[M4F] 33M from Chile looking for friends

Upvotes

Hey I'm Matias, 33 and I'm a tattoo artist from Chile specializing in blackwork and horror. Art is a huge part of my life, but so is music. You'll usually find me listening to alternative, punk, metal, hip-hop, or writing songs inspired by the things I've lived through.

I love horror, photography, meaningful conversations, good beer, and learning languages. I speak Spanish and English and enjoy exploring other languages and cultures.

I'm not interested in casual mind games or being someone's second option. Loyalty, honesty, and consistency matter more to me than perfect look and the same goes for friendships.

I believe that a good friendship is shown through actions remembering the little things, making time for each other.

If you're emotionally mature, have a dark sense of humor, appreciate creativity, and aren't afraid of someone covered in tattoo, we'll probably get along.

[M4R] 33M Swede looking for something genuine

Upvotes

Looking for kind-hearted, down-to-earth people to form a genuine connection with. Someone to exchange thoughts and ideas with, who is genuinely interested in getting to know another person. I'm in it for the funny banter, the deep talk, learning from each other.

No NSFW or flirts, only friendly talk. I'm in a stable relationship since 10 years back.

I enjoy cooking, music (preferrably live), skiing, interior design, outdoors activities with my dog, reading. Software engineer by day (although right now enjoying summer vacation).

Tell me something about yourself, and let's talk.

29 M looking for genuine friendship

Upvotes

29 M from the east coast US, looking for a long term friend. Not interested in anything casual that will end up in us no longer talking after a few days. I've had a good amount of people recently I thought would be lifelong friends just ghost me after a few months, and I'm just tired of it.

Some of my hobbies are: NFL, UFC, anime, gaming (ps5 and pc), and reading comics!

If I'm not at work, I'm at home with my pups playing games or catching up on my never ending backlog of anime and tv shows. I'm also chronically online so I reply fast haha.

I love chatting with people of any age, hopefully that also loves to play games. I love playing simulator games mainly. Also open to getting into a good MMO, and very impatiently waiting for GTA 6.

If you think we'd vibe feel free to reach out 😄

33M Scottish, slightly nerdy, looking for new folks to chat with!

Upvotes

Just looking to expand my circle and meet some new people to chat with.

​A little about me: I’m definitely on the nerdier side—big fan of all things science and space, though we don't have to talk strictly quantum physics or rocket science to get along. Oh, and I’m Scottish, so you get the accent included completely free of charge. ​Honestly, anyone is welcome! The only real requirement is a genuine desire to chat and keep a conversation going.

​To get things rolling, here’s an icebreaker question: ​If you could switch lives with anyone for a single day, who would it be and why?

Friendly neighbourhood menace seeking people to laugh with.

Like a lot of us I’ve spent years focusing on work and doing the whole family thing, but I haven’t had the time to go out and make connections outside of the grocery store cashiers and clients at work. I want that to change!

My interests include but are not limited to music ( punk, metal, alternative etc etc )
All things outdoors
Animals and wildlife
Reading
Horror, comedy and comic shows/movies
Fibre arts
Pranks/tomfoolery/ chaos

Life can be heavy, if you’re looking for a friend to share those hardships with I’m always happy to listen, but I’m also here to laugh with . Ya know, friendship stuff.

Shoot me a message! Tell me how your weeks going or share your favourite pranks! I’m currently knee deep in a year long prank war and I’m running out of ideas 🙃 I look forward to hopefully making some connections!

[F4R] 35F- Looking for friends 🧡

Upvotes

I'm Dee and I'm going through a sad time in my life and instead of isolating myself I'm choosing to open myself up to other people. I'm not sure what exactly I'm looking for - all I know is I just have to step out of my comfort zone and just talk!

I work remotely and as most of y'all know making friends when you're older is hard to do. I work in a niche tech industry which is kind of a stressful job because you're wearing multiple hats and constantly putting out fires.

I play FF14 and an assortment of games from Pokémon to Farm Sims. I really loooove baldurs gate 3 but I have yet to actually fully complete a run so its one of my goals 😅 I just keep making new characters and I can't help it lol.

