Good evening everyone! I am 30F from the northern plains USA. I am looking for someone to chat with and possibly become really good friends with. I want to connect and someone talk to about anything. 😊
A little about me is that I love videos games, nature, going for drives, collecting silly things. I work a full time job. I look for someone to have deep talks with. I am full of depth and would love to share it wish someone. If you’re looking for the same.. don’t be shy. 😊 thank you for reading!

I need an honest reality check because I feel taken for granted.

For my best friend's birthday, I spent days putting together a curated, handwritten gift box with jewelry, personal notes, games, and a chocolate hamper. Even generally, I rarely travel but always bring her souvenirs from my trips. She travels constantly and has never once brought me anything.

For my birthday, she handed me an unwrapped, taped shipping carton straight from an online delivery app. Inside was basic jewelry and a note that just thanked me for always listening to her rants about her boyfriend and family drama.

It is not about the money, but handing me a bare parcel with a note treating me like an emotional sponge felt careless after 15 years together.

Am I overreacting, or is this friendship completely one-sided?

Now that i have your attention and i know most people here have the attention span of a drunk pigeon ill try to somewhat make it quick and straight to the point here are some points on why you should Slide in my Dms Or maybe points on why you shouldnt? your choice really

* i am 26, i am soon not gonna be in my early 20s and that is... shocking, like where tf did the 18-26 years gone to, i have no idea, prob have memory loss :D

* cats i love those mf's, those evil bastards have a choke hold on me, no wonder they tricked the Egyptians into making them their gods

* my attention span is that of a flat earther brain, aka it does not exist. tiktok ruined me send help

* i have few hobbies but u can always use that to progress the convo later so need to mention them now

* i dont get offended at all so try your luck at roasting me.

i have no issues assuming the dad position in the friendship and show u the care u never had

now to why you MIGHT not want to be my bestie

* random bursts of roastness/flirtatiousness take that how you would. i will roast you like a bully and compliment you like we've been married for decades

* high maintenance so i expect to text frequently but i dont mind if you disappear during the day

Bored

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.

Also, if you are going to ghost, then please do not reply as most people do.

I'm 35m from northern USA, would love a females opinion about something ! Please reach out thank you

22M UK) I’m looking for new friends ideally long term friends, don’t mind where you’re from but still include it + your age so we can work out our time difference! Would be great if we could speak often too, would prefer to move apps, whenever but ideally after a bit as my notifs are quite bugged on here unfortunately

I really enjoy getting to know each other overtime just hearing more so about one’s life instead of just hobbies. Very talkative if the other person is putting effort into the convo, but also a listener too. Wanting a friendship where we can talk about our days, random things, anything tbh. Open to voice calling too

Interests - I’m into cooking & baking!Listening to music, travelling to different countries & in the country, i like gaming too, long walks, watching shows & photography. Going to parks & trails

Stuck waiting till morning to switch back to nights cause I work nights on and off. I’m looking for chats and potential friends to talk to regularly.

Love to talk with anyone about anything! Don’t matter who you are or where you are from. Just be yourself that’s all I ask here!

I’m a bit of a gentle caring soul. I like to send good vibes and thought to everyone’s way. I use my 11:11 wishes to hope people are doing okay and know they matter kinda thing. Empathy is my thing.

More about me I’m married and happily so! I have 3 cats, a gecko and 2 frogs! I’m also into art, I digital paint people and monsters. I love nature and animals, I have a bunch myself. I love fantasy and world building as well. I don’t play a ton of games but do try to follow some!

Anyway if bored or need an ear feel free to reach out!

If don’t know what to say tell me your least favorite color and why?

What’s the strangest random encounter you had?

Or if you could live in any universe what would you live in?

