Hey Reddit! :)

I don't know if this is the right place to post this, but here goes.

I'm 22M, and lately I've been thinking about how nice it would be to have a few people in my life with whom I can talk freely, share random thoughts, laugh at the dumbest things, and just be myself without feeling the need to pretend to be someone I'm not.

I'm not the best at approaching new people or keeping a conversation going with someone I've just met. Sometimes I overthink what to say, sometimes I run out of topics, and sometimes I just don't know how to turn a stranger into a friend. But I do want to get better at it, and I figured the best way to start is to put myself out here. :)

A little about what I'm hoping to find: not a perfect friendship, just a real one. Someone who doesn't mind random messages, occasional long conversations, silly memes, conversations about life at 2 AM, or checking in on each other after a rough day. We don't have to share all the same interests or talk every single day. I'd just like us to genuinely enjoy talking to each other and make an effort to stay in touch.

I'm not expecting an instant connection or trying to force anything. I know real friendships take time, trust, and effort from both sides. I'd rather get to know a few people properly than have a hundred conversations that go nowhere.

If any of this resonates with you, feel free to reach out. You don't need a perfect introduction or an interesting opening line. Tell me about your day, your favourite movie, something you're passionate about, or literally anything that's on your mind.

Maybe we'll click, maybe we won't, and that's okay too. But it'd be nice if a random Reddit post could turn into a friendship that lasts longer than a few days. :)

Looking forward to meeting some good people. ❤️

hey. Hey. So yeah looking for real friends.

about me: I’m a gym rat, meal prep, enjoy my coffee, thrift queen, some times reader. Alt girl, heavily tattooed. Yes gym going alt girl. Work a typical 9-5 desk job. I have a dark sense of humor. some times dry sense of humor. It does take me a little bit t open up to people but once I do feel comfortable with you, best of luck.

Id prefer people in my age range, like 28-42. So we are likely in the same phase of life. I am looking for platonic friendships only. Creeps, weirdos, people who try and do more will be blocked and likely screenshoted for the group chat to make fun of how desperate you are.

Hello! ☀️ 35M here and looking to meet new people and hear new stories. Share wins with as well as the losses. We are forever evolving and growing and I feel like sharing those journeys with others is important.

What i don't want in a friend is someone who isn't curious and doesnt ask questions. Most people want quick banter throughout the day which for the right person works, but i prefer just digging in. In reality most people's days are autonomous and similar. So what makes you tick? What made you the person you are today? What are your passions? What are your goals?

We all have lives outside of reddit. Responses don't have to be immediate i won't even message 24/7, but that shouldn't mean a conversation has to just end. Stick around get to know each other. Support each other as an actual friend does.

Now, the things about me. I am happily married and not looking for any sort of disruption to said marriage. I love movies and watching series on streaming services. I love travel. I enjoy video games now and then. I have a cat which is very loved.

Recently I've been going through a journey of self health both physically and mentally. Life gets hard sometimes. It costs nothing to be nice to someone. I love listening and giving advice if asked. I like stupid jokes now and then. We are all in this world together.

So if you'd like someone to regularly talk to that's kind, patient, compassionate, curious and actually cares. Feel free to send me a message. All it takes is some effort.

If any girl/female/woman/lady down to be friends can dm ,my self kukad kamal daa from dallo ki delhi

Hey everyone i am looking for some friends who are active on Instagram and love sending funny memes and reels throughout the day. You know those random reels that make you laugh for no reason, the relatable memes that perfectly describe your mood or the stupid videos that are somehow funny enough to send to someone at 2 AM? That's the kind of friendship i am looking for. I'd love to have people i can randomly share reels with, laugh at dumb memes together, react to each other's stories, and occasionally chat about random things. We don't have to talk 24/7 or force conversations. Sometimes sending a single reel that says everything is enough. I'm a pretty quiet and introverted person so making connections isn't always easy for me. I'd like to find a few people with whom things can feel natural and comfortable, whether we're just exchanging memes or gradually becoming actual friends. If you're someone who regularly scrolls through Instagram and thinks, "I need to send this to someone," but doesn't always have anyone to send it to, we might get along. I'm mainly looking for people around my age or older than me preferably those who are active on Instagram and genuinely enjoy sharing funny or relatable content. I would be happy if a casual exchange of memes eventually turned into a genuine friendship too. If this sounds like your kind of thing, feel free to comment or reach out. Tell me a little about yourself, and we can exchange Instagram IDs if we're comfortable.

Let's make each other's Instagram DMs a little less empty and a little more chaotic.

Hyeeee guysss and my lovely galsssssss!! 🥹

Hey everyone!

I recently moved to the city and realised that making friends as an adult is harder than it looks. 😭

I don’t really have people here to hang out with, grab coffee, explore places, go on random walks, or just talk to when there’s nothing to do.

I’m looking to meet new people, make genuine friends, and have conversations that don’t feel forced. We could talk about literally anything, share memes, discuss life, or eventually meet up if we vibe.

If you’re also new to the city, feeling a little socially disconnected, or just looking for someone to talk to, feel free to DM me. No pressure, no expectations. Just two strangers trying to make life a little less boring.

Looking forward to meeting some nice people!

Hello !

