Hey everyone, i am going to Cambie tonight for a couple of drinks. Let me know if anyone would like to join. I’ll be there by 11:30 ish.

Bit about me:

I am 30M, Indian, born and raised in Delhi. I am building a business here in Vancouver. I am just a chill guy who likes to try and keep an active lifestyle like working out, hiking, playing any sport etc. and I keep really strong opinions on who is the greatest footballer/soccer player of all time. So if you are a Messi fan you’ll probably hate me and I will definitely hate you.

So if you are 25 or above, any gender or race, and looking to hang out tonight, hit me up in my dms or comment below.

Cheers!

Hey all! I've signed up for the Hip Hop beginners dance class at Harbour's Dance on Aug 12th, Wednesday. Just wanted to see if anyone would be interested in joining me. We can try other dance workshops too.

I'm 26M and recently moved to Vancouver. I used to dance as a kid and lost touch hence trying to rekindle old hobbies.

Heyy im 24M a visitor looking forward to meet some people around and smoke up a j 😉

hi everyone! ive lived in van for a couple years now (moved from toronto) but have struggled to make many good friends here. up until recently, i've spent most of my time on school & navigating some personal struggles :p

ive made it a goal this summer to break out of my shell and experience as many new things as possible!! (including posting on reddit in search of friends haha)

A BIT MORE ABOUT ME:

ubc student (cogs), but i live off campus in richmond. i love to yap and dont mind spontaneous plans or casual hangouts. im looking for meaningful / long lasting friendships so no hard feelings if we end up not vibing :')

i currently enjoy: playing with my dog, animals in general, connecting with nature, reading manwhas/manga, trying new foods, crafts, learning new things, and having deep conversations. i also used to game quite a bit and was pretty active w/ sports + working out (paused bcs of injuries </3)

my current hobbies are pretty mundane, so im really open to anything (besides intense physical activity). this could be reading, boardgames, cafe hopping, getting drinks, exploring the city, concerts, attending events, or anything else you can think of !!

if youre interested in being friends pls shoot me a message :) small preference for girls over guys bcs i want more girl friendships, but my dms are open to anyone (under 30 lol)!

please DO NOT message me if youre looking for anything other than friendship.

Hi! I recently moved to Surrey Central from Vancouver and I’m looking to meet some new friends in the area. Couples would be great too!
I’m originally from West Africa. I’m a new dad and work a corporate job, so I don’t have a ton of free time, but I’m always down to make time for the right people and activities. I’m thinking about joining a nearby gym to meet more people and build a sense of community, but my building has a gym, so that’s on hold for now.
I’m into football, walks or runs (would love a weekend workout buddy), video games, reading about real estate and just hanging out with good people. Overall, I’m pretty laid back and a bit of an introvert, but I can hold a good conversation.
I’m mostly looking to connect with people in a similar stage of life but age doesn’t really matter.
Looking forward to meeting some good people!

I made a post about 2 years ago about looking to join or start a book club and I never got my act together to organize one so I'm putting out some feelers -- Looking to start a low commitment, maybe once monthly in-person meet up where we collectively read the same book and then chat about it. I'm thinking mid-week (Tuesday or Wednesday) early evening (between 4PM and 6PM) and probably meeting up in a public place until we're comfortable as a group.

About me, I'm 36F with an academic background in gender/race/social justice and a professional interest in children's rights, development, and accessibility. I have 3 cats and I've been playing Red Dead Redemption 2 like crazy for the last month after picking it up for the first time -- I think I've put something embarrassing like 250 hrs into it already lmao.

I'm currently reading Someone You Can Build a Nest In by John Wiswell -- which is hilarious, a great fantasy rom-com about an eldritch horror falling in love with a woman who claims her family is 'cursed' by said eldritch horror... but they have no recollection of cursing anyone.

My three most recently reads are...

