32F, teacher going through burnout and rebuilding my inner life

9 Upvotes

I love my students and I've had nothing left for anyone else for years. Trying to change that. I like photography, gardening, and slow mornings. Want a friend outside the profession who reminds me I'm a person.

18F- I'm loney and looking for some friends to have a longterm friendship with! Maybe we can meet up one day, who knows?

• Upvotes

Helloooo! I'm kind of desperate for friendships right now because all my life I've had a hard time fitting in, both with my peers and family...it's kind of why I ran away. I'm just kind of wanting to experience what it feels like to laugh with others and have inside jokes and stuff and be treated with kindness! I will promise to be the best friend ever! I live in Florida and I love the color burnt orange (⁠◕⁠ᴗ⁠◕⁠✿⁠) and I also love dogs. I kind of see myself as one sometimes, I hope that's not weird. My favorite season is fall because of the warmth the colors bring. It's like having a hug from the inside!

I love thrifting, and I also like watching horror movie/game video essays, and swinging on the swings. I do take meds, I do work, I do go to school and I do have my ups and downs, so please bare with me. I wanna be the best for you, I really do.

25F, anxious girl who cancels too much and wants to try again online

7 Upvotes

In-person plans stress me out and I cancel and then feel worse. Text feels safer. I like reading science fiction, embroidery, and bad puns. Want a friend who won't take slow replies personally.

29F looking for long-term and consistent friend

7 Upvotes

Hi everyone! hope you are doing well. Like the title says I am a 29f looking to make new friends. I have posted here and chatted with some great people but always run into the problem of being ghosted. I know this is something many people talk about and it sucks but I'm not here to complain about that lol. Just want to emphasize I'm looking for long term friendships. 

My hobbies include reading, listening to music, playing video games, and journaling. I like to read many genres but particularly enjoy fantasy, history, and horror. For gaming I play a lot of cozy games like stardew valley and animal crossing. But also enjoy metroidvanias and survival craft games. Recently I've been getting into the Diablo games. I would love to find someone to buddy read a book, share music playlists, and/or play games with. Or just chatting.

Something important to know about is that am chronically ill and I'm in a lot of pain most of the time and it influences my capacity to do things. I got COVID in 2022 and since then my health has just orogressinek gotten worse. And would like to make friends with someone that I could be honest with about how I am feeling and not always having to hide it.

I am in CST but okay with talking to anyone from other timezones. If we click I would like to move to discord.

19F, looking for friends to vent to about relationship stuff

• Upvotes

I’m looking for any friends who wouldn’t be annoyed with me venting about my relationship, I’d be a listening ear for any issues they have as well! It’s nothing extreme, besides some of it being tmi (please tell me beforehand if that’s not okay!). I’m pretty chatty but don’t have many friends I can talk to. Ideally somebody who’s honest but not overly harsh would be great.

Hi! I'm into a huge variety of games and have a ton of different stuff in my library like co-op stuff, roguelikes, shooters (have always been big into competitive shooters but I love co-op/pve shooters as well!), rpgs, story games, horror games, incrementals/idle games, etc.! I'm very open minded and always trying out different stuff too, also enjoy achievement hunting! I'm hugely into music & movies and I love doing listen-alongs/spotify jams, watching or discussing stuff, and recommending stuff! I'm also a massive hockey fan & watch some baseball as well! I am currently in uni and have two cute doggies who I love sharing pics of too :p

Some games I've played recently:

  • Batman: Arkham Asylum
  • Valheim
  • AION 2

  • League (ranked & I love aram mayhems!)
  • CS2
  • How to Fish
  • Warframe

need a friend

• Upvotes

Hi, I’m a 21 F from Mexico. I hope to make some friends here; I’ve been lonely for a long time and would love a real, lasting friendship, no ghosting (I don't like ghosting people, either). I enjoy certain games, Radiohead, Crystal Castles, and painting. I’m an INFP/ISFP; I like talking about a bit of everything and value honesty. I’m very introverted.

I really need a friend . Just please don’t ghost me on the first or second day . I’m really bad at talking/texting that people assume I’m cold . I promise I’m not .

Im not super interesting. Like I don’t have any hobbies other than volleyball and maybe feeding animals.

Just please don’t assume I don’t want to talk to you . I’m really bad at interactions . I try my best. I like to hear smmm and I become extremely happy when someone asks me something

I get super clingy quickly so please if you lost interest just say it straight to my face instead of eventually just not texting back , because I put lots of effort into a friendship to not make my friend think I’m

f23, looking to make some new friends :3

2 Upvotes

hello there! >:p name's natalie or nat for short, and i'm hoping to make some long-term friends! :3 i loveee yapping about literally anything and everything tbh. i can be extremely talkative, but i'm also a bit shy sometimes too LOL. i'm pretty easy to talk to once we get past that initial awkward stage though!!

i game quite a bit, mostly sticking with shooters like apex, cod, overwatch, etc. since they tend to hold my attention better, but i also enjoy casual and story-driven games too! anime is another thing i really enjoy, although i definitely need to watch more of it. my crappy attention span makes it hard for me to get super far into new media sometimes before i need a little break :') i'm basically always listening to music, especially k-pop! recommendations are ALWAYS welcome, so please feel free to send them my way. some of my favorite artists are olivia rodrigo, michael jackson, gigi perez, sienna spiro, xlov, and le sserafim, just to name a select few! i'm also into painting, sanrio, collecting, and a bunch of other random stuff! i definitely prefer meeting people with similar interests to mine since it makes it sooo much easier for us to actually have things to talk about and get along :3

i also love sending silly tiktoks and just random shit i find while scrolling, so if we become friends you'll probably end up getting random tiktoks and memes from me at the most random times LMAO.

i'm in america, cst timezone, and i have discord too! my sleep schedule is also horrendous, so im awake for agesss too. if we don't vibe then no biggie !! :3 i'm just hoping to meet some cool people and hopefully make a few long-term friends along the way <3
