I have friends but I need connection, 20F

Making friends is somewhat not a difficult thing the problem is vibing and actually getting something useful for each one is out of it ( useful) , I'd like to make acquaintances with people who want to talk about unconventional things about society, rational things , universe and switch to brainrot, flirtatious moods

I'm single currently and I also like discussing about relationship and love ethics or whatever, various topics , just out of the blue uk

im "cool" and "funny" but no one wants to be friends with me. am i trying hard?

no one invites me anywhere, i see my friends group's stories posting when they used to lie to me earlier saying they cancelled. when i ask others if i can be with them they tell me im not invited. i learned to shut up but now since i dont do moves i just stay alone most of the time.

25F and have never had a friend..currently sodas and music keep me sane

I'm a hikikomori. It basically means a shut-in. And I've been like this for a few years now without any interaction, not even texting others on a consistent basis. But I want to change that and so.. I make this post. I'd like to make some online friends and text friends whom I can text here and there and just in general keep each other company. Currently I just live on sodas and watching gameplay and if not either of those two , I drown in music. Music just passes time like so quickly it's mad haha. But it'd be great to have an online text friend and talk to real humans. Pls dm me if you wish to make a friend :)

I need a friend, I feel so empty and lonely

​

Looking for friends preferably female friends coz i got 50 dms just from guys 😭 not a single female dm like wtf bro 😭

hey everyone anyone from Europe?

Lately everything feels a bit too quiet in the wrong ways. I keep catching myself staring at walls, scrolling aimlessly, wanting to talk but not knowing who to talk to. I’m just looking for someone real. Someone who actually shows up. Someone who doesn’t disappear when things get quiet.

I’m 24, currently floating through life with way too much time to think. I love yapping, I talk nonsense, I overexplain, I ramble until it somehow turns into something deeper. I love when the effort is mutual, when replies don’t feel like I’m begging for attention. Please don’t be dry. Try to talk. Respond faster. If you’re always busy, please don’t bother texting. I’ve done my time with people who only remember me when they’re bored.

I like baking, movies, gaming, chess, reading, writing, guitar, long walks, voice calls and pretending I’ll ever finish half the things I start.

Mentally, I come with the ADHD + BPD expansion pack, clingy DLC included, but also a lot of warmth, honesty, and way too much empathy for my own good. I’ll listen, I’ll care, I’ll match your energy.

If your first message is just “hi,” I’ll assume you’re not real. Say something weird. Tell me your favorite thing to do, your most irrational fear, or the song that ruins you every time. Just say something that feels like you mean it give a nice intro pls

26f looking for friends 20-32 who share my interests (or willing to learn) to talk to daily. please read full post. please no one from USA due to timezones, & if you’re too busy please don’t bother.

name: tayla.

country: australia.

interests: roleplaying and old british tv only (70s/80s sitcoms and comedians — these are big comfort things for me and go hand in hand), rock & metal music, all animals, nature, daily walks, colouring in, diamond painting (check the subreddit please), arts & crafts, some history, and casual ipad games.

boundaries: no flirting or pet names (babe, hun, etc), no relationships, no nsfw. please don’t ghost, delete your account or randomly block, and please genuinely share my interests. i don’t work or study (not through not trying), so please don’t ask me about jobs or education.

what i’m looking for: a kind, caring person aged 20–32 to talk to daily who’s happy to roleplay with me (even if you’re new — i can teach). i have mental health issues, i’m sensitive, and making friends is hard for me, but i’m trying my best, so please be understanding. i also have insomnia, so i’m online a lot. if you message me, please include your name, age, country, and interests, as it’s hard for me to reply to just “hi”.

i’m mostly looking for someone willing to roleplay with me who actually wants to, looks forward to it, suggests ideas for the plots and won’t abandon me. it’s something that helps me cope when it goes well and means a lot to me, and it would mean a lot to find someone who feels the same way about that. yes i have tried all the roleplaying places with no luck.

i don’t want to wait days or so for a reply, like most people online, because it’s hard enough making online friends. so please don’t reach out if you’re “too busy” to message (i try to be understanding that life comes first but still), are going to be rude and waste my time and all that bad stuff.

