looking for new friends !

hiya i recently moved to ireland to live with my family and hopefully start college soon but i don't have much friends here besides ones that are close to my family so I've joined this sub!

a little bit about myself:

I'm 21F currently based in drogheda but I'm hoping to travel to other cities soon and do all that touristy stuff before the year ends.

i like films (horror, disaster & foreign films like kmovies/kdramas etc) as well as 'sports' (mainly F1, a bit of football) music (hyperpop, rnb, indie, kpop, alt hiphop, garage n so on as well as fashion and all that stuff 👍 I'd throw gaming in there as well though im more of a let's play watcher than anything lol i occasionally play stardew valley & minecraft and fnaf sometimes but that's it

hoping to meet some girlies with like-minded interests 🫶 thank u!

Looking for Golf Buddies in Dublin?

As an international person who’s been in Ireland for some years now, I get how tricky it can be to meet new people. Golf was a passion I found in Ireland a couple of years ago and has helped me keep grounded and meet others. But finding people to play with is no small task. Also, it can be a hassle and expensive to go to a golf course by yourself, if you have no car or simply need to rent one or take a taxi.

With that in mind, I created last week Golf Buddy Dublin subreddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/GolfBuddyDublin/), which is all about bringing golf lovers together, setting up easy-going rounds, and having a bit of craic along the way.

If you’re missing a partner for a round or just want to connect with folks who love the game, feel free to post when and where you’re keen to play.

Mental health Coffee Chat

Hey guys,

A fee days ago I posted about a possibility of mental health coffee chats and I finally finished the negotiation and was able to get a space.

There were a few people interested in showing up so I’m posting again.

Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to negotiate free coffee and tea so we could enjoy together, but there is a coffee shop and a bar on premises, so everyone can have their coffee, tea or pint while we enjoy our chat for a couple of hours.

Here’s is the event I created for it https://www.meetup.com/mental-health-coffee-chats/events/304276291/

Please, if you’re interested in coming, go to the link and register yourself so we can have an idea on numbers. Anyone is more than welcome to show up.

Hope to see yous there!

Mental health coffee chats

Hi guys,

I’m planning to host well-being coffee chats through the month of November in the Dublin city center, why November? November is the month for Prostate Cancer and men’s mental health awareness. I have struggled in the past with mental health and I know how much we need to speak out all our issues and this is what the coffee chats are going to be about, meet new people, chat and have a good craic.

Is it something some of yous would be interested?

EDIT: After some negotiation, I was able to book the space and I have created a meetup event. If you’re planning to attend, please use the link so we can have an idea about numbers. The room was booked but unfortunately I was unable to negotiate the coffee and tea available for free, but there is a coffee shop and a bar on premises, so everyone is welcome to grab their drinks and join us. Here’s the link https://www.meetup.com/mental-health-coffee-chats/events/304276291/

22 yo Aussie brother in Dublin

Hey all!

My 22 yo brother recently moved from Aus to Ireland with a promised house and job through a sporting club.

The house has unfortunately fallen through and he’s struggling to meet new people. He is feeling a little isolated as he’s a social butterfly. He’s super fun, kind and sporty and he’ll kill me if he sees me posting for him, but I’m worried from the other side of the world.

Let me know if you know of any running clubs, work, other ways for a young guy to settle into a new city.

He’s currently in Dublin 2 I believe.

Play/Make music

Hi Guys, I'm a 27M and I've been playing guitar for a few years on my own! I'd love to play with other people but I don't know a lot of people who play! Anyone here want a jam buddy? If there's any singers that would be cool!

26F looking for friends in Dublin

Hi everyone, I moved to Ireland a year ago and I still don’t have many friends here. Most of my friends left after graduation and now I work from home so I usually don’t get the chance to meet new people.

I would like to have a friend to go out and try new things with. I like traveling, painting, going to the cinema, thrifting and gaming. But I’m up for anything that makes me leave my house. Send me a message if you’re interested!

24F, looking for friends to just chill and hangout or invite me to some house parties 🤍🎀

24F trying to expand my circle beyond the same 5 people I’ve been vibing with forever!!!! all my friends are older than me and i would really like to hangout people of my age or similar!! looking for some new faces to chill with – whether that’s grabbing coffee, exploring new spots around the city, or just yapping about life for hours. I’m always down for spontaneous road trips, casual hangouts, or even playing a solid game of chess (because why not?). alsooo wouldn’t say no to a house party invite 👀 I’ll bring the snacks and probably too many stories. Let’s make some new memories and DONT BE A CREEP IN MY DMS thanks and regards edit : DUBLIN city sorry about that

Looking for a English language college

I'm a 30-year-old man planning to spend 12 months in Ireland next year to attend a language school or academy. Ireland has always fascinated me with its beauty, and since there are some companies there that align with my studies, I might apply for internships in the future.

I’m looking for recommendations on cheap colleges to apply to and cities to stay in during my study. While I’ve done some research, I thought it would be helpful to ask for suggestions. I’m pretty sure Dublin is not an option, as I want to avoid overly touristy areas and prefer somewhere less crowded. Since I’m from south Africa, I know I’d likely end up socializing with a lot of tourists, which would limit my chances to practice English.

I’m really into nature and Irish mythology, so if you know of any cities that are rich in those aspects, I’d love to hear about them!

South east social group

Hello!

I'm noticing a trend of people around 30 feeling lonely and it can be really difficult to make friends at this age. With moving back home after college and friends being spread all over the country, so many people are moving abroad, and others are so busy with havings kids, many of us don't have the social circle we used to have.

I thought it would be nice to organise something, maybe once month, like cinema trip, walk and coffee, go karting, bowling, dinner etc. I'm not too fussed about the activities we can see what anyone interested in joing would like to do.

I'm 31F and based in County Wexford but it can be all over the South East. I was generally thinking people aged 25-40 so in similar stages of life but anyone is welcome really! Was hoping we might have a group of 10-20 people so even if everyone didn't come to every activity we would still have a group!

Anyone interested?

Any person trying to get into horse riding lessons?

I’m trying to pick up a new hobby as an 28M adult because I’m a sad boring cunt but getting lessons is hard. Maybe if few of us go it will be more economical for the horse people to set aside an hour or two. Horses are great animals and riding is both fun and healthy! I’m talking about the Limerick area mostly.

33F looking for similarly tired but hopeful pals in Dublin 😂

Hey! 33F, moved to Dublin after spending years down the country. Would love to meet some new pals in Dublin, just miss the chats and the walks, meeting people, few vinos, dancing (although I probably wouldn't dream of going clubbing anymore), also like hiking and bikerowski (although I'm not very motivated to go). Problem is I'm more often tired by the thought of making a plan, I wfh a lot so meet absolutely nobody and am in a relationship so putting myself out there is not even in the vocabulary anymore 😅😂 if anyone feels similar say hello and maybe it could be the start of a beautiful friendship! I'm great craic I swear. 🤞🫣😂
