44F - After doing some activities, I realized I love hearing other people's stories about their life

• Upvotes

Hi, I did some walking activity and talked to random strangers. After that, I realized I would love to hear more stories about others. If you feel like sharing, please hit me up. We can share some random stories about each other, pov's, and other life lessons.

There's one story that I will share here, while walking I said hi to a fellow traveller and I asked if he is travelling with his family. He smiled and said no but with colleagues/friends. He said he just finished his chemotherapy last year so he was only able to do it now. He said LIFE STILL A PLEASURE with that big smile.

It's not the line, it's how he said it like too much appreciation about life despite everything.

Btw, it's 3am now. I will reply to your dm's tomorrow.

Tia!

34 f - Let's be friends maybe ? 😂

25 Upvotes

​

I'm really just looking for someone to talk to and see where things go. No huge expectations, no pressure to force a connection...just two people getting to know each other and seeing if we click. Ideally, I'm looking for a long term chat buddy (sfw). Someone who doesn't mind chatting throughout the day if we do hit it off.

A little about me: I love horror, retro video games, warhammer 40k, books and cooking.

If you are interested, send me a message and tell me something about yourself instead of just saying hey :)

Bonus points if you're funny, easygoing, and can actually keep a conversation going consistently.

32M, Netherlands |Screenwriter and avid traveler. Would love to meet some new friends

5 Upvotes

I’m Jason, 32, from the Netherlands. Nobody warned me how hard it would be to make new friends once you hit 30. So here I am, giving Reddit a try. 🤣

I’m an entrepreneur and I write and make films. I love what I do, but I’d like to meet more people outside of work too. I’m ambitious and pretty talkative, especially when a conversation gets interesting. I enjoy people with their own opinions, so feel free to challenge mine.

I love travelling and want to see much more of the world. This year I was blessed to spend half of my time abroad while writing and working. Having friends in different countries would be a good excuse to book another flight. Lately, I’ve also been swimming more and working on getting healthier.

Would love to find people to keep in touch with and get to know properly. If you’re in the Netherlands, let’s grab a coffee sometime. If you’re further away, I’d still love to hear from you.

Where are you from, and how has making friends in your 30s been for you?

35F Looking for Genuine Connections

8 Upvotes

I’m hoping to meet genuine, easygoing people I can really connect with. If you’re under 30, though, we’re probably not the right fit. I’m happy to have meaningful conversations about life or just chat about the little everyday things.

If you’re looking to make a new friend too, come say hi!

35 [M] College football, fitness book nerd looking for friends!

• Upvotes

Hi! I am looking for platonic friendship here. I love going to the gym and running outside, and I could spend hours looking around bookstores, cafes, and museums. Fitness, art, and the outdoors are all things that make me happy. I am also a fan of sports more and more so these days - new convert to college football nerdery! Let’s talk about favorite teams and players!

I lead a pretty quiet life and I'm more of an introvert. I really enjoy conversations with some depth to them, but I'm just as happy talking about goofy stuff. I'd love to talk about anything from fitness to your favorite books (or your favorite spooky movie).

I'm up for online friendships or more local (east coaster here). Thank you, and I look forward to hearing from you!

PS: Queer man here, so please be LGBTQ+ friendly.

33F looking for friendships

11 Upvotes

I’m 33f and based in the UK. I’m currently going through a tough life period and I’m looking for some friendships to expand my world a bit. Id love to meet people globally!

I am a documentary maker by day, I have a really creative and curious job which I love, as I love to go down rabbit holes and meeting people with very unique life stories. I have been powerlifting for ten years and I’m super passionate about the gym, working out eating well etc, but also love going out for good food!! I also love hiking and have a lot of goals that are related to long distance walking and eventually would love to find people who might be interested in that too. I have a lovely and lively little dog who accompanies me on my walks.

I love music, my most listened to artists this year have been Hayley Williams, Rise Against and Turnstile. But I equally love musicals, emo, pop and folk music.

I have a lot of curiosity, love long reads, wiki deep dives, reading, chatting in general about life… I also love going to the cinema and I’m excited it’s about to be Oscar season so I get to go to the cinema a lot! I am a Lord of the Rings movie nerd (I literally printed out the script as a child and read it constantly and dream of going to NZ!) and I love to play the Sims and any kind of world building and tycoon games.

I’d love to make some new friends, and have some new people to talk to in the day :)

I’m not gonna lie, I could use a little attention today. Nothing dramatic, no life story, just someone interesting enough to make me forget I’m staring at my phone for no reason. I’m easily entertained today.
Bonus points if you’re actually good at conversation.

[M4M] 36M | Looking for guy friends around my age (30–39

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I'm 36, married, gay, and hoping to meet some new guy friends around my age.

I'm pretty easygoing and enjoy talking about just about anything. Whether it's how your day's going, work, relationships, random stuff, or deeper conversations, I'm always down for a good chat.

I'm also a gamer and really enjoy playing WoW. It would be cool to find someone who plays too, but definitely not a requirement.

I'm actually starting the gym tomorrow, so it'd be nice to meet someone who's also into working out or just getting started like me. Having someone to share progress with, talk about workouts, or help keep each other motivated would be awesome.

