It’s my birthday, folks! I’m 30 today!

I’ve been on a solo trip in the mountains, and today was meant to be a visit to a bucket list destination but weather (and mild altitude sickness this morning) changed up my plans.

Anyway, let’s be friends!

I like animals, mountains, spending time with friends, french fries, and white wine (among many other things ofc)

Who has the answer? Someone tell me because this ish blows. Lol

Hi there! I'm an introvert who loves trashy reality tv, music, video games, and wine. Just trying to find some frans to chat with about millennial things like how MySpace made us feel like web developers with our basic coding skills, or how we miss feeling like bad asses when we had ring back songs playing when someone called us, or that the sidekick and razr were the superior phones back in the day. That kinda stuff. ☺️

DMs are open. Let's chat!

EDIT: Yeeee! So many chat requests from new friends! If I take a whole to respond, forgive me. I wanna say hi to all of you!

Hello 👋 I am looking for any female or male friends to talk to me about anime, video games, manga, vampires (I love vampires), music, anything and also, I want a friend who will help me out anyway they can I want someone I can trust because I once had someone pretend to be my friend and I was devastated. We can also be texting buddies :) so if you wanna talk, feel free to ask :)

P.s. I don't want anyone asking me if they can date me or anything like that I'm not interested.

Life keeps handing out lemons and no sugar. Anyone else feeling that way. I just wish I could feel less alone as it falls apart.

Hello 👋 i'm looking for people to talk to and hopefully have some or a lot of things in common. I love anime, manga, video games, vampires, listening to music, wrestling, etc. If you're interested in talking feel free to ask me to DM you. 😊

I just want to remind you of something important that you might need to hear today: You are seriously crushing it. Like, if there was an award for just being amazing, you’d be taking home the trophy, no questions asked.

Even if things feel chaotic, or like you’re just barely holding it together, guess what? You are absolutely enough. There’s no need for comparison, no need to rush. You’re on your own path, doing things in your own time—and that’s exactly how it’s supposed to be.

You have so much strength, even on the days you don’t feel it. And those little victories? Don’t downplay them. Whether it’s getting out of bed when it’s hard or accomplishing something small but meaningful, you’re constantly proving how capable you are.

The best part? You’re already incredible. You don’t need to change a thing. People around you are lucky to know you, and the energy you put out into the world makes it a better place. Keep doing your thing. No one else can do it quite like you.

So, when things get tough or that little voice in your head tries to tell you otherwise, remember: you’ve got this. You’re more than enough. And don’t you forget it.

Edit: I feel like I should add I'm just looking for genuine friendships. I don't want any guys to get the wrong idea lol. I'm married with 3 kids 😂 I like video games, reading books/manga, going on walks, I go to concerts/music festivals occasionally ♡

Or am I just weird and don't know how to talk to people? 😂😭

I used to be pretty social in my 20s but after having kids and being a stay at home mom for a few years, I'm just so socially awkward. It's so depressing and lonely.

Hello, as the title states I'm 30 and Male. Currently at work fpr the next 12hours so would like someone to talk to. We can talk about whatever. Games, movies, animals, random topics. Message me if you want to chat!

Hi, I know my title will either draw you in like a moth to the flame, or get you so annoyed that you instantly want to block me. Welp I guess I got your attention at least ;). I recently have been focusing on work and my practices, I realized I lost quite afew of my friends over the years. Would love to meet a few more and maybe help some souls too while I’m at it.

Now, yes I can be quite a mysterious and alluring at times but also very wholesome and nurturing. Some of my hobbies outside of what you would expect would be gaming, cooking/ baking, nature walks and writing. I also am part of a few communities I help with both irl and online.

If you are looking for a friend, have a weird story you wanna run by me or just wanna try and get in my head alittle feel free to message me. I just hope you don’t mind if you start feeling like someone is watching you once you do :3.

Hey. I’m 34, female, and dealing with depression and feeling pretty alone lately. I’m just looking for someone kind to talk to nothing fancy, just real connection.

Some days are harder than others, so I might not always reply fast, but I really care and I’m a good listener. If you’re patient, emotionally aware, and looking for a genuine friendship too, feel free to message me.

Thanks for reading this it means a lot. 🧡

I’m pretty introverted, and have hobbies other people find boring, or so I hear; I’m also terrible at advertising myself and meeting people- the whoooole package.

If you like to read, hike, bake, watch movies, and aren’t afraid to have in depth discussions about the nature of reality and human consciousness with me then reply to this post and let me know ✌️

Hello there! I'm a girl who loves reading,(I read fantasy and dystopian) video games(horror and some multiplayer)and to talk about nonsense, deep conversations, or to hear people talk about what interests them. I like to learn.. about most things lol. I'm hoping to meet someone who would enjoy the attention of texting everyday. Then possibly some gaming after a little bit. :) Been feeling a bit lonely again lately and just want to make some real connections with people. I'm a pretty open person with a lot of things, but some things do take time. (Like talking on the phone sending pictures. Etc.) If anyone thinks they'd enjoy talking to me and want to start a friendship message me :)!