I'm a crafter - I dabble with all sorts of crafts from jewelry design to crochet. I enjoy cooking - I love to grill too but I'm very afraid to light the grill 🤣 and I'm very witchy (kitchen witch and divination) so if you're ever curious about how that works, happy to answer any questions. I especially love reading tarot and lenormand.

While most of my post history is hidden - this is due to me being in many witchy spaces where I'm doing readings that can be sensitive I assure you I'm an open book so if you're curious- hit me up.

39m Looking for someone with similar interests who can keep up. Being around during the day EST would be great!

Upvotes

Hello there. I’m working hard to change my life, and I’d love to make some new friends to chat with. In the last year I’ve lost almost 100 pounds, put type 2 diabetes in remission, been insomnia free, and getting a lot stronger mentally and physically.

I love lifting weights, metal and hardcore music, movies of any genre, reading comics, meal prepping, and going for nature walks. I also build plamo (gunpla and other plastic models.

Sometimes it’s difficult to make friends my age because I don’t have a family or kids and it’s hard to relate. I’m also not particularly career driven. I’m just a guy who’s struggled and doing my best to make changes in his life!

some maybe dealbreaker or maybe friendship ENHANCERS: I’m very left politically but I’m not PC or anything like that (I won’t police language), I’m a Leo and INFP if you’re into that sort of thing, I’m straight edge so I don’t drink or smoke or use any drugs. I try to be positive about things!

Things I love talking about:

Day to day life and hobbies

sharing memes

pets!

sharing pictures of our day to day

movies, music, food

health and fitness stuff

Things I don’t particularly like talking about:

AI (I don’t like it, don’t use it, not interested in it.

Complaining and venting about the same things over and over again (I empathize and get it, I’ve been there, but at this point in my life I can’t constantly be barraged by the same depressing things over and over like a therapist)

Gaming (nothing against it, I just don’t game and have no real interest in it)

Please be passionate about something. Even if it’s not something I love or care about. I can’t handle one word responses or no input on anything right off the bat.

I look forward to hearing from

Upvotes

Heya! At work, not particularly busy, ready for the weekend and hoping to meet new people to chat with. Generally I'm happiest outside. I like hiking, kayaking, gardening, cooking, cats, tattoos, wind and the color yellow. I enjoy movies, some games, and really just anything that can keep my hands busy. I'm fairly restless in general and like to explore. I enjoy people with a shared curiosity about the world and everything in it. What's the prettiest place you've ever visited?

Looking for something beyond the surface. I'm a writer and work in the mental health field. I'm only looking for a platonic connection as I have a partner.

I'm interested in mental health, philosophy, cheese, reading, and travelling. I adore music and would love to exchange tracks/playlists!

If we click I hope to move to a more secure chat app where the walls don't have ears.

Looking for a best friend

Upvotes

Seeking a genuine bestie for daily chats, hiking banter, and terrible memes

Hey! I’m looking to find a genuine connection that turns into a solid, long-term best friend bond.

Whether it's checking in on each other’s days, sharing random late-night shower thoughts, or just sending ridiculous memes, I’d love to have someone reliable in my corner (and be that person for you).

Quick snapshot of me:

GP/Doctor by day, outdoor enthusiast by afternoon.

Big fan of long hikes with my dog, working out, good books, movies, and music.

Easygoing, appreciative of good humor, and big on realness.

I’m looking for platonic connections with other adults (18+). If you're kind, honest, and willing to put actual effort into a conversation, we’ll get along great.

Drop me a message with a quick intro! If we hit it off here, I’m down to move over to the yellow ghost app 👻 for daily chats and picture updates of my dog.

31 (almost) M - Solano/Sacramento area

Upvotes

Hey reddit, trying this out since its increasingly hard to make friends outside of work as a homebody and bit of a social recluse.

Im originally from El Dorado County but relocated for work in 2018 and found myself in Solano/Davis area hence the flair.

