We're shut down right now in protest of Reddit's announced API changes, which will make moderation nearly impossible and kill 3rd party apps.
For a great explanation of what's going on, see r/techsupport's wiki: https://rtech.support/docs/meta/blackout.html
This is a place to find new texting friends. Text app/pic share app users are also welcome.
Kinds of information you are strongly encouraged to include in your post:
It's also not a bad idea to include any of the following:
The only rule is that you cannot include any contact/identifying information in your post. This is part of reddit's site-wide rules. Read more HERE, HERE, and HERE.
The other rule is that you cannot spam the sub. This will be defined in 2 ways:
Spam spam, the kind many have been used to for years - what is posted by bots, catfish, or enterprisers and often leads off-site for the purpose of doxing, scamming, harassing, advertising, selling, generating views/ad traffic, etc.
Posting too often. When this happens, a user generates too much attention to themselves without adding any value to the community, and they reduce the visibility of the posts of others. Henceforth, all users can post only once every 24 hours AND only if their last post is no longer on "hot" or "new."

Hi, I'm looking for friends to spend some time with and hopefully, for long-term. This post may seem short but believe me, once we got to know each other, we could definitely be talking a lot! And to give you an idea on my likes, here are some of them: I like volleyball, political stuff, appreciating architecture, a little bit of fashion, and I do a bit of gaming (Elden Ring fan here 🖐🏻). And I'm just as interested into getting to know you 😄. Just to add as well, I'm also from the Philippines and I do have a bf.
Anyway, just hmu if you're interested!
Hey, I’m Sonya, 23 years old. I recently moved to Canada, and while I have my aunt here, I’d really love to make a friend to share my thoughts and emotions with—my ups and downs. I work as a bartender and am studying in college because I want to become a psychologist. With everything going on, I often feel lonely and wish I had more communication in my life.
In my free time, I enjoy hiking, playing sports, and gaming on my console. I also love cooking and find joy in reading and watching movies. If you’d like to get to know me better and share some experiences, feel free to reach out! I’m looking forward to connecting with someone who understands the excitement and challenges of life.
just looking for a friendly chat through out the day/night
Here's a little about me:
-Introverted
-I love gaming, I've been doing it all of my life. (mainly play wow right now)
-love anything to do with cinema...movies/tv/anime
-I love writing and reading, I enjoy writing prompts and roleplaying (mostly zombie or fantasy related).
-I've traveled all over the US, but haven't made it to any other countries yet, but plan to. I love the idea of traveling and seeing historic sights and museums.
-I like to research random shit/useless facts/trivia. I'm a huge history nerd.
-I like debating. Not in a hostile way or anything, but I love finding out other peoples view points on things and discussing it.
Honestly can't think of anything else off the top of my head, but feel free to ask any questions, I'm up for any chats as long as they're fun. I will say that I prefer to message on reddit over anything else
If all of (or at least most of) the following sounds appealing to you, we may be a match made in texting heaven:

I'm learning Spanish (around beginner/intermediate level) and I'd love to chat to some other Spanish speakers. Ideally in the UK or Europe as I've found the time difference speaking to people from Latin American countries can make it more difficult to chat.
Even better if you live in or near Newcastle upon Tyne as that is where I am!
I also love music, particularly blues and rock, and I have been playing the guitar for about 9 years. I also enjoy reading and gaming. I play on PlayStation, so it'd he cool to maybe have some gaming buddies too!

