42M bummer question

Is this something that happens to people in their 40s? Y’all ever just get bummed out and can’t figure out why? I go to the gym 4 times a week even when I feel good for “therapy”. I have a decent job (stress free) and don’t really need anything so I don’t know what the deal is. An ok marriage with a wife that treats me better than I deserve. Is this what a midlife crisis is like?

Seeking Meaningful, Deep Conversations

I’m looking to connect with people who have a passion for deep, engaging conversations. As a conservative Christian, I have a genuine interest in exploring diverse perspectives and complex ideas. I enjoy diving into topics like politics, history, geography, and philosophy, and I believe that hearing different experiences and viewpoints can really broaden our understanding.

If you're someone who values going beyond surface-level chats—whether to challenge ideas, share your thoughts, or simply enjoy a meaningful exchange—I’d love to connect. Let’s start some great conversations!

Moved to a New State

Moved from NYC -> NJ, I don’t know how to go about starting over and making new friends

I had a gym, a run club, I had my network. Now I’ve got the gym in the garage, I’m running by myself, but everything is happening in isolation.

Winter is coming and I don’t want to be hung up in the house, I can go to bars, but I don’t drink, that makes people comfortable.

How do I go about making myself more accessible?

Any night owls here?

Good day everyone. I turned 40 at the beginning of the year and it feels so crazy to me. I’m definitely not able to process being 40. It’s hard to explain. Anyway, life has been one hell of a ride but I got divorced 4 years ago and now I’m a single mom with no friends and nobody to talk to. I have sleep issues so I tend to be up at crazy hours. I would love to meet people my age who share similar interests to just chat about movies/tv shows/books/music/whatever. I also like to chat about politics and religion. I’m a secular humanist and a socialist. I live in South Florida, a bit north of Miami. I’m a former heroin addict, four years sober as of August. I have mental health issues and I struggle even with medication but I promise not to trauma dump. If someone wants to talk about mental health stuff, I’m open to that too. I’m really open to anything. Whatever your interests are, lay them on me.
