Like dead ass HOW do you come onto a subreddit about making new friends to literally then ghost the person LESS THAN 24 HOURS LATER???

And the dudes on here will complain and be like, “oh, the girls never message back to our dms”, OK DUDE MAYBE LEARN TO RESPOND TO HER MESSAGES AND CARRY A CONVERSATION FOR LONGER THAN A LUNCH BREAK??? 🤨

Like I’m no Sherlock, but shit guys I really think if you are able to continue to communicate with a person who interests you and puts an effort to get to know you, you may JUST MAY, have something called A FRIENDSHIP 😀

But hey, what do I know when all I’ve seen are people vanishing faster than ALL OF THE GHOST AND DEMONS FROM THE ENTIRE CONJURING FRANCHISE 💀

Then they see posts like this and they’re up all in your DMs like, “oh i TOTALLY relate and would NEVER ghost”, just to be ANOTHER name added to the list.

Like either put in the effort or MOVE ASIDE for those who actually care enough to do it instead ✨🖕✨

(thank you for listening to my Ted Talk 🙂‍↕️ and if you’ve made it this far and AREN’T a douchebag or a chronic ghoster, please feel free to send me a dm where you’ll get to see the less frustrated side of me :)

(Please, read this post If you want to send me a message)

Yes... I'm still here and I'm still trying to find someone... That's all I want 😔 Finding a bestie Is my dream... I would love to finally say "Goodbye" to my loneliness and start smiling, again. Not with someone random, but with someone who wants what I want...

(I'm a REAL PERSON! Bots are taking over Reddit but I'm not one of them so don't accuse me of being someone/something I'm not)

I want you to read everything because my expectations aren't the same as other people's expectations. I also want you to know what to expect because even though we're all here to spend time with others, not everyone needs new friends. Some people want to find someone to play games with & It's just an example. 👇🏻

(This post Is for people who live In Europe because I would love to meet my new friends In real life, In the future)

I made this account In 2021 and even though I'm really active on Reddit, I can't make new friends... Not everyone on Reddit Is toxic or rude but there's ALWAYS something missing because I don't feel any emotional connection... I would love to change my life & finally wake up excited to text someone I really, really like 🙁 But... Life Isn't easy and I'm not sure If there's still a chance for me to find someone with exactly the same expectations as mine, someone who wants to meet someone new...

• I'm DEFINITELY NOT Interested In small talk! I had to use capital letters because I don't like low-effort messages and I don't even want to read them. Repetitive questions like "How are you?", "What are you up to?" or "What are your plans for the weekend?" aren't enough to start a conversation with me.. Don't get me wrong - Questions like these can be an Interesting addition to conversations about something else, but whenever people ask me the three most common questions In the world - my answer's the same because my life Is quite monotonous and I don't really know what people expect to hear 🙁 I also don't like abbreviations. Abbreviations are shortened forms of words or phrases. Why? I just don't like them because I see no reason to use shortened forms of words that are already short enough, you know? Abbreviations are common among minors and bored adults but I'm neither a minor, nor a bored adult. I want to see emotional maturity, warmth and kindness In conversations with others.

• I don't need to see your list of hobbies to know If you're someone I would get along with! You can tell me what you're Interested In but.. Believe It or not - I'm not like others and even If you're Interested In something I'm not - we can still be friends! What matters to me Is what you're like (If you're honest, talkative, kind, understanding and If your outlook on life Is similar to mine)

• I don't want to talk to minors and people way older than me. Why? I don't want to talk to minors because I'm an adult & I don't want to talk to anyone over fifty for example. Emotional maturity doesn't necessarily come with age so you can send me a message even If you're 20 (It's just an example) but please, don't contact me If you want to remind me that I'm older than you. I want you to feel comfortable & I want to feel comfortable myself. When I read messages like "Hi, I'm younger but I hope you don't mind" I always say to myself "If my age bothers you, you should've contacted someone else" I absolutely don't mind talking to people younger than me If they know how to communicate with others 🌸

• PLEASE, Don't use AI to talk to me! I Can't stand AI generated messages! If I wanted to read AI generated messages, I wouldn't be here! I read AI generated messages and comments all the time and I'm sick of It!