Disclaimer - I'm real new to all three things I've listed. If you're an electronics/general-DIY nerd, into SCA and other historical reenactment, and/or into anything from sailing to endurance-based racing (think open water swimming, adventure racing, fastpacking, orienteering), I'd love to see if we click. Mostly looking for other guys my age and maybe a decade older, but I'm pretty chill - whether you're a cool 22yo gal or a 51yo MtF adventurer, if we get along we'll get along, I'm not tripping.
i don't have anything better to do today, so i guess i'm just here to waste my time.
my name is kira, i like playing video games, watching anime, cosplaying, hanging out with friends, meeting new people, things like that. i'm so bored today so if anyone wants to chat that'd be cool
30 US. I travel full time, so making consistent friends to go out with isn’t really possible and I’m rarely in one spot long. I like to talk and get to know folks. I know I won’t click with everyone, but i do tend to get along with most everyone and it’s fun to get to know every walk of life.
I have quiet BPD, but I feel like it’s pretty well managed. I am partnered, we’re open, but I’m looking for friends. Mostly someone who also likes to chat a little more often than not.
I enjoy the darker things in life, though I’ll talk about anything. I like to write, read, and question reality. Outdoors is the best, my two dogs love to make me feel old and slow on hikes. Haha. Amateur climber, mountain biking and just cruising through town.
Come say hi. 🙃
My friend group is currently getting really busy with their personal life so we haven't had much time to do much, looking for someone that would be down to talk and just chill with, if you’re a gamer we can play although we don’t have to if that’s not your thing, I’m pretty open to anything so if you’re interested lmk lol Anyone is welcomed, I have discord also.
I live on the east coast, United States. I enjoy tv/movies/combat sports/some videogames/content creating.
Ideally we’d be able to text any time of the day and talk about anything. Binge watch some tv/movies together and just talk and share whatever our brains cook up. Life is just boring, and lonely sometimes, and it doesn’t have to be.
Please be 30 and up in age, United states or a comparable time zone to mine, and preferably female. Married or single, kids or not I do not mind. Just be cool, and mature. One word replies and I don’t work out well, as well as hours in between replies. Clingy people a plus lol. I can hold a convo, can you?
Not a ghoster/you be the same. If something isn’t working we can agree to go our separate ways no harm no foul.
Also, if you’re a woman that collects people like baseball cards, 😂 aka, has like 100 conversations going from posting here, leave me out of it. I am a quality over quantity person and am looking for connections, not being a number.
Married 34 , Scottish 🏴 come say hello 👋
I'm easy to talk to about anything, I'll reply as quick as I can I usually get busy chatting with these posts so I'll reply as soon as I can, look forward to hearing from you
26 M its been lonely lately so I'd love some friends I'm fluent in Japanese and I can help w that to anyone interested. My hobbies include true crime, horror, mindfuck surreal stuff, supernaturals, mahjong, anime (playing yakuza/Lost Judgment lately), cyberpunk (not the game) writing and math. Honestly I dig anything avant garde. Although in general I'm a chill person and would love listening/talking to anything including mental issues or life in general. I love deep conversations and a bit of dark humor now and then XD
My friend group is currently getting really busy with their personal life so we haven't had much time to do much, looking for some friends that would be down to play games or just chill, I'm open to trying new games out as well, I'm on pc hmu for my discord! Anyone is welcomed!
Hill, just looking to meet nice people and maybe become friends, I play video games also so if ur interested in playing Imk lol, my mic currently doesn't work but I have one coming next week, we can also just text or something if that's all you want to do that's fine by me, I have discord and other socials also. Anyone is welcomed
If they do, that's what I'm looking for.
I do actually believe in platonic soulmates. Maybe one of you out there does too; at least that's my hope.
My name is Nick and I live in Ipswich, England. It's 140 miles away from where I used to live in the West Midlands, but I am in fact an East Midlander by birth and upbringing, so I've been around the block a bit!
Anyway, I don't wanna ramble on for too long - I'll try to keep this concise.
Hobbies: Reading, writing, football, music production, photography
Other Interests: Architecture, sociology, mental health, British subcultures and social history
Dislikes: Grapefruit, shopping (unless it's online)
Personality: Varies depending on tiredness level, but I'm a very laid-back guy. Big fan of sarcasm and irony. Also generally pretty affectionate towards those I care about and develop a bond with. If you don't like pet names, you're probably gonna have to just get over it ;) I come from a place where we call both men and women 'duck' at the end of a greeting, and men of all ages can be called 'youth'. It's part of who I am.
What am I looking for? Well, someone who isn't going to ghost is a great starting point, because I've honestly lost count of how many times I've been ghosted over the past year, even by those I thought I got on really well with. Even for a 32 year old guy, it's a little upsetting building a bond and then someone disappearing on you. Apart from that though, if you're a nice person and you're happy to make an effort to get to know each other, talk regularly and not just give me direct replies but engage in proper conversation, hit me up! Generally speaking, I do get on better with women! Your age doesn't matter so long as you're 23 or older!
I have a preference to meet people from Europe! This isn't set in stone though.
If I don't reply immediately, don't panic or think I'm not interested, sometimes I just have other stuff to do, but I'm on Reddit regularly :)
By the way, this is me
Hi all I'm looking for friends and people to talk to. I am from new zealand, I am autistic and sometimes say things that I don't mean without realizing. In my spare time I like to game and work on my racecar. I am also a bit of a workaholic haha. So send me a dm if you wanna have a chat.
Really just title. I play video games, shoot competitively, and play the violin. I speak 3 languages, and I am studying aerospace engineering in college. When dming me, I would really appreciate if you were to tell me your age and gender please :3 I’m really bad at talking to people so pleaseeeeee be patient 😭
(Dear lord this 50 word requirement has me feeling like I’m writing an English paper in high school all over again, just filler words lol)
