39M UK | Beard, Beer, Warhammer & Questionable Life Choices

So, one massive geek here down in Bristol, usually hiding behind a big bushy beard and a pint. I'm into drones, gaming and Warhammer, where I play Space Wolves and Cadians on the tabletop — because apparently spending obscene amounts of money on tiny plastic soldiers is a perfectly normal adult hobby, right!? I'm also into Star Trek and Star Wars, and anything sci-fi, military or geeky enough to spark an overly detailed conversation will probably get my attention.

What else is there, oh I'm partial to cooking, normall burger, pizzas and cookies. Sometimes homemade bread because yeah. I'm married as well and the wife and I play a fair few board games, normally while accusing each other of cheating, and holding grudges over things that happened three games ago. Gaming fills plenty of the remaining downtime when real life finally shuts up for a bit. Lately thats been Cyberpunk 2077.

As for me, I don't really have much of a filter. I speak my mind, sarcasm and swearing are basically my second language and my humour tends to sit somewhere between dry, dark and wildly inappropriate at the wrong moment. I'm not easily offended and much prefer people who can actually hold a conversation, take a joke and fire the banter straight back. So if beard, beer, geeky nonsense and mildly questionable humour sound like your sort of company, we'll probably get on dangerously well. Cookies optional.

f 19 looking for friends

hey! I'm emi and I am tired of feeling lonely. I'm a huge nerd, I love attack on titan, breath of the wild and tears of the kingdom, arcane, FNAF, avatar the last airbender, epic the musical, Hamilton, and much more but those are the main things. I'm about to turn 20 and I guess I just want to have friends who share my interests. I have no idea if anyone in the UK shares these interests, but it's worth a shot!

31F Surrey England - looking for new long term friendships

Hi everyone,

I’m Shannon, looking for some new pals. I want proper good friendships, ones where we can randomly call each other and FaceTime. I want to be able to have frequent communication, sending reels and memes, someone I can be my full sarcastic self with.

I love horror movies, football (in my element watching the World Cup) - I love Disney, drawing, art in general, diamond painting, photography, gardening.
I’ve just recently finished university, waiting on my results for a bachelors in health and social care :) I am also trying to kickstart/dip my toes in world of being an artist.

I care deeply about people, I love meaningful connections and I feel like I’m just lacking those at the moment.

I am agoraphobic so meeting up in person is out of the question for now, but I’m working on myself and doing really well so it’s a possibility in the future :)

I have a partner and I’m very happy and content with him, he’s changed my life, so please be respectful of that. I will block anyone that tries to flirt or anything more than a platonic friendship. Saying that, I would prefer to talk to women, I don’t mind receiving messages off men, as long as they’re respectful.

If you’ve made it this far, send me a 🍓 emoji. :)

Looking forward to hearing from you!

26 F online friends

Do you live alone? with a moderate social life? and a job that keeps you constantly busy with work load ?

Same here!

Yet you still find period of time of boredom , loneliness and in need of a distraction that scrolling on social media can’t stimulate.

Same here!

I’m not sure what we have in common and it’s not the biggest important to me .

One thing I like about meeting strangers is being introduced to new things and expanding my knowledge.

Just looking for a chat :)

F36 UK - spend the weekend chatting with me?

​

And then maybe more days after that, who knows?

I could list a lot* of interests, likes and hobbies here, but I don't think it's super important that we have things like that in common, and I'd rather not fill this out like it's a job application.

I like people who are interested in things, whatever they are. I think we'll either vibe or we won't. I'm just more interested in jumping straight into silly chats rather than answering a load of interview questions. We'll get to know each other naturally, over time, or we won't. :)

Bonus points if your opening message is funny and not just “hey” or something variation of “if you could have any super power, what would it be?”

*“A lot” is an exaggeration. I am boring and lead a mundane life.

Also, if you messaged before and I didn't get back to you, feel free to reach out again. Responses for women on Reddit can be a little overwhelming to keep up with. :)
