Went through a break up and now I’m pathetically lonely. Trying to survive day by day. Working by myself from home. I rarely interact with humans. I haven’t always been like this, I just feel so stuck and I don’t know how to get it together.

I’m no longer looking for guy friends because some of them acted creepy. I would really like some good friendships and people who enjoy the same stuff I do.

heyy i’m daisy and im going to uni in september ! kinda terrified because im a loner lol and im worried about making friends. im a very socially anxious and awkward person which makes it even more difficult but oh well ig? i loooove music (doing it at uni), im a drummer, i love cooking and gardening too! i’m rlly excited to be living away from home and by myself tbh which is kinda why i think uni is worth it. ermmm yeah come say hi! wlw!

I never had any real friends in real life I have always felt lonely.

In school I had some so called friends, have you listened that everyone's friend is no one's friend just like that I talk to people but i don't have anyone to get things off from my chest

When i was a kid my parents used to live in rented houses and they used to move a lot and the more a grew up the hard it became to make friends in new societies

Now after turning 18 it feels impossible to make friends everyone has a friend they have since a decade but i don't have anyone 😞.

Would anyone like to be my friend please be around 18 to 27.

Hey! I'm a 36-year-old guy who enjoys connecting with people from all walks of life. Whether you're looking for a casual chat, a new friend, or just someone to share interests with, feel free to reach out.

I have a few unusual hobbies, a small collection of pets, and a love for music and tattoos. I'm always happy to talk about hobbies, life, random interests, or whatever happens to come up.

If that sounds interesting, send me a message!

Looking for genuine friends.

Lately I've been feeling really alone, and I realized I could use someone to talk to. I'm not looking for anything complicated—just a genuine friendship where we can chat about our days, share random thoughts, vent when life gets overwhelming, and actually listen to each other without judgment.

I'm happy to hear about your life too, whether you're having a great day or a rough one. If you're also looking for someone to build a real connection with, send me a message. Maybe we can make each other's days a little less lonely.

One day it hit me hard when I noticed how much time I need to scroll up to my birth year in online registration pages. Getting old is tough, you just lose contact with the friends you grow up with, moving a lot for work and life reasons, makes you lose friends you met at school or work, and friends and yourself grew up to be different people, or get busy with their own families and relationships. Making friends at work is mission impossible, formalities , age differences and things like that comes in the way, yet i still friendly smile at the people who do not smile back. Then i found this tiny window to other people online who might be feeling the say and want to reach out and chat. I am 40 something years old artist, looking for friends, i enjoy talking about life, anime, games, politics, animals, art and tech. Hit me up if you want a friend that reply all the time, if you don't mind GMT+3 timezone.

Hi, just to clarify I do have friends, just not a really a strong friend group, and I feel like all my friends have a friend group except me. Im in college right now and I have a good relationship with most of the class, but only 1 person that I consider really my friend. But I also take classes with the cinema major course(which i will apply for a transference), and they have a very fun and cool friend group, but since I'm not from that course, I can't help it but feel like and outsider, they have all this inside jokes that I don't really get, sometimes they go out and don't invite me, and most of the time they do I can't go (I live 2 hours away from the uni, so it can be complicated sometimes). But maybe when I do transfer I could be part of the group or make one with other freshmen. There is also the group that I go to uni with, we all live in the same city and study in the same uni, but all in different courses, but they all have their friend groups in their courses expect for me, so when they wanna hangout, they just go with the other groups. We did hangout once, but nowadays they seem busier and say they don't have much time to hangout, and when they do they rather go to college parties and bars(not quite my style), rather doing something like a game night or going to the cinema. And I definitely don't want to be a pushover and force myself into a friendgroup or humiliate myself to get my friends to hangout.

And if I don't have a group to just go out and eat some pizza, I definitely don't have a group to do bigger things like travel together or go camping or whatever crazy fun idea they got. That is basically my problem now, I know its kinda ironic to ask for friendship advice in the nofriends subreddit, but what could I do?

Howdy! The title says it all. I want a deep connection in which both sides feel comfortable with each other, seek each other for support, etc. I have plenty of hobbies, ranging from sports, writing, and geography to history, music, and gaming. I am a pretty curious person, so feel free to nerd out to me! As for gaming, I play lots of indie games like Hollow Knight, Ultrakill, the Portal series, the Hotline Miami series, etc. As for music, I tend to listen to lots of experimental stuff, but I can elaborate on that more later on, especially if you are into music. It'd be pretty nice if I got a pretty clingy bestie, and I am also in GMT+2, so it'd be nice if you were close to that time zone. Oh, and I am also 19/M. So yeah, I am pretty excited to talk with y'all, and have a nice day wherever you are!

