r/DenverMeets

M25 tryna get more friends out here lol I like being outdoors paddle boarding, hitting river/creeks , I skate a lil (I can Ollie ) lol
Intermediate at guitar , been practicing my vocals more tho so lmk if yall wanna jam or some i 🍃too not really a drinker tho lmk yall

So my husband (37MPan) and I (43Mgay) had tickets to Pikes Peak yesterday with friends, unfortunately he got sick, so we missed out on the trip!

Anyone interested in a trip to the peak? We've never been and it's on my bucket list within the next month and would love to have a buddy or group to go with!

A little about us, we've been married for 17 years, we're both small business owners and love hiking/nature/outdoors. Don't smoke and aren't into any crazy partying.

We'd love to meet new peeps and see new views!

Honestly I am feeling a bit defeated at this point. I've tried my best to be social this year but still feel like I have no friends. Everyone that I've met has been super clique-y, even when I try to go to Meetup groups designed to meet people.

Maybe this is just my 'tism, but I thought it might be helped to list out a couple different 'types' of friends I'm looking for to give people an idea of my hobbies & interests! But first, a little more about me:

I'm a teacher full time & run a summer camp in the summer so I'm both a deeply goofy person and also pretty low-key in my off time. I don't drink anymore (alcoholic, 10 months sober as of tomorrow, actually), and I am also a chronic pain girly (EDS & a lymph system disorder we're narrowing down) so people who understand that are dope, but I try not to let it limit me too much. I can hike / walk a few miles and do love doing active things, I just need to prep for them & have recovery time, especially with my job. I am interested in getting back into light lifting and currently do a lot of yoga.

First & foremost, I am looking for queer friends!! I am mostly comfortable around queer folks and felt a bit let down by pride this year but I think it was lack of community.

Nerd friends - I have played d&d for about a decade now and have dressed up for Ren Faire every year I've been here, but I don't have anyone to go with this year, and d&d groups have been very hit and miss. I love running games too, I actually prefer it to playing! Not as into board games but not against them.

ASL / signing buddies - I am not deaf, but I've been signing for years, partly as a hobby and partly for work, but I'd love to meet more adults to practice signing with, or would even be open to class suggestions.

Mechanics / handyman friends - I love working with my hands and genuinely miss when my buddies need an extra hand in the garage or in the garden.

'Woo'- / witchy friends - probably the weirdest and hardest to explain lol but basically I've been having some weird things going on recently so I'm trying to learn more about all that stuff, ghosts & spirits and all that. I am also a bit spiritual/ religious and like talking about theories on past lives & multiverses.

In general, I also love animals (I have a cat and two snakes), writing/reading, cooking and lots of different tv shows and movies - I recently got into horror and have no one to talk about it with haha all in all I have a pretty wide range of interests so don't worry if we don't have something specific in common, feel free to send me a message if you think we'd get along!

Hey everyone! I just moved to Denver a few weeks ago and have decided I want to go to the Rockies game tonight, but going solo doesn't feel like it's maximizing my game experience. Is anyone else going tonight that would be open to making a new friend? I'm 29F.

Anyone doing anything I can go to?? I know it’s late but wanna get out! Everyone I know is working or out of state rn.

Hi! I just moved here, 25 years old, and I'm super hyped to be back in a big city atmosphere, having spent a couple of years in a small city (more like a big town).

Big sports fan, big video gamer, quite the yapper and happy to hang out, meet up, try new things. I do not drink at all, but am totally comfortable around people who do as long as they're not judging me for choosing to avoid.

Just looking for people to hang out with, call friends, be around and have a good time. I'm also a bit shy at first, but once I get to know you, I'll probably talk your ear off LOL.

Have admittedly never used Reddit for something like this, so, let's see how it goes LOL.

Hey all, Denver native looking for some fellow queer friends in the area to go clubbing with somewhat often? Hit me up if you know anyone/ are interested!

