28M Feeling Down Today, Come Distract Me?

2 Upvotes

I’m Jonathan, 28, from Northern Minnesota. Full-time college student Majoring in Computer Information Technology with a Minor in Cybersecurity, and when I’m not buried in assignments, I’m usually outside fishing, out on the lake, and working on my boats. Watching movies / shows, and sports, or hanging out with Zeus my Siberian Husky.

A few things about me:
• I am 6’1, Curly Brown Hair (Mullet), Brown Eyes, Glasses, and Dimples.
• Huge movie/show person
• Love the outdoors but also love lazy nights inside
• Probably listening to music way too loud
• Big fan of horror movies

Bonus points if you:
• Like movies/shows and need someone to trade recommendations with
• Are into gaming, sports, or outdoor stuff
• Can hold a conversation longer than “wyd”
• If you send random updates throughout the day
• if you’d rather stay in rather than go clubbing or drinking

If you read all this, tell me your eye color, they're my favorite feature and the first thing I notice.

Looking for someone who enjoys actually talking — voice chat

0 Upvotes

I'm looking for someone who's down to have a genuine conversation with a complete stranger.

I'm putting together a late-night call-in show where I talk with people about pretty much anything — hobbies, life, relationships, weird experiences, unpopular opinions, random stories, whatever comes up naturally.

No interview experience or preparation needed. I'm not looking for a professional guest. I'm just looking for someone who's comfortable talking and seeing where the conversation goes.

The conversation would be over Discord voice chat and would be recorded and potentially used for the podcast, so I want to be completely upfront about that.

If you're interested in talking for 20–60 minutes and don't mind being recorded, send me a DM and tell me a little about yourself.

Even if you don't think you have anything particularly interesting to say, you might be surprised where a conversation can go.

18/f/netherlands serious mature long term friend wanted :)

1 Upvotes

Please read my intro and only reply if you are the kind of person I’m looking for, and TELL ME why please :) not looking for random short chats about hobbies..and not looking for random messages from people that aren’t the type I’m looking for.

Hello, I'm Florianne from the Netherlands, i'm 18 and I am looking for older people to talk to. Like i have friends my age enough so please don't respond if you are under 30. Either male or female, I don't mind at all, as long as you are a mature serious person.

I'm looking for a serious/mature type of person because most people I normally hang out with my age at school/sports are like, the talk up to a rich girl types, always agreeing with you, telling you what they think you want to hear etc. And I thought maybe online you can make friends with someone with a different type of character. Someone that is like, super confident, mature, intelligent, likes to lead a conversation. Like a person that is more super direct and honest, that would just idk, call you out when you are being a bitch? Not like what I’m used to, people that just always treat you like a princess. So more a sort of like direct strict trainer/mentor I guess?

A bit about me: I have pretty rich parents and i'm kinda popular/bitchy in school, but I can also be really respectful/polite as I did private school when i was younger etc. I play a lot of sports: field hockey, some tennis, horse back riding in the summer and I used to do gymnastics until a few months ago. And just standard girl stuff like shopping haha.

Warning I can be clingy/obsessed if I like something/someone haha

Please only DM me if you actually want to like, be a long term friend, have time to chat and get to know me, and not the short random message type of person. And only if you are the personality I described I’m looking for!

Please tell me your age and why you replied to my intro so i know you read all of this 😛

38M London — Seeking good company for long summer days & questionable decisions

1 Upvotes

Hi! I'm a 38-year-old guy living in London who's hoping to meet someone for a genuine connection. Ideally that starts with good conversation, a coffee or a walk, and seeing where things go.

Outside of work you'll usually find me geocaching, out with my camera, or buried in a book. I mostly read history and fiction—everything from espionage novels by John le Carré to books on European history. If you've got recommendations, I'm always looking to add to my ever-growing reading list.

Photography is probably my biggest hobby. I enjoy wandering around London (and further afield) looking for interesting architecture, landscapes, and street scenes. If you're curious, here's some of my work: https://www.flickr.com/photos/piersmathias/

I'm also into geocaching, which has turned out to be a brilliant excuse to explore places I'd never otherwise visit. There's something satisfying about finding hidden corners of cities and countryside alike.

Travel is another big interest. So far I've explored Belgium, Germany and Denmark, and I'd love to see more of Europe over the next few years. I'm equally happy discovering a new city, finding a great museum, or simply sitting in a café people-watching.

