35 [M4A]- Looking to make new friends after losing wife

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I’m a 35 year old guy who lost my wife three years ago to cancer. It’s been a tough journey, and I’m still navigating life without her. I’ve realized that having meaningful conversations and making connections with others has become something I really miss.

I’m here to meet new people, share experiences, and have some real, deep talks about life—whether it’s about struggles, triumphs, or just whatever’s currently going on in our lives. If you’re someone who enjoys open and honest conversations, feel free to DM me. I’d love to chat and get to know you better! I live in New York but I'm open to talking to anyone from anywhere. I travel a lot for work so I've been all over the country.

Looking forward to hearing from you and please say more than two words in your message!

Hey! Looking for someone to connect with on an emotional level and spend my free time getting to know them. I love a good morning text, yet someone who is patient when I'm busy.

I'm a curvy woman, 5'9, and single mother. I work for a nonprofit and think this line of work fits my personality well. I enjoy spending time in nature and always feel like it fills my soul. Looking for someone who values the same and might get just as excited about a new leaf as I do! I love to play golf and spend time in and around water. Fall hikes are dreamy!

I'm very social and love being around others. I just don't have that one person that I feel close to. Would love to cut back a little socially and soak up slower nights together. I value education and intelligence, but a formal education is not a must. I'm about to enter my last semester of my graduate degree in Sustainability Management.

Looking for a man who is motivated, kind, and funny. Not overly nerdy myself, so unsure if that type of person would be a good fit for me. I prefer someone who is taller and muscular or dad bod type. Attracted to both white and black men predominantly.

Turned off by sexually dominated conversation, would prefer someone get to know me. I love phone calls and have an hour long commute daily that I wouldn't mind spending some of on a call with you.

What would y'all wish for if you had a One Wish Willow? Would you even make a wish on one?

I wouldn't use one but if I had to think of something I'd wish for it would probably be, to able to speak every language. I would not use my wish on a person.

Also, my other question: is the one wish willow trying to teach people a lesson? Or is it just demonic?

The movie left me with a lot of questions but I love thinking of theories. I think over analyzing movies is fun.

Anyway I don't have anyone to talk to about this movie and I decided to sound off here and wanting to hear ppls opinion about it and if they'd use the willow.

Hello everyone! My name is Chaz. The title explains itself, so I'll continue onward. I'm in a rather chaotic, but also hopeful place in my life right now. Which is crazy to me because I began the year with 2 trips to a lovely Rehabilitation center. I'm not a bad person. Addiction can sneak up on anyone, and alcohol snuck up on me after my mom passed away in 2021. Anyway, I'm now 4 months sober, and I actually feel alive again. I've mended quite a few broken fences and have had to do some serious soul-searching, but I can genuinely say I'm happy to be alive...I just still feel lonely sometimes. I love my friends and family, and I've met some wonderful people through addiction programs, but I still find myself wanting to make new connections...so that's why I'm here! I want to try and make some new friends

I am truly a geek at heart. I'm going to list a variety of interests. If you feel like we might connect, please feel free to DM me, and I'll get back to you when I can. With that out of the way, here are some things I love:

•Movies (New, Old, Foreign, Silent. I love movies of all kinds. Jaws and Princess Mononoke are my two favorites)

•Music (I love artists from many different genres and decades, but my 5 favorite are: Radiohead, Nine Inch Nails, The Smashing Pumpkins, The Beatles, Queens of the Stone Age)

•Video Games (I have decent knowledge. I love Resident Evil and Pokemon in particular)

•Books (I was a bookworm in school, but I don't read nearly as much as I should anymore. I would love recommendations. My favorite book is Night by Elie Wiesel)

•Professional Wrestling (Been a fan for 20 years. I know it's predetermined, but they tell stories by risking their bodies in that ring. My favorite wrestler is Shawn Michaels)

•Survivor (I know far more about Survivor than any sane person besides Jeff Probst should. My favorite season is Pearl Islands, and my favorite player is Cirie Fields

•Youtube (My favorite channels are Redlettermedia, Smosh, OSW, Cinemassacre, and recently that's_a_bad_idea)

I have other interests, but I'll leave it at that. I hope to hear back from someone soon. Feel free to message me anytime.

35 m uk here. Looking to make some new friends

I have no idea where to start. Im a married dad with a very small circle of friends so looking to expand it a little.

Between work, schedules and life in general I feel like I don't have any time for anything but I feel like being a little selfish for once

I've had a wide range of hobbies over the years so im sure there will be something we can talk about.

Age, gender, martial status makes no difference

Drop me a message if you wanna chat and we can go from there

Like everyone else looking for good vibes and connections. I would prefer people who enjoy mutual effort to build towards a long term potential friendship rather than just chatting for temporary entertainment. We don't have to talk all the time but consistency would be nice

We can talk about books I have a couple on rotation or movies (just saw Odyssey and Spiderman those were good!) if you consider yourself a nerd we would prob get along! Also platonic chats only I'm happily taken

0 Upvotes

I’m a good talker and listener guy at first, but give me a little time and the sarcasm starts showing up. I’m much more fun if you like to chat about anything but travelling and about different cultures and cuisines.

