20F Looking for friends

Hello there :) I'm looking for common minds out there in Bris who want to play games or talk. I need more people to talk to!!! I have been feeling a bit isolated as of late and would love to make some new friends. It's mainly my fault for procrastinating uni work and then not having time and feeling a bit burnt out at the end of it, lol.

I love Team Fortress 2, Vocaloid, Rhythm games, RPGs, Lots of video games, Lots of music. I'm a little bit of a hoarder of media I love music, movies & games. I'm interested in lots of things its too hard to list them all. I'm also an artist and my ig for that is @ rosetongs ( I need to post more )

shoot me a msg for my ig if you wanna chat :)

32M still looking for friends

Hi all :)

This is my second post in just a few weeks, but I’ve met a few interesting people through this sub, so I thought I might try again. I’ve realised making friends as an adult is so hard, with limited free time and conflicting schedules. So I thought maybe meeting more people is the way to go. I’ve always been the introverted type, who just had like 2-3 close friends and always went out with the same people. But it’s not working for me anymore, it seems.

So, a little about me:

  • 32 M living in the Valley (pretty central location so I don’t mind meeting either Northside or Southside)
  • I’m Italian, and English isn’t my first language so apologies in advance for any mistakes…I’m an Italian teacher though, so I could always teach you 😂
  • I like gaming (pc and switch). In particular love Pokémon, the legend of Zelda and mmorpgs like WoW
  • Other hobbies include anime and manga. Currently reading Death Note again. Really into shonen. My all-time favourites are Naruto and FMA. Been thinking of catching up with One Piece too 😬
  • I like all things fantasy, be it books or movies. My favourites are Lotr, Harry Potter, Eragon and Percy Jackson. I also love the MCU 😊
  • When going out I like to go watch a movie or to the arcade (not too often though, because they can become expensive activities 😅). Other than that, I don’t mind meeting for a coffee, going for a walk in the park or visiting the library/museum.

Looking forward to chatting, my DMs are always open :)

What to do in the week in Brisbane, Sunshine Coast or Gold Coast?

I’ve been wanting to fill up my time with more options on what to do during the week when I have a butt day (nothing day).

I have a car and I’m willing to travel, but would prefer to keep the activities relatively free (Like a max of $30 per event).

If you have any ideas please include the:

  1. Name of the event or activity
  2. What time and day of the week it usually happens or is best to go on?
  3. And the price.

35 M Gymming/Hiking/Running mates

Hi Brisbane people,

35 and looking for new friends who enjoy keeping fit and/or being outdoors. Hiking, evening jogs, or a gym buddy to help push through those last few reps (I go to Jetts in Ashgrove). Used to play rugby years back, so wouldn't mind getting back into it if you know of any groups. I've also recently discovered pickleball and enjoy badmington if you play.

Easy to talk to (as long as the running pace isn't crazy!). If you would like a friend that loves cracking jokes, need a gym pal to encourage you or a hiking buddy to visit some cool views together, come say hi 😁

28M - Aspartame Addict - Business Owner - Way too chatty.

Hey Team!

(Have posted before, but trying again)

I’m a guy in the Western Suburbs (think Ipswich area) looking to connect with like-minded Brisbane folks who are up for the long haul on the friendship front. I love a bit of banter, enjoy chatting heaps, and am on a bit of a mission to make connections that go deeper than “How ‘bout that weather?”

Loosely, about me: I run a construction chemicals business and somehow ended up with Young Entrepreneur awards in the manufacturing and distribution categories this year... Unexpected!

I’m all about embracing new experiences, whether that’s through video games, spontaneous camping trips, long drives, or discovering the city’s food spots. If you enjoy these things and don't mind a few drinks, we’ll get along just fine!

I’m down for chats about life, business, or anything really—and if you’re up for being open and judgement-free, let’s talk! Oh, and if you’re within a 50-minute drive from the Western Suburbs, I’m happy to do the driving too.

Preferably you should be around 25-40 - Open minded, easy going, looking for long term connections and keen on chatting both online and offline regularly. Hope to connect soon. Feel free to shoot me a DM.

- Dog Lover
- Business Addict
- Consumes way too much Aspartame
- Self-Confidence Missing
- While I'm gay, I'm not really interested in the alphabet mafia.

I am starving for intellectual conversation with someone who's self awareness isn't DOA.

Me 37f. I'm married. Albeit not that happily but, I'm not interested in blowing up my life for a quick fling, that's not what this is. I genuinely just want to make connections with other deep thinkers and have someone to talk to that is as curious about human nature as I am.

I'm not all that interested in small talk although frustratingly it is a good place to start. But really I love the nitty-grittyness of how we as humans think and just want to dive right into that with other people. Cards on the table in in a weird place and just want to try and unpack the world and try and make some sense of it.

I don't really discriminate unless you come hot out of the gate punching down on others. I say what's on my mind and so I understand we don't always articulate ourselves well because neither do it at times. Because of that I will over look the dumb things you say if your intentions are good. I will judge you on your deeds. I have a wicked sense of humour and love to laugh at myself as much as I do the idiosyncratic things we all do. I'm not focused on what we don't agree on and would rather try and find out common ground first and explore our differences in opinion from there.

Hit me up, what's on your mind? Seen anything funny lately?

Running club - Southside 🏃‍♀️

Hi guys,

Can anyone recommend a running club near Archerfield or surrounding suburbs e.g. Sunnybank, oxley, Salisbury? I’m new to this area and it seems like all of the running clubs I’m interested in meet on the Northside or south Brisbane which is a long way from where I live. I’m looking to meet new people in my area and also help motivate myself to run.

Cheers!

looking for friends :)

23F living here for nearly a year now, but so far haven’t made many friends or got out much. Definitely my fault as I work a lot of nights and can be quite shy but I am working on this and am always open to talking to new people :) I enjoy going for walks and exploring new places (mostly because it is all new), very interested in all things science and medical, Lego, music and puzzles. I am a bit of a nerd for mushrooms and mycology but have hardly seen any since moving over- if anyone knows any good spots I would love to know! Big lover of gin, would also quite like to get into tennis but so far nerves have got in the way of this :)

I am a 21 year old male who lives in the Ipswich area and am looking for friends. I’ve recently got back into Minecraft big time but some other stuff I enjoy is anything Nintendo and some of PlayStation’s first party titles.

Anyone want to play Minecraft and game?

Anyone going to Red Clay Strays?

Hey, I'm 19M and was so excited when they released new tickets. However, I realized I don't know anyone who listens to them 😭. I don't want to go alone so if anyone is going, or was thinking about it, let me know. It's on the 17th of May, 2025.
