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 everyone! My name is Alex, I’m 26 years old. I’m learning English and looking for someone for a chat, language practice and friendship. My hobbies are: gym, swimming, memes posting on Reddit, piano playing, and I like games (my favorite is the Doom 2016 series). I also enjoy watching movies and reading science fiction. If you want to know more about me or share your interests, send me a DM. I’d be happy to chat with each of you and make new friends! Looking forward to meeting you!
P.S. If I don’t reply right away, I’ll try to get back to everyone when I can. See you!
Bored and don’t have many friends to talk with. Would love a cheerful friend to give me company and not let me feel down.
We can talk about anything on our minds, preferably good vibes and hopes.
Someone who is willing to share face pic occasionally so we both feel some connection.
There so many topics we can talk about, if you like then do send me a message and I’ll happily respond back.
Hi
I finished work and just getting dressed to go out and get some coffee. I had a long week and I just want to enjoy my time going to the weekend. This is where you can come in. Do you want to have a conversation? I hope so.
Message me and we can have a normal mundane conversation, nothing too deep. Just the normal stuff, how are you? How's your day? And similar things like this.
Please just be 22+
Hello,
Looking for people to text with all day/night. I'm a night owl and tend to stay up until 2am or so and I'm on the west coast. Recently went through a breakup and realize I was very isolated in that relationship - to the point that I don't really have any friends.
Hello,
M4W
54M married looking for a long term chatting/texting friends, US/Anywhere. I'm looking to make some open minded friends that enjoy talking about any and everything, I love the outdoor stuff, travel, food, sports, movies, music, please be 18 and older and drama free. I hope to hear from soon.
Hello I am just looking for new friends. Phone is dry lol. I am 37 and located in the USA. Wanting to move off of Reddit once we chat for a bit. My interests and hobbies are mainly anything tech related and watching tv. And listening to music. Hope to hear from some people.
Howdy y’all, I’m Mike. I’m a human service worker at a state hospital for the criminally insane. I work night shift so most of my time at work is spent reading and handing out coffee in the early morning.
When I’m not at work I normally either play video games, spend time outdoors, or working on my project truck. I’m an avid outdoors man who has no issue living off the land and know my local woods and water ways like the back of my hand. Sadly due to work I rarely get the chance to go camping.
I enjoy spending time playing video games, mostly Stardew valley, borderlands 2, and fallout 4 but have a wide range of video games I’ll occasionally sit back and play.
I also currently have a project truck, it’s a 2000 chevy silverado that my grandpa got me when I was 15 but the engine blew last year, it’s currently sitting on blocks in the back yard while I save up to put a new engine in, I’m probably going to put a 383 stroker engine in it because race car.
So yeah, if you’re looking for a down to earth, jack of all trades guy who is slightly socially awkward feel free to dm me, any and all are welcome
hey there! 33f here, on the hunt for some awesome texting pals to maybe turn into besties. we can chat about flicks, tunes, anime, manga, books, and yeah, food's always a good topic. i'm kinda shy and keep to myself, but give me a bit and i'll warm up. fingers crossed to connect with some cool folks and make some friends
22, M4F/A, is someone up for some late night chatting/talking (or whatever your time zone is), we can talk about whatever you like, just be around my age maybe :) I like a lot of stuff and I am open minded so just send a message here, can't wait to hear from you :)
Hello, I'm from Europe (Belgium). I want to try making more friends online because I love talking to people around the world, learning new things, sharing things I love, and I would like to have genuine friendships.
I have noticed a lot of people are willing to talk about themselves and their problems but do not know how to be active listeners and engage in two-way conversations. This is just from my personal perspective though. I feel like I always end up turning into a therapist or peer support without any reciprocity or interest in asking about me.
Then, of course, all of the people that want relationships and not friendships that ghost as soon as they are not getting what they want. Those are the two biggest reasons why I seem to struggle with meeting people.
So tbh I’m just looking for some company really lol. My night is kinda boring right now so I’m trying to make it a bit more interesting by talking to someone here. Sooo yeah. If you’re also looking for some company, message me:)
Hey everyone!
I’m a 21-year-old guy from Poland, and here’s a bit about me:
📺 I love binge-watching TV series, especially crime, thrillers, political dramas, and sometimes horror. There are a lot of shows I'm looking forward to the next season, like: S.W.A.T, The Rookie, 9-1-1, The Night Agent, From. And recently I watched Stranger Things. OMG IT WAS SO GOOD!!! Currently I'm watching "How to get away with murder". But I have watched more series and I'm looking to watch a looot more so if you got any recommendations or want to chat about your favorites of these genres, hit me up!
👨🎓 I'm currently studying applied linguistics (english-russian) at uni, and it doesn't mean I'm a sucker for learning languages, but I have to say I enjoy the process of learning.
📖 It's not the thing I do on a daily basis, but I also enjoy reading crime and thriller books. I'm now reading "Vanishing Girls" by Lisa Regan. If you have a favorite book or author in these genres, let me know!
🌍 Recently I became interested in politics and geopolitics. Even though I'm not an expert on this topic I can conduct some conversation about it.
🗺 I'm into getting to know different cultures and people from all over the world. Whether it's history, food, or just casual talk, I love learning about new perspectives. And honestly, I enjoy talking about almost anything! Whether it's deep conversations or just joking around, I'm always up for a good chat.
And please guys if you decide to message me, put some effort in your introduction. I do not reply to "Hey." and so on.
If you think we might vibe, feel free to reach out! Can't wait to meet some awesome people here! 🫶

Life has been monotonous lately so I’m looking for someone to go on dates with, a slow burn getting to know each other with tons of flirting and thrill!
Are you someone extroverted, clingy and talkative like me? Someone who needs to speak to someone constantly? Someone who would love to share very random stories about themselves? Someone who’s fine with small talks throughout the day and occasional deep talks when time permits? Someone who would want to randomly get some midnight snacks and have each other for dessert?
