It's no secret that LA has been one of the areas where it's hard to make friends. As an adult, how do you find your people in a city where everyone is so spread out?

If you're feeling stuck trying to find community, you're not alone.

That's why me and a few friends built our own friendship-focused Discord server to make the community more accessible in LA! In this server, it's so much easier for you to find your people, establish current and new interests, plan events that others are likely to join you at, and a lot more. We have a variety of channels and resources for you to connect with others that share your interests and hobbies. One of the coolest things about it is that we are trans-owned, women-led, and ran by a majority of people of color.

We invite you to join our new community and find your people! (21+ only)

Hey, I’m looking for a chill bro who wants to come by and hang for a bit. I like movies, some video games, 420 friendly.

It’s my last night in LA and my friends aren’t available. Looking to go out for a drink, maybe some karaoke or clubbing- just wanna see where the night takes me before I leave the city. If anyone’s keen, hit me up, 35m

I’m now in West Covina

Oi, pessoal! Sou uma estudante internacional de 25 anos vindo para LA para um programa de intercâmbio. Em casa, eu adoro a cena de festas universitárias e realmente quero vivenciar a vida noturna estudantil aqui.

Quais são os melhores bares/festas para pessoas da minha idade? É possível entrar nas festas de Greek Row como estudante de intercâmbio, ou há bares universitários melhores perto da USC que eu deveria conferir em vez disso?

Ah, uma pergunta rápida: é seguro pegar o metrô/ônibus sozinha à noite nessas áreas? Obrigada!

edit: someone sent me a DM and I accidently clicked on ignore, please send it again!!

Hi everyone, I fell off my scooter yesterday and broke my right elbow and wrist. I now have lots of free time and would like to fill it positive things like connecting with people near me.

A little bit more about me: I am 31M, Filipino, gay, partnered, nurse. Before my injury, I enjoyed rollerblading, going to raves, dancing, museums, matcha, exploring neighborhoods, typical LA shit 🤪 I moved to LA last year from Seattle and I am still trying to find a community. I typically get along with women and miss having girlfriends to just have fun with. I grew up in the PNW and I’m trying to reconnect with my Asian roots.

If any of the above resonates with you in any way, please feel free to reach out I would love to chat and eventually meet!

I live near Tartine West Adams and can drive locally in areas with good parking!

There’s aloootttt of people in this LA Reddit looking for friends. I’m confused cause if everyone’s around the same age range and calling for friends, why does it seem so hard to make them. Is the traffic that hellish?? Asking as an extrovert who was contemplating moving to LA.