33F. Yeah, truth has it nobody will care about you in the end when you're struggling I realized now out of the 6 months of being on Reddit people have contacted me out of self pity, to be honest I don't need self pity, all I need is to put down the roses and pick up the sword in the end.

Quitting Reddit this week, I should also address here that I'd know nobody cares and nobody shouldn't care about a piece of sht like me anyways.

However, I should address a few Redditors that are mentally struggling or questioning when will this cycle end?  U.S. Central time. Looking for worldwide connections and online only connections 🪶🦩🎭 

This is a SUPER long vent post, I would highly recommend you save your anger for your comments, because I don't read comments for these reasons here.

Yeah, I should also address that I just only read high quality chat req and low chat req get ignored in my chat req inbox anyways.

And if you can't include your interest, hobbies and expect me to do that myself yeah, go fk yourself I don't have the fks to give to do that anymore instead tell me what would you offer Dagon instead? Sleep Token and old-skool pun.

And someone asked me yeah, how long does a post take me to make?

Simple answer, I become a Lovecraftian modern person logging on my Email rough draft, type out something on my wireless keyboards, have a meltdown or two, then just step away from the Email letting my Vessel brain and skull start processing the next steps in the typewriter anyways.

Yeah, then just the final step is just go back to my tales of my insanity.

Just yeah, I should also address by the time you get done to listening to the spiritual masterpiece album Sundowning by Sleep Token then you would be already done with this post anyways 🌑

Yeah, to be honest nobody should trust a friend when they say I'll be here for you when no friends will be here for you in the end it's futile to trust others anymore.

However, I should address that eventually there has to be self-awareness within the person that eventually you will be left alone in the end of it all and nobody gives a damn about your sorry fk ass self anyways.

Because that is true, the nickname I've given myself is Elis which sounds similar to a virus and a disease.

Why would you want a friend that is a virus, a disease anyways?

However, I should address that I'm a person that wants to be needy, wants your attention, wants to be remembered by you, hearing your text messages. I miss you, I want you around, I care about you and you're a good person.

I feel like I've hit rock bottom, it's why I did drink in the late a.m. on my last post at 2 a.m. even though it's almost 5 a.m. central time now and a few Redditors were taken by surprise that I drink because oddly to the Redditors that sent me a chat were caught by surprised that I'm honestly the drinker type.

Yeah, coming from an ex alcoholic, alcoholism does sound good right around now and the reason why I've not gone back to my Past Self is the House of Veridian one of the crest mottos from that house is stability.

Yeah, I should also address that's the only reason why because I don't have anyone that honestly gives a sht because all my ex-friends were in my life because of self fk ass pity of it all.

It's the same thing for Redditors that come into my life and you want to tell me that ''I might not like you because I used to be a pass alcoholic and druggie.''

Yeah, I should address here the truth is nobody isn't a god-given angel in their early years in their early 20s, what matters now is the present and the future self of you is what I want to look at anyways.

Yeha, this could be seen as close to insanity when I say this but a bottle of whisky and coke lasts 6-8 months in the freezer and that's right I put my whisky in the freezer because I'd enjoy the altered taste just like my damn personality anyways 💀

However, I should address that's nsanity right? Well yeah, just wear me out like Prada devil in my detail.

Yeah, I should also address that I just don't want nobody asking me anymore how I'm doing those days are over and I don't think you want to know what it feels like to feel like your missin your wings in a realm of angels?

Yeah, I should address here if I'm going to be honest and the handful of times that I've gotten blocked for just being way too honest and I just can't keep doing this anymore sorry Redditors but I just can't do this anymore.