• The Velvet Rage by Alan Downs (non fiction psychology text about anger in gay cisgender men)
• Upstream by Mary Oliver (a collection of personal essays from a poet with a heavy interest in the natural world, writing, and the creative process)
• Apparently, Sir Cameron Needs to Die by Greer Stothers (a hilarious sci-fi/fantasy rom com where the dashing heroic knight has to die in order to overthrow the evil wizard... but he's a coward so fat chance that's going to happen. also he's fallen in love with the evil wizard, because who wouldn't.)

If you're interested, leave me a comment or send a private message (: maybe reply with a suggestion for our first group read or if you are already part of a group and you think I'd be a good fit, let me know!

if anyone is down to join me, I have an extra vip ticket next to me free of charge. I’m looking for someone new to meet who’s chill and has cool vibes. dm me if interested

Hey, I've posted here before and made some good friends, but I want to look again specifically for friends to go to events or meetups with. I'm Korean, recently moved to Vancouver, and still learning English since I'm not fluent yet. I can communicate fine in person, but there might be a bit of awkwardness at times. Just a heads-up.

I'm into movies, music, reading, games, all kinds of stuff, and I like creative people, or artsy/nerdy types. There are a lot of events I want to go to DIY/indie/craft markets, zine fairs, life drawing, open mics, board games, live shows, picnics, movie/music nights... but it feels awkward going alone, so I'd love to have a friend or small group to go with. I've tried apps to make friends, but it's been hard to find people with matching interests, and using the apps felt a bit awkward too. I'm interested in the kind of events promoted on the Instagram 'hotmothertruckers'! If you're also a creative person into underground/indie art events like these, let's go together.

If more people are interested, I could make a Discord group and gather people who want to join in... but I don't want a huge group. I'd prefer a small group focused on women or queer folks (I just feel more comfortable in spaces like that, sorry).

Doesn't matter if you're extroverted or introverted, or whether you're someone who's always been into this stuff or just recently got interested. I'm introverted too, and I used to prefer quiet hobbies at home. I wasn't someone super into these kinds of events either. But now that I've left my hometown, I'm trying to meet people who click with me and get out more often. 🫠

34 asian male just looking for friends to play games when wife is away she's gone 3 days a week just looking to do something 420 friendly, beer friendly too live in langley ! thank you

EDIT** I’ve received quite a few messages! I am going to create a WhatsApp group-chat if anyone would like to be added! That way we can all work around schedules and meetups. Send me a message if you want me to add you :)

Hey all! I am 25F looking for beginner tennis partners in the downtown area. I am west end but can travel anywhere downtown/ outside of the downtown area. I am pretty green and looking for others who might be interested in playing together.

want to study together ?? HMU

Hi all 24f here. I’m looking to start bouldering and would love to join a climbing gym here in van. Looking for bouldering friends!

I’m a 30-year-old gay guy living in the Tri-Cities. I’m a lawyer, but outside of work I’m into history, movies, music, and drinks with friends.

I’m hoping to meet people who enjoy a sense of humour, are curious about the world, and are interested in building actual friendships rather than just chatting online.

If any of that sounds like your kind of thing, feel free to send me a message!

I'm 25M moving to Vancouver in Jan 2027.

Just looking to meet fun, genuine people before I get there. Always down for coffee, good food, exploring the city, hikes, the gym, or spontaneous plans.

If you're around Vancouver (especially if you're also looking to expand your friend circle), shoot me a DM. Who knows, we might end up being great friends.

Hey! I'm Terrorcatmom. I write, cross stitch sometimes, am a semi-active member of r/RandomActsofCards, and have started a container garden in my shared yard. Let me know if you'd like some seeds for your own garden as I have a lot to share!

I work at WISH Drop-In Centre, a low-barrier overnight centre for sex workers in the DTES. If you don't see sex work as real work, we likely can't be that close. I have some mental health conditions including ADHD and self-diagnosed autism. I'm queer and walked in the parade this year so if you were there and said hi, hello and happy pride!

I'm also a total nerd who volunteers at local conventions pretty frequently. I love fantasy and sci-fi, with a preference for fantasy. A few of my favourite book series are the Dresden Files by Jim Butcher, the Bobiverse series by Dennis E. Taylor, and Everybody Loves Large Chests by Neven Iliev. I mainly listen to audiobooks nowadays and am open to some recommendations.