As said in the title, I'm looking for a genuine connection. Obviously it will start with casual chat to see if we vibe, but I'd like to find... Someone I can talk to about anything, laugh with, share random thoughts with or simply sit in silence with. I will listen to yours. I love the little things that make a friendship special: inside jokes, playful teasing, checking in on each other and feeling comfortable enough to be yourself without overthinking. I want a natural, effortless connection where we enjoy each other’s company, share little secrets, laugh at stupid thing and look forward to talking after a long day because we know we’ll make each other smile. Someone I can rely on through both happy and difficult moments, knowing we’re there for each other not because we have to, but because we genuinely want to be.

I’m 25F, I live in Europe (so you must be from EU as well) ! I love reading, gaming (I’m open to try any game on PC), TV shows, movies, anime, quizzes, random browser games, cosplay, and photo modeling. I love music as well, I'm almost always listening to music. I have plenty of hobbies and passions, so you’ll get to discover those along the way. I’m cheerful, curious, and confident in myself and in my opinions but I'm also willing to learn and exchange ideas. I'm a free spirit, I romanticize everythiiing and I want to help people feel more free, embrace who they are and be happy. Sometimes it only takes one person to motivate you to find the courage in yourself to start changing things.

I’d love to meet someone who’s comfortable being themselves, open minded, and curious about the world. Because I'll always come up with fun or weird things to try. I like making memories. I do like texting, but I prefer calling. I'm east asian, so my voice makes me sound a bit younger, I'm actually very good at making anime voices (+ japanese is my native language). Not sure if this is a flex to know how to do that tho haha.

And obviously, you are free to leave whenever you want. No matter if we vibe or not.

If you are interest, hit me up with an intro. Have a nice evening people !

Hey everyone,

I'm 20M, currently in my 5th semester of college, and honestly, I've been feeling pretty lost lately.

I got attached to someone, and over time, I started giving them most of my time and attention. I became so scared of losing this person that when problems arose between them and my other friends, I chose their side because I wanted to keep them in my life.

Eventually, those friendships broke down, and now I'm left in a situation I never really expected to be in.

The difficult part is that this person is also someone I keep getting hurt by, yet detaching myself feels incredibly hard. I think a big reason is that they became such a huge part of my daily life. When you get used to talking to someone regularly, sharing things with them, and looking forward to their messages, it's hard to let go, even when you know the attachment isn't good for you anymore.

Lately, it's started affecting my ability to focus on studying, and that's genuinely worrying me. I'm in a crucial phase of college, with internships and placements approaching, and I don't want to jeopardise my future because I can't get my emotions under control.

I've decided to take a step back from this person and focus on myself, my studies, and rebuilding my life. But I'm also realising that I miss having friends, people to talk to about random things, share music or interests with, play games with, or just have normal conversations with without overthinking everything.

I'm not necessarily looking for someone to fix my problems. I'd just like to meet people who understand what it's like to get attached, lose themselves a little in the process, and try to find their way back.

If you've experienced something similar, how did you move forward? How did you rebuild your social life and learn to be okay without that one person being the centre of your world?

And if anyone here is around my age and wants to talk, make friends, share interests, or just have chill conversations, feel free to reach out. I'd genuinely like to get to know some new people.

Thanks for reading. :)

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.

I came here to make friendship but its not that place where i can make friendship, chat daily, shares hobbies. I don’t know why peoples are so busy with nothing. Although everytime i see post about friendship making and wants to chat but in reality they dont like these. Is it only time pass options? My world of friendship is small due to work & relocation at the age of 35 years later i couldn’t make a friends where i live now.

Can anyone tell me what things depends for making friendship? Money, look appearance, religious choice, regional locations?

I am really confused 😌

(long list) i play games like marvel rivals, minecraft, stardew, roblox, fortnite, life is strange, abiotic factor, tlou, twdg, FTF, stray, class of 09, sally face, BO3, zelda, etc. i grew up on MC, wii games and BO1+2. i recently got into skyrim and i'm doing the winterhold quests

i'm very chronically online and watch ppl like Think Before You Sleep, flamingo, slushynooz, and katieb. i'm open to talking abt anything philosophical, controversial, etc. i also like marvel (been a huge nerd abt doomsday/secret wars lately), anime like aot, jik, saiki k, i've watched shows like twa, invincible, arcane, and i'm HUGE on horror movies (kinda picky though). i'm also an aquarius and INTJ if anyone cares

i'm looking for friends to game with when i'm not working during the week (my shifts are 8a-4p m-f), hoping to make some real connections

I’m on the struggle buss so bad. I’m 32 and moved to the Huntsville AL area almost two years ago. My fiance travels for work and some weekends im home bound. Would love to meet new people but how?!? Looking more for female friends that are into getting into things on the weekends. I go to work and come home so I don’t meet new people often lol

Hi everyone,

Looking to make and meet new friends from all over the world. Ideally people from Australia/New Zealand as it’ll be a similar time zone, but more than welcomed to message from anywhere around the world.

Hope to hear from you all soon!

Honestly, because of uni I felt like socialising with people isn't a thing for me because I'm way too busy to get my mind outside school work. So I'm hoping at least here or in anywhere,I could get to befriended some of you who are interested!

My hobbies:

Singing

Watching detective movies/series (I love love love Sherlock Holmes, and high potential)

Baking/cooking (still learning)

Watching anime (I only watched One Piece & Detective Conan)

Learning about witchcraft, spiritual work, tarot, astrology, etc.

Writing (stories & poems, but mostly unfinished stories)

I also love to pet my dog or any animals

I do dressmaking and designing as well

So, yeah, idk if someone else here has the same interests as I am. Though, I'm definitely open to anything that is not my interest as long as you can explain it to me and help me learn about it.

Hit me up if you're interested. (I don't do dm first)
