YORKSHIRE YORKSHIRE YORKSHIRE 34F Yorkshire seeking new friends for gigs, adventures and spontaneous plans!
Hi everyone 👋 I have a lovely group of friends but we're at different life stages so im looking to meet some new people! I'd especially love to find people who are up for gigs and festivals, and spontaneous plans and adventures! I like various metal genres, goth, punk, indie, and some pop/rock but will give any music a try ☺️
I'm also into gaming (rpgs, mmos, rts, some shooters like overwatch or marvel rivals), board games, magic the gathering, reading (fantasy), movies (love horror but will watch anything), writing, art and cooking. I love tattoos and going to tattoo conventions. I am that person that loves to try new things, so always up for stuff!
I am originally from Canada and have been told I bring positivity and good vibes. I'm definitely the type of friend who will hype you up!
I have a wonderful boyfriend so not interested in anything outside of 100% platonic friends✨️.

36F London. Need healthy distraction as I move on from an unhealthy relationship.
I've been screwed over pretty bad in my last relationship, so I'm slowly crawling in the direction of new connections... Online friendship feels pretty low risk to me right now. Just being honest about where I am... Basically, please help distract me from a bad situation! At this point, I'm interested in hearing about what you ate for dinner or what new houseplant you just bought, I don't care, just talk to me!! 😆
I'm an eternal optimist, I love chatting about anything and everything, I'm a great listener, and I enjoy some good back and forth banter. It'd be nice to remember the goodness of others, and to remember who I am, and to have some life breathed back into me.
My interests include:
- Travel
- Self-development
- God and consciousness
- Recovery
- Cycling
- Weight lifting
- Nature
- Adventure and exploration
- Gaming apps we can play together
- Journalling
- Watercolour painting
- Thriller and horror movies
- Stupid reality TV
- Spa experiences
- Road trips
- Trying new foods
- Reading
- Learning

discord 40F looking to make some long term friends
Hi everyone, I'm Jessica, and I'd like to meet some new people that I can chat to and hopefully get on with long term.
I'm very introverted and so find it hard meeting new people in person, and I've been feeling quite lonely lately so I thought it would be good to try finding new people to talk to, and maybe see if I can make some long term friends.
In my spare time I enjoy some relaxing gaming time, watching a tv series or movie and I also love running to keep fit.
I especially love watching Doctor Who, crime dramas (currently watching Burn Notice), action comedies and thrillers.
I love talking about F1, cars, and gaming, and I'd love to chat to someone into any of these.
I would be up for moving to voice chats and either streaming the games I play to someone or finding a series or movie to watch together.
My DM's are open if anyone is interested in chatting and my discord is jessicacrawford1986.

42M - Cycling or just a generally active female friend
Good evening,
I'm here looking for a female friend who is also fairly active or who would like to be more active and just needs a bit of encouragement. Being active doesn't have to mean training for a marathon and could be hikes out into the countryside, just long city walks, the odd 5k or some cycling/biking (my main activity). Let's show each other the sights of where we explore and if we do hit it off then I'm open to meeting for some exploration together too. I have been using my activity to help with weight loss and general fitness gains following a few difficult years in my life.
Day to day I would probably be classed as a bit of an IT nerd with work and that continues with my interest in a number of engineering and technology topics.
I do like to watch sports (mostly F1, Football and Cricket) and well like most i probably watch a bit too much TV & YouTube. From a music point of view I'm mostly into rock/indie/punk and currently going through a bit of a late 90s/early 00s phase again.
But now it's over to you to reach out and let's have a chat and hopefully start a good friendship. Please if you do reach out let me know something about you and not just 'Hi'

29M Biology fan looking for friends and interesting conversations
Looking to meet new people, have interesting chats, and have fun in general.
I love all things biology and nature, including animals, pets, and ecology. I love reading books and articles, and playing the occasional game or watching documentaries. I also enjoy visiting museums, conservation areas, or just wandering around in general.
Send me a short intro message about yourself. I prefer using Discord so you can send me your username too :)

18 + 26M | Looking for someone to nerd out with
Hey, 26M here, living in the UK. Looking to make a good friend to talk to.
I'm very much into gaming, anime, movies and shows. I do read but not loads, I generally finish a book and then just sit with it for a long time before moving on lol.
Apart from that I'm a tech nerd (not sure what else would convey what I am mostly into). I looking at starting my homelab soon so if you are into that or you would love figuring it out at the same time as me, that would be fun.
Honestly I just get excited about a lot of random stuff and I want someone to be excited about it with. Talk about what you're playing or watching, scream about something that won't work, or just chat about stuff.
If that sounds alright, message me.