• I don't want to get any messages from people whose accounts are NSFW! Please, respect my decision! It's none of my business If you're here to find someone to flirt with or If you're an Internet exhibitionist but I don't want to see you with no clothes on - If you want to be my friend & I don't want to know what you want to do with other women In bed. If you are on Reddit to flirt with others, be on Reddit to flirt with others but... don't make an alternative account to hide who you really are just to send me a message. Pretending to be someone you're not - Isn't good for anyone

• I'm not a fan of sarcasm! I do - have a sense of humor but I'm not someone who makes fun of everyone and everything... Jokes about disabilities, death, religion or someone's financial status - are unacceptable to me!

• I also want to meet people who don't mind listening to negative stories and sharing them with others. My life's not easy so If you want to be In my life, you should be prepared for a realistic or even pessimistic outlook on life. I'm definitely not an optimist and I know I wouldn't get along with optimistic people who always tell others "Just believe In yourself and everything's gonna be OK" or something. We don't always get what we want & and It's completely normal to lose hope "for a better tomorrow" after many failed attempts. Not everything's as easy as It seems to be so If all you want to say to someone who needs emotional support Is "Don't complain" or "Find a therapist" Please.. don't send me a message. Not all sad people need therapists and let's be honest - Would a therapist replace a true friend? Absolutely not! Everyone needs a shoulder to cry on! I also don't mind listening to sad stories (even If they're repetitive) because I know what It's like when no one wants to listen to you...

• I would love to meet people who also don't have anyone, you know? There's absolutely nothing wrong with having friends and not being single but I'm single and I don't have anyone special In my life... It's just easier for me to get along with others If there's some common ground. I just feel better talking to people who know what It's like to be completely alone & let's be honest - People who have friends or partners, have less time for others...(which Is completely understandable) and I? I don't want to feel like an option, again. I'm not here to meet as many people as possible because I choose quality over quantity 🌸

• If your comment history Is full of comments "If you want to talk, hit me up" don't send me a message. I don't want to be rude but If It doesn't make any difference to you who you want to chat with - I'm definitely not for you. I want you to be my friend because of who I am! (If after reading my post you think you'd get along with me) I don't need emotional support from someone who doesn't even want to read my post.

• I want to talk to people who love and use emojis 🤭😊 Why? Emojis help us express our emotions even If others can't see our faces. Two emojis "😊" and "😔" are completely enough. You're probably surprised but.. text messages without emojis are really emotionless... I also don't like it when people say "yeah" or yea" as it sounds dismissively! First impression Is everything to me! I want to see your kindness even In a text message

Ps. I don't like kids and I don't want to ever become a parent. I just thought everyone should know that just In case. I don't want any unpleasant conversations with anyone. Not everyone wants to be friends with people who don't want kids so.. It's better to be honest. 🌸

Ps.2 I don't reply to messages I'm not Interested In even If they're long! I'm not on Reddit to pretend anything and I'm not here to be everyone's best friend. Some people lie & make empty promises to get attention. I? I'm quite selective because I know what I want.

Ps.3 I admire sensitive people who are not ashamed of crying In front of others! Crying Is not a weakness! It's not a weakness even If you're a guy 🧡

Please, If you want to talk send me a private message.

Hello! I’m Marie and I’m 28 years old. I love fashion and skincare. I really like horror movies, especially those of the slasher genre. I like to edit photos so if one day you need to edit (whichever) do not hesitate to consult me. Feel free to talk to me!

I've been ruminating on the healing poweress of a genuinely warm hug. For a moment, we can stop trying to make sense of everything, let the world carry on without us, and simply exist in the warmth of another person. Life asks so much of us already; sometimes, we just need a little softness.