Yeah, to be honest, it's time to put down the roses and pick up the sword, right foot in the roses, left foot on a landmine and I just can longer have anyone tell me you care because you fk ass don't 🤡

Here are my other interests and hobbies.

Yeah, recently this month I got into YT cosmic horror podcast, stumbled on Horror Babble and I'd wonder if there are hardcore cosmic horror podcast goers who can show me where I should go nex as well.

And yeah, I should also address if my new serial send friendship can show me who I should listen to next and what stories I should pick up?

Yeah, just let me know where to go because I found Horror Babble VERY recently as well.

And yeah I should also address, I'd wish that Redditors would've seen my Steadfast Dwarven Spider uplift itself from a shout from a Deathlord, that was/were the most funniest thing I've seen this whole month currently 💀

However, just camera angle alongside with the dragon shout just was/were 🤣

Yeah, the camera angle you could hilarious see the 8 legs just lifted off the tomb ruins and just went flying FAR back 🤣

However, those Steadfast Dwarven spiders are well-built. I couldn't believe the spider was/were still alive after how far the spider got uplifted and went flying far back from the Deathlord shout far back.

Greek literature, I need to catch up on this though, Lovecraft stories (fascinating, just not the person.) Japanese Yokai lore, new technologies that are out, Skyrim is what I play every single day, if I'm not on YT or listening to music, occasionally everyday or every other day or two I get on Mario Kart 8 and on occasion Splatoon 3.

Yeah, this is just what interests me single day of the week, nothing changes and this is why asking me what's up will get VERY boring every single day.

Big Macs (no lettuce, no pickles and light Big Mac sauce.) Mcdonald's hot chocolate is amazing in flavor and 10 grams of protein for a small is awesome/kool.

Sea salt caramel.

Sugary or caramel perfume because you know that Sleep Token song huh?

Perfume that smells you walked out a forest because you know you got to remember the House of Veridian in the woods of Arcadia.

If you're also alternative, love deathcore, rock music, djent, different types of core and metal music and then just send me a chat req 🌸

Sleep Token is fusion music, that's what genre that I give Sleep Token as well 🦩

The standard Paradiddle 👑 II 🩷

Music.

Erra, Wage War, I See Stars, Currents, I'd enjoy a variety of metal genres/that even includes old-skool black metal and doom metal as well.

And yeah, just the style of old-skool-black metal bands that I'd enjoy are the 90s era of old-skool-black metal as well.

Lorna Shore (Will Ramos era only.)

How often do I go outside?

However, I should address that I'm not a people person and I'd only go out once or twice a week because I don't enjoy going out.

Yeah, just for me though I would rather be a metaphorical term of a Lovecraft unsocial hide away rathan me going out every single day to be around as well.

Highly disinterest me, maybe my Past Self would and it's just not for me anymore. Gave all away my blessings you know, put down my roses and picked up as well ⚔️

And yeah Lovecraft, I'd enjoy his books and just not the person that he is. Dagon and Mountain of Madness are my favorite as well 💯

However, I should also address that if you're in the grip of nsfw subreddits and you make a lot of comments in the nsfw-subs then don't message me not because of these reasons here.

Yeah, that just goes ''to show what kind of person you really are and I don't want to be around that kind of thing.'' I'm a gray 🩶 ace-poly but my friends don't need to be, I accept all friendships with any pronouns or sexyakuty as well.

Thanks for ignoring my chat req?

Yeah, your profile is completely blank, you can't say your asl, with hobbies, interests and you can only say hi 😂

That's just dry as 🦴 personality, your personality sounds dryer than wall plaster and I'm a VERY depressed person lately, just have some life to you because I don't 😂

Yeah, speaking of personalities for 6 months of being on Reddit I was/were only able to have less than 5 mature conversations about Sleep Token because of these reasons here.

Everyone has a kiddie-pool knowledge of Sleep Token and it's also rare to come across Sleep Token fans that understand that there are a lot of Japanese theatre (Noh.) influences as well.

