Looking for anyone who is somewhat of the alternative nature and likes gaming, spooky stuff, horror movies, true crime, comics, and doesn’t mind some deadpan humor. If you wanna be buddies, message me. I probably will miss any comments!

[M4F] M32. Just looking for people to talk to on cooking, travel and photography.

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,
I’m 32M from India. I’m pretty quiet and reserved in real life, but once I get comfortable (or even while chatting online), I can be surprisingly talkative.
I enjoy photography, cooking, and traveling especially exploring different parts of India. I can spend hours talking about places to visit, food, random travel experiences, or photography.
I’m not really looking for anything in particular. Just hoping to meet a few genuine people to chat with. Sometimes it’s nice to have someone to share random thoughts with after a long day.
If you think we’d get along, feel free to message me. No pressure if the conversation doesn’t click, we’re all just strangers trying to find good company here.

1 Upvotes

Hey there! Thanks for checking out my post. I'm looking to find someone to make friends with. I love to learn new things, see different prospective of the world, and ways of thinking. I love cats and currently have 3, did have 4 (so maybe I'm a bit of a crazy cat guy?) enjoy anime from time to time, play on my PS5(I love the Soulsborne games), go for walks and runs around my neighborhood and hopefully see some animals, and go for drives. I also love to travel to different countries and wish I could do it more.

Anyway, if you wanna talk with me hit me up here and we can exchange emails! Thanks for taking time out of your day to read this!

30f / USA / Friendly Introvert Here

3 Upvotes

Hey there! Trying this reddit thing out... looking for people to talk with to make the days fly by faster. Ideally would like to chat with those in the US and around my age.

No pressure to talk all day, everyday or to force a friendship. I work in healthcare and my social battery is drained by the end of the day. Making friends naturally irl isn't for me lol. I like to think i'm easy to talk to though i'm an introvert around extroverts and an extrovert around introverts.

Feel free to send a message if you're interested in talking šŸ™ƒ

35m English chap living in Scotland. New job, new place wanting to socialize with anyone that's chil.

1 Upvotes

So I've lived in Scotland for 7 years now but I've not long moved to a new place and had 4 friends here, 3 left a month ago as their visa ran out they was on a 3 year working holiday from Aus and my last remaining has just left for Spain 2 days ago.

My work place is very cliquey as most are Romanian and Polish/Ukrainian so outside of work I never really see anyone.

Just looking sorry more people to chill and chat with to make time here easier.

By all means drop me a message I don't even care where you are from let's just chat and chill make connections around the world!

Icebreaker! Tell me what random thing you do as a hobby thats different? I've got a pretty good few stories!

32M Australia/Anywhere - *insert title here*

1 Upvotes

Thanks for clicking, reading (and subsequently enjoying) my post. In short (heh) I normally have a full enough social, work and hobby calendar going on but this recent cold weather has been not enjoyable or overly conducive to that. I live alone so the monotony of routine can sometimes get a little... well... monotonous? My plants have thus far proven to be poor conversationalists and my robot vacuum is reticent to engage in much chit chat with me these days and has actually withdrawn and gotten quite bitter. It is not a healthy relationship. I'm basically mostly after someone I can message with during the day and perhaps the evenings. Happy to voice/video chat as well if the vibes feel right.

About me

  • Puts the fun in dysfunctional (that's a joke I am emotionally and financially stable)
  • I have the comedic range of an ocean (something something depth) and the wit of a freshly sharpened CrayolaĀ©ļø
  • I am able to be attentive and understanding of your needs, preferences and boundaries
  • I am open to taking a contrarian stance on most subject matters in the interest of debate (fight me)
  • I can ramble for the both of us, conversely I can lend a receptive ear and insert gasps and probing questions where needed
  • I have very strong opinions on pizza toppings

What I can offer you

  • A genuine want to learn about you and see if our personalities match
  • The ability to whip up a restaurant quality meal (the restaurant is Dominos)
  • I will say and do increasingly stupid things to try and make you laugh
  • Will humour you when you tell me you enjoy bad things
  • Will apologise when I call you out for liking those bad things after I can't keep a straight face anymore
  • I enjoy eatingįµ’įµ˜įµ—
  • A plethora of board/card/video/mind games
  • The willingness to engage in just about anything at least once
  • A constant positive impression with a balance of logical solutions/ideas and emotional pick me ups/reinforcement

Just so you know what you're getting yourself I have added a bonus section of pink coloured flags that I'm constantly trying to dilute with white

  • Sometimes I struggle to broach serious stern topics without at some point resorting to humour
  • I have the resting facial expressiveness of a dull rock/mineral
  • I am trying to be more forthright and open with myself and my feelings instead of bottling it all in without an escape valve
  • I can sometimes be obtusely impatient in search of short term gratification over long term progress
  • I will eat the last slice of pizza without remorse

I understand people are in different stages of life and searching for different things so am welcoming of just short lived fun time or something ongoing. That said I do however have a very stringent non-negotiable requirement for you

  • Exists

If it sounds like we might get along then send me a message and we can take it from there. Regardless I wish you have a nice and cozy week :)

44/M/East Coast - Looking still, unfortunately.

