r/PortlandFriendMeet

Hello all, I 32F just moved to the area from the midwest. I like board games, video games, any kind of art and craft, I like flow arts with my hula hoop, I like hair and makeup.

I'm not religious, but I don't judge so I ask that you don't either. I drink, I smoke, I curse, and generally just like to have a good time.

Bit more about me: Capricorn, Infp, Autistic, Adhd, Slytherin

Current hyperfixations are baldurs gate, throne of glass, painting mermaids, and my old boss T_T NOTICE ME, but not while i'm noticing you >_> Lets see, I love me some Lana Del Rey, Panic at the Disco, Dance Gavin Dance, Hozier, Muse, Tool is probably my favorite band.

Halloween is coming up and I need spooky friends to partake with in spooky activities

If I seem like your brand of weird send me a dm

Hi all! I’m 34M and moved to this beautiful city from a foreign country about four years ago. I have some friends here, but they don’t share the same hobbies/ interests.

I’m into music (melodic house and techno), DJing, and staying active, I’m always down for a run, hike, or workout. I also enjoy reading(mainly self-improvement) books, and I follow financial and economic news pretty much daily.

Looking to meet some like minded people and make new friends!

Thanks!

Hello crafters, if you do something creative we would love to have you join our group! Everyone is welcome who isn't a bigot, any of the isms, or any of the ias. We usually do weekends but feel free to try to organize folks during a time that works for you! DM me for details!

Want your group on a weekly recurring post? DM me!

We are excited for another meet up, thank you to everyone who came out last time it was such a blast!

🗣️IMPORTANT PLEASE READ🗣️

At our last meet up we tasked everyone with creating a piece of art that incorporates or represents your favorite spot in Portland. At this months meet up upon entry you will draw a number. After 15ish min of mingling everyone will find their number match. You both will share about you made and then TRADE YOUR ART 🙂‍↔️🙂‍↕️🥰.

SO PLEASE COME WITH SOMETHING TO TRADE! This is the main thing we will be doing but as always come with something to work on and ready to meet fellow artists!

Event sponsored by Cedar House Church!

Hi! I work as a WFH software engineer, 31 afab (she/they). I work from home most days, but enjoy going out in public and working from coffee shops sometimes. I’d love to meet up with other WFH homies and grab a coffee and/or lunch, and work together for a few hours every so often. Or even meet up for a midday walk. Also open to meeting at other types of spots, like libraries- or if you have other ideas, I’m open!

Some things about me: I love all kinds of crafting and arting, riding my bike, exploring, learning new things, being out in nature, traveling, dancing, live music, puppetry, eating delicious food, analyzing the emotional landscape of the human condition. 🌈 Just finished reading The Haunting of Hill House, currently reading Margo’s Got Money Troubles. I have an adorable schnauzer who is a distinguished gentleman & the best WFH buddy a girl could ask for.

*Also open to going to SE or N occasionally, but it would be harder for me to sustain that over time. Open to friendship outside of working hours as well! Feel free to DM me :)

I realized recently I could definitely use more people around my age to just talk to, send random shit to, play games with, and maybe eventually hang out with if we vibe.
I’m 26F and pretty laid-back. I’m into gaming (Fortnite, Spider-Man, Nintendo, PS5/Xbox), TV/pop culture, music (mostly hip-hop, rap & reggaeton), random deep dives about completely unimportant things, and sending people TikToks/memes all day 😂
I’m in school for psychology, I’m neurodivergent, 420 friendly, occasionally drink, and definitely more of a “come over in sweats and we’ll order food and talk shit for three hours” person than a fancy night-out-every-weekend person. I’m also down for gaming/Discord friends if we’re not immediately close enough to hang out.
Mostly looking for other women around my age who are funny, nonjudgmental, can actually hold a conversation, and want a genuine friendship. Bonus points if you also need someone to overanalyze shows with 😂
Tell me what you’re currently watching or playing!

I’m looking for “retired” guard members who would like to get together and spin. We could write some work appropriate to our skill level. Or see what routines we remember from a million years ago. Or we could just put on some music and play and chat. Probably in the evening or a Sunday at a park that works for everyone. I have a few 6 foot poles and one 5 foot. A rifle and 2 beat sabers that I can share. If folks want to buy their own it is best to do it as a group. The shipping cost is reasonable the more poles there are. I’d prefer folks 18+ and for those that think they are too old.. I’m 54 and have spun folks in their late 60’s!! Message me, we will make it happen!!

hello! i'm 27, afab, she/her, looking for friends that are in a similar life stage as i am (child-free, young professional).

some interests: i love movies, i'm really into traveling, big into games like skyrim and stardew valley and i love going to comedy shows and concerts.

i'm also a remote worker so if you're also a remote worker and want to do work together sometime, i'm so into that!

i'm open to trying new things so if our interests don't align, there's a good chance that you could get me into whatever you're into if our personalities mesh!

i'm really into shows like parks & rec, brooklyn 99, adventure time, doctor who, house of the dragon, harley quinn (2019), hacks.

and for movies, some of my fav movies are howl's moving castle, the princess bride, jennifer's body, the grand budapest hotel, hot rod, and uptown girls (just to name a few well-known ones)!

i'm from the south so i'm super warm and direct. i'm really hardworking, loyal, earnest and i would reallyyy love to find a few good friends in this city so if you're at all interested in hanging out and committing to friendship, let me know and we can make something happen! <3

p.s. just a heads up, i'm not into going to bars/clubs and i'm really only looking for friends within portland. sorry!