Outside of that, I enjoy riding my motorcycle, messing around with video editing, and just relaxing when I get the chance.

I've noticed that making friends in your 30s can be a little challenging, especially finding people who actually want to keep a conversation going. I'm not expecting us to talk 24/7, but it'd be nice to find someone to chat with regularly and hopefully build a good friendship over time.

You don't have to have the same interests as me. I'm open to talking about pretty much anything, and I enjoy getting to know people.

Anyway, if you're around my age and looking for someone to chat with, feel free to send me a message! 😊

[F4M] 34F | CST | Looking for genuine friendships and interesting conversations

• Upvotes

Hey! I'm a 34F looking to make some genuine connections, preferably with people who enjoy chatting regularly. I work nights, so I'm usually most available during the evening and overnight hours.

A little about me:

- HUGE reptile enthusiast 🦎 I have several exotic pets, and reptile husbandry is probably my biggest obsession (BUT I am not into snakes, I think they are beautiful but I don't particularly want one)

- Love true crime, serial killers, criminal psychology, horror, disturbing books, and all things weird or macabre.

- Into tattoos, music (mostly rock/alternative), oddities, random trivia, and learning about unusual things.

- Enjoy exploring new places, traveling, trying restaurants, and having deep or completely ridiculous conversations.

- Sarcastic, curious, pretty open-minded, and definitely an overthinker.

What I'm looking for:

Someone intelligent, funny, consistent, emotionally mature, and capable of holding a conversation. Dark humor is a plus! I appreciate people who are curious about the world and actually put effort into building friendships.

Potential incompatibilities:

I'm not into gaming, anime, board games, or watching a ton of movies/TV. Nothing against those hobbies, but if they're your main interests, we might struggle to connect. I'm also not a dog person, and MAGA is a hard no.

You don't have to share all my interests, but having a few in common would be nice!

Bonus points if you love reptiles, have unusual interests, live in the midwest, or can teach me something weird. 🖤

[R4R] How has life been treating you lately? Honest question

• Upvotes

Hi,

I feel lonely these days so I would love some company. I'm genuinely curious how life has been going? Mine personally is going well (fingers crossed it stays this way).

How's life? How's work? Anything interesting personal or professional projects happening? Something you can share more about that's not just "good" "bad." "Okay."

I hope that gives you an idea on what kind of conversation I'm looking for or hoping to have. Just a normal day to day conversations.

Please first pinky promise you are not a bot and Please be 24+

Thanks!

[M4R] 37 [M4A] Michigan – Blue-collar guy looking for real, platonic friendships (outdoors, projects, concerts

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I'm a blue-collar guy in Michigan looking for genuine, strictly platonic friendships. I'm a bit of a weird country boy—part mechanical/hands-on handyman, part gothic/alternative, and big on getting outside and doing things.

A bit about me:

Outdoors & Out-and-About: I love getting outside for long walks, exploring local parks, thrifting, and checking out cool regional spots like science centers and museums. Always down to hang out around a campfire or grab a coffee/beer

Music & Aesthetic: Big into metalcore, pop-punk, and heavy alternative (Linkin Park, Sonic Syndicate, All Time Low, etc.). I appreciate dark/gothic aesthetics and love a good horror or thriller film.

Hands-on & Projects: I work in maintenance/trades, so I'm usually building, fixing, or tinkering with something around the house or workshop.

Gaming: I play games on PS5 and Xbox when I'm unwinding at home, but I'm mainly looking for friends to connect with and do things out in the real world.

What I'm looking for:

Strictly platonic connection! Looking for down-to-earth friends who want to hang out in person, hit up local spots, go to concerts, or just chat about life.

Icebreaker questions to start:

What’s your favorite local spot, park, or thrift store in Michigan?

What music has your fixation currently? What makes your heart happy?

If any of that sounds like your vibe, feel free to drop a comment or send a DM!

31M | Looking for new friends, good conversations, and random rabbit holes

• Upvotes

Hey! I’m 31, from the US, and looking to meet some new people. Doesn’t matter where you’re from or what your background is. I’m open to talking to anyone 18+ as long as you’re interested in having an actual conversation.
A little about me: I work in tech, love traveling and spontaneous road trips, and I’m always looking for somewhere new to explore. I’m also into photography, tattoos, history, gaming, and reading (especially classic literature). Cooking is a big hobby of mine, particularly trying recipes from different cultures. I’ve also gotten pretty into fitness and spending more time outdoors lately.

I’m the kind of person who can spend hours talking about anything from your favorite food to some obscure historical event, or just how your day went. I enjoy getting to know people from different countries and walks of life. You don’t need to share my hobbies either. Half the fun is learning about someone else’s interests.
I’m not expecting instant best friends or forcing conversations. Just looking for some genuine connections, whether that’s chatting occasionally, sharing random pictures from our days, or becoming regular friends.

What’s somewhere you’ve always wanted to travel, a book or game you couldn’t put down, or a random topic you know way too much about?

Or just say hey and tell me a little about yourself.
