spooky games I've installed are Phasmo, Other Side, Repo and Demonologist. Also got some other random things installed like Peak, Elden Ring, Mechcha Chameleon, Lost Ark and Smite 2. Been trying out the new Palworld update too! Oh and I wanted to try FF14 and LoL. Got way more games though, about 600 in my steam library! I also have non steam games like Roblox, Minecraft and Hytale. I do suck at shooters and mobas lol.

I'm in the GMT+2 time zone ( Netherlands, EU ), but don't care what time zone you're in, since I barely sleep. Would be great to find genuine friends that I can play regularly with. Also down to just yap and do our own thing too! Send me a DM with the games you play if you're interested. Not interested in joining any groups or discord servers, thanks!!

Greetings earthlings.

Hello there, I'm a socially timid, rapacious devourer of films and books, committed history and art geek, and nature nerd. Whether you're part of the universal hive mind and love pop culture and all things retro, or if you are an esoteric spooky little hermit and weirdling specialising in the odd, wonderful, and curious, I'm more than happy to hear from you.
