Trying to branch out beyond my norm

I mostly read thriller, horror, dystopian fiction, historical fiction, and I like memoirs. But I’ve been trying to branch out into other genres more.

I especially want to get into nonfiction. My issue is I sometimes lose interest or feel bored compared to fiction pacing, so I’m looking for books that might help me ease into it better.

I’m open to pretty much anything! Give me your favorites or any suggestions that you think would help me branch out. I’m just trying to expand my tastes and see what sticks!

27 [F4M] USA/Online - something tells me we should talk… come say hi :)

Good morning!

I’ve found myself with some extra free time lately, so instead of just filling it with endless scrolling, I’d really love to use it to get to know some new people and hopefully make some genuine friendships along the way :)

We definitely don’t need to have all the same hobbies or interests to get along either. I’m always excited to learn about new things and hear people talk about what they’re passionate about. I’d rather get to know someone naturally through conversation, but I’ll tell you a little about me:

I can be a little reserved at first, but once I get comfortable I open up a lot and really enjoy getting to know people. I’d like to think I’m easy to talk to. I’m definitely a glass half-full type of person, and I enjoy conversations that feel natural and easy rather than forced or one sided. I miss having that!

I love reading (even though I’ve been slacking a bit…) especially historical fiction and dystopian. I like books that really make you think. But I’ve been trying to branch out more lately too.

I’m also really into movies and TV. I could probably talk about them for way too long once I get started lol. My taste is honestly all over the place. Some of my favorites are Star Wars, Interstellar, Suspiria, Midsommar, Black Mirror, The Twilight Zone, The Sopranos, and The Office.

Music wise, I listen to pretty much everything. I know, I know… everyone says that. But I mean it! I’m always looking for new stuff to add to my rotation. I love discovering stuff I’ve never heard before!

I really enjoy cooking and baking. I’m no expert and there’s not really anything specific I enjoy making, it’s just something I genuinely find fun :)

Sports are another big interest of mine too. Specifically football (American), hockey, NASCAR, and UFC. I love watching events, especially live in person! There’s nothing like the atmosphere of live sporting events.

Basically I’m just hoping to meet people who actually want genuine conversations, instead of talking for a day and disappearing.

If any of this sounds like your kind of thing, please reach out and tell me a little about yourself :) Bonus points for you if you give me a movie, book, or music recommendation! I really look forward to hearing from you

Basically I’m just hoping to meet people who actually want consistent conversations and real friendships, instead of talking for a day and disappearing. Consistency is important to me.

27F Looking for something genuine :)

Hi! Happy Sunday!

I’ve found myself with some extra free time lately, so instead of just filling it with endless scrolling, I’d really love to use it by getting to know some new people and hopefully building genuine long term friendships :)

A little about me: I love reading, especially historical fiction and dystopian. I like books that really make you think. But I’ve been trying to branch out more lately too! It’s hard to explore other genres once you find ones you love hahah

I’m also really into movies and TV. I could probably talk about them for way too long once I get started lol. My taste is honestly all over the place. Some of my favorites are Star Wars, Interstellar, Suspiria, Midsommar, Black Mirror, The Twilight Zone, The Sopranos, and The Office.

27 [F4M] USA/Online - I’d love to get to know you!

Hi!

I’ve found myself with a bit of extra free time lately, so instead of just filling it with the usual scrolling and background noise, I’d really like to use it getting to know new people. I’m hoping to build something genuine where it turns into something consistent, not just a one time thing.

Sooo… a bit about me:

I love reading. I enjoy pretty much a bit of everything. I’ve been trying to branch out into new genres lately, so I’d really appreciate some recommendations. I also enjoy cooking and baking, even though I’m definitely not a professional. It’s just something I think can be fun!

I’m also really into movies and TV. I have a lot of favorites, and I could honestly talk about them for way too long. But I’m always looking for new things to watch and I like hearing what other people are into :)

Sports are another big one for me. I really enjoy watching (American) football (maybe you can help me in fantasy this year lol), hockey, NASCAR, and UFC. I’m not intense about it or anything, I just genuinely enjoy watching, especially live!

I’d say I’m pretty warm and very easy to talk to once I get comfortable. I like conversations that feel natural and not forced.

Overall, I’m just looking for people who actually want to talk and get to know each other over time. If we click, I’d love to keep the conversation going and see where it goes!

If you think we might get along, feel free to say hi and tell me a little about yourself :) I look forward to hearing from you!
