36M Looking for a Real Bro to Build a Solid Brotherhood

Hey, I’m a 36-year-old guy in the PNW, and I’m on the lookout for a genuine bro to connect with. I’m not talking about just hanging out here and there—I’m looking for that real brotherhood vibe. The kind where you’ve got each other’s backs no matter what, share laughs, celebrate wins, and can talk about anything, even the deep or awkward stuff, without judgment.

About me: I’m into road trips, camping, hiking, gaming (PS5, Switch, Xbox Series X), and I enjoy learning new things. I’m laid-back, straight-up honest, and value loyalty and openness in a friendship. I also don’t mind kicking back and enjoying some good weed—sometimes those high convos are the best for real talk.

If you’re the kind of guy who’s about loyalty, respect, and just keeping it real, let’s connect. Brotherhood is rare, but I know it’s out there. Shoot me a message if you’re interested in building that kind of bond.

27 M - A journey to lasting friendships

Greetings to the wonderful members of this subreddit! I’m a European chap in search of amazing people to befriend. I often find solace and joy in nature, spending much of my time hiking, exploring national parks, visiting museums and castles, and enjoying leisurely walks that lead to engaging conversations.

I have a passion for traditional music from various countries, particularly Celtic and Irish, along with country, blues, jazz, and more. If you'd like to get a sense of my musical taste, feel free to ask for my Spotify playlists.

I also enjoy reading books about the Troubles in Northern Ireland, Anglo-Saxon England, and linguistics, especially applied linguistics.

In recent years, my interests have broadened to include history, music, geopolitics, and agriculture. Although my full-time profession doesn't fully align with my academic background in history and linguistics (though I’m working on bridging that gap), it keeps me engaged and content.

If this introduction piques your interest or if ya lot could use a friend, feel free to reach out via chat, comment, or message. Wishing you a lovely day or night ahead!

[19F] Looking for a Long-Term Gaming Buddy

Hey! I’m a 19-year-old girl from Germany, and I’m looking for a long-term gaming buddy, someone to chill with, play games, and just vibe. I’m really into horror movies and working out too, so if you’re into that, even better!

I’d love to connect with other girls, but honestly, if you’re friendly and enjoy gaming, I’m open to chatting with anyone. It’d be great to find someone who’s in it for the long haul, not just a one-time chat!

If this sounds like your thing, pls don’t be shy to dm! 😊

26F Lost all my friends because I focused on one person, and then lost that person as well

I've had a super hard time making friends my whole life, and I'm currently in the process of trying to figure out why everything has been going so badly for me. I'm depressed and in therapy and really really trying.

A little bit about me: I'm working a boring office job, but write and paint on the side. I'm super into books and spend most of my time reading.

I had friends at one point during uni a whole group of 10 and I loved them more then anything (I'm not close with my family and they were it for me) one by one they paired off or grew apart or had fights until it was only me and this girl. After we graduated we were incredibly close, talked every day did everything together. She had other friends but would never invite me to hang out with them. And then she got a boyfriend and fully ghosted me. Four years of friendship evaporated in a matter of weeks. Its been 8 months now and I'm all by myself all of the time, I work from home so i only leave my house to go to therapy. Its pretty bad.

I realise that I don't sound like I'm super fun to talk to rn, but i promise I'll give it my best go If you would like to chat.

21F I just experienced an assassination attempt on me!

So things were going pretty normal for me in the morning, picked out my outfit, grabbed one of my favorite bras(This part is important) brushed my hair, showered and then after drying my hair I went to get dressed. That's when the attack happened, as I put the bra own I felt a stabbing pain on the left side of my chest and I realized the underwire of my bra had come out. I can't believe that a bra I trusted so dearly and that has supported me countless times in the past during both good and bad times has betrayed me so. It's with a heavy heart that I need to say good bye to my old friend.

For real though I'm studying today but I need other stuff to do so I don't lose my mind. So if anyone feels like talking to someone who was once described as "Very pretty so why don't you have a boyfriend." by her mother than I am your girl! If that hasn't sold you yet than here's a bit more about me, my name is Sam which of course is short for Samasaurus Rex, I'm a tall girl at 6'1 and I enjoy walks, swimming, video games, napping and watching Netflix.

18F let’s be best friends for a long term!

I’ve feeling so alone, I have nobody I can open up too about day or my problems. My anxiety isn’t making it easier either, I just want girl friend or friends that I can talk to you on daily basis. They talk to me about their day I talk to them about mine. We watch movies/anime together even play games on steam (just have gaming pc)

We can share our interests together either with movie or games!! I’m open to see new things or watch them for you, maybe even love it.

19T Why waste time say lot word when few word do trick?

I hope some of you get the reference and don't just think I'm illiterate.

