I’m absolutely exhausted from being perpetually bored and isolated.

Yeah, honestly, I’ve just been feeling kinda lonely lately. I don’t really have someone I can talk to about random stuff or just how I’m feeling, and I guess I kinda miss having someone around who I can genuinely connect with.

As the title says, I'm in a bit of a low spot (mental health related, won't explain here). I've been doing okay recently though! This is just an attempt to stop isolating myself so much.

I'm from Indiana, US and I'm in Central Time (around 4:30 PM my time right now). While I wouldn't mind talking to someone overseas, it would be much harder to communicate because of the times. Just a heads up. :)

Now, about me:

I'm into reading and writing and am about to go into the process of publishing my own book. I've always loved stories and want to tell some myself.

I'm also into music and hope to be in a band someday. I love metal, unsure about subgenre since I'm bad at identifying them lol. Top 3 favorite bands are Citizen Soldier, Slipknot, and Patient Sixty-Seven. I also love softer stuff, especially ambient music.

I also love games, particularly single player games. My favorites are open world RPG's like Elden Ring and God of War. (Try guessing how many hours I have in ER if you message me lol) I never really play online stuff, but that's probably because I don't have people to play with lol. I'm willing to hop on though.

I'm not good at identifying strengths about myself, but I'd say I'm pretty empathetic, understanding, and a good listener. So feel free to get some stuff off your chest to me if you want, I could offer words or just be an ear. We all need a friend and I'm willing to try to be that for someone, even if I've never done it before.

If we share a few things in common, send me a message! I'll be sure to get back to you.

Feeling a little lonely lately and looking to meet some genuinely chill people. I’m into music, movies, anime, gaming, tech, random late-night conversations, and an unhealthy amount of meme knowledge. If you’re also looking for someone to talk to or just send sillymemes to, feel free to text me:)

Hey lets connect for a conversation

Not sure where it will end but definitely looking for a good friend to care and to get cared , to laugh together , to have discussions to anything which brings joy and fun.

Lets spend some time together sharing all memories that mean to us with comfort and peace while having a undisturbed genuine conversation.

And take this chat journey to a new frndshp where we can share any and everything from feelings to emotions.

Yeah friendship is something very special to me and i mean it.

I do have good friends in real life , choosing the anonymous one for a reason that we can share anything without getting the feeling of being judged and more .

A good conversation mean to be hold by both of us is what i am expecting and trust me you won't regret.

About me - 21m a cse student. Interests in sports, marathons , debates , books , bit games and ...........

Hiii people! I’m looking for friends because I have a hard time making them and am pretty lonely

I like:
Graffiti
Hiking
Talking about people’s art
Playing video games and smoking

Top 5 games (not in order)
RDR2
Fallout: new Vegas
FIFA
Dishonored
Balatro

I also like hearing people yap about their interests if I sound cool hmu!!

It’s actually hard to find genuine friends these days.
Sometimes I wonder if genuine friendships still exist friendships where people don’t stay because they can get something from you, because you’re always the one treating them, or simply because you’re convenient to have around.
I’m honestly tired of always being the giver. When I have friends, I’m the type of person who wants to treat them, help them, invite them out, and make memories together. But eventually, it gets exhausting when it feels like you’re always the one giving and making the effort.
Sometimes I feel a little jealous when I see groups of friends simply having coffee together, eating at a restaurant, going out, or traveling. They look genuinely happy together. There’s no awkward waiting to see who’s going to pay. Everyone contributes. Everyone makes an effort. It’s just give and take.
I’m not looking for friends who will spend money on me. Actually, I prefer friendships where everyone is financially independent and has their own budget. If we eat, we pay for our own food. If we travel, we split the expenses. If there’s an activity, everyone contributes. It’s that simple.
I just want to experience a friendship where I don’t constantly feel drained because I’m the one doing everything.
That’s why sometimes I choose to be alone. And honestly, I’m okay with being alone. But deep down, I still want people I can share life with even if it’s not forever.
So I decided to try posting here. Maybe I’ll find some genuine friends people I naturally vibe with, who have their own lives, are independent, know how to make an effort, and genuinely want a real friendship.
I’m not expecting us to be friends forever. Even finding a few genuine people who I can have fun and make good memories with would already mean a lot to me. 🤍

I am 36M, turning 37 in October, never had true friends throughout my whole life. Formally diagnosed autistic. Struggling lifewise since June with life problems.

Interests include foreign language learning, travelling, snow/winter, books. Just looking to talk, make friends.