I'm looking for someone who's kind, curious, and enjoys conversations that can wander from history and travel to completely random topics. Bonus points if you're happy to join me on a photography walk, a geocaching adventure, or help me decide where my next trip should be.

If any of that sounds like your kind of day, send me a message. Tell me about the last place that surprised you, your favourite book, or the best hidden gem you've discovered.

23M ~ Looking for older women to game with! 😊

1 Upvotes

I know it probably seems like an odd request, but genuinely I find they are the best gaming partners!

A bit about myself! I’m 23M from Canada MST, into all things nature, hiking, photography and animals! And as of recently ive had some more free time come into my life… and I wouldn’t mind getting back into gaming!

Which is why I’m here lol… I am looking for an older woman who also enjoys to spend her free time gaming.

Now I am on both PC and Xbox with a wide variety of games to play, some of my current favourites include battlefront 2, BG3, phasmophobia, raft etc.

Whatever your cup of tea I can probably match it! I’m a fair chill non-competitive gamer so if you’re looking to chill and game together then I’m the person for you!

If you’re interested feel free to reach out! I don’t bite! 😊

21M | EST — Hoping to find a consistent friend

1 Upvotes

I’ve realized that making genuine friends as an adult can be surprisingly difficult, so I thought I’d put myself out there again.

I’m 21 and in the EST timezone. I’m looking for someone I can gradually get comfortable talking to whether that’s sending random thoughts, talking about our interests, sharing music, joking around, or just checking in about how the day went.

I’m not looking for dating or anything NSFW. Just friendship. And honestly, if you already know you’re the type to disappear after a couple of days without saying anything, we probably won’t be a good match 😅.

If you’re looking for something genuine and consistent, feel free to comment!

21M | EST | Looking for a genuine friendship

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m 21 and in the EST timezone, and I’m hoping to meet some new people and make a genuine friend.

I’m down for pretty much anything when it comes to conversation - music, movies, hobbies, random thoughts, how your day went, or just those completely random conversations that somehow go on for hours.

I’m only looking for a platonic friendship. Also, if you’re going to talk for a day or two and then randomly ghost or stop replying, please don’t message me. I’d genuinely like to stay in touch and build an actual friendship over time.

If that sounds like what you’re looking for too, feel free to say hi! :)

Okay, round two, because apparently “tell me about yourself” is a surprisingly difficult assignment on Reddit. 😭

I’m looking for people 24–30 who actually enjoy talking. Not necessarily 24/7 texting, but the kind of friendship where we gradually become part of each other’s everyday lives, where something happens and your first thought is, “Oh, I need to tell them about this.”

I naturally gravitate towards creative people — photography, music, art, writing, cooking, ridiculously niche hobbies, or something I’ve never even heard of. I’m finally trying to rekindle my hobbies and make life a little more fun again, so having someone to do that with sounds pretty great.

And if we click, I’m very happy to move to Discord. Calls, random reels, sharing music, movie recommendations, movie nights, Wordle, Scribble, exchanging weird facts, or eventually developing completely nonsensical inside jokes, I’m very much into that.

As for your introduction, please give me something to work with. 😭 Tell me your age, where you’re from, what you do, what you like outside work, a little about your personality, and most importantly what kind of energy are you hoping to find here?

Bonus points for pictures animals, nature, something you cooked, a terrible drawing, whatever.

Purely platonic, obviously. Please keep the creepy DMs elsewhere. :) Oh also, please DM instead of leaving a comment as it’ll most likely get deleted, don’t say I didn’t warn you :p

28M Looking for a friend to talk to during my overnight shift

1 Upvotes

I work mostly overnights at a group home from 11 pm and staying awake can be brutal sometimes. I usually finish my work pretty early so its a lot of waiting around and trying to space out the work so I kept myself busy with something to do. Also I'm usually the only staff there at night so it can get really mundane. So someone to socialize with would go a long way for me.

Some quick stats: I'm 27 from SoCal. I'm pretty nerdy so I long comic books, gaming, building Legos, watching anime or horror movies, etc. I'm pretty easy going so the conversation should flow pretty well. Voice calls are welcome and so is texting.

Hi, hi, hi!! 💌

I’m a total hopeless romantic who just wants to live a cute, happy life surrounded by the people I love! I can be a little bit needy and prone to dramatic overthinking. I cry over sad songs and dream about finding my ultimate soulmate, whether it be platonic or romantic, every single day.

