Hey there, I am male in my 40s. I have Aspergers and currently looking for work. My one of my big interests is music , I liked the decades from 60s,70s,80s,90s to present. I liked so many bands and artists such as Nirvana,ELO, Billy Joel,Elton John,Elvis,The Smiths,Guns N Roses,Queen,REM, Fleetwood Mac,Pixies,Beach boys,The Doors,Beatles,Ac/Dc, Grunge music,pop music,rock music. I go to many gigs to see local bands. I like books, mostly reading true crime stuff.
I like reading and watching stuff about true crime, I am jogger too . I watch Netflix an odd time.And like memes, I don’t play video games.But can talk about anything. Send a pm or chat if you would like to talk!.
Hey there! I’m a 29-year-old guy who's spent way too much time talking to my houseplants (they’re terrible conversationalists, by the way). I’m looking to make some new friends and escape the depths of loneliness. Whether it’s chatting about random stuff, sharing music, or just laughing at silly memes, I’m here for it.
If you're looking for a down-to-earth, easy-going friend who’s always up for a good laugh (and doesn’t mind a little sarcasm), feel free to say hi! Bonus points if you can teach me how to be less awkward in social situations. Looking forward to chatting with some cool people—especially those with a sense of humor!
Feel free to message me if you’re interested! :)
Hi! Im a student and these days it's been a bit tough for me. I feel lonely all of a sudden and I dont even know why. I think working on myself all this time has left me without friends as I doht maintain my social life very much.
I want someone who has a lot to talk so that I can just listen and smile. Just text me, no need for asking in the chat.
hi! i'm a silly and unhinged uni girl who's into going out, shopping, music, videogames, meeting new people, exploring new places, and cute girly things!
i'm looking for someone who can be sensible, someone i can count on, but also someone i can talk about random chaotic shit with lol
hopefully we become good friends!! i'm into something more long-term and hopefully even in the future and life gets busier, we will still be good friends and check up on each other :>
I’m a Korean woman in early 30s, as you see, and I’m living in Korea. I used to live in Germany for a few years by the time of the onset of pandemic, so I can’t believe it’s already the end of 2024. At first I was planning to go out and explore the world again as soon as the situation around covid gets better, but yeah here we are :) But really, I like the life in Korea.
Anyway, I like trips, books, music and Netflix series like most other people. In my free time I try to learn Turkish. It will be great to meet someone with whom I can talk in Turkish or French here, but English is great. I welcome all nationalities :)
I want to talk with someone around my age (25-35). I don’t feel comfortable around married people because I don’t find a common topic so yeah I want to talk with someone in the similar life stage with me. I’d love to connect with someone who’s keen on exploring the world and trying new things in life, instead of staying in the same place and job for the whole life.
Hit me up on Reddit Chat with a short intro. I don’t answer to “Hi” or empty profiles. See you soon!
Hey there! I'm a 22-year-old guy living in NYC. I'm looking to connect with people who enjoy sports like soccer, badminton, and cricket. I'm also a big fan of The Simpsons. I'm open to meeting new people from all walks of life, but I'm particularly interested in connecting with the Muslim community. Let's chat, play sports, or just hang out!
Hello, I am 27 years old and I live in Europe.
I am looking for long term friendships where I can have meaningful and sincere conversations. I am a respectful person, I do not judge anyone. Nothing matters as long as we are respectful to each other.
It is very hard to make real friends here. Not everyone here always has time to talk and make friends. I want to meet people here who have time to talk as much as possible.
I don't have many hobbies. I like hiking, listening to music, watching movies/series, watching travel videos, cooking. I don't use Discord.
Thank you for reading.
They tell you to keep your friends close in high school but i should’ve listened to that more😭 Never knew how hard it would be out here. Making friends its just such a hard and weird thing to do like cant just walk up to someone and be like “wanna be friends”. Ive tried these posts and discord groups where i try to make friends but it never really works. Im still here bed rotting and playing games by myself. But if anyone wants to join me lol feel free. I play games on pc (valorant, ow, league and IM honestly down to try any new game tbh). Im pretty weird but i guess that only shows after i get comfortable around ppl. And i love to give advice and just listen to ppl. Dms are open 🦦 (only platonic, and not too much older than me pls. And would love some girl friends!! Both are okay jus keep platonic)
Hi reddit! I’ve been going through a hard time, there’s a lot going on in my life right now and the holidays are hard for me. I’d be nice to have a friend to talk to about anything! I’d like to take my mind off of everything and just have a fun conversation:)
I haven't used Reddit on this account in a while, but I came back just to post this because I really wanna make friends (open to all genders) and admittedly I have no idea how to (can you tell I'm shy? :P), so this is a shot in the dark for me.
Below are some of my interests/hobbies, in no particular order:
Please feel free to message me if we share similar interests (or even if you want to talk about life in general)! :) Thanks for reading this post.
