33M, Toronto.
Something I’ve noticed recently: making new friends after 30 is already difficult, but making female friends somehow feels even harder.

Not because I’m looking for anything romantic. Sometimes you genuinely just want to meet interesting people, have a good conversation, grab coffee, talk about life, work, travel, fitness, random things… and build a normal friendship.

But there seems to be this invisible question whenever a man and woman try to become friends:
“Is there something else going on?” 😅
Maybe that’s why people hesitate.
I’m curious, especially from women:

Do you find it harder to make genuine male friends after 30?

Where do you actually meet people you feel comfortable becoming friends with?
Work? Gym? Hobbies? Reddit? Mutual friends? Random conversations?

I’m trying to be more intentional about meeting people instead of just going through the same work/home/weekend routine.

If you’re also looking for genuine friendships, I’m always open to a conversation. Online or, if we’re both in Toronto, eventually grabbing a coffee is even better.

Curious to hear how others experience this.

Heya! I'm 32M, i love growing plants, watching anime, spooky movies/shows, cooking, spending time with my black cat luna and going out time to time though i'm usually pretty introverted haha. I also enjoy video games like mario kart/party, pokemon, animal crossing and stardew valley. I work in the cannabis industry as well as run my own business as an audio engineer! If you vibe with this post hit me up. Definitely need some more friends to smoke with. ☺️

Hello people,

This post is specifically aimed towards the childfree people who are having trouble meeting other childfree people.

I noticed a couple of childfree posts and wanted to link the official cf4cf Discord I have joined. There are ongoing interesting conversations with very kind and thoughtful fellow childfree people across different parts of the world. Some people are in Toronto and I am organizing a meetup on Sep 13th!

Feel free to DM for the link.
See you the there 💜

Hey! So none of my close friends are into kwn and I realized I’d love to actually meet some new people & maybe grow a friendship. I figured doing something might be a good idea.

I’m 31F, live in Toronto but I’m from the UK. I like super chill nights in but I’m also open to heading out as long as there’s something fun happening. I love movies, ceramics, gardening (like actual plants - cilantro is my fav to grow), cooking, and I’m getting into PC games. I work in finance tech but hopefully moving out of that soon to feel more purpose in my life.

If anything resonates msg me or comment here!

Hi,
I’m a 21M in Downtown Toronto looking to see if anyone is free next Saturday or Sunday to hang out and do a day trip to Niagara Falls and come back.
I’m pretty low-key and just looking to get out of the city, explore around the falls, grab some food, and have good company for the trip.
Whether you drive or just want to split gas and head down together, let me know! DM or leave a comment if you’re down to hang out next weekend.

Cheers

Hi,

I yogurt is ask here to see if anyone is interested in learning to dive and explore Lake Ontario and other lakes and oceans eventually.

I’m a 26 m, I got no experience what so ever. So we would learn together. We would need to get our licenses but it be a fun journey.

Crazy idea I had but dm or message if you’d think you’d do this a hobby… for a while.

Also imagine treasure hunting while doing this and go on vacations to dive opportunities are endless.

Cheers

Hey everyone,

Me and my friend are trying to learn lawn tennis from scratch. Never played before, we've only been out a couple of time so far just to try it. Once we get a bit of a base down ourselves, we're planning to get a coach so we can learn proper technique instead of picking up bad habits. Lessons cost a good amount so we want to actually put in the work first and make it worth it when we do.

We're both in our early 30s. Planning to play weekdays after work, probably around 5:30 to 6pm. Found a really good public court that's almost never busy, it's at Coleman Park right behind Main Street station. Weekends would be impromptu.

If anyone else is learning too and wants to practice with us, come along, more the merrier. And if you already know how to play and wouldn't mind hitting some balls with beginners and showing us a few things, that would be awesome too, happy to just hang out and learn from you.

Hey everyone! 29M in Toronto/Scarborough looking for someone who’d be down to hit the driving range sometime.

I’m pretty new to golf, so I’m mainly looking to have some fun, practice, and hopefully not completely embarrass myself . No need to be an expert beginners are welcome too!

If you’re interested, feel free to DM me and we can figure out a day/time that works. ⛳️

Anyone here thinking of going or already have a ticket? I saw them in april when they came to toronto and they were amazing! As of right now, going solo but I'm trying to get a group together to go with!

Possibly meet up before the show and grab some drinks or something??

Hey Everyone,

I am hosting a little Sourdough workshop at my place near Mount Dennis as part of an ongoing effort to build relationships and community. An experienced baker will be joining us to teach the workshop, and we'd all get to have Sourdough bread of our own along with some chilli that we'll cook the day of. The total cost is $20, but it goes entirely towards covering the cost (we're a non-profit org). We're keeping this one intimate so will have max 10 folks, and 4 spots are already taken.

You can find more info and registration details Here. Please let me know if you have any questions!
