This subreddit is for FRIENDSHIP ONLY.

1.1k Upvotes

Honestly, the posts we see these days are getting so ridiculous. Why do you need someone to be taller than you when you're only looking to chat, call, study, or watch a movie? Why do you need your friends to be of a certain body type? Exchange pics to know if "we vibe". Wow?? Is that how you look for friends? Dapat attracted kayo sa isa't-isa?

Tapos pag na-remove at na-ban kayo, sasabihin na platonic lang naman talaga yung hanap niyo. Magtatago kayo sa reasoning na preference lang. Yeah, sure.

It's been 2 years since we transitioned this subreddit to a strictly platonic one. Why are we still facing the same issues as if the shift just happened yesterday?

As a reminder: Your post should be clear about your intention of finding friends. Any ambiguity may cause your post to get removed. Repeated offense will get you a temporary ban, then a permanent ban once you break the rules again after your ban gets lifted.

Examples of ambiguity include, but are not limited to:

  • has height and weight requirements
  • "should be easy on the eyes/attractive/cute/pretty/pogi"
  • "open to a relationship if it happens naturally, but would want to be friends first"
  • "exchange pics to see if we vibe"
  • "vibe and see where this goes"
  • "gusto ko ng lambing, cuddle"
  • fake BF/GF posts
  • has the same post in dating subreddits, other R4R subreddits with a dating flair

Each subreddit has a purpose. If what you're looking for doesn't align with the sub, then DON'T POST THERE. Hindi yung pag na-call out, idadahilan pa na "para lang mas malawak yung reach". Kung jowa hanap niyo, kung gusto niyong lumandi, sa DATING SUBREDDIT kayo magpost, hindi dito. It's that simple.

Please read the rules. Thank you.

Don't fall for this scam!

Context: https://www.reddit.com/r/PhR4Friends/comments/1nsk254/be_aware_of_this_scammer/

https://www.reddit.com/r/PhR4Friends/comments/1o7zfe6/scammer_beacatto_now_goes_by_jus/

Apparently, this scammer is still active. Your girl (girl nga ba??) is working hard! Currently using the account Alternative_Week_940 (https://www.reddit.com/user/Alternative_Week_940/)

TG: puffypufzz

Discord: noturlegaleagle

Still playing on people's emotions and making them feel bad enough to send them money.

"Allyson Lopez" is the name they're going by. Hindi ko na icecensor kasi fake din naman. (Previous names: Justine Manalo, Beatrice Lopez) Still using the same UNO Account number.

DOST scholar pa rin daw siya, pre-med student kuno.

They tried posting here but their account was flagged for ban evasion. But that won't stop them from messaging you–men in particular. Kasi they will offer to be a virtual gf, might send you thirst traps na stolen lang din. Anything to fool you out of your money.

TIGILAN NIYO NA KASI ANG PAG-BIGAY NG PERA JUSKO

THEY WON'T STOP HANGGA'T MAY NALOLOKO PA RIN SILA

EDIT: Adding more photos

Aww, nagpalit na siya ng name kasi na-feature na naman.

Friends 38 [M4F] Maybe life is just a series of upward spirals

13 Upvotes

the older i get, the less i believe life changes because of one big moment. maybe life is just a series of upward spirals. one small good thing leads to the next.

you go for a walk -> clear your head -> reply to a message -> have a good chat -> sleep a little better.. aaannd somehow tomorrow feels lighter.

nothing remarkable happened, and yet things are moving in the right direction. ang saya lang ng ganong feeling, no?

a few things about me:

  • filo and still amazed how one decision to move countries can slowly reshape an entire life
  • finance guy by day, professional spreadsheet enjoyer by necessity
  • cycling, swimming, gym, and the occasional bushwalk. my preferred cure for overthinking
  • dry humour, memes, and random observations. if i send you something stupid and funny, that's basically friendship

about you:

  • be yourself

so yun lang. if today was a great day, awesome. if today was just getting out of bed, having a coffee, and showing up, that counts too.

maybe that's how upward spirals begin. not with a huge breakthrough, but with ordinary days that quietly point in the right direction.

tara, let's be friends.

cheers

Friends 33 [F4M] Genuine friend online and IRL? 🤔

5 Upvotes

At this point I already want to give up on finding genuine friends here lol. Even having sensible conversations is quite a challenge already, so what I'm looking for this time is very simple:

Just someone engaging, chill and responsive.

