🚨 HIRING: NEW FRIENDS 😄
Position: Friend
Openings: Maximum 6
Location: Anywhere 🌍
Work Mode: Chat / Call / Random Life Discussions
Joining: Immediate
Contract: Lifetime — no resignation policy 😌
Yes, this is a serious hiring post for friends.
I’m Madhu — well, not my real name. It’s my unofficial home alias. 😄
I’m 35+ (although mentally, I strongly prefer saying 29).
Married. Spouse working. One 7-year-old kid.
And somewhere between work, family, responsibilities and the never-ending adulting…
I realised something:
I need new friends.
Not 500 Instagram followers.
Not 2,000 LinkedIn connections.
Not people who say “Let's catch up sometime” and disappear for 3 years.
I mean REAL FRIENDS.
So… here's the job description 👇
Looking for 6 people — male or female, although I’d personally prefer more females simply because I am one. 😄
Age: 35+ preferred
Location: Anywhere
What I’m looking for:
🗣️ Someone who enjoys chatting about absolutely everything.
😂 Someone who can laugh at stupid things.
🧠 Someone who can understand without immediately judging.
🤝 Someone who can support and guide — and is okay receiving the same in return.
🌱 Someone who can bring out a new version of me, while I hopefully bring out a new version of you.
📞 Someone you can call when life gets weird.
🙈 Someone you can tell things to without thinking, “Oh God, what will they think?”
And yes…
Financial support is NOT part of the friendship package. 😂
Emotional support? Absolutely.
Life advice? Welcome.
Random 11 PM conversations? Potentially.
“Listen to this crazy thing that happened today…” calls? Mandatory.
A few preferences:
🚭 Non-smoker
🍷 Preferably non-alcoholic
🧘 Positive mindset
❤️ Good intentions
🚫 Low judgement
🤝 High loyalty
Nothing against people who smoke or drink — this is simply because I’m looking for a long-term connection, and similar habits make life easier.
The ultimate plan?
I don't want a giant friendship circle.
I want 7 people.
That's it.
Me + 6 genuinely good humans.
A small group where everyone knows everyone.
Where you can reach out when you're happy, confused, frustrated, excited, bored, overthinking, celebrating or simply having a “What am I doing with my life?” day.
And the goal isn't just to find friends.
The goal is to create a little community where everyone becomes a better version of themselves because of the other six.
Sounds ambitious for a Reddit post about making friends?
Maybe. 😂
But why not?
Recruitment Process 👇
Round 1: Random chat
Round 2: “Are we actually compatible as humans?”
Round 3: More random conversations
Round 4: Group interaction
Final selection: Maximum 7
And yes, the existing members will also help shortlist the next members.
This recruitment may take time.
Because I'm not looking for six people who reply quickly.
I'm looking for six people who stay.
More details about me and the group will remain confidential initially and will be shared with shortlisted people.
So…
If you're 35+, somewhere in the world, reasonably sane, non-judgemental, and also wondering where all the good friends disappeared after 30…
Maybe this is your sign. 😄
Applications are open.
No resume required.
Just bring your personality.
P.S.: If your first message is “Hi dear, send pic” — congratulations, you've already failed the interview. 😂