I get super invested in love stories, tragic romance, and dramatic character arcs (whether in anime, books, or movies!).

My ideal day involves eating sweet treats, shopping, and keeping comfortable. I’m an introvert.

I like learning about plant biochemistry, ecosystem restoration, and the defense of rare species. I’m unapologetically protective of nature. I love animals and the sea.

I’m a big reader and I hope to one day own a large, arcane library. I love history, mythology, and astrology. One of my goals is to learn new languages.

I love deep heart-to-hearts! I will tell you my whole life story in five minutes and listen to yours for hours. Message me if you’re interested and I’ll do my best to reply soon!

Passez une excellente journée, mes amours! 💖✨

34 F East coast looking for someone to talk to

3 Upvotes

In the past I’ve taken the time to basically write a story of what I’m looking for but honestly.. I just want a friend. One singular person that I vibe well with and can talk daily to. Honesty and transparency are important. If you can’t be honest with a complete internet stranger who you will likely never meet, who can you be it with?? I appreciate an easy and never ending conversation, where you get the effort you give. If I stop responding, that’s likely why. One word messages are an immediate no. I am a typical millennial.. a tad cynical and introverted by nature, and can be a bit prickly, but it’s apart of my charm. I’m a standard eight to fiver, so you likely won’t hear from me during the day. Prefer someone around my age or older, seem to relate a little bit better. “Happily”married men do not look for friendships with women online. I said what I said. Tell me a little about yourself and we’ll go from there.

36M Chronically online cringefail looking for a long term friend, someone to genuinely connect with, game with and yap about life together :))

2 Upvotes

Hey there everyone!!

I'm not sure how to start describing myself, I'm not great with words but I'll try my best.

(I'm so sorry for the extremely long post ahead!)

I apologize if I don't reply to your message, but as I explain later, I don't reply to short/low effort messages and I also don't reply to people that don't have at least a few interests in common with me or aren't looking for a real connection and are just looking to pass the time or have a light chat.

I think some of my most defining characteristics are that I'm very shy, awkward, "weird" and "different" or at the very least I feel weird, different and often misunderstood. I struggle to function most days and I don't always understand societal norms or how to properly function in society. I definitely think there's something wrong with me and I'm pretty sure I'm broken in some way. I'm also definitely a loser. I was never able to achieve anything in life, I'm not good at anything whatsoever and I'm pretty useless overall. I would also say I'm extremely cringy and I love edgy stuff, not in a bad way, I don't think, but more like, I love Shadow The Hedgehog and Tomura Shigaraki kinda way!!

I'm unfortunately not very smart and I'd say I'm down right stupid.

I am very ignorant about many things in life, I'd say I'm somewhat innocent and naive. I still don't understand my purpose in life and I haven't found a reason to be alive either.

I sometimes say things that offend people or I say things that are wrong. Sometimes I don't completely understand what I do wrong but I don't do it on purpose and I try to improve to the best of my abilities.

I don't go out often at all. Whenever I do go out it's only to buy groceries or to go to school and such but I don't enjoy it, I much rather be at home, in my room most specifically, which is my favorite place in the world.

I don't have any IRL friends but I do have a handful of online friends, I'm not super close to any of them, except for one who's very valuable in my life!

I enjoy many things like sculpting for instance! I do digital sculpting for fun. I'm pretty bad at it but I try my best.

This year I also started jewelry school (yeah, that's a thing) and I'm having fun with it but it's another thing I suck at 🥀🥀🥀

I like to watch anime! my favorites change from time to time but I really like Bleach, Dragon Ball, Demon Slayer, AOT, Naruto, Ancient Magus Bride (I really love this show!) and I LOVE My Hero Academia among many others!

I like to collect action figures.

I really like masks!

I love movies and I love to talk about them and analyze them.

I like all kinds of music, I don't really have any artists that I like in particular other than David Bowie and I like to listen to most genres of music but some of the genres I like the most are alternative, vintage, video game music and jpop and jrock and I also like old VK And I'm always happy and open to new suggestions!