A few things about me:

I like anime. A few of my favorites include: Soul Eater, My Hero, Noragami, Given, No game no life,etc.(genres vary). I like listening to music, eg. alternative, pop, pretty much anything I can sing along to. I like watching a lot of shows on netflix, which include the office, parks and rec, criminal minds, that 70's show, and pretty much anything else that looks good.

25 M looking for a long term Friendship. I love cooking, travelling and camping. One of my dreams is to camp in a beautiful mountain and make pasta there

I'm 25 M looking for a long term friendship. Someone who I can talk to everyday and build a bond, share memes, share our favourite songs, share how our days are going.

I really don't care where you are from or what belief you have, all I want is your friendship and in return I will offer my friendship to you.

I love outdoors, love nature and camping, hiking. I also love riding my motorcycle. As I ride I love how the air touches my face. And just love to appreciate that moment.

I also love cooking and love to make pastas and various meat dishes. Love to experiment and create new recipes. I also make my own blend of spice which really goes well with meats and soups.

Tell me about yourself :)

48 M, In search of Banter !!!

A few friends and I have a Casual Banter Chat, but recently it's died down a lil , so we're looking to bolster the ranks.

Typically the chats fairly broad minded, although we most definitely try avoid anything political or boring!

If you're interested drop me a DM for more details, obviously include your A.S.L. and a lil bit about yourself, we don't want any weirdos 🍍🤣.

33/M Europe looking to meet some new people.

Hey guys, thanks for checking out my post!

Finding my social circle a bit small lately and looking to meet some new people from wherever. I’m a pretty typical nerdy person, I work in tech and into movies / tv and gaming, also super passionate about travel and really love the outdoors. Recently got back into reading and I love to cook.

Casual conversations are fine, but hoping it leads to a long term friendship. Happy to talk to pretty much anyone, I love learning about other peoples hobbies and interests and it’s also nice meeting people from other cultures.

Just platonic and ideally in a similar time zone.

Thanks

33M nerdy guy hoping to make a friend

Hi everyone, your typical nerdy, card game playing, computer playing, Nintendo switch playing, binge watching ass nerd. I’m sure I do other stuff that I can’t remember off the top of my head but hoping to make a friend or two, someone to talk throughout the day, hopefully someone closer to my age but would be nice to have someone to las the boredom away and become really good friends.

It’s been a while since I felt I had someone to consistently talk to be best friends, usually work always kept me busy but now that I work at a better job, would be nice to try to make a new best friend or two. Just a nerdy hispanic nerd with college degrees. Not sure what else to say

[25M] Are you the kind of person I am looking for?

I sure hope you are! Hey there, I am Tim, a 25 year old social worker who almost has a year experience right now. I am currently enjoying my Sunday evening by chilling before tomorrow a new workday will arrive.

I would love to make some genuine connections. I know it is a long shot, but I'm sure there are also some genuine nice people out here! I am really open minded and I like to think I am nice company, but you should find out by yourself 😁.

I am looking for someone who is actually genuinely nice. Someone around my age around my place (West)-Europe). Someome who actually wants to make (online) connections and put effort in it (so ghost free). Idc if we have a lot in common or not, as long as we connect we connect.

Well don't be shy and send me a dm! Also, preferably ghost free. I don't want to waste your and my own time to someone who decides not to reply or reply without sincere interest :).

Don't be a stranger 😉

Stay safe!

39M - Let's make some good memories. We can be friends too.

Friendship is a two way street. So I am not looking for one sided conversation. I don’t have so much to offer but asking ‘how are you?’ or ‘how’s your day?’ If you are a person in the crowd then you might not understand that where you have to pay your attention or what are you getting from others. You have nothing to give or nothing to take. So I am offering you a genuine conversation, empathy, sharing music sometimes, throwing meme or recommending movies or books sometimes. I know it’s not much. But it can be so much if you really want to talk whenever you are free, I am a great listener. I am totally non judgmental so you can vent. I believe every kind of relationship are just like a tree! Give it a time, it will grow thro times. A fully grown tree can be our shelter and we can get fruit too! A tired soul can take rest beneath that tree! Give it a shot!

29f need a friend to voice chat with and find names of classical pieces and jazz melodies together maybe some country too

The title says it I'm a radio listener and when it's not on a computer it's not always possible to know that really cool melody playing at that moment because usually when I use the tv as a radio, I go to the terrace for a walk it is my place to take fresh air too. I'm not a musician and I'm sure that there are many people here who know things that I've not heard of so it's gonna be interesting or we can just talk. I'm in Europe in Bulgaria to be more exact and it's raining outside which is the perfect time to fall asleep while listening to it, but when I come back in the morning I'll respond to you. Ciao as the Italians say.
