47 Upvotes

Tomorrow is my birthday. Even though I’m in an ok place in my life. I’m not exactly where I want to be. I’m 32F. I’m a software engineer though I don’t want to be. I have never been in relationship and I would love to have kids someday but I can’t seem to find someone to do that with . I just wish I had a career I loved and a man I loved

23F Looking For Deep Connection

Upvotes

I am 23f in the United States and enjoy sending memes, videos, music and book recommendations, etc. and I enjoy talking about life, philosophy, funny jokes, etc.

I really want to find someone I can open up to and talk about anything with as a real, true friend, where we both are excited to talk and listen to each other.

I enjoy all nerd things, coding, science, The Big Bang Theory, Doctor Who, Star Trek, reading books like A Brief History Of Time, etc.

I also struggle with mental health issues, life problems, and chronic pain but do my best each day to be positive.

If you want a real friend and an interesting conversation, please reach out. Thanks!

Sometimes it's nice to talk to a stranger about where you are in life. Sometimes you can only tell a stranger all your fears and doubts about life. Idk why I'm on here but I'd love to have an active conversation with someone. Let's get real plzzzzzz

35 F UK - Looking for friendship

Upvotes

Sorry imaginative titles was clearly not my strong point!

Hi! I'm McBeepo! A little bit about me and a bit about what I'm looking for:

- I love to travel, and by this I mean go on holiday a lot. Unfortunately due to work and my health conditions I can't for long periods of time, but I love to explore new places and I'd love to see as much of the world as possible before I'm unable. I currently have a trip to Norway planned.

- I love history and when I can, I go to to musueums, castles, old houses, sites etc. either in the UK or abroad

- I also love an art gallary although my knowledge is extremely poor, I just find them relaxing

- At home, I love gardening and and i'm not looking forward to autumn if i'm honest

- Casual PC gamer. Play the same old few games. I used to play a lot more RPGs but I don't have the time to commit to gaming anymore

- Trying to find the motivation to get fit and to start crocheting and baking again!

I do have a busy job and I'm not always available to speak all of the time. I'm also married so friendships that are strictly platonic. I'm also not interested in VN and chatting online (I am extremely shy) so text is preferred to begin with. I also struggle with health issues and I know a lot of people find that a place to bond over so if that's you, I'm happy to share. Also please be roughly around my age or older.

46F looking to expand my social circle

6 Upvotes

Hey there!

My name is Alex and I habe to admit that after my divorce I lost a rather big part of my social circle so I was hoping to meet some new interesting people this way.

I'd say I'm rather uncomplicated and talk without much of a filter about mundane or the most private topics which some people like and some don't so best to find out yourself. I don't expect to get a reply instantly but value if we both match in effort so one word messages are not my cup of tea I'd say. Anyway, if someone is still witv me at this point, feel free to message me:)

Lost myself 35/female

15 Upvotes

I have nothing going on for myself aside from being a parent. I am married and I love my husband. I anxiously wait for him to come home every night and sometimes we'll take a shower together and show each other some funny videos and have a good night. But most of the time he's in a bad mood and I'm just alone for the rest of the night. I love my kids but it is a lot to deal with. I take care of them all by myself and do all of the cooking and cleaning and parenting, he just works. I work from home starting recently for the same company as him at a job that I was poorly trained in so I never feel like I'm doing good at that either. I do care about it so I get stressed out about the things I was not shown. I don't have one single friend and all of my family lives in different cities or States than me. I recently have been looking into therapy or medication and it's just too expensive for me. I don't really know what to do or who to talk to, but it doesn't seem like something I can ask about in a mom's group on Facebook.

I’m so lonely man.. I just wanna feel like I’m involved and have someone

I’m a 22F that just feels so utterly depressed and alone recently, I’m trying medication however I don’t know where the hell I put it somehow and that’s not helping with shit.

I’m extremely non judgemental and I just need someone that doesn’t know me IRL to do the same.

Looking for nice friend

Upvotes

I’m hoping to find a genuine platonic friend to chat with from time to time. I’m introverted, a little shy at first, and definitely more **textroverted** than extroverted. I enjoy the kind of conversations that wander from everyday moments to random thoughts that somehow become meaningful.
Lately I’ve been spending more time focusing on myself and exploring new hobbies. Art, crafts, cozy movies, music, and plants have been quietly catching my attention, even if I’m still very much a beginner.
Maybe, if we click, we could even have the occasional voice call someday—but no pressure.
I have a partner, so I’m only looking for a kind, respectful, pressure-free friendship. If you’re someone who enjoys slow conversations and believes good friendships don’t have to be loud, I’d love to hear from you.

23F from Austria looking for a friend to text with!

2 Upvotes

(Im Crazy btw…*

I’m a building technician and spend most of my time working, gaming, or just existing and trying to survive adulthood😭

I play League of Legends and Wild Rift, so bonus points if you play too.

Mostly, though, I’m just looking for a genuine texting buddy. Someone to talk to throughout the day, share random thoughts, memes, complain about life, and hopefully build a nice friendship with.
If you’re looking for the same, feel free to add me on

*… I have bpd but I control it very good I just realise I’m fucked up and I embrace it 🤭)

34F just looking for some friends... loneliness is getting to me

8 Upvotes

Hi,

Do you ever feel like all we do is work, eat, sleep, and do it over and over again? Yea, me too!

That's how it's been for me for a while and I've been trying to break the cycle just a little bit.

Anyway, I'm here to find some like minded people to chat with. I'm a big reader, currently reading Dungon Crawler Carl, ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! If you know the book then you must think I'm into video games, you'd be right. And I have the same humor style.

Every morning I go for a power walk, so I like to exercise, and my favorite thing I am obsessed with right now is thrifting. I do watch TV but it's more as background noise while I play a game or read. And.if.im watching something it's typically Gilmore girls or Grey's anatomy for the 100,000 time.

Hopefully I hear from you soon

Upvotes

Hey! I’m Maya, 21F from India. I’m here to meet some new people, have interesting conversations, and hopefully make a few genuine friends.

A little about me: I’m into cycling, going to the gym, badminton, football, hiking, coding, watching Netflix overnight, and trying new cafés and food places. I enjoy random conversations, talking about life, sharing secrets, and getting to know people from different places.

I’m looking for people around my age who are friendly, respectful, and genuinely interested in making friends. If you think we’d get along, feel free to message me.