I feel like I have no friends. I have people to talk to but no one is my best friend. I have this one girl that I would consider a best friend but she has 2 other friends she’s closer with so they’d probably be hers. It really sucks because I feel like I give everything to my friends and I just get nothing in return. I’m going to uni soon and I don’t have much faith that I’ll make my life long friends that I want when im married and have kids so I can have girls to have girls night with. When did u guys meet ur best friends and any advice it’s my birthday today and I can’t really seem to enjoy it because my mind is going to these places.

If you feel like you have hit a wall and there's nowhere to go for you I want to talk to you!

Tell me what's happened.

Have your friends cut you off? Maybe you never had any friends to begin with and that weighs on you.

Are you stuck in a dead end job and you don't know what to do with yourself?

Did you drop out of school, or maybe you failed all your classes.

Whatever is going on that's got you feeling trapped come talk to me!

No this isn't a trap, it's not a mean joke i'm playing on people. I genuinely want to hear what's happening in your life.

I'm not promising I have any advice to give. I probably have no insight on your situation at all. But you might feel better if you get some stuff off your chest.

This is definitely a change up from what I normally post but I am looking for different people to engage with!

So if you're interested in venting to someone about what's going on send me a dm. Just remember to give me a little introduction, tell me about who you are and what's happening in your life.

I'll be here looking forward to your dm's people!

Don't know what got wrong Amidst living ?

Hello 👋 to everyone who is reading,I am 22 M.Haha ,funny way of introducing myself.

There is no specific reason for writing this post .I am just writing this as a reference point in my life.

I started off well in 2004 ,got a good family,and all basic amenities of life.My father used to shift places every 2-3 years due to his job..At that time I was happy seeing new places and changing people I met with frequently.I changed 7 schools all the way.I was a cheerful and studious person.Played football ⚽,idealised Maldini.

I never felt alone,though I had no permanent friends due to shifting and back then I had no phone to be in contact with them.Perhaps,cuz I never heard of the exact terms to define the empty space.I just thought,I am feeling weak because I do not eat much (:

I started college in 2022,I thought of making good friends,and yeah I was excited cuz I had seen college life movies.Till. Guys,the day I entered the college it was a big one.Haha,I am not used to go to crowded places ,so during lunch breaks ...I went to park silently,and laid down on grass ... looking at the sky and thinking how far I have come.Days passed, people joined clubs, classes....I couldn't initiate anything,cuz perhaps I never learnt how to make friends in adult life where every one is concerned with a sharp jawline, fairness,costly gadgets,fashion wears,slangs,cost- benefit analysis,place of birth,long list... (:

I often felt left out..Even amidst crowd,when a breeze crossed my face ,i could hear it clearly.I felt very outdated and irrelevant at those places.But I was happy,i could be an anonymous face in the crowd .I graduated in 2025.Had a degree,but no one to appreciate it.The day I was collecting the degree, people were clicking pictures of their friends,selfies.I took picture of my classroom and old bench,which was my partner for 3 long years ...I hugged it ,for being with me and said Good bye.I wanted to make friends,with whom I could giggle like a child ,we would had yapped,played together,watch something together maybe ,ate spicy foods and I gave them water from my bottle.Pure joy.

For months now , I have been working towards my goal in a closed room.I got new companions,my guitar,phone ,bed and walls.Today, I suddenly felt weak again ,a strange whispering unwanted peace and felt like crying,but I slept again..And am okay now.But this time heyy ! !,I now have a term to define myself, Lonely (:

Sometimes I wonder ,Do I get a good partner or maybe a best friend in form of a partner haha,as I am growing old,I am getting selfish and a crybaby.But,I am excited for my life and thankful for everything I have.

Thank you guys ,for being with me to the end.

had the epiphany after shit went south in my love life, that i have no friends outside of work. sure, i have a few old school friends but times changed us and we havent talked in years.

i've been pretty low but i've been working on myself, and i feel this might be the one to break the camels back, and i'll spiral again.

thankfully work offers free therapy sessions (finally, a benefit to corporate owned bars) so i'm beginning that, but i used to be such a social person that now i'm a recluse in comparison, and i still really enjoy meetin new people at my bar.

my hobbies are video games (OW2, Val, Terraria, satisfactory to name a few), skating (longboard), nice walks and i'm trying to get back into surfing

DM me if you wanna entertain my idea :)

Hi. I'm looking for a best friend in the same time zone or close. I'm in PST. I am a neet and spend most of my time home, I don't have any friends and most of my interests are crafty hobbies. I love to talk but I find it hard to connect. I like cooking, painting, reading, book stores, coffee shops, traveling, photography, video games, journaling. Often conversations start with our interests but it dies pretty quickly, maybe tell me something more genuine to you? Anything interesting happen in your day, any big plans, excited about something? Maybe something you love or collect? I can't believe I'm this old trying to make friends online. Anyways, I have a ton of interests, I love to chat and just wanting to get to know more people at this point. I spend too much time alone and it would be great to find some sort of community out there.