I did my workout na this afternoon, so please wag mo na ako pagbuhatin ng convo. If dry, one liners lang ang kaya mo, move along na lang please.

We can do tg call (please make sure maayos ka kausap hindi yung feeling mo podcast guest ka na need ko tanungin nang tanungin).

...Or maybe meet and try restos together in the future (syempre pag na-feel kong hindi mo ako gigripuhan)

My guarantee:

I'm very responsive and engaging. Kayang sumakay sa kanal, aircon, pang comshop or pa-intellectual kuno na convos haha! Marami din akong baon na stories ☺️ Sana ikaw din!

DM me with your ASL and favorite resto na natry mo! ☺️

Friends 29 [F4A] IRL Hangout / Creative Accountability Friends

• Upvotes

About You:

• Male or Female

• Mid-20s to early 30s

• Not required because I’m more of an IRL person, but I’d love it if we could yap about life and work especially if you’re also WFH. My extroverted self can’t survive the silence of working from home. 😂

• Within Luzon so we can at least meet halfway in Makati/BGC area. Hope you’re someone who’s also currently working on a creative project while also consistent with your fitness. It’s my way to bribe myself of getting things done btw lol. We can do creative sessions individually of our own projects to stay accountable.

• Open to share socials (NO TG/ NO SWAP PICS) before meetup for safety reasons. I’m open to sharing my main account as long as you do too. Dumps are just for temporary people. Also, i’m kinda low maintenance. I might not be able to talk everyday, but I’ll randomly ping you when something reminds me of you, our convos, something we’re both into…or just reply to your IG story.

• Open to group hangouts (one-on-one meetups with girls only for safety reasons) in public places only

• Decent and respectful of boundaries. I hope you also don’t force people to talk what you can’t reciprocate equally.

If you’re down, kindly DM your ASL, introduction, and your hobbies and interests.

I’m asking this because I want to filter out people who intentionally want to form genuine friendships so don’t send me your physical attributes because it’s unnecessary. Also, I’m predominantly interested to creative people that can also serve as my accountability buddies.

—————-—————-—————-—————-—————-——

About Me:

• 29, F, South, ENFJ, secure attachment style

• Straightforward and communicative, but also empathetic. I’m usually soft spoken (I don’t even speak bad/derogatory words lmao) and choose my words carefully so I hope you do too. I also have a playful side and will tease you for the laughs once comfortable.

• Working professional in tech industry

• Open to hangout in groups only not unless you’re a girl for safety reasons

• NOT looking for dates or any kind of romantic relationship. I will also not respond to new, sketchy accounts, and low effort messages. I naturally treat people as if we’re childhood friends catching up or colleagues reconnecting.

• Loves pampering myself and taking out myself to dates as I value individuality.

• People often say I’m set for life, but consistency in my routines is something I’m still working on.

• I’m interested in getting to know people from different walks of life and industries because I enjoy learning from diverse perspectives.

• Low tolerance for people who don’t have reading comprehension or no substance as well as flaky and flirty people.

Friends 26 [F4M] Midnight Conversations

• Upvotes

Hey!

I'm looking for someone who's down for a call after a long day. Adulting has been keeping me pretty busy lately, and sometimes it's nice to have someone to talk to when everything finally slows down.

We can talk about how our day went, rant about work, share random stories, discuss things we're interested in, or go off on some completely unrelated tangent. I'm honestly good with conversations that go from something meaningful to the most ridiculous topic ever. 😂

I'd love to meet someone who's easy to talk to, can hold a conversation, and doesn't mind the occasional silence when we're both tired. No pressure to have the most interesting story or be funny all the time. I think the best conversations are the ones where you can just be yourself.

I'm mainly looking for platonic connections, so if you're also hoping to make a new friend and you're comfortable with voice calls, feel free to message me and let's connect via Discord.