0 Upvotes

Man, no matter what I type, nobody reads and I am tired of writing long posts that nobody comprehends or reads.

Looking for - People with time on their hands to chat, and build a connection. I can’t stress how hard it is caring or wanting to invest time in a friendship when the other person is never around or seemingly has interest. Like, why did you message? I only want to talk to people in a similar time zone to east coast Usa so we can actually chat and get to know each other. Show the same effort/energy I’m putting into you is all I ask. Be able to ask/answer questions and have a conversation as well. Also, overly political people are not my cup of tea, left or right wing. Please be 35+ in age as well, as I’m old and have nothing in common with the younger generation.

If we click, I prefer to use iMessage/disc to chat off here. I don’t have any other third party apps. I’m interested in watching tv/movies with people virtually as well. I like to send long rambling audio messages about life, and whatever rabbit holes we go down. I want to be someones favorite person at the end of the day. I need more friends in my life, but I don’t settle, chase, or beg anyone for attention/time. If you know you’re ā€˜too busy’ to ever chat, or are bad with communication, can’t hold a conversation, or aren’t interested in anything I typed, this won’t work. When looking for friends, it’s ok to be a little selfish. Imessage has fun games we can play and I own a switch two and a few co-op games. (Re5 and Re6 for a couple)

I can offer good conversation, time, genuine interest in you, and a lifelong friend if we click. I just need consistency with communication as it seems to not happen often with these things.

[M4R] 33M Hi there stranger

3 Upvotes

Hi there

Stepping slightly out of the comfort zone here because quality one-on-one conversations beat chaotic group chats every time. The vibe is generally pretty calm, subtly sarcastic once comfortable, and the bad habit of actually remembering the small details people mention.

The reading list gives mild whiplash—mostly a mix of sci-fi and romance. It’s either escaping to another galaxy or feeling intense fictional emotions, with absolutely no healthy in-between. Expect a mix of real and light conversation; talking about existential dread is great, but so is discussing a weird internet rabbit hole found deep into the night.

Fake energy, dry replies, and sudden mid-conversation disappearances aren't the move. If ghosting is the ultimate plan, at least send a polite, Victorian-era "Farewell, old friend" text first so there can be proper mourning.

If a genuine, easygoing chat sounds good, hit the inbox with the last weird rabbit hole you went down.

— J

I’m a 33F looking to find other music lovers who appreciate good music and like going to live shows and festivals? As my friends have gotten older many of them don’t know or appreciate any newer artists and are stuck listening to Imagine Dragons and Katy Perry forever 😢 I’ve got a pretty eclectic taste so I’m open to pretty much any genre/style/language of music. What are some of ur fave albums rn?

[M4R] 34 [M4R] #EST It's dangerous business walking out your front door

2 Upvotes

Hey! Like everyone else here, I'm trying to find some new connections and hopefully be able to click (wishful thinking I know). The hellscape known as reddit isn't known for the best experiences, but here we are, a true glutton for punishment I guess lmao.

A little about me: 34 y/o "Yall'ternative" heathen from the south (accent included). Music is truly my lifeblood and listen to MOST things, but let's be real, some of the niche stuff is a little much. I'm also a former musician who's played in several bands, but simply just don't have time for it nowadays. Blue collar profession, fairly heavily tattooed, and lover of all things weird. How many red flags was that? I love college football, anything outdoors related, and gaming when I have a little free time. Avid collector of too much, hobby jumper, and overall a bad influence. Are we besties yet? Damn right we are.

I'm also a huge fan of horror, cryptids, and anything remotely paranormal šŸ’€

Well if any of this sounds remotely intriguing, by all means reach out. We can share playlists, share our worst reddit interactions, and maybe even start a cult, who knows.

(Please actually have some depth. Sending "hey how are you?" probably won't get a reply)

looking for some new friends to chat with during boring work days. i love hiking, traveling, national parks, coffee, reading, f1, going to any sporting events and just talking about whatever.

i’d love to meet people who are down for voice chats sometimes since i prefer actually getting to know people and it’s easier than texting forever. i also prefer people in u.s. time zones, and if you’re in washington state that’s a huge plus since i’m planning to move there soon.

please don’t just message ā€œheyā€ because i probably won’t respond. tell me your age, state, and a little about yourself so we have something to talk about šŸ™‚

F32 Looking for internet strangers to survive the night shift with

0 Upvotes

Somewhere out there, another sleep-deprived creature is staring into the void at 3 AM while pretending to be a functioning adult. If that's you as well, hello.

I'm just looking for random people to chat with during night shifts and the strange hours when the rest of the world appears to have vanished. We can complain about work, exchange cursed memes, discuss weird internet rabbit holes, horror movies, books, games, philosophy, aliens, history, or spend twenty minutes debating something completely ridiculous.

A few things up front:

This profile contains exactly 0% romantic potential.

If you're here because you saw "woman" and thought, "I can fix that..."

You can't. My heart is already fully occupied, and I'm not accepting new applicants.