My work hours are changing again, so my weekends are now Sunday through Tuesday nights. Who else has a crazy schedule and might be awake during those times

Hi all, 31F asian american (filipino/chinese) looking to reconnect with my culture or people of similar cultures! I’ve been in portland for over 7 years now, have some good friends, but also looking to branch out as some friends are having kids, moving, losing touch, etc. I’ve always missed my life back on the east coast because it was more culturally diverse, so I’m trying to find that crowd again.

About me if you’d like to connect: Love arts and crafts, good food (kbbq, dimsum, authentic chinese, japanese, filipino, fine dining on occasion), being outside (hanging out at the park, the beach, easy hikes), comedy nights, karaoke, pool and tennis (but I’m terrible at both lol). Im trying to get back into anime/manga (drop recommendations if you have any!) and sometimes I play video games when i’m not bogged down by life. I could also get into a k/c-drama if you have any ideas! During solo time, I read, jog, meditate, hang out with my cats, and enjoy a little 420. I don’t drink much but I do socially.

If you have any recommendations of where to find my people, please lmk! If you’re interesting in hanging out, maybe we can tag team a social meetup together - I’ve been seeing random mixers at bars or skip the small talk events, but would love to go with some people joining me! I’m really looking for people who want to actually go out and do a variety of stuff and are good at communicating and committing to plans, big or small!

PS not looking for any romantic interactions as I’m partnered but happy to wingwoman for someone! (;

Hello all! I (40f) wondered if people would be interested in maybe my husband and I starting a couples meetup. My husband (44m)] and I have our individual friends, but I'd love to experience some friendships as a couple, as well! NO, we don't want to swing, just want to clarify that, haha. It would be great to start a regular meetup to hang with other local couples and do some cool activities all together. Who would be down if I started such a group/regular event? Feel free to DM if interested.

Hi, I’m a 43-year-old man. I recently moved from LA to Oregon. I enjoy woodworking and football as hobbies. If you're interested in hanging out or meeting up, I have a place and unlimited beer. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hi hi!! I’m 23F (she/her) and moved to Portland about 4 months ago! I’m from nearby so Portland isn’t completely new to me, but I’m terrible at actually getting out and exploring what the city has to offer. I’m pretty shy so I’m hoping to find some friends on here!

I love playing video games, mostly on Xbox and Nintendo. Currently trying to make it past the first year in Stardew Valley lol.

I also enjoy board games, cartoons, movies, anime, and talking about my cats. If you give me the opportunity, I will show you my entire camera roll of cute/derpy cat pictures.

I’d love to hang out sometime if anything here grabbed your attention! I’m always down to grab some food, play games, watch a movie, or explore somewhere around the city.

Hey all,

I’m a gay guy in my 40s navigating a recent breakup and discovering that apparently ice cream, Netflix, and overanalyzing text messages are not sustainable long-term coping strategies. So, I’m looking to get back out into the world and make some genuine connections.

A little about me: I enjoy camping, live music, traveling, board games, trying new restaurants, exercising, and generally saying "yes" to adventures that don't involve assembling IKEA furniture. I don’t have kids, and I’m open to friendships with all kinds of people. Gender, orientation, age, and background don't matter nearly as much as being kind, interesting, and able to carry a conversation.

I'd love to meet people who enjoy getting out and doing things, sharing some laughs, having good conversations, and maybe building a few real friendships along the way. Whether you're also rebuilding after a life change or just looking to expand your circle, I'd love to hear from you.

References available upon request. Most describe me as "housebroken," "somewhat funny," and "unlikely to talk during a movie unless it's really bad."

Feel free to reach out!

Hello everyone,

I (46M) am looking to hangout with a few people in the SE area (near Lents Park) that might enjoy one or more of my favorite activities. My girlfriend just got me a nice chess set, but I also like walking my Corgi; discussing math, statistics, science, and economics; getting back into Magic the Gathering (thank you to the nice guys I met at Red Castle Games today) and some sporting activity; and trying new things. I moved here about 15 months ago and had some trouble finding friends. I am looking for people to help stave off my depression. I would also like to join a bowling team/league and other adult sports leagues with consistent people Thank you.

Hi! I’ve been so focused on other parts of my life for so long and am missing singing with friends! I love almost any music with interesting harmonies and some of my faves are Indigo Girls, That Dog, Veruca Salt, Fountains of Wayne, and way too many others to list!

I tend to stay in North Portland and would love to have chill back yard or park hangs. I don’t drink anymore, but don’t mind if others do, 420 friendly.

Anyone else looking for a casual singing hang out?

Hey! I’m a 32M, thinking of heading to downtown Portland to play some pool or walk around the city. Anyone want to hangout? I thought why not post on here and give a shot. Don’t know Portland too well.

Hey!! I’ve (26F) been nervous about getting involved in volunteering, community events, and political happenings like city council meetings/town halls, door knocking, etc., because I haven’t had anyone to go with. But a couple weeks ago I spoke at a Hillsboro city council meeting despite being scared and I loved the experience.

If anyone else has also been feeling nervous about getting involved, I’d love to connect with like-minded buddies. I’m personally leftist and part of the DSA, but I’m also interested in volunteering at things that aren’t directly political if that’s not your vibe. Like animal rescue events and such.

I’ll be door knocking tomorrow in SE for city council members Angelita Morilla and Tiffany Koyama Lane if anyone wants to join in.

Hello all, I am 48m, I live inner Portland. Most of my friends have either moved away from Portland or passed away over the years and I am trying to build back up a solid group of people. I like to Hike, backpack, Bike, see shows, dance, play board games, make music, watch films. Reach out if you are interested in hanging out.

I’m 28 and recently moved to the area. I’m having a bit of a hard time connecting or finding a place to make friends. Easy going and love to cook, play piano, get drinks, go to vineyards, love nice cars, and try to stay artistic. Open to any platonic friendships! I’m not straight but typically straight presenting. Excited to meet the locals!