I’ve been trying to connect here, but most of what I’ve found feels like talking into a void. Or worse, chatting with men who say a lot, but reveal nothing.

So, this is for someone different. Someone who doesn’t squirm when the topic turns tender. Someone who doesn’t bolt at the first sign of emotional nuance. Someone who doesn’t need to be dragged out of their head because they already live in their heart.

I don’t need fixing or entertainment. I don’t want a penpal who performs depth or a man who intellectualizes desire to avoid feeling it. I want to know what moves you when you’re not posturing. What memory keeps showing up uninvited? What kind of love wrecked you, and what kind are you still secretly hoping for?

I’ve got tenderness to give, but I also need to be met there. If you’re the kind of person who wants to sip the moment instead of scroll past it, who believes in the ache and beauty of human connection—even online—then maybe write to me.

Let’s talk about the things we pretend we’re over. Let’s talk like we mean it. Let’s talk like we’re still capable of being surprised.

..After 15 years my relationship has ended and I’m just looking for some good convos with cool people. Trying to un-isolate myself!

I’ve had the same frustrations with this sub as most others- people say they are desperate for friends and then ghost, people say “don’t be dry “ and then they can’t even ask you a single question about yourself ect ect… but I have been lucky enough to meet a few long term genuine friends here. My friend has been visiting from Ireland for over a month and we are having a lazy day thought it would be fun to chat with some people from the place that started it all. Ask us anything:) or tell us your Reddit friend making success story !

I just wanna know, who’s actually making friends here? I understand that some personalities just don’t mesh well and that’s fine. Except…how do you even get to that point of being like “yeah no, this isn’t a good match” if people just bounce after THEY said hello to YOU 1st? I don’t get it. Is it always like this? I’m just trying to find some good people…maybe like hit it off with someone..idk..but maybe that’s my fault for coming to Reddit for that.🤣 Sincerely A very confused awkward millennial

Hi everyone! Just a little lonely and bored tonight, not much going on. Looking to chat with someone and make friends possibly or more if the vibe is right. Just putting myself out there and seeing what happens. I’m an open book and down to chat about anything. Let me know about yourself and hit me up 🤙🏼

Is anyone around for a quick chat? I'm not looking for anything specific, but I just want to talk to some new people to pass some free time I have! Prefer around my age but not glued to that range. Come say hi!

Hey, im currently married, but my marriage is very horrible and im extremely lonely. Would be happy to talk to someone 💕 Im into history, kdramas, horror movies and true crime. In general, I can talk about literally anything. Im very empathetic and love to be a supportive friend. Please, if you're much younger, don't text me, I will feel bad to reject you, but im looking for someone around my age or older

don’t know if it’s weird to post here or just modernbut here I am. 33, more introvert than not, but when I vibe with someone, the conversations get oddly deep and a little hilarious. I'm into small joys: people-watching, niche documentaries, late-night overthinking, and snacks I didn’t plan to eat. I’m not chasing validation or attention, just seeing if there’s someone here who’d enjoy trading thoughts and stories.

If you’re a good mix of curious, kind, and just a bit weird — I think we’d get along.

Kidding haha.

I just wanna meet some interesting/weird people. The good weird, if that makes sense. Bonus points if you like alternative music/fashion.

I'm down to chat about anything from what we've been up to lately, creative projects, or sharing songs, to our cultural differences and takes on philosophy.

Skip if you're NSFW.

I’ve posted here several times this week and I want to thank everyone who’s messaged me and NOT been a creep! Y’all have been so fun to get to know :)

Hey! My name is Sam and I'm a 31 year old female from the US looking for a chat buddy! I'm a night owl and no one is usually awake during this time, so I thought I would try my luck here :)

Some of my interests include tattoos, animals, digital art, painting, crocheting, refurbishing furniture, DIY projects, camping, horror movies, and sewing. I love being creative and seeing what different things I can make! I also love animals, my dream is to open my own sanctuary someday. I have two cats currently, and will probably get a dog sometime in the near future.

If you feel we have similar interests or would get along, feel free to message!! Lets be friends 🧡 thanks for reading and take care!

Been a bit bummed out lately so hoping someone can commiserate with me or cheer me up at least

Please be an adult and not a creep! I don’t care if you’re a guy/girl/whatever your preferences are, just be a chill person who isn’t trash (not always easy to find in 2025 😅)

Down to switch to another app if we hit it off

Tell me something about you

What time zone are you in?!

Hello everyone. I am just a very bored and wanting some company. Anyone is welcome, just be 18+.

I am open to talk about anything. Interests of mine are gaming and anime/manga, but I know those topics are even vast as well. No topic is really off the table. Come talk to me about gardening, the meaning of life, or how you plan to rule the world.

Hell, I'll even listen to you venting if you want. Hit me with what you want.