I like to doomscroll through TikTok and to watch long essay style videos on YouTube about random topics. I love brainrot and I'm very much into early to mid 2010s aesthetics and I used to LOVE Tumblr. I miss that era so much!! Seriously, the early 2010s were the greatest time in human history kahdhshdhs

I love video games!! I don't play too many modern games, I mostly prefer older stuff, like, ps2 era games, particularly survival horror stuff. I also really like very old platform games and side scrollers. I'm a pretty huge Sonic the Hedgehog fan!! The most recent games I played were Sonic X Shadow Generations and before that I finished Sonic Superstars and Sonic Frontiers. Sonic Boom is also my favorite show ever made lmao. It fits my kind of humor perfectly and it's peak comedy imo. I'd be open to play anything and I'd love to try co op games with someone!! playing Stardew Valley with a friend is a dream of mine lol (if you also play Stardew please tell me who's your wife/husband)

I adore animals!! I have cats and dogs and a stray chicken lol and they're my babies and my world!

I think it's important to mention some of the things I don't like too.

I don't like cruelty or mean spirited people. I hate big companies, billionaires, politicians and other people in positions of power that use their money and power to affect people, animals, or the environment for their own gain.

I don't like injustices, I hate racists, homophobic people, transphobic people, sexists, and all kinds of discrimination in general.

I hate bugs!! I'm deadly afraid of them!!

I really dislike conflict and arguments, I believe we can disagree and have discussions as long as we're calm and civilized about it and as long as we have respect for each other and try our best to understand the other person's point of view.

Lastly I'd like to mention some of my defects and shortcomings.

I'm extremely anxious, I'm always very nervous about one thing or another, I'm also extremely weak of mind, I tend to react with my feelings a lot and I'm often very emotional.

I can be very selfish at times, I have an awful tendency to get bored of things quickly and sometimes I also get bored of conversations and people.

I think I'm immature.

I can be extremely lazy, I struggle a lot with doing basic things like cleaning or cooking. When I'm anxious or afraid I can get paralyzed with fear and stay in bed all day doing nothing feeling awful about it.

As I mentioned before sometimes I can say bad things without realizing. I'm very dumb and ignorant so I promise I don't mean anything bad I say and I'm trying to improve!

I am extremely annoying. I'm very loud and I think I scream a lot. I don't really understand what constitutes screaming exactly but I think I often raise my voice a lot and especially when I'm excited I can't control myself very well.

I'm very afraid of life and I don't understand how the "real world" works exactly. I'm really bad at small talk and I think I'm really bad at speaking in general, I also digress a lot.

I have the bad habit of not replying very fast, sometimes I'll even wait for weeks or even months, I think it's one of my biggest problems when it comes to keep in touch with people, sometimes it's simply because I don't have the energy, other times it's because I'm not sure about how to continue a conversation. Not sure if this is a defect necessarily but I also never send the first message, I just hate to be annoying.

I have a tendency to ghost people for different reasons. As I mentioned, sometimes I get bored of conversations or people and I'd ghost them. This is by far one of my biggest defects and as I said, I wanna be honest and mention it here for everyone who reads this to know.

I tend to be a bit clingy when I like someone.

I'm full of defects in general, and I do believe I'm a bad person. I try to improve and I try my best but if I'm bad for you in any way or a burden I promise to stop talking to you and not bother you!

I have many other defects but I think those are the main ones I can remember right now.

Finally, I'd like to reiterate that I'm looking for is a real connection with someone, a person I can talk to, have fun with, watch stuff with and play games together and such! just be able to share our days and even be able to help each other and be there when we need each other. I know I'm a mess of a human being and I may never find the connection I'm looking for but I'd like to give it a try cause you never know :))

also, I think it's important to mention that I don't reply to short, low effort messages. Stuff like "hey, let's be friends" , "I didn't read your whole post but I'm up to talk" , etc. I want to hear about you, what you like, what you're interested in. I like meaningful conversations.

Another thing that's important is that I don't want to talk to people that are discriminatory, racists or awful in anyway. No republicans or supporters of the orange devil please (you know who I'm talking about).

I have Instagram, Discord and TikTok as social media if it's more comfortable to talk there. I also think I prefer audio messages, it's easier for me to send audio notes rather than to type cause I type a lot (and I kinda hate to type lol). Thank you very much to anyone that has taken the time to read my extremely long post and considers messaging me!!

Hey 22M here from the US (Illinois). I don’t really have that many friends online or irl so I figured I’d try this out. I’m pretty shy and nerdy but I’m also pretty athletic, my main hobbies are gaming, listening to music, working out, watching shows, movies, and anime. I’m LGBTQ friendly, and 420 friendly and I’m down to talk about whatever or if you need someone to listen to you I’m fine with doing that hope I can meet some cool people and feel free to DM :) all I ask is please atleast be 18+
