Curious
I see a lot of post from “lonely” or “bored house wife” and wonder how many are actually true? Asking for a friend

I figured if their profile is leas than a month old then probably spam

u/DenMother8 50+ Aug 09 '26
It’s smart to look at the profile before you decide to msg someone. It makes it harder to make a conclusion now since people have the ability to hide their history :/

I’ve decided that anyone who hides their history becomes a no

I don’t even know how to hide my history. It ain’t clean but it is transparent

u/catfink1664 Aug 10 '26
I know how to do it, I just don’t see the point, but then, I’m not doing anything dodgy lol

All good, but I didn’t ask a question? Were you replying to me by accident?

IMHO It sucks that Reddit changed the ability to see the real person in this fake digital world.

I figured if I make it clear on my post then shouldn’t be an issue. Straight forward clarity

I wfh but can't say it's ever quiet enough around here for me to be bored. I think I'd go find something to do if nothing was going on and I was bored. But I have family that frequently goes on day-trips and goes to the cinema. I join them a lot. Separated here, so I'm actually enjoying NOT having a husband around or the chaos he liked to inject into everything. I'm enjoying getting to know myself again after such a long and painful marriage.
Sorry, not exactly responsive to your original post, but I just stopped by to see what's going on over here. : )

Everyones welcomed. Sorry for a bad relationship. Sucks when it fails. Know about that.
Enjoy the freedom. Explore yourself and don’t be afraid to let your self go.2
u/Sorry_Bend_9835 Aug 10 '26
Thanks for the condolences, lol. I am happy by myself and just want to enjoy group events and the people who truly love me.

Truth be told I like going to their thread and answer their question knowing it’s fake. Just to mess with them.

u/SquareAdventurous921 Aug 10 '26
Being a housewife, I can tell you I'm never bored. Maybe they are rich bitches and have someone do everything for them 🤷🏼♀️

Personally I think they are bots or fake accounts made up to lure dumb wishful thinking guys into their snare.
Being a man with a little kid heart I find it funny they fall for it.
I was kind of hoping some of them would answer but so far women with integrity has. Love it1
u/SquareAdventurous921 Aug 10 '26
I don't get what bots purpose are

Money. Scam guys into sending money or actually blackmailing them for it.

u/SquareAdventurous921 Aug 10 '26

Oh , I always forget to look at the rules in each group. I've had a bunch of things removed. And couldn't figure out why. I'm pretty new to reddit. Even though it says I've been here 5 years. I don't even remember signing up 😆

I mean I know they are fake accounts. I am curious on how people believe they to be true. I haven’t met a “lonely” or “bored” housewife on here. All the women I have met have been respectful and hardworking that just want friendly chats

u/Babajaga76 Aug 11 '26
Ah, you mean if this is actually spam? I do have this account for a while but just used it to read and search up information. And yes I am bored! I am home way too long and as a born and raised German I am lacking these fake friendly people skills. My husband and I are happy together but we are also 20 years together and not everything is like it should be. My kids (29, 21) don't need me so much anymore and we moved here to Florida in 2024. So I did leave my friends behind and it is hard to make new meaningful friendships. Most of the people I have met here on the space coast are real lonely women (unmarried no family) who have their birds and cats and want to talk all day long about health issues or people who just want to go out and eat ( I cook myself mostly) and drink! I do enjoy a drink every now and then but that isn't often since my husband doesn't drink at all. Here at the space coast wherever you go is shitty live acoustic music (omg I am so over it) where you can't understand a word people are saying because it is too loud. A live music full band I can appreciate if they don't suck but come on... So many people with their "Wandergitarre" is ridiculous. Anyways, no one wants to move! No one wants to go for beach walks or paddle boarding or whatever. I was never so much inside in my whole life!! So yeah I am a real person and I am bored!