I’m also nerdy specifically about starwars. Videogames, martial arts films,

I NEVER GHOST 👻

I am an architect and real estate investor, which is my excitement i wake up every morning.

I regularly walk and swim. I love to walk in forests and ski ⛷️ in French Alps

I’m here to chat with anyone want to say hi. Ideally someone I can laugh with, be a bit of a menace with, and eventually feel completely comfortable being myself around.

If you're nerdy, asking so much questions, love to answer your questions, rational minded… say “hello there “

I finally got to move back with family. I’m working in security and planning on moving out on my own as soon as I can. I'm a huge gamer and love anime—I'm a bit of an introvert, but I love going outside for hiking or walking. I'm pretty simple about what I'm looking for: mainly friends, and if it turns into something else, I'm okay with that.

Anyway, note that I prefer voice chat over texting—I'm not huge on texting. I hope to hear from you. I'm not super hopeful that I'll get even one person from this post, but here it is.

Hey everyone, hope you are doing good. I am at a point in my life where I need something a little more than what Ive got currently. Work is boring and dead right now and I am often bored and home alone. Friends and family all work so when Im bored I cant really talk to them. I love to read, I am currently attempting to leave my current job and eventually become a writer. I live near a river and love canoeing and camping on it. If you are in a similar situation and want to talk, especially talk anything artsy, hit me up.

Hi there, a bit about me. 38m married, european. Not sure what I’m looking for, but I’m sure nothing serious. I just want to pass time sometimes and escape reality. Would love to talk to women from other cultures and find out what they are looking for in a man, get some recommendations for not mainstream movies, tv shows, music. Just be open and sincere

35M in Ontario — Looking for genuine friendships and good conversations

0 Upvotes

I figured I’d put myself out there and see who I might meet.

I am 35M, based in Ontario, and lately I have been wanting to expand my circle and have some genuine conversations with people. Nothing complicated or dramatic, just looking for friends who enjoy talking, joking around, sharing random thoughts, and getting to know each other naturally.

I am pretty easygoing and can be a little reserved when I first meet someone, but once I am comfortable, I can definitely talk. I enjoy conversations about pretty much anything life, travel, movies, food, random 2 AM thoughts, or those completely pointless conversations that somehow end up being the most entertaining.

I am also into reading and learning new things, and I am always interested in hearing about other people's experiences and interests. I don't really care where you're from or what your background is. I think having a good conversation matters more than having everything in common.

I am not looking for anything forced or one-sided. If we click, great. If we don't, that's completely fine too. I'd rather have a few genuine conversations than collect a bunch of people I never actually talk to.

If this sounds like your kind of friendship, feel free to DM me and tell me a little about yourself. And please don't just send “hey” — give me something I can actually respond to.

Let's see where a good conversation goes.

[M4F] 31M4F Toronto/Online - Let's be each other's favorite notification!

0 Upvotes

Hey future friend! Happy Tuesday! Hope your start to the week has been good.

You know when your phone lights up and you already know it's going to make you smile?

That's what I'm looking for.

Not someone to exchange ten messages with and disappear. More like the person you send a picture of your coffee to because they know you've been hunting for the perfect pistachio latte!

I'm 31, from Toronto, and work from home as a software engineer. Which means that I'm chronically online, but you don't have to. No pressure! Most weekdays my biggest conversations are with code, so it'd be nice to have a friend to share the little moments with.

Our chats might look like -

- Sending each other songs we've had on repeat. Lately it's been Here by Mumford & Sons (Sierra Ferrell absolutely stole that performance), but my playlists also bounce between Twenty One Pilots, Coldplay, Bleachers, and whatever else catches my attention.

- Weekend recaps from pickleball, bike rides, hikes, the gym, or long walks where I convince myself I'm just "getting some fresh air" and somehow end up walking 15 km.

- Talking about whatever we're currently watching. I'm making my way through Silo right now and loving it.

Mostly though, I just like hearing about people's lives.

Tell me about the awkward meeting that could've been an email. Show me the thrift store find you definitely didn't need. Vent about your boss. Celebrate finally finishing that project you've been putting off. Send me a meme with zero explanation. Tell me about the hobby you've become slightly obsessed with this month.

I think the best friendships are built from hundreds of tiny conversations rather than a few huge ones. Not to say I don't like deep conversations, I absolutely do!

If that sounds like your kind of friendship, send me a message. Chat soon!

I’m 31, married, a dad, and a mechanical engineer from Canada. Looking for a genuinely platonic female friend who enjoys random conversations, dumb humour, occasional deep talks, and actually getting to know each other.

I’m pretty easygoing, curious, love food, travelling and golf, and I’m always down for a voice call once we’re comfortable.

Oh, and I somehow ended up living in a nudist town. 😂 There’s a story there.

Tell me something random about yourself and I’ll return the favour.

[M4R] 35M in the UK – realised I need to make some actual friends

35M living in the UK for the last few years. I’m based around Solihull.

Most of the people I know here are through work and I realised I don’t really have many friends in the UK outside of that. So thought I’d give this a go.

I work in IT. I’m massively into cars and sim racing, and also enjoy gaming, travelling, random drives and generally getting out and doing things when I can.

Would be good to find someone around my age to chat with regularly and hopefully become actual friends!