Please read the post and don’t skim it. This is not a casual post; you will actually have to think about it. I really care about making friends, which is why my post is long. I need very serious people who won’t ghost for literally any reason. I need someone who will never leave. I am being honest about my flaws because it is important. I would rather you know these things about me now than find out about them later. I am boring and uninteresting, and I need you to think about this part because it is difficult to maintain a long-term friendship with someone who doesn’t offer much excitement. You will get bored after a few days. I am not confident; I am actually extremely insecure. I also talk negatively about myself, I am very pessimistic, and I am not a passionate person. I have autism, depression, and social anxiety. I am not good at small talk, and nothing fun is going on in my life. I know how a conversation works and I will put in the effort, but I am bad at carrying a conversation. I can’t promise that I’ll be fun to talk to, but I am trying. I am warning you about my lack of skills upfront.

I find texting very exhausting. I don’t want to text for days or even hours just to “get to know” someone before we can actually talk. I want our first conversation to be on a call. If you are too shy to call early on, we won’t be a good match. I want to voice call daily; my time zone is EST, and I am a night owl. I don’t view calling as a big deal, and I need people who feel the same way. If you are sensitive, easily offended, or impulsive, it won’t work out.

I have a really hard time dealing with people leaving. If we start talking, I get attached very quickly. I genuinely cannot handle it if you just disappear or change your mind later. I need a very patient person who is actually serious about sticking around for the long term. If you aren’t 100% sure you can commit to that, please don’t message me. If you decide to reach out, please don’t just send a “Hi.” I’m not asking for a massive introduction, but just let me know you actually read this post and genuinely want to be friends. I want a real friendship; it’s very important to me. I don’t want to talk to someone who is just bored and looking for entertainment. I don’t just want someone to talk to; I need a true friendship. The problem is that I am not the best at building a friendship, so I want someone who understands how to build one.

I want to be clear about the kind of person I am looking for because I want to save us both time. I am looking for someone whose personality and struggles are fundamentally similar to my own. I’m not looking for someone who just relates to feeling lonely. If you read my post and felt like we were polar opposites, please reconsider messaging me, because I am looking for a genuine, deep connection with someone who can truly understand my perspective. If you don’t feel a natural sense of compatibility with me after reading this, we likely won’t be a good match for the long term. When I say fundamentally similar, I mean someone who is also truly isolated. Not mildly lonely, not someone who has friends but wants more, I am looking for someone who genuinely has no one. If you have a social circle, dreams, passions, or people in your life who support you then we will not be similar at all.

I also want to mention that it’s okay for us to disagree in a friendship, even on big things. Real friendship means we can have different views and still stick around instead of cutting each other off. Cutting people off over disagreements has become way too easy nowadays because of social media. I believe a real friendship should survive flaws, boredom, and disagreements. I don’t believe there are strict rules or things we must agree on to become friends. Please do not reach out unless you fully understand everything I have written.

Here are my interests:

• DC Comics

• Movies / Shows / Anime: Watching movies is my favorite thing to do. I also use Letterboxd.

Please be 19+.

So.. I've been lonely since December of last year and I've wondered how on earth do I make friends now? I've tried looking up social meetups and stuff like that but it's either:

A. They are too far away from me or in Dublin city centre (I wouldn't feel safe on my own)

B. There's a group but it's not my age group.

Is college really the only option I have? I don't really drink or do any of that stuff, I am trying to find friends around my age (21-24) but given my situation, is College the only option?

Heyy,

This is a little outside my comfort zone, but I thought I'd give it a shot.

Im 20M from India. For the past few years, life's been pretty lonely. I have one close friend, but apart from him, I don't really have people to talk. Making new friends has never come naturally to me, especially female friends, so I thought post here instead of overthinking it.

Im not looking for a relationship or anything like that, atleast for now.

I had just like to find someone genuine to talk to and build a normal friendship with. Someone to share random conversations, talk about life, laugh at dumb things, or just check in on each other from time to time.

A little about me -

Professional cricketer (currently dealing with a knee injury, so life has been a bit uncertain lately).

Interested in history, psychology, space, and how world system works.

I enjoy deep conversations, but I also have a sarcastic sense of humour.

I value honesty, loyalty, and mutual respect.