27m Aviation Maintenance Technology student looking for friends in the Denver/Thornton/Broomfield area.

I am looking for people near my age, 19-30, any gender, preferably other college students who are into intellectual conversations and have similar interests.

Big PC gamer and game collector (over 450 games on Steam across almost every genre!)
Survival, Base-Building, Defense, Strategy, Automation, RTS, FPS, incremental and more.

Aviation, Aerospace, Fusion, Energy, and Logistics technologies.

EDM, Clubbing, Bars, Dancing and Karaoke.

Not a lot of experience with D&D, but I’m very interested in joining a group with regular campaigns/meetups.

My job is very physical (30,000+ steps a day) so I don’t always get out for hikes, or go to the gym, but would love some friends that encourage me to get into better shape! I’ve lost over 120 lbs in the past year and a half and feel better than ever, but also want to work on improving my physique in general.

I do not smoke weed or do drugs, but am 100% ok with and 420-friendly or certain substances common in the EDM scene, as long as they aren’t causing significant issues or impacting our friendship. I was a daily stoner for a decade+, but chose to give it up to pursue an education and aerospace career and feel more present and sharp when I’m not partaking regularly.

I am not religious now, but have a degree in ministry and education, and am still an ordained minister! While I am not religious now, I am always open to discussions or simply knowing/befriending religious individuals, as long as their beliefs do not produce bigoted or prejudiced beliefs.

Leftist, but very open minded to other political engagements, as long as your political beliefs do not make you, specifically, an asshole. I don’t really actively discuss political topics without general consent and some basic underpinning agreement for mutual respect.

Hi all, looking to sit at the temple thingy, fountainside at 9am Sunday for a half hour meditation. If there’s interest, I’m happy to lead a qi gong session as well. If those words (qi gong) don’t mean anything to you, it’s like a moving meditation - kinda like Tai Chi, with the goal of increasing energy and health in general.

What to bring? Something comfortable to sit on for 30 or so minutes.

Why should you go? Meet new people, maybe learn something, bring some peace into your world.

Come help me bring more goodness into the world - look for the guy sitting on colorful blankets at 9am Sunday if you’re interested.

Always down to make friends and MW is the perfect place!

Hi Reddit! My wife (28f) and I (32f) moved to Colorado from Michigan about 3 months ago. We don't know anyone out here, and we've been struggling to make friends/get involved. Both of us are pretty anxious in large crowds or in new places, so putting ourselves out there to be more social had been pretty taxing. Even when we have enough confidence to go out or attend events, neither of us is the type to start conversations with new people, so the nights usually end without us actually making any new connections.

I keep joking that we need extroverted (and preferably queer) people to adopt us! We're hilarious and fun to be around, but we need someone brave enough to start the conversation or drag us into things!

We regularly partake in ~gardening~. My wife is big into playing sports (basketball, volleyball, softball, etc.) whereas I'm more of a spectator for those type of activities. We both love animals and have multiple pets. We love music or concerts and would be down to attend just about any show! We want to do more hiking/camping/adventuring as well.

I guess just looking for events that could help us socialize, or like I said, a group of extroverts that would be willing to take in two misfits from the Midwest!

We live in Aurora, I work in Golden, so really all of the Denver area is fair game as far as location.

Thanks in advance!

Hello!

I’m trying to get a small Denver-area Discord going called Colorado Adventure Club.

The idea is pretty simple: a chill local space for adults who want to get out more, meet people, and make actual plans and follows through.

Nothing too formal. People can share, set-up or join whatever is going on. Games, hikes, shows, cafe meetups, outdoor stuff, etc.

I’m starting small with monthly hikes, and the first one is scheduled for 7.18.26.
Details in the discord!

This is not a dating server or party group. Just a low-pressure place to meet people through shared activities.

If that sounds like something you’d be into, feel free to join.