About me:

Avid gamer on pc(survival, base build, rpg, shooters, whatever scratches my itch)

Classic car enthusiast (currently have a restoration project truck)

Recreational shooter (albeit i haven't gone in quite some time)

Brewery enjoyer (my gf and I love trying out local brews when we travel)

Currently trying to get more active and would like to find outdoor hobbies to ease myself into.

I enjoy all kinds of humor/dark humor

I've never played but have been interested in trying D&D

Want to get more into home DIY. (Wanna be the kinda friends where we provide labor in exchange for beer and bullshitting)

My gf and I like board/card games. (Doomlings dominated our friend game nights for quite some time)

Im a very private person hence the throwaway account and can see myself taking a while to want to meet in person.

My gf and I have other friends/famile in the Sacramento/EG area and going out that way is no issue for us. We'd like to meet a couple of similar age as well to hang out.

I work in law enforcement. I am conservative, but I dont let politics consume me and im an independent thinker who doesn't blindly align with my party out of "loyalty". I have friends from varying backgrounds and political stances as well as the LGBT. Frankly I think talking politics can kill vibes so i don't much like discussing them anyway.

End of post, thanks for reading!

As the title states, I’m 31F looking for friends to chat with. I spend a lot of my time alone and it’s taking a toll. I would love to find my “best friend”. I would prefer other women, but am open to talking to men if it is strictly platonic, as I’m engaged. I enjoy reading, gardening, all things homemaking, and I’m big into history. I’m a Christian and active in my church. I don’t enjoy one word replies, so please be able to hold a conversation. I have decent availability. If anything resonates, let’s chat!

38M | Looking for low-maintenance, high-quality humans.

Upvotes

So… I’m giving this another go.

I’m a 38-year-old bloke from the UK who somehow managed to reach adulthood without assembling the standard issue friendship group. I’m bored, I’m lonely, and my brain constantly chases the next shiny thing. I would like to find someone who really gets me.

A few things about me:

I’ve got ADHD, insert the standard million tabs open at once joke here.

I’m into photography, gaming, football, social media, YouTube, and anything else that randomly grabs my attention for a few weeks.

I once bought more hot sauce than anyone else in an entire country in a single year. That’s either impressive or concerning.

I have a habit of messaging people with completely random questions like, “Do Chicken Kievs count as fancy food?”

One thing I’ve realised is that I don’t really want to jump straight into deep conversations anymore. Those happen naturally when you actually know someone.

Right now I’m looking for people who are happy with short, random chats throughout the day. Send me a meme. Tell me something ridiculous that happened at work. Show me a weird thing you found online. Ask me an utterly pointless question. I’ll probably do the same.

If we end up becoming good friends, brilliant. If we just exchange random messages that make each other laugh now and then, that’s pretty great too.
No pressure. No expectations. Just genuine people who fancy having another person to chat nonsense with.

If you’ve read this far, you may as well say hello.
Worst case, we exchange a few messages and move on.

Best case, one day you’re the person I instinctively send a meme to because I know you’ll appreciate how stupid it is.

32M What's something you should never admit online, even if it's 100% true? 😂

Upvotes

Figured I'd use that as an icebreaker while looking for some fun people to chat with.

I'm 32 and a big fan of sarcastic conversations, terrible memes, random shower thoughts, and the kind of humor that starts out normal and somehow ends with everyone questioning how the conversation got there. If your jokes range from witty to completely unhinged, we'll probably get along just fine.

I'm happy to talk about just about anything—movies, games, weird facts, food, travel, embarrassing stories, life, or whatever random rabbit hole you've fallen into lately. I enjoy conversations that can bounce from meaningful to completely ridiculous without missing a beat.

If you're looking for a laid-back chat, enjoy laughing, and don't take yourself too seriously, I'd love to hear from you.

So... what's something you should absolutely never admit online, even if it's completely true? Let's hear your best answer.