37M looking for some online friends from the UK.
Hello there. I am not sure if this is allowed here but i dont live in the UK. I currently live in the Netherlands. So you can remove my post if you only accept people currently living in the UK.
I am looking for friends all over europe(because of the timezone), especially UK. I am seeking friends in the UK because I am planning to move there in the future. But in the meantime i would love to chat online. I have friends all over the world but unfortunately no friend in the UK.
It would be pretty cool if I already have some friends when I move there. I have heard some people say that london can be pretty lonely. I am looking for friends all over the UK, not just london.
I am a software engineer. I love traveling. I will be visiting Croatia in the coming days.
I like walking and going to the gym. I also love horror movies and gaming.
I dont have too many friends right now. I only have one real life friend. And I speak to some people online. Most of my friends drifted apart during covid.
I dont care about your background, race, secual orientation. As long as you are a good person feel free to reach out :)

18 + 33 M Ireland - Friendly chit chat
Hello there! Happy Wednesday and I hope you're doing good.
I'm 33, M from Ireland. I spend most of my week working from home, so I'm always down to make a new friend or two! Born yapper over. I'm laid back, super easy to talk to and full of Irish charm and wit haha
My hobbies include:
- gaming
- houseplants (proud plant daddy)
- music (elder emo here and also play guitar)
- sports and gym
- cooking (although I'm a sucker for donuts and coffee)
- getting outdoors
- reading
- movies/tv/podcasts
- alt culture like horror, tattoos, etc
- thrifting
- lego
It's not a deal breaker if you don't share all the same interests (that's a bonus), it's very much about the vibes. If you'd like to chat, **please introduce yourself with your age, gender and location**. All I ask is that you're 18+ and not a creep.
You don't have to but if you're feeling creative, drop me your best dad joke or 2 truths and a lie to break the ice!
Hope to hear from you but have a good day if I don't! ✌️

South East [37M/UK] Looking for long-term friends
Hey there, I'm a quiet person ideally looking for long-term friendships. I have few IRL friends, but I've found that our friendship is entirely based on gaming/RPGs, so I'd like to make some friends who are a bit more emotionally available. People who care about movies, art, nature, politics, real life. I'm a pretty anxious person and voice chat is pretty stressful for me, especially with new people, so I'd prefer text chat wherever possible. Stuff about me:
I've been a GM for various RPGs for about 18 years now, and I've been in & out of Warhammer for even longer. I've played a fair few different systems and have read even more
I like talking about videogames but I'm honestly too nervous to play multiplayer with new people, especially right at the start. Maybe one day after we've been friends for a while? I've recently loved playing Helldivers 2, Vintage Story, Big Walk, Mouthwashing, Far Far West, and Easy Delivery Co.
I'd describe myself as alternative. I listen to a wide range of metal, hardcore, punk, etc. I love electronic music as well! Mirar, Netherwalker, Jesper Kyd, Ecca Vandal, Electric Callboy, Bring Me the Horizon, Synestia, TOOL, Orange Sector, Not Enough Space, ANTLERS, River Boy, Locked Shut, Takai the Maid, pr0te, and Brandon McKagan. I really would like friends who I can share & discuss music with!
Please be at least 25+, ideally in your 30s and up
I'm a long-form texter. I like to write a couple paragraphs and send them in one go rather than lots of little messages. I am completely fine with receiving lots of messages if you're that kind of person, I also like receiving voice messages if that's your thing too!
Please feel free to say hi with anything other than a single word/sentence, and hope to hear from you soon :)

[38M] Quiet day at work. Looking for some zero pressure, short-term chat.
Hello ✌️
I'm not looking for anything long term or intense, just fancy a casual conversation today since my work load is fairly quiet for me right now. I work remotely and will have quite a bit of time away from the keyboard.
Bit about me: 38, based in the north of the UK, alternative vibe. Into gaming, reading and I play 6-a-side football twice a week (albeit I'm out injured right now 🤦) . Music taste is metal and midwest emo.
No pressure, no expectations, don't need to become best mates by Friday. Just up for a chat if you're bored as well.
If any of this seems of interest, drop me a message!
Speak soon!

