[M4F] M30 | I can hold a conversation. Can you?

• Upvotes

M30 here, back on Reddit after a long break!

Looking to meet some interesting women and have some good conversations.

A little about me, I work in digital marketing, basically make strategies for brands. Outside work, I'm into sports, long drives, travelling, hiking and exploring new places. And then there are days when me and my bed are best friends and doing absolutely nothing is the only plan 😂

I can hold a conversation, but I'm not really into dry replies or feeling like I'm interviewing someone. If you enjoy yapping, can match the energy and don't mind a little banter, we'll probably get along well.

Age and location aren't really an issue for me as long as we vibe. Open to both short term and long term conversations, just be honest about what you're looking for.

And just so I know you've actually read the whole post, tell me one secret about yourself that nobody knows when you message me. 👀

Hoping to meet some fun people and have a few conversations that don't end after the first five messages.

Looking for conversation

• Upvotes

36M getting out of a 10+ year marriage and it feels like I totally forgot. How to talk to people and it was never like that before and didn't notice when it happened I got my friends. I'm a leader at work. I have no problem talking in front of people or to crowds but when it comes to one on one conversation it's tough after the first couple minutes, especially when it comes to women, I'm very respectful, but usually very short trying to end the encounters as possible so would love to find someone to talk to

[M4F] 32M anyone to chat with?

• Upvotes

Hey everyone! 👋
32, married, and looking for something pretty simple: a genuine friendship. Nothing romantic, just two people getting to know each other and having good conversations.

I’ve been living with Type 1 diabetes for 3 years, and I also struggle with obesity, which means I spend quite a lot of time at home. My social circle is small, so I figured… why not meet someone new here? 😄

I’m pretty open-minded and can talk about almost anything — sports, video games, movies, music, life, random late-night thoughts… you name it.
I’m a good listener, I like making people laugh, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know what makes other people tick.

If you’re also looking for a friendship and someone to chat with, my DMs are open! 😊
Who knows, maybe a random Reddit post turns into a great friendship.

[M4M] 41 M east coast for guy friends

• Upvotes

Like the title says. 41 M on the east coast. Looking to make male guy friends. Making friends later in life has become so hard. Some chat for a day or two then nothing. I like play video games. PS 5 here. Currently playing Fortnite. I work in tech. Most days I like my job. I have a great sense of humor and love to laugh. Also like watching different shows, movies and documentaries. This may be weird but I like to play horror sleep stories when I am going to bed. I’m sure there is a million things I could say but hit me up if you want to talk more.

[R4R] 48M. Upbeat, supportive, professional, fun

• Upvotes

I'm looking to have fun, positive conversations. The kind of thing where you talk with someone and feel a click, the kind of thing where you have a friend in your pocket whose intelligence is not artificial.

I'm a 48-year-old Midwesterner who still puts on a suit and tie for work every day. I'm usually fully caffeinated. I get along with just about everyone, and I don’t judge. I'm upbeat, positive, and genuinely encouraging. I’m good at drawing people out of their shells and creating a comfortable space where they feel safe being themselves. I'm a decent conversationalist. I am usually sporadically available for chats during the day CST or at night. Come say hi.

Birthday today, feeling worthless

• Upvotes

Today, Saturday, 24 October 2026, is my 37th birthday. I am 37M and autistic, and this year has been by far the worst year of my whole life.

I feel like almost everyone hates me. My own parents, both sides of my extended families, and almost everyone whom I know hate me. I have neve had friends in life, and I have lost almost 30 kg (65 lb) since June from extreme stress, worrying and depression.

I have no idea what to do or how to feel. I am just tired of life and everything. Maybe just want to talk.

[R4R] 32F - The rarest thing in my life is finding resonance

• Upvotes

....it's all fun and games until you have to describe yourself.

Most people tell me I'm intelligent, give good advice, know what I want and logical. If you're into mbti, mine is INTJ and I've never been mistyped. However, I've done a lot of inner work and reflection and I've grown to seek more human connection that brings me resonance, laughter and value. The world is wide, and I wonder if I'll find a good friend here.

I did Biology for my undergrad and I like science. My drive is mostly to understand what the truth is at the center of all things. Currently, I'm planning to pursue my studies in a particular field. Part of it is to also start a new life elsewhere.

I've travelled to a lot of countries (guess the number).

I'm terrible at answering questions on favourites because it's so final and hierarchical. So hobbies..I try to get a good sleep at night, catch the sunrise to align my circadian rhythm, meditate, stretch and do some reflection. I like watching the skies and do a bit of gardening or reading a book while getting my vitamin D (I am totally grossed out by worms though. I'd freeze and panic if I see one). I play my piano sometimes, I have 2 cats, I love puzzles, crosswords, jigsaw, board games etc. I tend to cook everyday, not because I like it, but because I'd be craving something and cooking is easy to me, and I do it fast. Ironically, and paradox is perhaps my middle name, I absolutely despise routine with a passion. I mostly do things because I think they're 'right' so I have to do it.