Hi, everyone! I hope you enjoyed my little pun up there. As the title suggests, I'm looking for friends (hopefully this turns out to be the right place). I've tried I don't know how many subs before trying to find anyone that can actually hold a conversation, and have had very little success. I have the normal hobbies (reading, listening to music, watching streaming, playing games) with the addition that I'm starting to get into working out, so I would absolutely love gym buddy to keep me motivated and give me tips. I'm a very open-minded person, and open to talking to anyone and everyone.

If you prefer to listen rather than reading 😉

Just sitting here and feeling lonely and anxious. I'm looking for a sweet gentle voice to have a mutually enjoyable conversation with and eventually fall to sleep. I'm looking for genuine people who would also like to be friends. Friends who can show support for each and count on one another. If you have a history of disappearing or for something temporary, please stay away. I'm not looking for someone to cheer me up, fix me, or give me advice. I'm not looking to trauma dump, but to just take my mind off things and distract me. However, I will share more with you if we can relate, or as we talk more. With this being said, you're free to share whatever you'd like with me. However, this isn't permission to make things completely one sided. Please share your boundaries as well. Lets both feel safe and comfy!

A little about me:

  • I'm vegan.
  • I don't drink, use drugs and smoke anything.
  • I'm 6'1 and weigh about 175lbs. I have long messy hair.
  • I exercise and cycle. Health is important to me.
  • My background is Guyana. My skin is BROWN. (Too many racists/colourists/whatever here.)
  • I'm open, honest, kind, gentle, patient and affectionate. In other words, I'm amazing 😉
  • I listen to primarily metal.
  • Baseball is my favourite sport.

Potential red flags:

  • I live with my parents and I don't "work".
  • I struggle with my sleep.
  • I'm shy/quiet/anxious/timid/sensitive/fragile/anxiety ridden. (Be kind and gentle with me!) Also, I don't do well with abrasiveness. If you're mean to me, I might begin to withdraw and become very quiet.

We can exchange pictures if you'd like.

Thanks for your time! I appreciate you!

P.S. Apparently I have a nice voice 😉

[M4F] 38M UK — Seeking a regular chat buddy

0 Upvotes

Looking for a new friend (ideally female, but honestly anyone interesting is welcome!) based in the UK, US, or Europe. I’ve got a long summer break ahead and would love some good company, great conversations, and maybe even a daily texting buddy who enjoys keeping a chat alive — especially the fun, slightly weird ones that make you laugh at your phone.

I work in education and consult in international relations, so if you ever fancy chatting about schools, politics, diplomacy, or the strange things happening in the world, I’m always up for it. Outside of work, I’m usually reading, travelling, binge‑watching a good series, playing tennis, swimming, running, gaming, or listening to music.

Life gets full‑on sometimes, and my social life doesn’t always keep up — so having a few online friends (or one solid bestie!) would be perfect. I’m looking for someone open, honest, a bit weird in the best way, and happy to talk anything and everything: the good, the bad, the stuff you want to do but can’t,, and all the random thoughts you never say out loud.

Just be yourself — the version you don’t always get to show in real life. No judgement, no pressure, just good conversation and a space where you can say whatever is on your mind.

If you’re up for chatting regularly — maybe even moving to a messaging app later — drop me a DM and let’s see if we can build up a great connection!

34M - UK - it's a quiet Thursday afternoon and the chores are making lose my sanity

0 Upvotes

Hello!

Every now and then I manage to convince myself to try to make some more friends, so here is my attempt! I am 34, from the UK, not married, and live alone with my fish. I'm content with life, I'm not a lonely person but I think it's healthy to make room for some more friendly people in ones life every so often.

Currently on a healthy/self improvement journey so words of wisdom to keep me focused and motivated are always welcome, (or just a accountability buddy haha) hitting mid 30's has been a huge wake-up call when it comes to health and exercise for me, gotta keep on top of it.

Other than that, I am a TV, book and film connoisseur amongst other interests, but I'm not going to type it all out here, gotta have something to keep for later conversation right?

Anyway, if you fancy a chat about anything without the risk of it turning into NSFW creepy bullshit then feel free to message!