Hey,
My hobbies are gaming/reading/writing - I also like going for walks, but due to high anxiety I don't do that so often. I have 2 cats, which are my world 😺
Genuine friendships is something hard to come by, and honestly, just having someone to talk to on a daily basis, would be lovely.
I might be awkward, and struggle communicating effectively, but I do my best.
Nice to meet you!
Hi guys! It’s been a tough year with a lot of back stabbing and loss of friends. Wanting to make new friends and get back to socialising.
Hey I just finished all my classes for today and I have nothing else to to do and it still 11am so anyone wanna chat hit me up
Just need someone to listen to
I'm looking for someone who prefers to stay anonymous and keep things purely online. We can share information about ourselves, but only as much as we're comfortable with. I’ve had online friendships in the past that didn’t work out because emotions got too involved. This time, I just want someone to talk to, someone I can share random thoughts with, without the relationship going deeper than online—I've never had luck with those.
About me: I'm the back-of-the-class type introvert. I enjoy watching movies, dramas, anime, and reading manga/manhwa/manhua. I enjoy sports such as volleyball, badminton, cycling. I’m more of a listener, but once I’m comfortable, I can vent a lot. I enjoy conversations the most, so any topic works—except politics or anything too intellectual.
Please introduce yourself a little so we can have an actual conversation. I probably won’t reply to messages that just say “Hi” or “How are you?” I’d also prefer to talk to someone around my age—it’s hard to connect with a different generation unless you’re willing to adjust.
Nearly 40 years old, man from England (UK). Well educated (two degrees) learned professional (currently recovering from serious long term illness) at a crossroads in life. Very polite, kind and honourable. Well travelled. Interested in history, video games, tv and film, books, travel and the supernatural. 5,'11, 61kgs. Shaved head. I'm quite shy and I have always considered myself something of an outsider. If you think we might get along....you know what to do. No tobacco smokers, no racists, no snobs, no Nazis, no rude people, no jocks, no super MAGA people (moderate MAGA is ok). Any races, genders, preferences are welcome. Christians/religious folk most welcome to message.
As the title announces. I need some friends, I'm autistic, so don't expect me to speak like a normal person. My greatest Regards :))))
I am looking for a new girl best friend.. someone I can talk through the day someone energetic, talkative, optimistic, uplifting..
Hey everyone!
I'm 28f, based in London, UK and am estranged from family for a number of reasons. I sometimes find Christmas difficult and imagine that I am not alone in that. I will be spending the day solo and thought to try something, so I have booked a table for four in Fitzrovia for lunch on Christmas Day and wanted to know if anyone here who's also based in London and would otherwise be alone on the day would like to join me, to celebrate? The set menu is priced at £60 but depending on your circumstances, I am happy to discuss partial cover for the bill.
I'd love to make someone's day a bit brighter by sharing good food and good company. We can chat, laugh or cry and make it a low-pressure, supportive space to enjoy the holiday.
I'm a trauma recovery coach in training, focused on narcissistic abuse and family systems.
I'm also looking to arrange some Zoom meets and a WhatsApp group in the new year for anybody who wants to confide and would like to make new friendships or 'found family' with those who can empathise.
For safety reasons, I’ll need to ask for a few details from you (and I’ll happily provide mine too). If you’re interested, drop me a message, and we can figure out the details. Thanks!
I'm not interested on love my feelings are dead now but I like to make some good vibes and talk to deep and relief my stress 😬
Hi, I am looking to have a friend we can connect. I like reading, my favorite genre is science fiction/fantasy. I like to listen rock/metal music. I like to watch movies. I like to play video games, mostly JRPGs and 80s 90s retro games. I want a long term friend, which we can be comfortable with each other and provide a safe space. World is sometimes a harsh place, if you want a kind friend who will listen to all your troubles and be there for you, just pm me :)
I'd prefer if you were from the same timezone (AEST), but it's ok if you're not. Please don't DM me if you're a lot older than me (a grown-ass adult). Anyways, my hobbies are highly varied so chances are we'll have a lot in common

Hello there 😌
I just moved into my first apartment by myself about a year ago to a new area on the East Coast US and would love some people to talk to during this new chapter of my life!
A little about me, I'm a night owl (I literally work overnights lol) I compose and mix music, I am personally a big fan of metal and cinematic music, but I also like Folk ans Synthwave too! I am a digital concept artist, mainly working with Sci-Fi and Fantasy themes. I enjoy playing games on PC like Warframe, Space Marines 2, Helldivers 2, Stellaris and the Horizon Series. I love Dune, Star Wars and Sci-Fi in general! I enjoy watching/listening to podcasts and Twitch livestreams, too. I also have a fascination with mythology, ancient history, and the sciences.
If you have some common interests, message me with your age and a little about you. I look forward to talking with you 🤗
