(24F) This is gonna be pretty straightforward…

Life’s been kicking my ass lately. I’ve been dealing with a lot of anxiety and panic attacks, and honestly I’m just looking for someone who wouldn’t mind being there when my brain decides everything is falling apart, cuz that really seems to help.
Is that selfish? Maybe. I honestly have no idea. But if there’s even a 0.1% chance someone reads this and thinks “yeah, I can do that,” then I guess it’s worth posting.
What I’m looking for:
- someone from Europe (time zones lol)
- someone who’s usually around during the day/evenings
- someone who’s naturally calm and reassuring
- please don’t be a creep

I’m not looking for a therapist or someone to fix me. I just miss having someone who can tell me “hey, it’s okay” when my brain is absolutely losing it.

dm’s are open

20F feeling sad.

I don't even know what I'm looking for by posting this. Maybe just to know I'm not the only one who feels this way.

I keep feeling like I'm never anyone's first choice.

Whenever I have a best friend, they always seem to have someone they'd rather spend time with. Even in my family, I've often felt like I come second. It's gotten to the point where I can't remember a time someone genuinely chose me when they had another option.

The weird thing is, I don't think I'm unlovable. I know I have so much love to give. I'm fiercely loyal, I remember little things about people, and when I care about someone, I really care. I don't expect perfection either. I don't need someone to love me exactly the way I love them. If I felt like someone was meeting me 80% of the way, I'd be over the moon.

I think what I want most is to look back ten years from now with someone and think, "I'm so glad I met you that day."

Lately I've been wondering if I'm asking for something that's actually rare, or if I've just been unlucky with the people in my life so far.

Has anyone else felt like this? Did it ever change? I'd really like to hear from people who have been on either side of this.

F23 looking for ppl to talk to

Just looking for people who don’t have a short attention span to talk with and possibly befriend. I like books, music, and movies but we don’t need to have the same interests. I don’t think I get along well with people who are too nerdy tbh. Be serious and know how to have a conversation. Send a short intro so I know you actually read my post!

26F lookin for some friends to chat with

Hi :) lookin for some new friends. I've had an exhausting week and I'd love to make some new connections. I enjoy the outdoors, reading, and movies, music, camping. I'm from the states, and I also work in healthcare. Also just got divorced if anyone wants to connect over that!

22f-looking for new friends to chat and vibe with

hope everyone who celebrates the 4th of july had a great time. i had a pretty good time, but for me,it’s been a lonely past few months and i’m just looking to make friends with people who want to make friends, too. for me, it’s easier for me to make friends OL then IRL! anyway, i hope to make some friends

A bit about me: I LOVE reading/listening to audiobooks, listening to music, baking/cooking, playing farmland, going on hikes and watching movies, watching documentaries( the ocean, how it’s made, natural disasters, true crime, natural disasters, nuclear disasters and paranormal).

24f *totally original and special title to grab your attention*

Hi :)

I'm 24f, from EU, looking to hopefully make new friends. I swear it used to be so much easier to meet new people both online and in real life, it feels like as a teenager you're always making new friends and then it just seems to abruptly stop in your 20s 🥲

Anyways, I'm not looking for anything specific, if we click, we click :)

A little bit about me though:

I'm mostly an introverted person, I do like to go out sometimes and then mainly feel bored and out of place, but you gotta do what you gotta do..

I cycle between my hobbies; meaning I'll play a game obsessively for 2 weeks and then not play anything for a month, same with reading.

I love art and wish I did more of it, I mostly art journal, though I used to paint much more :'(

I like anime and manga, boooo I know, I know...

Some games I like: terraria (I'm a girl so ofc), skyrim, project zomboid, wow

Music: tbh in desperate need of recommendations, but 80s/90s vibes, alternative/indie I guess, though soft rock is probably my favorite genre

Anime/manga: distant sky, aot, goodnight punpun & such

Books: my fav author is Haruki Murakami, so anything by him, also the Annihilation series by Jeff Vandermeer. I 99% read either fiction or poetry, I don't enjoy fantasy that much I'm SORRY, I know it's a lot of people's favorite genre.. but sci-fi-ish fantasy is okay I suppose...? :'D

I don't really mind if we don't have many interests in common as long as we connect otherwise :)

Age or gender aren't relevant to me, though I'm looking for a purely platonic friendship. Also please don't be mad if I don't reply every 0.1 seconds, it really stresses me out when people get mad at you for that, let's take our time and talk when we feel like it with no pressure :)

Thank you for reading, and I ask that you please write something about yourself, including your age, as I won't be replying to just "hey" messages.

Hope you have a wonderful day/night! <3

#F17 #Florida - LOOKING FOR LONGTERM FRIENDS!! 🖤

Hello lovely people!! 🖤 I’ve been quite lonely and decided to shoot my shot at trying to make some new friends! If you’re interested, please message me your ASL (age, sex, location) as well as a short introduction about yourself!

About me: My name is Mia, and I’m a F17 (almost 18!!) year old goth residing in the sunshine state of Florida!! 🌴. I’m a virgo and my personality type is an INFP if that gives you any idea about how I act! Some of my hobbies include scrapbooking, antiquing/thrifting, tarot reading, and listening to music! I would consider my music taste to be quite random, as my taste bounces around from gothic rock to pop! Some of my favorite artists are David Bowie, Kate Bush, Robert Smith, Nina Hagen, and Siouxsie Sioux! My interests mainly revolve around spooky stuff such as clowns, vampires, and horror movies .. but I am into other things such as spirituality, bingeing my favorite tv shows (right now it’s been Euphoria just because I love the drama!), and musicals!!! I could yap about myself for ages, but I’d rather just let you find out the rest!

What I’m looking for: I’m looking for a STRICTLY PLATONIC!!!! longterm friend, of any age, gender, and whereabouts. I’d love a friendship were we both rant about each others days, send each other memes or silly videos, and engage in deep late night conversations. I am not picky as to what hobbies you have, or how many interests we share. The most important thing to me is that we form a connection both on mutual respect, and that chats stay clean and respectful!