With winter approaching, I'm making a case for the underrated art of getting cozy: bear hugs, side cuddles, sleepy snuggles, comfort cuddles, and those legendary “five more minutes” under-the-blanket moments. Fresh sheets, good hygiene, mutual respect, and plenty of warmth included. ☕❄️

I'm 34M, a humanist, PhD survivor, and professional overthinker learning to build a life beyond academia. I'm working on my second book, but I'm also discovering that a meaningful life isn't built from achievements alone. Sometimes, it's the little things that make it feel whole.

I'd love to meet someone who enjoys affectionate closeness, good conversation, and the freedom to be a little silly. Someone with whom we could talk about life at odd hours, laugh at absolutely nothing, or simply enjoy a comfortable silence without feeling the need to fill it.

I value kindness, emotional openness, and care that goes both ways. I think there's something lovely about a connection where neither person has to perform, impress, or have everything figured out. Just two people who feel comfortable in each other's company and let things unfold naturally, without unnecessary pressure or expectations.

I'm hoping to find a cuddle buddy for whom affection can be simple, warm, and genuine. Ideally, a platonic connection to begin with, built on mutual comfort, clear boundaries, and the kind of trust that makes a hug feel like a little exhale from the world.

So, tell me: what's your favorite kind of cuddle? The classic spoon, the head-on-chest variety, the tangled-up-in-blankets special, or something entirely your own?

If this resonates with you, send me a little introduction and tell me your favorite form of cuddle. Bonus points if you can make me smile. 🧸📚

I’m looking to make genuine friends from India who want a long-lasting friendship, not just a short-term connection. I appreciate people who put in equal effort and genuinely want to stay in touch rather than disappearing after a few conversations.

Daily chatters and late-night talkers are especially welcome! 🌙 Someone who enjoys random conversations, sharing thoughts, talking about anything and everything, and building a friendship through consistency and mutual effort. If you’re looking for the same kind of genuine connection, feel free to DM me. 😊

I’m Stella, I just turned 24, and I’m on the hunt for some new long-term friends to chat and hang out with.

​A little bit about me: I’m a total homebody and my ideal evening involves one (or all) of these things:

​💻 PC Gaming: I spend a lot of time in front of my monitor.

​🎮 Switch: For those cozy gaming moments.

​💄 Makeup: I love makeup.

​🍲 Cooking: Trying new recipes is my jam.

​👻 Horror Movies: The scarier, the better!

​I’d love to find people around my age (20s-30s) to geek out with. I’m especially looking to connect with folks in the US (or just generally on US time zones) so we can actually catch each other online!

​If we share interests and you're down for a chat, feel free to slide into my DMs! Tell me a bit about yourself too. 😊

Yo I’m a black dude living in Ireland, 6’0, 19 years old and I’m looking for some friends to talk, chill and play games.

I play on PS4, switch (sometimes) and a pc, I do Brazilian jiu-jitsu, I watch anime, I read manga, my favourite colour is blue and I go to the gym.

About me:

• I’m chill and like to joking around (sometimes).

• I can hold up a conversation well and try to give advice if needed.

• My top 5 anime are Dbz, One piece, Bleach, Jojo’s and Naruto, (I do got a top 10 though).

• My favourite movie is Rush hour and Avatar.

PC - Minecraft, REPO, Lethal Company, Roblox, Terraria, Peak, Schedule 1 and Gmod.

PS4 - GTA5, Minecraft, Red dead redemption 2, FIFA, 2K and brawlhalla.

Switch - Mario Kart 8 and the legend of Zelda tears of the kingdom (I’ll get more games soon).

I’m mostly looking for people who can hold up a conversation pretty well, play video games or talk about anime and just to vibe with.

If you’re interested in having a conversation, tell me your favourite fight in anime and why.

Hope to seeing y’all.

Heyy,I'm 22M from India, currently working abroad, and life here can get pretty repetitive sometimes. Work, come back, sleep, repeat. So I thought why not try this and meet some new people outside my usual circle.

I'm not really the kind of person who has a huge list of hobbies to flex here I mostly just like talking to people, hearing about their day, random stories, work drama, life drama, stupid things that happened, whatever honestly.