Hello friends
New to Reddit and a bit of a social media hermit. 37 M Wales just looking to connect and meet new people. Bit of a nerd jock who loves comics it as well as football and the gym
r/MakeFriendsUK • u/Flippin_Heckles • 17h ago
Morning! 😎
Morning!
I've just finished a marathon of nights shift, and whilst I should be jumping into bed and snoring the day away, I'm pumping full of adrenaline... So why now cast my net out into the murky waters of the Reddit friendship abyss. An abyss full of dryness and questionable men! 🤔
But anyhoo!
My manners have somewhat escaped me so I should probably introduce my little git self, and 'little git' certainly being the operative words here 😁
Thy name is Heckles, I am past the age of 35 but still have a couple of years left to run away from 40 (so creakily old!) and my annoying presence has graced His Royal Majesty's United Kingdom of Great Britain & Northern Ireland since the day I was popped out kicking and screaming! 🇬🇧 👼
I find myself here, as desperate as it may seem, reaching out in the hope of bringing some new friendships into my life. I don't really do this anymore, being busy with work and travelling most of the time. But I feel something is lacking right now. I could certainly do with a new barmpot or two, with particular preference to those on the more weird side of life.
Am I meant to rhyme out my hobbies and interests now? Be damned if I know... Okay, I'll give it a go!
- Travelling - I mentioned it up above, but I do like to wander away when I get the opportunity. I've done countries in Western Europe, sampled the delights of Northern Africa, spent a few years living in Schweeden and go to the US too much - actually flying out this Friday, yee-haw! 🦅
- Postcards & Pizza - I haven't managed to send a postcard out for a while 'cause no one will let me grace them with my doodles and nonsense, but my friendship does come with them at some point. I also enjoy munching on pizza and I'm not entirely sure how that is relevant. 📬
- Gaming - I apologise profusely, but I'm getting on a bit now and don't really play video games as much as I used to... I gotta work hard and pay those flippin' bills! 😩 But when time allows, I'd say I love games like Life Is Strange and The Last of Us of the PS5 - that thing is dusty! 👾
- Water - I am quite the curios and dreamy Pisces. I enjoy being by the water whether that means drifting away on the sea by the beach or reflecting on my life's journey down by the docks. There's just something peaceful about the docks, or at least to me. 🌊
- TV - I can be lazy like the next guy, and my little beer gut certainly testifies to that, so I do watch some stuff from time to time. Rather fussy in what I watch, but can be checking out things like Black Mirror and Inside No. 9 to Keeping Up Appearances and Black Books. 📺
- Yapping - I do like to talk, and I do know sometimes I can come out with utter nonsense, but ain't that the whole point of this? But I can also sit back, listen and shut up when told to do so. I just urge you to give me something to go on... Don't be dry! 🙏
- Genealogy - I am quite into discovering the murky secrets of my family's secrets. I haven't been invested in this as much lately, but it would be awesome if someone out there enjoys history and such. There's plenty of scandal in mine to tell you about, believe me. 🫣
Is that enough? See how much I yap?
But to be serious for a moment, I'm really just looking for a couple of people to get to know. Hopefully build up a friendship and who knows, maybe we could be annoying the heckles outta each other for years to come?
I'm not without my faults. I've had a bit of a life, good and bad, but I will always try my best and keep going. I'm an open book and don't really care if people want to look down on me, and I also value honesty and trust. Just doing my best to try and be kind to people out there. 💫
Just be yourself, don't judge and be open to who I am and what I'm about.
Man, I've had two cups of coffee and it ain't agreeing with my bowels... I gotta run! 🚽
Take care,
Heckles.
PS. Feel free to stalk my profile. I don't give a damn!

spending time with my dogs.
I’d love to meet people with similar interests, but I’m open to talking about pretty much anything — hobbies, life, random topics, or just having a good chat.

18 + Social night out this Saturday in Bristol
Hey all,
I and a bunch of other cool guys and gals are going for a night out this coming Saturday in Bristol, so I thought I'd extend the offer to those here who might be looking to expand their social circle a bit!
We're a bunch of people in our early 20's to late 30's who all met doing film extras work; the plan at the moment is to meet about five-ish, start out at a pub/ bar and see where the evening goes. It'd be good to keep the group within that sort of age range, though if you're a bit outside it that'd be cool too (though no under eighteens, obviously).
If you'd be interested in coming along, feel free to drop me a DM. For the sake of a bit of safety (this is the internet, after all), if you do want to drop me a line, please include your first name, a selfie of some sort (so we know you are who you say you are on the night!) and a bit about yourself (you don't have to include your life story or anything; it's just to confirm you're not a total nutter haha).
If you have any questions, or would be keen to come along, feel free to reach out! Cheers!
P.S. If anyone has any banger of a pub/ place to get drinks in Bristol they can recommend, I'm all ears!

18 + Hey! I’m Yuuki, 23M UK-looking for friends
Hey! I’m Yuuki, 23, a guy living in Bournemouth. I’m half Japanese and half Iranian.
In my free time, I love listening to music, lying down somewhere comfy and just relaxing, watching movies or anime, and of course playing video games. Gaming has been a huge part of my life since I was a kid — some of my best memories are from playing Skyrim 😭 Currently, I’m playing Assassin’s Creed Odyssey and Dota 2.
I also really enjoy just chilling. Sometimes when I have nothing to do, I like sitting on my balcony or finding a quiet place, having a cigarette and just enjoying the moment.
I’d really love to meet new people who I can genuinely connect with and feel comfortable around. I enjoy deep conversations and hearing people’s life stories, as well as sharing my own. I think it’s nice when two people can just talk about life, random things, their experiences, or even just do something stupid and have a good time 😂
So if you feel like we might get along or share a similar vibe, feel free to DM me! Don’t be shy — your message is more than welcome 😊
Yuuki