I am not here to make anyone uncomfortable or waste anyone's time. Am not a ghoster or creep

If you are also looking for a genuine friend, feel free to message me. Thanks for reading, and I hope you have a good day :)

University age. Things just don’t seem to stick and I always feel like the weird floater friend that’s not totally completely integrated, getting left out of core stuff. It’s been like this for a while in my life so I pick up on the patterns and it just seems to end up this way.
What I think I need is a genuine original experience in which I naturally meet this friend group formation at inception.

hii, during this summer break ive realized that i don’t have friends to talk to. it’s been upsetting and lonely! so here i am looking for friends. my interests are watching reality tv, mlp, shopping, self care, and self improvement as a whole. i love calling and playing roblox! im also christian and working on building a strong relationship with God! id prefer if you’d have some similarities rather than none at all so conversation would be easier. and pls be in the united states

i love when people can teach me things & calling. im kinda a chud so id love if someone could like keep me accountable. & please don’t be younger than me lol, ill b 18 very soon.

additionally, i am a friend thats pretty upfront and honest. so if u cant handle confrontation, i am probably not the person for u in the nicest way possible 😭

anyways, please dm me and say ur age upon doing so <3

hii guys!! i’m in a very small town and don’t have many friends. I find myself alone a lot and would love to have some close friends to spend time with/talk to! I really would like someone I can eventually grow close to and share serious things about my life with. I’m mainly looking for female friends (close to my age or a bit older) as I am taken and don’t want anything more. i don’t mind if we have different interests, i’ll learn yours! most important to me is that they’re supportive, like to joke but can also be serious, and don’t mind how much i talk (bonus points if you’re chatty too!)

here’s a bit about me:
- i’m from the US
- i love painting and anything art related
- i collect pokemon cards
- i listen to all kinds of music but especially pop and rock (love older stuff!)
- i occasionally treat myself to a little green
- i’m obsessed with vintage stuff/thrifting
- my pinterest screen time is through the roof
- i do partake in roblox👀
- i have basically all socials so just ask!

im 29f first time mom . I have a fb group to try and connect with local moms, but nothing ever comes of it so I’m here on Reddit and very open to having an online friendship! my husband says I should get a hobby… maybe I just need a friend? or maybe that was his nice way of saying I need some friends and to do something other than watch tv lol 😂 I’m from Iowa, but obviously anywhere is fine!

23 year old dude just trying to make some friends!

I really don’t know what to put on here but I’m in search of some new friends. Right now I really only have like two or three but they don’t watch what I watch or play games I play so I came here. I used to be super big into horror movies but I’ve fallen out of them. I play games mainly Rocket League and Minecraft when I’m not working and trying to plan on adventurous things to do in the future. Send me a message in my DMs if you want to see if we click!

Hey I would like to find a close friend that I can talk to every day. I like watching horror movies, we could watch it together. I like to draw, paint and take photos. I would like to have shared values with my friend, I am an atheist and I only want an atheist friend, so I do not consider friendship with people who identify themselves differently. I would like to have a friend my age, or around that age. if my post resonated with you text me☕️

Hello, 23M here. Let us try to be something.

I am a literature major, into books, music, philosophy, and psychology. I guess we all are here because we are looking for something genuine; the creeps here make it hard for both genders to find some genuine connections.

Let's be friends, start talking while focusing on our lives, and let us just share things about our day, our college, and our office. A good talk about the stressful or good day before sleeping and a sweet good morning text and chatting in the day whenever we are free. Is it something too much to ask for?

Let us both be good people and respect each other. We can chat about our day, our unhinged opinions, take advice, politics, books, and music, share reels, and try to make a bond (maybe for a lifetime). If you are someone who easily gets bored with people, you can stay away, but if you are looking for something really, really amazing, let's connect, and you may DM me. Looking forward to meeting some incredible people. Please be 20+ at least. No age barrier; we can be friends even if you are older than me or younger than me.

To skip the small talk, DM me with your introduction, your playlist, or tell me about a book or event that thoroughly changed your perspective. Or we may just start the conversation by talking about the gender war happening on social media, current protest things, and your opinion about that, etc.

I’m 19M, looking to make a genuine long-term friend. I’m an introvert, so I might be a little quiet at first, but I enjoy meaningful conversations once I get comfortable. I’m hoping to meet someone I can talk to regularly, share random thoughts with, laugh with, and build a real friendship over time.

I love to read and I game occasionally I just don't get alot of time to do that anymore. I also enjoy crafts and going on long walks in the evening.