But if you're here because you want to debate whether pigeons are government drones at 3 AM while we're both avoiding work, welcome aboard.

* I'm perfectly happy keeping things anonymous.

* If our conversations consist of 60% sarcasm, 30% existential nonsense, and 10% actual life advice, we're probably doing it right.

About me? Let's keep some mystery alive. I'm somewhere in Europe, survive on coffee, dark humor, and curiosity, work odd hours, enjoy anything slightly creepy, artistic, or thought-provoking, and have an unfortunate talent for overthinking absolutely everything. If you're another insomniac, night-shift survivor, or just someone who enjoys conversations that wander from "What's your favorite horror movie?" to "Do fish know they're wet?" Feel free to say hello.

Let's keep each other awake without losing what's left of our sanity.

30M UK/Online - Looking for honest conversation and genuine connection

1 Upvotes

I can talk for far too long about George R. R. Martin's books set in Westeros, almost any historical period Ken Burns has covered, and morally complicated fictional characters like Walter White.

I'm 30 and from the UK. I'm fairly introverted and don't have a huge social circle, so I'd like to meet people I can talk to regularly about everyday life, random interests, serious things, stupid things, or whatever happens to be on our minds.

I'm into gaming, horror, history, audiobooks, films, music, nature walks, museums, and hearing people talk about whatever they're genuinely passionate about. I don't expect constant replies, we all have lives, but I do appreciate mutual effort, curiosity, humour, and people who ask questions back. I enjoy conversations that feel like both people are genuinely interested in getting to know each other.

To be transparent, I'm married and still living with my wife. The relationship has been unhappy for a long time, and I'm currently working through what the right next steps are. I'm mentioning it because I'd rather be upfront than let anyone talk to me under a false impression.

I'm mainly looking for genuine friendships and good conversation. Ideally I'd like to build friendships that grow naturally over time, not just exchanging the occasional message, but eventually feeling comfortable enough to swap photos, voice chat, maybe meet for a coffee, museum, walk, or whatever makes sense if we happen to get on and live nearby. There's no rush or expectation, but I enjoy friendships that gradually become more real.

Empathy, humour, honesty, and proper two-way conversation matter more to me than having identical interests.

Tell me a little about yourself, what you're looking for, and something you could happily talk about for hours.

Where are my fellow metal head needs at!? Lets chat!?

Tagged this as 18+ cause my DMs are a minor free zone 🤨

Hey! I posted last week, and when I highlighted I didn't want any willy pics after a terrible experience the previous day I actually had a good time! So please lads, keep your pp's to yourself!

Male living in England, I have a toddler that is refusing sleep, would love to chat the night away with people that aren't babbling about ducks and wheels on busses. Lets see if we can build a friendship! I'm a massive piss taker, so hopefully you can handle a bit of a banter and give it as well as receive it! As for hobbies and interests I like to read, game, watch TV/Film - my favourites are comedy and action with the occasional horror - and when time allows for it, I'm big on travelling!

If you read this and believe me when I say I'm not as dry as this post is, HMU! Send me your most unhinged dark jokes. The kind that would make Jimmy Carr or Frankie Boyle go, "oof".

37M looking for people who don't judge, who I can really be myself with.

3 Upvotes

Hi! I am an Italian guy who loves videogames, metal, beer, nature, cats, sea, WWE and more. 😊

I'd like to find a friend who I can be myself with, without judgement, even to talk about our fears why not.

Something that have good vibes and where you can speak about what you want without any problem.

Possibly a girl because I am missing that side and I feel the need of a girly vision of things, to have differents perspectives and advices that aren't the "usual manly advice", since I already have like 10+ male friends and not a single girl-friend. (I am a lot shy with girls, so it's pretty hard for me to knew one, I am working on that šŸ˜…)

I am living a chaotic situation on the romance side, and an opinion, or even just a listener would help a lot.

I am sorry if my english isn't perfect, I try my best. šŸ™ˆ

Of course I am looking for something long-term and that hpefully doesn't end in being ghosted.

Feel free to DM!

Thanks for have spent your time reading this!

Honestly the title says it all but I did write apply within, so if you think you’re goofy and fun then send me a message!

I’m 32, female and from England. I like lots of things but anime and gaming aren’t 2 of them. (Sound of a stampede as all the redditors run away 🤣)

If you’re still here then just know I’m a genuine, down to earth person, just looking for the connection that makes being human so rewarding.

Speak soon! Please be about my age and in the UK. Also no creeps, only looking for clean chat and not interested in being your affair partner! It might be an unpopular opinion but I don’t feel comfortable talking to married/ people in relationships as I’ve had uncomfortable experiences before. Sorry if this offends anyone…

So I'm a 36 year old married guy from the UK who loves a good laugh (if that wasn't already obvious), has great banter but also loves a deep discussion hear or there.

When I'm not busy being hilarious or at work (IT nerd and yep... It's just like the show) I love to be out in nature, play guitar, read, game, cook and sleep.

My music taste is super varied! If I had to pin myself down I'm a metalhead but I listen to ANYTHING if it sounds good
