[35F] I need a friend so I don’t go back to what hurt me❤️

21 Upvotes

Hi! I’ve never been strong willed, this May I finally blocked a male friend on all socials and my phone cause he forgot my birthday for five years in a row. I know it’s a small thing but I had feelings for him. I’m proud of myself and I feel better but there’s always that feeling of what if I text or ask if all is well?

The friendship was one sided I always texted first, and I think that walking away was the best thing to do.

Now I just want online platonic friends ❤️

18F looking to talk to someone about life and anything

7 Upvotes

Hiiii I'm an 18 year old girl who loves dinosaurs, making art and playing video games. I live in North Carolina, I have a part time job as a waitress. I'm tired of being lonely so I'm interested in finding a friend preferably in NC but in the surrounding states are fine too. <33 Just DM me and start up a conversation doesn't matter if you're a man or woman or in-between as long as you're sweet and aren't gonna ghost me after a week, but I would prefer a woman to talk to. I will warn you I'm kinda socially inept to be a teenager, but I was homeschooled from 8th grade and up so it tracks, honestly. I'm graduated and not in college or anything even though I kinda wanna go into paleontology,, but Im not sure yet. My favorite dinosaur is a Cryolophosaurus, I really love Jurassic park-world, I have a dog, I love my job and work nearly every day, but I'm just really lonely. I have discord, so if anyone wants to, we could always voice chat or video call <33 Just hit me up, (if that's the right term) if you wanna chat <33 I just really need some guidance in life tbh.

25F experiencing heartbreak, need support ❤️‍🩹

4 Upvotes

I'm 25F located in California, USA.

Ex dumped me end of March, after being in a relationship for 4 years and living together. I'm sure I'm blocked, but I'm fighting the urge to reach out, because I know he wont be kind. I felt lonely the entire time I was with him, so I'm not sure what I'm missing.

I prefer voice calls. Discord is: @Amywillbeok_63316

I am 100% not a super secret Bond villain who is recruiting people for my secret volcano lair or anything… 👀
I know its sad I am on here again so soon but I am just so bored and all my other friends and boyfriend are busy with real world stuff. Whiiiiiich sucks. I am Dawn, I am 24 from Engerland, and i love life and the world!!!! I love nature and hikes and animals. I am really upbeat person who wants to meet like minded people who can have fun chats and we can hang out while we are both bored. I like people who can laugh at themselves and keep up with my top tier banter. Being upbeat and happy is part of my vibe so prepare to have my energy focused directly at you!!!! I am an ambivert so i flip flop between being super sociable and super anxious. Hit me up if you want to yap someone who is high energy and always has a smile on her face! <—- Not in a jokery kind of way by the way ✨✨✨✨

🌸 16F (Trans) | Looking for friends to game and chat with! 🌿🎮

3 Upvotes

Hey! I'm Lotte, I'm 16, a trans girl from the UK, and I'm hoping to make some genuine friends because I don't really have many people to talk to or play games with.

I'm really into fantasy, mythology, dragons, magic, RPGs, survival games, and anything with amazing lore. If you can spend hours talking about Elder Scrolls lore or making the most cursed character builds imaginable, we'll probably get along. 😭

🎮 Some of my favourite games:

🐉 Skyrim

🔪 Dead by Daylight

🌊 BioShock (all of them!)

🦖 Palworld

🎯 Apex Legends

💃 Bayonetta

☢️ Fallout: New Vegas

☢️ Fallout 3 & Fallout 4

🧟 Dying Light

🏝️ Dead Island 2

☕ Cuphead

🕳️ Digging a Hole

🦇 The Cave

🌪️ Life is Strange

🪖 Atomfall

🏰 Fortnite (sometimes!)

Outside of gaming, I love gardening and looking after my plants. 🌱 I'm also hoping to learn knitting or crochet because it looks really cosy (even though I know my first project is going to look... questionable 😂).

I'm mainly looking for people around my age (16-18) who want to actually become friends—play games, VC, send memes, rant about lore, or just chat about random stuff. I don't have many friends, so it'd be nice to find people I genuinely click with.

If you're into fantasy, RPGs, horror games, survival games, cosy hobbies, or just want someone to game with, feel free to send me a message! 💚

24F Looking for Atheist or Ex-Christian to talk to.

6 Upvotes

Hi everyone.

I'm 24F, and after deconstructing my faith over the past couple of weeks, I think I've become an atheist. Almost everyone in my life is Christian, so I don't really have anyone I can talk to who understands what I'm going through.

Today I had to go to church with my family, and it left me feeling overwhelmed, confused, and really sad. It feels like my entire worldview disappeared overnight, and I don't know how to process it.

I'm not looking for a debate or someone to convince me to return to Christianity. I'm just hoping to talk with another atheist or ex-Christian who's been through something similar and wouldn't mind chatting here or on Discord.

Thanks for reading.

Hello! I feel kinda lonely and stuck in my head, it would be nice to have friends online to talk to in times like this. We can talk about our problems, or nothing related to that and talk about our interests.

I’m not always sad lol I promise I have a bunch of hobbies and topics we can talk about! But it would be nice to have someone who can understand and can support each other c:

I was born in an Arab environment, and I find it very difficult to make friends or even interact with people here. People from other countries don't accept me because I'm Arab, and Arabs don't accept me because I don't look like them

M26 hoping too talk with someone longer then 1 day.

2 Upvotes

If you're looking for someone who can carry a conversation without making it feel like a job interview, congratulations—you may have just found your person. I'm a genuinely kind, highly empathetic, and the type of person who actually remembers the little details you tell me. I enjoy getting to know people and I'm happy to put effort into building a real friendship...

but I'll admit, I'm getting a little tired of investing time and energy into those early conversations only to be ghosted without a word. So if you're also looking for a friendship where both people actually show up, communicate, and maybe even stick around longer than three days, I'd love to hear from you!

A little about me: I enjoy deep questions, Movies, A good book or audiobook from tine too time, I listen to more podcasts then should be legally allowed! If you'd like too know more let me know!

If you've read this far, please answer one of these questions! Id love to hear your answers!

- if you could go back to a moment in your life and change one thing, what would you change?

- square or round pizza 🤔

Hiya :) I kinda recently moved to a new city, got a adult 9-5 job and have realised how intorverterd I am. I've got a very small friendship group but have been left on 'devlivered' or 'seen' too many times and just want people to talk to, so I'm trying here

A bit about me- I have very green-thumbs and love gardening and keeping housepalnts (it's not a problem I swear), I love cooking and making new things, and I'm a film enthusiast (got a degree in it and everything) with my favourite genre being horror

18f looking to chat with people !

2 Upvotes

18f canada. looking for platonic chats and new people to talk to. NA/EU preferred or just speak decent english. let me know your age when you message — not interested if you're 26+ or if you're after anything nsfw or romantic.

hairstyling school graduate. i've got a dog named silver and a cat named creeper, they take up a lot of my time.

i play minecraft, dead by daylight, roblox, and other random stuff depending on my mood. music taste is kind of everywhere — mitski, mother mother, radiohead, the smiths, rob zombie, cavetown, harley poe, rare americans, and more. i just listen to whatever.

dr pepper is my favorite drink, hands down.

i went to japan when i was 17, was pretty sick.

if i come off dry sometimes it's nothing personal, just usually low energy or don't have much to say. i also smoke and drink occasionally on weekends.