Ok so what would you do? I have this newer friend and I shared an event that looked fun to go to together! We agreed on a time to meet up and it was all set in stone. She then all of a sudden texts me that she’s helping her sister and newborn all night and won’t be able to attend the event we talked about. Mind you this isn’t the first time she’s dropped plans. I am really upset and kind of pissed off. One because I told her about this event two weeks ago and we agreed on a time to meet. Two this event her about two weeks ago we both were excited about the event and happy to finally have the time to hang. What would you do or say or not say to this friend? Ugh.

i’m 21f and my best friend is 20f. we’ve been online best friends for around 6 years and she’s great, she’s probably the only person who understands me. but lately i’ve been feeling super jealous of her for a multitude of reasons.

she’s skinnier than me. i know weight doesn’t matter…it does to me. she’s like, barely 100lbs and im 115. i already feel huge but compared to her i feel like an enormous monster. i’m so jealous, she’s just naturally skinny and always has been. it’s not fair.

she’s more wealthy than me. her family is well off and she can basically get whatever she wants. she spends money carelessly because she never has to worry, and she’s clueless about a lot of things in the world.

she has more support. she has access to regular therapy, and is on a medication that helps her. meanwhile i can’t afford therapy and ive been on about 5 different medications, none of which have worked. i’m so jealous that she has a support system. i just suffer in silence because my family don’t understand and i don’t have other friends. i don’t talk to her about my struggles much because i don’t want to burden her.

should i just tell her im jealous of her? i feel like resentment is going to start building up if i don’t.

So I (26F) have been very close with one of my friends (27F) for the past few years. We joke that our relationship is like a mix of being sisters, friends, and a married couple lol. We’ve seen and supported each other through so many ups and downs. And we’ve also navigated a lot of tension and conflict over the course of our friendship, which I think has strengthened it in some ways and maybe weakened it in others?

Our relationship is currently in a really good place and I feel like things have been going well. But I’ve noticed internally that I’ve been starting to feel more possessive and jealous than I ever have before. Like whenever she hangs out with other friends or goes on dates and tells me about it. It’s to the point where I question if I’m actually in love with her or something because I’ve never felt this way with friends before.

I don’t verbalize any of this or act on it in any way. I’m still supportive and kind. But inside I feel like I’m at war with myself. I’ve cried because it feels so threatening, like a personal attack. I have other friends and other people in my life that I’m close to, but not like this. And I know I have some insecurities and attachment issues that have contributed to this, but I guess I’m just seeking ways to manage it and get it under control.

I’m in therapy and actively discussing it there, but I was hoping to get advice from anyone that’s ever felt similarly on how to feel better and less deranged 😭

Looking for some genuine connections, ive been a loner and outcast most of my life, so I can really relate to anybody that has felt the same way! I'd like to think my heart is full of love and warmth, and I've dealt with depression and anxiety so anybody with similar issues wont bother me in the slightest. Im also very shy, but im a hugeee yapper when im comfortable, and love listening to other people yap too! I love to play games, watch shows and movies, cook, write, and play the piano. Hit me up if you're interested, would love some new people to vibe with and have deep connections with! North America and 18+ only please!

Hey. How are you? Do you want to potentially make acquaintances? I’m chill, you’re chill. Tell me about yourself. We will probably get along even better if you do not have a filter

If we vibe, that’s great. If not, nothing personal and no hard feelings

I’m in college and pretty bored, so I figured I’d chat with random people. I love video games, movies, and TV shows and I like going on walks and study chem. 

(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.

Hey! I’m 24 and based in London. I go to a lot of rock/metal gigs and I’d like to make a long-term friend who wants to be a regular gig buddy.

I’m easy to get along with and prefer low-pressure hangouts, whether that’s just going to a gig, grabbing food after, or chatting about music. I'm into other things as well, but I'd primarily like to find someone that enjoys live music.

My taste leans towards heavy metal and heavier subgenres (thrash, doom, metalcore, death, black), but I’m always open to discovering new bands too.

I’ve already got some gigs lined up and I’m always interested in finding new ones.

I already go to gigs fairly often and enjoy planning ahead, so it would be great to meet someone else who’s into live music and let a friendship grow naturally around that.

Ideally I'd like to meet someone who enjoys going to gigs too, whether you're already going regularly or looking to get into going more.

If you’re London-based (or nearby), in your 20s, feel free to send a message with your age, location, and tell me a band you’ve been listening to or a great gig you’ve been to recently

Hello, my name is Alexander, I'm 21m, from South America. My hobbies are playing videogames, listening to music, working out, reading and watching series or movies. I have a cat. I speak English and Spanish. Comment or DM me if you want to be friends and chat. I also play on PS5 so DM me if you wanna be PSN friends too.

You know when you come across something completely stupid and your first thought is, I need to send this to someone and then realise you do not really have anyone to send it to?