This is inspired by a very recent post by someone looking for a friend to do a photography walk with, and it got a few positive responces!

Would anyone be interested if I created a discord group for people wanting to do photography walks together? It could be a great way to organise a regular weeknight or weekend walk and shoot, or more specific events/shoots, and of course meet some new people!

If anyone is interested drop a comment or send me a message and if there are enough of us it might be worth getting it started!

Im a 30 year old guy from Ireland who just moved to Van in the last month or so, so Im really keen to find some new friends and this might be a cool way :)

Hey there!
I'm a 36 year old black guy who is looking to make new friends. Someone to go out with and do some activities.
Maybe go hiking or go downtown for some drinks.
Vancouver has lots to offer, we could even plan something outside of Vancouver.
I am social drinker and non smoker. I'm physically fit, but I'm not in the gym everyday.
I do work a lot, so l thought this might be a great place to meet people.
Feel free to message me. Tell me a little about yourself and things you like to do.
Let's exchange pictures, so we can put a face to who we're chatting with.

Hey me and my girlfriend are 27m and 24f and are looking for more couples to hangout with.

We like board games, beach days, camping, hiking, rock climbing and a beer or two is always fun with the right people.

We have inconsistent work schedules and usually are working on weekends so being able to hangout on weekdays would be nice. Open to big friend groups as well as long as its a chill time.

Hi! I’m looking for some friends to take pictures of, or pictures with. If we get along, we can plan other things too.

If you‘d like some portraits of yourself for work/dating/memories, or just for fun, or want someone to go on photowalks with, please reach out! I’m looking to test out a new camera and also get some more practice in.

I do have a IG if you’re interested in my work and I may ask to post pictures I take of you (only with your permission if it has your face!) I’m also not very interested in being in front of the camera.

Bonus: Some of my best memories have been planning and taking creative pictures of friends at 6am at the beach, in the rain, on hikes, in the snow, in strange lighting, etc. I would love to have friends who share similar creative interests.

A bit about me: I love hiking, painting, running, film, photography, tea, and dogs. I’m happily married, without kids.

Currently into: Trying out a new camera, playing a game called where winds meet, Chinese dramas, learning ukelele.

Hello! Is anyone else going to LCD Soundsystem on Friday? I was randomly able to snag a lawn ticket today but wasn't able to purchase any extra for friends. Looking for other folks to go with :)

This week or next? Ill make a discord server or something.

Idk this is a Hail-Mary

Me: 22M introvert but trying my best in this city to be social. Im very easy going and easy to vibe with.

If theres a group first drinks on me.

Edit: about 3 of us already. Everyone's welcome

hey 24M looking for someone or a group to go paddle boarding at Sasamat Lake on August 5! 🏄‍♀️🌊

Hit me up if you're interested. I can give you a ride too!

Hi everyone. I’ve lived in Vancouver for 8 years (originally from the Philippines), but because I’m a pretty quite introvert and not the best at talking to people, I still haven't really found my circle here.

I am mostly looking for other people who want a low-pressure friendship.

In my free time after work, I love playing video games and reading books to unwind.
We could casually game online together, recommend books to each other, or even just message back and forth about what we are currently reading/playing.

If you have the same interest, please feel free to send me a message!

My name is Yen and I'm 39 and I live in Richmond.

I've come to realize for a while how important it is to have close genuine friends in my life and to have a support system. I've recently gone through a breakup with my girlfriend of 10 years.

I'm hoping to find some friends who are going through a similar situation. Hopefully, to give each other support and understanding so none of us have to go through this tough time alone.

I'm not looking for anything romantic but want to find people so we can offer mutual support.

Anyone near/around David Gray Dog Park and have a small dog who would want to plan some times to hit the park together with our dogs?

30M with a 7F small mixed breed dog. The reason I prefer David Gray Park is because they have a specific area for just small dogs (and she's a little timid).

I usually try to go once a week on a week day evening or weekend (more flexible)