Discord invite: https://discord.gg/sZ929X9wN7

Hi there Reddit, I (36F) just moved to LoHi and last week I made a post about wanting to make some friends in the area doing stuff like shooting pool or playing pub trivia in town. A few people responded "yay!" to my suggestion of doing pub trivia at Zuni St Brewing tonight so I figured I'd post the actual event here now in case anyone else would like to join.

Do I know what it'll be like? If there's plenty of seating? What beer to recommend on the menu? Of course not, I just moved here! But I'm willing to find out.

Trivia starts at 7 but it's probably good to get there a little earlier so we have time to grab seats and form teams before the quizzing starts. ***I'll plan to get there at 6.30 to grab a table, and will let you know where I wind up so that people can find me.*** (I'll probably put a piece of paper on the table that says "Hi" or something else equally dumb; I don't know yet.) Let me know if you plan on joining tonight so I can get an idea of what kind of table to get and/or if we need to split into multiple teams.

Yay trivia and beer!

27M, I've never played dnd before but have played a ton of RPGs and have always been really interested in trying to play dnd! Would also love to make some more friends. If you're starting a group, have a group, or want to join something, hit me up!

I (42F) have been working really hard to meet friends and I'm honestly exhausted. I even made a calendar of just community events, meetups, etc that I've shown up to and it's really hard, because I work part-time due to chronic illness, so I'm low both on energy and cash to do things. I have good friends, they just live out of state.

I’ve been in Denver for almost 8 years. I worked for about 2 years when I came here, then went to school for 5 years for a STEM degree. I didn’t have a car while I went to school, which really killed my social life. Then, after graduation, I was in a bad accident, so had to turn down job offers as I was pretty injured and laid up the last half of last year, this winter, and spring. I'm getting around a little better now, but not at full speed.

I'm a longtime exvangelical (10+ years). I’m progressive, kind, an LGTBQIA+ ally, and my faith is still important to me, though I haven’t really attended church anywhere for many years because *gestures everywhere.* (Note: This is not an invite for recommendations to your church - I have no interest in going, not even to your progressive church). I like physics, gardening, documentaries, my cat, stargazing, etc.

I’m looking for fellow exvangelicals, or non-Christian progressives who don’t mind that I still adhere to my faith in some form (though I’m almost a Universalist at this point). I have lifelong non-Christian friends and don’t try to convert anyone. My faith is just for me, but I mention it, because some progressives don’t like any reference to “religion” (which is really understandable), but I’d also really like relationships where I can bring my whole self to the friendship.

Down to meet up for coffee or go to a meetup or community event together. I'm just looking for someone who is ready to reciprocate effort. Feel free to DM. Peace.

*Bonus points if you are a hugger (though that can wait until after we've met a number of times).

*UPDATE: My inbox is flooded. You can still send me a DM (I would love it), just know it may take me a while to get to it. I can only realistically meet 2-3 people per week, so it's going to take me a while.

My partner (35 she/her) and I (34 he/they) just moved to Denver in November; we are both looking for friends especially fellow queer millennials, but allies and/or other age groups are more than welcome too! I also am originally from the south and formerly evangelical southern Baptist (we are both non-religious and both lean heavily to the left now)

We both love cats, coffee, board games, going out for food/drinks, shopping at local places, occasional movies and such. Also like to sometimes go out to dance clubs and such but I typically work early so I have to be done by like 11 at the latest lol. And we both like easy hikes, and sometimes easy bike rides but neither of us are in the best physical shape for anything more strenuous than that lol
I personally am also into video games, especially anything co-op and FFXIV (I have a PC and a Switch) so hmu if you want a game buddy.

I’m hoping for some strong connections with people who could be our sort of found family here, but I also just love hanging out and having fun too. Send me a DM!

Hey yall! Just moved to rino from atl and looking to make some friends. I’m into super smash bros, karaoke, anime, raves, and hiking and pickleball even tho I’m mid at them