I'm usually a little reserved at first, but once I get comfortable I talk a lot more and the conversations can become completely random. One minute we'll be talking about work and the next somehow we're discussing marriage, childhood memories, food, why life is weird, or something completely useless at 1 AM.

I get bored pretty easily with the same routine, so I actually enjoy meeting people who have different lives, different experiences and different ways of looking at things.

I like badminton, music here and there, going out when I get the chance, trying different food, scrolling through random stuff online, and occasionally getting way too invested in some completely random topic.

I'm not looking for someone who has to text all day every day either. We all have work and our own lives. I just want that kind of friendship where you can randomly text each other something, disappear for a bit, come back, and it doesn't feel awkward.

Also please don't send just "hey" 😭

Tell me something random about yourself. Your current problem, something you're excited about, your annoying coworker, what you're planning for the weekend, literally anything.

Let's see if we vibe.

Gooood morning everybody how are we all on this fine Saturday?!

36 year old married guy here who loves a laugh and has great banter (self-decided but pretty sure that's right). Love getting out in the great outdoors, reading, playing guitar, gaming occasionally, watching a good series like everyone does etc

Out here looking for laid back people for chats, can be funny and relaxed or deep I'm down for either

Ugh have to go into work for a few hours today someone please save me I’ll chat about anything I just want this day to go by fast lol I’m nerdy I like the outdoors I enjoy being a homebody I have a dark sense of humor and my mind lives in the gutter haha can’t wait to chat

Had some things to do today, but I've finally found myself alone, and well, you know how these things go. I wanna make new friends.

As for who I am, the fun in conversation is finding out, but I love the gym, reading, writing, making music and a lot more!

I'd prefer if you were in Africa or the Middle East. But honestly, anyone's welcome.

I can carry conversation well enough, but help me out.

Hope to see you in my DMs.

Please be 30+.

Hey, thanks for checking out my post! As the title says, I'm a 20-year-old boy from the UK. I'm into a few video games but mainly Dead By Daylight, Resident Evil and GTA. I've been a huge GTA fan my whole life, since I was about 4 years old lol. I'm a massive nerd when it comes to Spider-Man, I love the comics and the games and I have a few posters on my wall. I really loved the Superman movie as well as the rest of James Gunn's DC projects. I'm also a Nightwing fan and I really like Tom Taylor's run despite the common consensus between fans. I also watch anime and my favourite is JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. I figured that I'm probably not the only one that's feeling bored and wants to meet new people, so I thought I'd make a quick post on here to see if anyone wants to talk. Feel free to drop a DM 🕸️🕷️ (I also prefer talking to people who are older so please message if you are!)

A little about me. I'm not into a lot of things but whatever I am into I enjoy thoroughly - that holds for hobbies as well as people haha.

I like to admire and enjoy art - now that could be in any form. Anime, movies, books, music, sports. I consider people an art too - so be cautious because I might spend irrational amount of time admiring you too haha. I am a huge movie and show addict. I practiced MMA in the past. I've recently started learning guitar. If you're someone who enjoys a random dose of thoughtful conversations once in a while, you'll love me.

I'm decently humorous and great at playing with words (enough to keep you on your toes) and a good listener. I love to talk about my and your life, bitch about a person one of us don't like, vent/rant and just chill out in a non-judgemental space saying whatever comes to mind.

I also had a breakup about 3 months ago. So maybe I'm looking more for a person who could fill in that place for me where we hangout and chill on calls, have nicknames, flirt and tease, rant, be unfiltered, be cringe or cheesy and just share a daily life together. This is obviously if vibe matches.

So yeah if this sounds like something you're into and enjoy then shoot me a DM. Let's see where the wind takes us.

Looking forward to hearing from you all.

Hello.28M here. I love reading books, watching movies and documentaries.

I do not usually open up to people I know in real life so I came here to talk. Nothing serious, just relaxed conversations, a little connection, and maybe something long term. Who knows, we might even become good friends over time.

Name 3 things you love, 3 things you hate.
