looking for text buddies while i clean 22f

im not gonna lie to u my space is on the verge of hoarder level like its bad this time (in part due to health issues and mental health issues). its mostly just like a poor organizational skills thing. but regardless of the cause im going to be working on it and id love to have some people to message with on discord while i get through it. so obvs not immediate replies but looking for people who can hold steady back and forth?

i dont consider common interests to be like the main thing. i'm really happy to just yap about whatever and listen about whatever, however "boring" it may be. i can still remember talking with someone online like 10 years ago about the weather and sending snow pics back and forth during the wintertime. i miss that kinda stuff.

obviously looking for platonic chats/friendship only

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, feel free to reach out via chat, comment, or message. Wishing you a lovely day or night ahead!

22m- After a long weekend on the wards this worker is free

Hey nice to meet you and thanks for clicking, I'm Sou! If you didn't guess from the title I work on a psychiatric ward and would love to share some of the funny or spooky scary stories I have with you sometime, well that and hear about you too!

To start a bit about me: I'm a Psychiatric aide at a mental health facility and plan to go for my nursing somewhat soon. I also have a giant cat and a tiny baby kitten if you would like to see them. I have a lot of random interests so I tend to ramble a lot about them so fair warning about me trailing off about whatever I'm into at the moment.

My hobbies mainly include reading, watching horror related media whether thats movies, podcasts, novels, so if you have any reccomendations let me know! I also love music, I'm huge into alternative or metal genres like Boston Manor, Lorna Shore, Error 37 and bayside. I play a fair amount of games, normally a lot of soulslikes and competitive shooters but recently got into space marine 2 and been playing remnant 2 a lot as well. I also have an index for vr so if you do to that would be cool!

If any of this sounds interesting to you feel free to shoot me off a message, can't wait to hear from you and have a great day!

There are also pics of me on my profile if you need to see I'm a real person.

21 M Just looking for some good and honest penpals/friends

I’ll try to be brief in typing this but to preface all of this. I’m not looking for any ‘content creators’ or some of the kinda degenerate guys you’ll find anywhere on the internet.

I’m looking for just genuine people who are also looking for friends on here. I wasn’t planning on posting on here since I feel it would be buried but after trying to speak with a few people and being advertised to about something nsfw, or being asked very inappropriate questions by random strangers. I thought I may as well give it a chance and see if anyone bites!

I mainly want to make friends online to learn things, it could be other cultures, languages or especially skills! Ranging from coding to crochet! I am interested in just knowing more about the unknown! When I was younger I would find people from all over the world playing games and so on, but I’ve grown out of that but I still feel that part missing. I have friends irl of course, but we all agree on the same topics, do the same things, etc!

A little about me, I love the outdoors (I’ll have so many pictures to show you), I am from the UK (so expect an accent), I enjoy exercising alongside my general outdoor hobbies, and I really love to read about history (wow, I know. You’ll hear me ramble on without end).

I am open to making friends with anyone! Regardless of your opinions or beliefs! I’m fine with honestly anyone, I like to keep an open mind!

If anything about my post interests you, or if you just want to speak with another genuine person and not another shallow vessel. Get in contact or reach out! Don’t worry, I won’t ghost you unlike the other 80%.

Commenting on my post or just shooting me a DM will get my attention! I can’t wait to hear from you!

27M - in need of a distraction

Maybe it's the season, the cold or maybe just SAD but everything seems so depressing right now. Not the best way to start off my year, perhaps help me change that?

About me:

Work as a software developer, mostly from home but occasionally make my way to the office if I feel like being productive

I've been into cooking lately, mostly spicy dishes

Trying to work out a lot more to lose the few kilos I gained over the holiday season

Probably have binged every good show in netflix, prove me wrong. My taste in music is all over the place ranging from Metallica to Avril Lavigne and everything in between

If you feel like some of this seems interesting to you you can shoot me a message. I'm also open to discuss anything else really, not like I have anything smarter to do

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.

27F - Looking for some cool female friendships!

As the title states I am on the look-out for some more cool female friendships, no matter the location, though it's easier with a similar time zone (GMT+1). I really feel there's something uniquely special about online friendships, and that in some way you can connect and get to know each other on a deeper level. There are fewer barriers in a way. I have had quite a few special online friendships through my teens and until now, and I still have some today (I even met one on this subreddit). However, I would love to make some more female friends – and thought this could be a perfect place to find someone fun!

Who am I? I am a cheerful, curious, introverted, and at times funny woman from Europe. Even though I am quite introverted (and a homebody), I love to get to know people and connect. As for my interest, I love to read (soft spot for both history and classics), cook (I always make a mess in the kitchen), paint (watercolors), and write (generally stories or poems of questionable quality). Besides that, I love going for walks (not hikes!), listening to music, and caring for my plants (they haven’t died so far).

Who should you be? I am preferably looking for some gal friends who resonate somewhat with what I have written above. You don’t have to share all (or any) of my interests, time zone, age, or whatever. I don’t think you can put limits on friendships, and I believe connection can be made over any kind of divide. So, if anything in this post speaks to you, reach out!  

 

PSA: I made this post right before to go to bed, so my answer time risks being long – doesn’t mean I won’t answer!

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.

24M New York #Online - Let Our Search Be Over

Don’t care about gender or age if we’re just friends but I’ll include information about myself below.

I live in New York but I’m open to anyone anywhere. (Being closer would make it easier to grab lunch sometime though).

If you care about physical aspects I’m open to exchanging pictures or video calling (don’t be nervous, I’m real easy to talk to). Basics include: Asian, Black Curly Hair, Olive skinned and an Athletic Build. Nice smile too, if you’ll take my godfather’s word for it.

I like Jazz, Museums, Slow talks, slower walks. Love getting out there on hikes, travelling, being spontaneous. I love a running gag and committing to the bit. I like to think a lot, joke a lot, read and create art. I love staying in too, huge movie buff. Im largely apolitical. I don’t drink or smoke or do drugs or party (but I swear on everything I’m still very fun lol).

I’m huge with hobbies: Working on cars, learning instruments and languages, gaming, etc. I’ve been meaning to get into crystal and gemstone excavating/fossil hunting and star charting as well. Oh and I need a partner to learn the Waltz with just in case we get invited to a ball or Gala.

If any of this resonates with you at all and you’re open to seeing if we click just send me a message.

I’m really looking forward to hearing from you so we can finally get off of this purgatory of a sub Reddit!

My very best.

P.S - Don’t hesitate if you’re an old soul; I feel like I get along with those well.

P.P.S - Do you know what a pangolin is?

25 M looking for a long term Friendship. I love travelling, cooking and camping. One of my dreams is to camp in a beautiful mountain filled with trees 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 :)

M30s New England - Adventurous Soul Seeking a [Chat] Buddy or more

Hey there!

I’m a scientist in biomedical research, living in the woods with my two playful puppies 🐶🐶. Outside the lab, I love stargazing (Orion is my favorite!) and enjoying sci-fi movies. Rock music is my jam, and I get great satisfaction from woodworking projects—like the fence I built for my pups and my next idea for a cozy firewood oven. I embrace a laid-back, 420-friendly lifestyle and lean a bit to the left.

I’d love to chat and see if we vibe! Whether you’re into science, the outdoors, or sharing stories under the stars, I’m excited to hear from you!

Let’s connect! ✨