This is why Reddit is fk ass sht, just close to the same as the Sleep Token community for SOME fake ass fans asking questions ''I don't understand the purpose of the masks, why do mask have to be worn in a ritual and photoshoots?''

Yeah, this person claims they've been listening to Sleep Token for a while yet you can't understand the meaning for a ''ritual.'' what do you think it is?

However, why do think SUPER kiddie-pool thinking and do you think it's just a jazzy-kool name?

However, I should address I just don't understand how people are not grasping the meaning of ''ritual.'' and that Sleep Token does have Japanese influences with Noh theatre and the reason why Japanese theatre that the masks are HIGHLY important to the person alongside the other dancers wearing the masks during a Japanese dance ritual 🪶🦩

I'm a loser, how can I make friends?

Idk how to start this but I've been out of high school for 2 years almost and basically have had anyone I used to hang out with move on with other people. I'm naturally introverted but the isolation I've experienced has kind of affected me in a way where I'm almost content with being alone but I get sad sometimes and I think it's getting worse. I'm much more socially anxious and I can't approach anyone. And it's hard seeing everyone I once knew making memories with friends while I basically live out the same day everyday. Last year I took a gap year to make some money while I figure out what path I want to take. Was working 40+ hours a week in the worst job and it almost broke me. I think my life took a turn for the worst after that. Working the shittest job possible, constantly sleep deprived and waiting for Friday to come only when it did come, nobody calls or messages my phone. So the weekend was always the worst because I couldn't distract myself like work did and I'd be alone with my thoughts.

I go to university which almost the is the only time I leave the house. Apart from that I play guitar, listen to music, walk my dog and play video games. Stopped going to the gym after 3 years because i don't feel like it anymore. I want social connection, yet I avoid it because i think people just find me weird and it seems like nobody ever smiles when they look at me. Like I'll just always be a background character. But I don't not want friends. I want to go out and experience things. Anyway if you cared to make it this far thanks for reading. I would like to know if there's any apps that can help with my situation. I don't really care for online friendships unless it translates to real life. I'd really just like a friend who's genuine

Do people find real friends on reddit?

I am 20 F. Tomorrow is my birthday, I'm depressed for 2 years now. Trust me this is the hardest thing to start with but sounds more like I want your sympathy. No, from 2 years I'm all alone barely any human interaction. Trust these are the worst years of my life. But now as the time pass I want to get out of it. People say you should have good people. Finding people around rn is the hardest thing for me rn. I think I should try online. Or give me some advice for the betterment of my mental health

Feeling discouraged. Was supposed to meet up with a new friend for the first time and I think I’ve been ghosted.

I met someone online (we live in the same city) and we have been talking for a few weeks, everyday and it’s felt so fun and natural. We were supposed to meet for the first time today to go for coffee and book shopping… I messaged her yesterday to confirm place and time but then she never messaged me back

I was so excited to finally have a friend… this is the 3rd time this has happened where I get to know someone well but then the day is comes to meet in person they ghost me… I’m not pushy at all, we mutually talk about meeting up and pick a day and then nothing.

I’m trying to not take it personal but I’ve been looking forward to this for over a week. Planned a nice outfit, listened to podcasts on how to be a good friend and conversation starters so there is no awkward silences

I feel like I could be such a good friend to someone but no one has ever wanted to be.

Want to be friends?

Hi!

I’m trying to collect some new pals. I’ve had some luck on Reddit before with making long-term connections, and I’m wanting to try and make more special connections with like-minded people.

I work from home, but can still take some time to reply (I get busy, so if this will put you off…best to avoid) but I’ll always try to match the effort I receive.

I’m creative, friendly, observant, shy, slightly unhinged and have troubles connecting with people in reality. Online is much easier hahaaa!

I would love to make some female friends, but males are welcome too!

Please send a message if you think we could get

Please be over 25! I am 28 and am wanting people around my age.

