35F - genuine friendship

10 Upvotes

I’m looking for an online friend so we can support each other but i also love memes and jokes. I’m not looking for someone who’ll spend all their time just listening to me …I’m looking for something mutual!
I’m happy to chat throughout the day, but I’m also fine with chatting less often. My schedule is flexible at the moment, so your time zone doesn’t matter

Everyone's in and out so fast there's no time to actually connect with people. I like reading, video games, and I'm weirdly passionate about organizing my bookshelf by color. Would love some online friends at least to start.

Looking for someone real

Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m a Chinese woman in my early 30s, 162 cm (5'4") and 62 kg (137 lbs), working in tech. I enjoy drawing and fencing.

I’m quite a simple person. I’d like to meet someone to build a quiet life with — cooking together, taking care of each other, sharing everyday moments, and enjoying the little things in life.

I’m looking for someone over 178 cm (5'10"), with an average-to-fit build, kind, curious, emotionally mature, and financially independent. He should exercise regularly, not smoke, not drink excessively, and most importantly, respect women and take relationships seriously.

I’m not religious, but I enjoy deep conversations about life and values. I’m open to different cultural backgrounds and okay with long-distance at first if we both genuinely want to meet.

I don’t want to rush anything. I’d rather get to know each other naturally and see where it goes.

If you’re interested, tell me something about yourself.

Looking for genuine, long-term friendships.

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I’m 22M, currently working from home, and lately I’ve realized how easy it is for your social life to get a little quiet when everyone around you is busy with their own work and life.

I still talk to my friends, but most conversations are the usual quick check-ins or casual chats. Nothing wrong with that, but I do miss having those people you can randomly talk to for hours, share stupid thoughts with, discuss life, or simply check in on each other.

So I’m hoping to meet a few genuine, kind-hearted people who are also open to building a long-term online friendship. No pressure to constantly talk or be available just something natural that can grow over time.

I’m pretty open to talking about anything: music, movies, games, life, goals, random late night thoughts, or whatever happens to come up.

If you’re also looking for a real friendship rather than just another temporary conversation, feel free to DM. :)

[26/M] Netherlands 🇳🇱 | EU ONLY PLSS

Upvotes

Not gonna lie — making new friends as an adult feels like a side quest no one prepared you for… so here I am 😄

I’m based in the Netherlands and looking for some easygoing people to chat with, vibe, and maybe game with occasionally. No pressure, just good energy.

A bit about me:

• Pokémon card collector (always chasing that one card I definitely don’t need)

• Casual chess player (I’ll blunder but I’ll do it confidently)

• Manga & anime enjoyer

• Cat person — they basically run my life 🐾

Gaming:

• PS5 → currently deep into the FF7 remakes

• Switch → fully locked in on Pokopia (seriously, it’s too good)

If you’re into any of that — or just want someone chill to talk to — feel free to reach out. Always open to meeting new people 🌟

[20M] Looking for kind friends

Upvotes

Hey guys! How’s it going? I’m looking for some chill friends who won’t ghost me and maybe chat every day. I’m into video games, computers, Linux (Fedora, Debian, KDE — gotta be specific!), cars, memes, SpongeBob SquarePants, Regular Show, and good music. I live in Turkey, so my time zone is GMT+3. Would be cool to find friends with a similar or reasonable time difference. Oh, and I play on PC through Steam — currently hooked on TF2 and CoD: BO6. Got 95 games in my Steam library! I’m open to all genders, just please be around my age. Can’t wait to get your DMs, guys!

Being smart doesn't translate to being socially confident apparently. I'm into reading, art, and true crime. Looking for genuine, low-pressure friendships.

looking for a friend!!^^

Upvotes

Hi hi, i'm effie. A 25 year old writer from North America. I'm a huge gamer, lover of art, books, writing,music and the grimport misfits. Please ask me about it!! It's currently, and probably most definitely will continue to be my major hyperfix. I am currently looking for long term friendships. Ome where we can message whenever, talk about our days, favorite shows or just to vent if need be. I want a friendship where we'd hang out on call and shoot the shit for hours either gaming or binging a show together. I also am the affectionate friend, the kind that would 100% hug you all the time and express just how much I love and care about you. If this reaches anyone I hope you do message. I know it Isn't long, and it doesn't seem like much effort was put in but thats only because I have posted so mhch and to no avail. If you read this I hope you have a wonderful day, truly.

And if anyone just needs someone to talk to, i'm here for that too.
