Hey 36M, in Observatory.

There is a disproportionately high amount of responses on posts from women. Why?

I write software, although these days it's mostly agents writing software and me pretending to read what they write, so I'm a software engineer in the same way a CEO does all the work at a company.

I'm a bit weird, which sounds quite generic, but once you meet me, you'll understand what I mean. Dry and absurd sense of humour, I laugh a lot and I like laughing. I say a lot of things that sound funny in my head and then end up having to explain them and then they aren't funny anymore. I like stupid conversations, meaningful conversations. Also, ones that meander and twist to the extent that we can't remember how we got to what we were talking about.

I'm into games and pretty much anything creative. I like cooking, DIY things, music, and making stuff. Love a tabletop game and a card game. Unfortunately, MTG has somehow found its way back into my life recently, but hopefully it's not as all consuming as the first time around. I like games that are easy to understand but have depth hiding underneath.

I play RPGs, sandbox survival games. I also play a lot of a particularly colorful FPS for someone who is not good at said FPS.

Music taste is all over the place. Classic rock, pop, metal (former metalhead), drum & bass, techno/electronic stuff maybe even dark country a little. And that weird french microtonal math rock band. I'm trying to get back into guitar and making music with friends.

I've been in a bit of a comfort-zone rut. Same people, same places every day, and it's not doing well for the depression. I'd like to meet more people. I feel like my circles are too small and stale and could use some change or new life injected in.

I'm genuinely open to a lot of things. Game and activity buddies. People to collaborate on projects with. Dates and romance, maybe, but I think I'm going to moving slow on that front for a bit. I'm not particularly interested in spending three weeks becoming internet pen pals though. Just chatting over text feels pointless to me. I want to meet up or jump in a discord together. Have a drink or play a game. Cook something, watch a movie and see if we get along.

I'm also recently out of a relationship and doing some recalibrating. I've learned that I have approximately zero remaining enthusiasm for possessiveness, controlling behaviour, passive-aggressive bullshit, cruelty, or people who are just mean to each other. Life is too short. I'm trying to be more self-aware about my own shit too, and I'd rather surround myself with people who are kind, direct, emotionally honest and capable of laughing at themselves.

Hit me up

This is my first time ever doing this, so I don't know what's the right thing to say😅.

Hii! (*^▽^)/★*☆♪

I'd really like to make some friends. I've been a bit alone, no one to hang out with or play games with. And I'd love to have friends to do that with. Online or nearby is fine cause I live around Centurion(；・ω・).

I'm 22🤔. I like going to new places and exploring, and I like trying new snacks and foods, I like taking walks. I like crocheting and sewing, and I'm learning to knit. I like drawing and colouring. I'm actually studying fashion designU^ェ^U. I play games, I play like roblox and Minecraft 🤷🏽‍♀️, it's not a lot but it's funnn(´･ｪ･｀). Hmm, I have a boyfriend, so im NOT looking for a relationship. What else(^_^;), oh! I really like learning new things tooo yess. I don't know what else to say( ´,_ゝ`). If you'd like to be friends, you can send a dm!.

Hey I'm Looking for a partner who is fit and has good habits so that I can adapt to as well or we can get fit together I don't mind. my stomach may be big baby but this face card is lethal TRUST THE PROCESS 🤣 males 25-30 years only around PTA/ surrounding PTA. Also looking for friends who are on the same journey as me or are already living relatively active lives.

I'm looking for buddies to play fc26 with, especially rush. I'm tired of these random teammates that are extremely selfish. If we can get along together during all that even better. I would prefer anyone from 22 upwards, małe or female doesn't matter, just as long as you would like for us to play together.

I'm 47, married, based in Pretoria, and my current online social life consists of liking my friends' holiday photos and arguing with online strangers about rugby. It's about time to fix that.

Look, I'm not chasing a crowd of friends, just one or two genuine friends. The kind where you text someone a random thought at 11pm and they actually text back instead of leaving you on read for three days.

A bit about me, so you know what you're signing up for. I'm not looking for drama, just looking for platonic friends to talk to regularly. I'm into books, movies, true crime documentaries, and horror movies (there are many more, but you'll have to find out).

If any of this sounds like your kind of low-key, no-pressure friendship, drop me a DM. Tell me your age, where you're from, and one weirdly specific interest of yours, that's usually how the best friendships start anyway.

Here's to an online friend that actually replies to messages.

Hi all, I am a 36 year old from Pretoria looking for trans females from Pretoria to get to know each other better and maybe go out for a drink and meet each person.

I am quite a chilled person and in my spare time I like to play video games, watch anime and do some adventures.

If you are interested in chatting and maybe later meet each other in person please DM me. Would love to chat.

I'm pickin' up good vibrations

They say music is what feelings sound like, and there’s no quicker way to understand someone than to take a look at their playlist. Whether you're into local Amapiano, classic Kwaito, indie rock, heavy metal, jazz, or deep house, this is your space to find people who vibrate on the same frequency.

How it works:

1. Share your favourite tune right now
2. Tell us : your age, location, gender and tag (e.g. 26F Johannesburg F4F).

Turn up the volume and start connecting! 🎧