I honestly need friends this is k*lling me

17f (18 in 3 days as of making this post)

I desperately need friends. I’m about to graduate high school and it’s like I have no one. No one at work, school, my neighborhood, like anything.

I don’t really have a lot of interests. I’m not too smart, I have mental issues. Just the whole damn bowl and the cereal.

i like the play video games? i like listening to music, I like read horror books, word searches, coloring pages when I can?

I’m rlly animalistic I suppose. When i message I’ll add a *wags tail* just to add some flair I guess. Not a full f*rry but I love being a kitty or pup or really animal

I love getting pets over text, i love praise and just getting to know Stuff about you. Like little interests

I hate dry textures, people who can go days without texting or reaching out. I need consistent conversations— if that’s you, id love to chat! ages from like 17-23 though id love to have some stuff in common

my instagram and discord are both Janaerichh- but you can dm me on Reddit as well to chat! Thank you

27F looking to make friends🙂

Hi everyone!😊 I am a super shy socially anxious person but when I warm up to you I may get on your nerves as I’ll become more comfortable and may begin to talk a lot more to you 😅 I am a 27f who is still trying to figure her life out. I’m still struggling with doing things alone I know I shouldn’t be at this big age but oh well lol I have made a lot of progress and have been trying to grow and work on my socialization skills but I tend to get attached way to quickly and I’m really working on that but for now I figured maybe starting with some cool online friends wouldn’t be the worst idea… I hope😅 I am a pretty chill person I think.. I mostly enjoy gaming on my pc, hiking, crocheting, documentaries, learning new things, I’ve been recently getting more into auto body so I have been enjoying watching a lot of videos on that, I love animals and enjoy basic coding… feel free to dm me and say hi if you think we could be good friends!😊

18m - i got no friends, who wants to be my bestie?

hii, my name is vayne (it's my middle name) and im looking for a friend who lives in california near Ontario or is in the states. the reasons for that is because i need someone i can hang out with or do fun stuff with (not weird or bad shit) and so our time difference isnt a day apart.

( about me ) - i make music, i draw sometimes, i love going on walks especially at night, i love motorcycles, i lovve the artist sub urban (ik i love a lot of things) and i have a little chiwiwi her name is bella. idk what else to say, but u can ask me as much questions as u want

( things you should know ) - i honestly suck with texting, and i can be awkward and dry at first, but if i like ur vibe and we work out as friends then it wont be like that later on. not really a yapper unless we got into a topic of something i really like then u better get ur popcorn, but i am very good listener. im mostly free all the time, well as of right now. at night i could get very depressed so if i say some dumb shit just ignore it ill be fine, anddd that should be it. so if u wanna be besties or just friends then PLEAAASE dm meeeeee pleasee.

What can I do with my free time if I don’t have any friends in my uni city?

I’m finishing up my first year of uni and I’ve realised I don’t actually have many friends. I get along well with my current flatmates but I don’t think we’ll see that much of each other in the next two years, and I’m only living with one of them next year (who I don’t see that much of at the moment anyway as she’s often out). First semester was filled with a lot of partying and drinking, which I understand is normal for freshers, but it made me feel awful so I’ve not been doing it as much in second semester. Since I’ve stopped going out as much I’ve been in much less contact with a lot of the people I thought were my friends, but I’m now realising might’ve only been situational ones if that makes sense. I go to uni about three and a half hours away from my home and my friends are scattered across the country, some living in different countries all together. They try to visit but it doesn’t happen often, my boyfriend also tries to visit once a month. I guess I’m just worried about how to spend my free time next year now I’m living further away from the city centre, and I don’t want to be going out partying that much. I don’t mind having my evenings to myself - in fact I almost prefer a cosy night in, and I’m hoping to get a part time job in second year so hopefully that will give me something to do on the weekends, but I don’t want to waste my free time just on my phone sat in my room like I do at the moment. So I guess I’m just asking if anyone else has had this experience and what things they would get up to by themselves at uni?