Yeah. That is pretty much why I am here.

I am looking to make some new friends and hopefully find a few people I genuinely click with. Not just the usual few messages, exchanging interests, and then slowly becoming strangers. I mean an actual friendship where talking to each other eventually just becomes a normal part of the day.

I like those friendships where you can randomly send a meme, complain about something that happened at work, recommend a movie, talk about something completely pointless for an hour, or somehow end up having a surprisingly serious conversation at 1 AM.

A little about me: I am 29 and from India. I work as a technical trainer, so most of my weekdays are taken up by work, but outside of that I am into movies, horror, cricket, casual gaming, reading, working out, and generally going down random internet rabbit holes.

I can talk about movies for way too long, especially horror, but I am also perfectly happy talking about something I know absolutely nothing about. You do not need to have the same interests as me. In fact, I would rather hear about something you are obsessed with that I have never tried.

I am usually a little quiet when I first start talking to someone, but once I get comfortable I can become surprisingly talkative. I like conversations that do not feel like an interview where we can jump between completely unrelated topics without worrying about keeping the conversation interesting every second.

I am not expecting anyone to be available 24/7 either. We all have our own lives. I just want the effort to feel mutual and hopefully build something that lasts longer than a few days of “hey, how are you" conversations.

Maybe we end up talking regularly. Maybe we watch something together, play a game, exchange ridiculous memes, or just become the person with each other randomly messages when something happens.

No pressure to force anything. Let's just talk and see if we actually get along.

When you message me, tell me something about yourself instead of just saying hey.A movie you love, something you are currently obsessed with, your favourite game, a weird opinion you have, something that happened today,literally anything works.

Bonus points if you can carry a conversation and occasionally send me something completely random for no reason. 😄

My name's Annie. I am mostly looking for someone to spend time with, share stuff with, give all my attention and care to, and someone to play games with. I will preface saying I'm kind of nuts for Project Zomboid, and I'd love someone to play with.

Summed up, play games, talk a lot, and watch movies with.

As for the rest, here's a bit about me: I enjoy sci-fi, drawing, painting, and I do a lot of gaming too. (I am super fixated on Project Zomboid, but I am up to trying other games, I've recently been very into Life is Strange). I also enjoy researching crime, psychology, and biology/neuropsychology at times. I have quite the fixation on the Chernobyl disaster, and radiation as a whole. All types of zombie media, too. I have an interest for "odd" movies, especially the apocalyptic and/or thriller kind. Terminator (1&2) is a personal favorite.

EDIT: Send me an actual message, not just introducing yourself like it's a job interview, where there's little i can go off on to start a conversation. throw an icebreaker, something! ask questions! (here's me suggesting an icebreaker, is a hotdog a sandwich? why, or why not?). Please, preferably no one over 24.

no nsfw and please be mindful with the conversation…i’m looking for normal friendly talk but if it’s anything other than that then sorry…

Hi, Im Sem, a 19 year old university student from estonia

bear with me here,

Recently I realized I grew too dependant on one person, my partner, and after talking we decided to take distance from oneanother as the feeling was mutual, we both needed to find ourselves again

I realized i dont have anyone i can regularly chat with in my life, and i want to fix that. I want connection with more people and i want to spend my time doing things i enjoy. I mostly play video games, but i also write, draw, crochet, cook, sew, and overall do creative things

I heavily enjoy being on call with people, we don't need to be doing something together but just having someone i can talk to without needing to pick up my phone and pause from what im doing is really nice

im also trans-masc, and i wanted to clarify that because to the creeps out there: no, there is no way of "fixing" me. dont dm me if that's your goal

if its not, and you want to be a part of my journey, feel free to dm me with the word pumpkin! thank you for reading

I(35M) have been friends with someone(36M) since highschool and I think I've finally come to the conclusion that our friendship is on life support. First off I moved a while ago and our friendship has been long distance and our schedules coincide a lot so we hardly have free time at the same time. Now I moved again last year so the free time we had to talk is gone with my new schedule. Plus communication is more difficult bc he prefers to call than text and I'm the opposite based on our respective schedules. All of this has lead to our friendship being incredibly strained. He's not a bad guy but there's no helping the situation. At this point I'm just going to let it play out and just move on organically. What do guys think I should do?