I do listen to music (mostly when I work out) and watch movies/tv shows sometimes, but I find them to be less interesting these days. Oversupply, same slob. I hardly finish whatever I watch, and I don't have Netflix because it doesn't interest me. I find too much screentime to be exhausting, so it's not my main thing but rather a way to spend quality time with someone. I don't play games, but that's only because I get competitive sometimes (healthily) and I know I'd obsess over it and waste a lot of my time until I finish it. So I just don't start. But I'll play scrabble, chess or quick games with you.

What I value most is freedom. I hate being told what to do and when to do it which is why I avoid a 9-5 job. I started a few small business on the side and since I work on my own and I like studying, it'd be good if I can talk to someone while doing that. I'm too inside my mind, my soul is probably half decomposing hence this post. I also started my own sports club several years ago and it currently has over 1k+ members (and like a true INTJ psychopath, I handle it all alone. Send help). I organize games for 30-40 players every week, and that's mostly my social outlet where I get to meet new people. I'm also picking up new hobbies like sketching and learning bachata. Getting into some spanish songs lately, so some recommendations would be great.

I probably sound serious here but I'm pretty unserious when I'm comfortable and relaxed. I like people who have depth, can handle any conversation and who naturally makes me laugh (I am in dire need of laughing more). I'd like to talk to people who are working on themselves: emotionally, intellectually, physically etc but also know how to be light, silly and fun. I crave depth and resonance. We either click or we don't. If you want to start a conversation, tell me about yourself, where you're from and we'll see if our personalities match :) Plus point if you're a healthy ENTP. I also do not want to talk to another NTJ as I've already mostly been living inside my head, and I'm familiar with the patterns. I'm open to talking to both men and women, including cool grandmas who have gotten their lives together that they're back to being a girl and the world is just a fun playground to them.

Note: I am not looking for nsfw. I will chase you down to a hole, post your pictures on reddit and make sure your account gets banned if you try.

34F Looking for friends that will actually stick around

1 Upvotes

I'm so tired of being ghosted. I don't care what gender you are, I just want people to talk to. If you need to vent, I'll listen. I'd love if you could do the same for me.

I just got out of a long-term relationship where he was my only friend so I'm pretty isolated. Doesn't help he moved me to a different state right before breaking up with me.

Some things I'm into are Marvel, horror films, and cooking. I'm wanting to get into gaming on my PC but I don't want to start alone. I'd love if someone wanted to talk on the phone or send pictures/voice notes.

Don't attempt to start a conversation with "hey". Tell me an interesting fact about yourself, please.

After a long work week looking for some chill conversation to pass the night. Looking for like-minded people to have conversations with, either short or long term. I am open to long-term friendship too if we click.

I love to read, watch movies, travel, play board and video games. I also enjoy exploring cafes for the best lattes and cold brews. Recently have been doing yoga working out regularly and loving it. Would love to hear your favorite grounding activities. Please introduce yourself rather than just saying hi

30M Looking for people with nerdy mutual interests to yap with

2 Upvotes

Sup!

I'm a dude from Kiwiland looking for some nerdy people to be buddies with. A big ol' gamer here. Am I good at games? No. Am I getting better? Also no. Am I a fkn delight to be around? It's still a no. But you better believe I can fkn yap my butt off about nerdy shit and I have a pretty decent EQ level which is impressive for a gamer so, that's a small win and by god I will take whatever wins I can get these days lol

I like the Souls series, The Elder Scrolls, World of Warcraft, Diablo 4, Dead by Daylight, Alien Isolation, Resident Evil, Little Nightmares/Reanimal, Hollow Knight, so many. I've been thinking of trying Monster Hunter for ages. Big big big Magic the Gathering fan as well. One might even call me a cardboard crack addict.

Do you like to yap about lore? Did Miquella do nothing wrong? Do you fear the Old Blood? Which MTG colour pair best represents you? Are the Dunmer the best fictional race in fantasy and why is the answer of course they are? Does Kara's ending in BSG make you cry like a lil weenie? If any of these questions float your goat then we might just get along!

On the side I enjoy some fantasy/sci-fi/horror movies and shows, a cheeky bit of world building and character concepts, listening to music and conjuring dark deities out of the void of space.

I have a lot of free time and my sleep is whack, so most times should suit me - but I am for the most part looking for people on the West Coast of the US, in Australia or also from NZ. If you are from outside these regions then gaming or spending time together in the future might be more difficult when it comes to ping n stuff, but feel free to reach out for a text friend at least!

I have some health issues and my head do a hurty a lot so I might not always be at 100, but I definitely put a lot of effort into my friendships regardless. I take a big interest in other people and I expect the same in return so, please ask questions and try to get to know me, and message first once in a while. I'm giga fkn gay so please just be chill with the LGTVs obviously, and be in your mid 20s or older. Gender doesn't matter to me either. But yeah, thanks for reading and hope to hear from ya!