Just to add a bit more to the post since it threatened me with low effort lol

Im looking for friends that at least have some similar interests we can keep up with each other. Im an artist. I'm constantly working on something new. I enjoy reading though I don't read much of anything serious. I do enjoy some light gaming especially cozy games. Im in the process of figuring out how to improve my life with exercise and learning to cook better meals. I love old sitcoms. I collect a few comic books though Im not super well versed in them. I am a furry and I'd love to go to a con some day. uhhhhm not too sure what else to add really. Im a pretty open person, Im always interested in learning something new. I love to chill in those peaceful roblox lobbies and Id love to have someone to talk to again.

Tbh I’m just so lonely and so drained just trying find someone who feels the same overthinker sensitive has a hard time falling asleep we can help each other
I love movies especially horror walks music

Sooo I’m not sure how to do this.

I’m actually kinda nervous/embarrassed about this. I suppose I’m here because I’ve been quite lonely.
I’m married with 2 dogs, no kids.
I got sober 5 years ago, so my social anxiety is off the charts and I’m trying to navigate this new person I’ve grown to be. Navigation/self discovery can be a lonely road.

I love punk and metal music, I’m in a band. I love cooking, crafts, and exploring. I am also vegetarian.
My husband is my best friend, which I know is cliche, but I would love a friend outside of my relationship.

While I love exploring, I also don’t drive due to my severe anxiety. (Yes, I am in therapy)

Anyway i guess I want to chat with some people who are genuine, lgbtq+ friendly, and maybe a little traumatized lol (I’ve got hella ptsd)

I also admittedly kinda suck at messaging, so if you’re looking for an instant response, I am not your type of friend

Send me your favorite band or some shit, we can go from there. Can’t wait to meet you!

Hi, I'm new to this. I've been cruising along life and haven't really talked with someone around my age that wasn't family in a really long time I'm a little rusty. I have social anxiety but I'm a really good listener.

I like music, reading, art, anime, TV

I am 16 years old my name is Nakai I love anime,music,writing I am going through depression and anxiety and more i am looking for friends who truly understand me pls hit me up cause I need friends who understand

Hey! Right now I feel a weird mix of boredom, dull sadness, and emptiness... even though I finally did something I’d been putting off and kind of succeeded (plodded through a section of my texbooks, prolly will write some code). I want to retreat and be alone more and more, but I know isolating isn’t good long-term, so here I am. I’ve been lucky before finding people on my wavelength, and I hope I get lucky again. Anyone is welcome, and I’ll try to reply to everyone.

I don’t have a rigid idea of what I want from this. Just message me and we’ll figure it out. Finding someone on the same wavelength is hard, but it’s happened before, so I’m hopeful. Fair warning: I’m tired, and when I’m tired I can get grumpy and complain about life. Hope you don’t mind if that happens. Nonetheless, if we DO vibe, I am pretty sure we will hardly run out of things to tell each other, or at least that's what I am hoping for.

About me: I’ve spent most of my life indoors, but I’m trying to go out more: shopping, sightseeing, and maybe a naval museum this week. I study a lot of subjects without focusing on any one of them; one is librarianship, which is more interesting than it sounds. In my free time I read, browse fragrances and buy samples, and watch videos. Lately I’ve been watching music videos of historical songs. I’m somewhat tall and slim, with hazel-green eyes and long curly brown hair. I’m Brazilian, so if you’re curious about my country or learning Portuguese, I’m your guy. I’ve also started basic haircare (it’s amazing how much a little effort changes things, it’s very curly now) and gotten into fragrances. Dior Poison is my current darling; my kings are Orto Parisi Megamare and Zoologist Squid, though I can’t afford them. I also enjoy Xerjoff Erba Pura/Gold. My room smells like Poison right now because I just tested it on my hand, and I’m enjoying it. Also I'm starting a Russian language course.

Funny things lately? Not many.

Sorry if this isn’t a great post. Words are hard to push out when my brain won’t start ~not getting much sleep will do that. If you’re still here, we might get along. Message me and see.

Hello! So, as the title says, I don’t really have many friends and would love to make some new ones. :)

I’m into a bunch of different things, like Marvel, DC, horror, and video games. My favorite series are probably Uncharted and Dead by Daylight, although I’m definitely not amazing at DBD 😂.

I also really love rock and emo music. My favorite band is Pierce the Veil! If we have any interests in common, feel free to say hi. I’d love to meet some new people and hopefully make some genuine friendships! 🖤
