r/Colombo

I’m curious about something and would genuinely like to hear from people with experience or interested.

Are there actually Sri Lankan women who are interested in men who crossdress, or who are comfortable with their boyfriend/husband/ guy friend crossdressing?

I’ve noticed something that makes me wonder: some crossdressing guys already have girl friends who are supportive and help them with clothes, makeup, styling, dressing up together etc. But sometimes it seems like the guy is looking for another girl to join them, tells even to the girl to find another girl, so the CD and his girl friend can dress up and spend time with another woman who is also interested.

It sounds like a “three girls hanging out/party” dynamic - the crossdressing guy presenting as a girl together with his girl friend and another girl, dressing up, chatting, drinking, watching movies, having parties, etc.

Is this actually a thing in Sri Lanka, or am I just seeing a very small niche online?

For women who are into this, what made you comfortable with it? And for crossdressers who already have supportive girl friend, do you actually look for other women to join this kind of social circle? Have you really already created such circle? If so how is it going?

Would be interested in hearing honest ideas, experiences without any judgements.

Hi peeps! Are there any good martial arts clubs in the Colombo area that I can join? It would be great if they’re beginner-friendly. Hit me up if you know of any!

It’s 3600/- for the ticket so we can split it 50-50.
Thinking of the 10.15 am show. You get free popcorn too! Anyone in?

Cm if u r free it will be fun

Looking for recommendations for indoor futsal courts around Colombo 3, 4, 5, 6 or 7.

Most places I've tried have small courts, bad carpets, or aren't maintained properly.

If you know a place with a decent-sized court and good playing surface, please let me know!

Hiii

Free Saturday cm for a beach cleanup in the morning at wellawatte beach

22/M. Been pretty isolated for a while and trying to be more social. Into books, TV shows, Anime, music, random conversations, hearing about other people's lives, and video games (though my PC is currently broken 😭). If anyone's down to chat or maybe become friends, feel free to reach out.

Hey! I’m planning to start studying at the Colombo Public Library more regularly, mainly on weekdays and thought it would be nice to know someone who goes there often too.

Bonus points if you're from the Piliyandala area and in your mid 20s!

LMK if you're interested!

Edit- if anyone is planning to go next week dm me

I am a slowish cyclist, working toward my own goals, but I am finding it relatively boring to solo cycle all the time.

I am wondering if there is anyone who wants to do a buddy cycle, perhaps? The expectation is casual and slow, and to just try and sprinkle in some fun outside of dedicated workouts and training. I am on a hybrid bike, not a roadie, if that is a concern.

As this is a brand new thing for me, I would like to keep the number to a minimum at first, to see if I like social riding. Sunday mornings are the safest, traffic-wise. I can't do nights because I have an early sleep schedule usually, and besides, working out at night leads to insomnia for me.

I was thinking to start once a month, early on a Sunday (around 6.30 - 7am), perhaps starting next month? We can test the waters then. I enjoy the Monkey Bean Cafe on Marine Drive, and we can use that as a place to meet, and perhaps even dine, if we feel up to it. As it is a popular cycle spot, we can all feel safe as we get to know one another.

If anyone is intersted, please DM me. I only use Reddit on Desktop and would ask to move it onto Discord for active organisation, if it gets to it, and people are intersted.

Bro, wtf is this I’m hearing? 😭 Walking home from the gym with my headphones on was literally one of my favorite things to do. Did they actually make this illegal in Sri Lanka now?

As per announcements in various articles City of Dreams is gonna have a Scope multiplex cinema. Are we gonna get another IMAX screen? Perhaps 4DX? They’re hinting at “next gen cinema tech & immersive viewing experiences for the SL market” . Wondering if anyone has heard a peep about this hahaa. Cheers!

I am 29M and earning a good amount of cash ( Around 8 -10 laks per month), my home town is out of colombo and now live in Colombo.

but getting a good girl is hard with this lifestyle today. If we met beautiful girl they are most of time less qualities and uneducated, no value inside . Easy to bend with money.
In the other hand most of girls i met are not looking good. And I don’t like to go after girls and damage my personality. Honestly don’t like to marry some one not looking good.

I can live with them and care n share any thing, but in sex I will not enjoy it with some one not looking good 😬
Now thinking stay single and enjoy the life with short term relationships. Or go for a proposal.

Any thoughts or idea ?

Hey guys! Somehow I got a free ticket when I bought a toothbrush 😂 Out of all the things…

Since this wasn’t planned, none of my friends are interested, and I really don’t wanna go alone. So if any of y’all are down for a random, spontaneous adventure with a complete stranger, hit me up 😂

Ticket: Platinum 🎟️

P.S. I’m a 23M — please don’t assume I’m a girl and send me weird shit 😭🙏😂

Ok who in colombo enjoyed the musical ( with hugh jackman) so much that all the ( or most of the) lyrics are memorized? And what is the fav. song?

Hey everyone, I’m 24M UG guy who looking for practical ways to earn some decent income here in Sri Lanka and wanted to ask what’s actually working for you guys. Whether it’s online freelancing, local side hustles, micro-businesses, or remote work, I’d love to hear real experiences instead of generic advice. If you’re making USD or even LKR on the side, how did you get started, and what platforms or local methods are worth the effort?

Any tips on dealing with this would also be a huge help. Appreciate any insights or advice you can share!

Hey everyone!

Planning a night out with a few friends in Colombo and looking for recommendations.

Basically, we want a place where we can have some drinks, dance, eat good food, and just have a proper fun night. 😄

The main thing is the music — we're looking for that late 2000s / early 2010s English music vibe: Pitbull, Jlo, Akon, Ne-Yo, Usher, Flo Rida, Black Eyed Peas, etc. Basically music that makes you want to get on the dance floor 😂

We're specifically looking for English songs only — no Sinhala or other language music.

We're flexible with the date, so what's the best night/date to go for this kind of vibe? Are there specific nights or events in Colombo where they play this type of music?

Also, I'm kinda new to going out. So how do you guys find out about these happening nights or events? Because I've been to some places which are not that good. Is there a particular Instagram/Facebook page, DJ, club, or event page that posts about 2000s/2010s throwback nights? How yall follow up?

And which clubs/bars in Colombo would you recommend for this kind of vibe?

Bonus points if the place has good food as well.

Thanks! 🙌

One of my friends really need help and it is beyond my level of support. She need professional help at this point. If you know anyone please let me know.

I’m planning to buy a land in Colombo or a nearby district, but I don’t have much knowledge about how to properly check and evaluate the land deed (Sinnakkara Oppu / සින්නක්කර ඔප්පු) before buying.

What exactly should I look for in the deed? How should a genuine/proper deed look, and what are the important details I should verify?

Also, what documents and information should I request from the seller before making any payment or signing an agreement?

Any advice from people who have experience buying land in Colombo or nearby areas would be really appreciated. Also, if there are any common issues or red flags I should be aware of, please let me know.
