Anyone going to the 4th of july rave tn? I’m going with my gf and her friends and wanna meet some new ppl! Let me know if any of you will be there and wanna meet up! :) ( I’m 19f )

Philly area!

After Ghana's football team looked like a disorganized mess against Colombia (GG to the Colombians), I'm interested in seeing if any Ghanaian fans want to create an impromptu meetup and support group this July 4th weekend. Maybe we can rant, eat some jollof rice, and wonder why our performance against England didn't carry over into the round of 32. Bring your own azonto dance moves and Ghanaian funeral music lol.

(All well-mannered World Cup fans are welcome to engage and gather. Lol)

Hey. 36/m in Philly. Went to a wedding recently and realized that I don’t have any real close relationships outside of siblings to the point I would have anyone to choose as a groomsmen.

Don’t get me wrong, I have a lot of acquaintances, but no one I would consider a close friend. I lost of a lot of friends from after having my child early in life and also to just growing apart. I feel like my interests are fairly difference than the usual that I see on here, but here it goes.

It took a-lot out of me to put this into writing since my social battery is typically low to begin with and i’m mostly an introvert. Below are hobbies and interests. Feel free to reach out if you think we would vibe.

Interests:

Philly Sports Fan ( 4 for 4)

Gaming (mostly sports, racing, flight simulator, COD and Battlefield)

Gym

Aviation

Kickball

Shooting Range

Motorcycling

Road Trips

Traveling

Thanks all and happy 4th!

*Edited to add that I’m not getting married anytime soon and not even engaged to my girlfriend. Just a engaging subject line*

Good morning!

I am a 42 yo female looking for friends closer to my age. Male or female.

Interests/hobbies: video games, hiking, walking, horror movies, reading, soapmaking, singing, working out, animals, music.

I m a bit introverted and prefer deep conversations about real life.

I'm normally pretty busy Monday-Friday but I have some free time during the weekends.

Lemme know if you wanna grab coffee or take a super long walk.

Hello,

I’ve been in Philadelphia for at least ten years, since 2014. I live in Fishtown. My career is in the information security space. I am also an Army veteran.

I’ve been attempting to build a social network in this city for a long time, a number of different ways but it’s been quite challenging and the older I get the less I care with having a daughter whose with me at least 50% of the time or more.

Figured I’d give it one last go before I call it permanent quits and invest 90% of my time in grinding to leave here, since ill have to return to PA anyway for my folks. I also own property here.

Im into biking, BJJ, outdoor adventures, videogaming across various platforms, stock & property investing, fitness, traveling, etc.

Get at me. Let’s go grab some beers.

Hi Philly residents just wanted to introduce myself, I’m a lifelong resident of Massachusetts who is about to move to your city (never been there before in my life) but essentially I’m leaving here to get away from domestic violence and abuse and to get far away from the people who cause me suffering. With that in mind I’m choosing to live to the city with no prior connections or support. If any of you have any advice or want to get to know me so I’m not completely alone I’d appreciate it. I’m a 28 year old adult male for reference if anyone would want to chat. Thanks in advance.

hey! i’m 24F in northeast philly/bensalem area. i’m looking to try to make some new friends! a lot of my close college friends live super far, and i’m tired of feeling like all i do is go to work 😭. i love going into the city to the bars or just driving around, going for walks, going to the movies, seeing live music whether it’s local bands or concerts, going to trivia nights, doing crafts, & watching reality tv.

Hi gang,

Wanted to throw my hat in the ring here. Quick background: I'm a flight attendant based in Philly that has been commuting from Austin. Well, my long term relationship ended (RIP) and I decided to pack it up and move to base. The downside of starting fresh is that I don't know anyone here and going solo to check out places isn't always the vibe. That's kind of a lot of what my job is already anyways. Plus, it's kind of a unwritten requirement that one of your Hinge pics should have a photo with friends, so I should probably work towards that lol.

A little bit about me is that I have always been obsessed with going to the movies. Chronically online. I love going to antique malls (collecting old pop culture junk), pop ups, atlas obscura spots, gaming and crafts.

If you have a restaurant, bar or shop that you like or want to explore I'd be thrilled to tag along. Philadelphia Film Society screening? Let's do it. I'm planning on taking a trip to the American Treasure Tour Museum soon, so if that has been on your bucket list for a while let me know. Also I still need to go to a Phillies game. Okay I'm rambling.

Thanks for reading r/phillymeetups!

EDIT: The response has been fantastic! It's going to take me a while to connect with everyone, but I'm really going to put a lot of effort into it to make it happen. :)

Hey hey! I'm Jason. I'm a second grade teacher on summer break and I'm starting grad school online soon. I'm originally from NY and have been in Philly for about 2 years. I recently moved from Point Breeze to Rittenhouse.

I'm looking to meet some new people now that I suddenly have way too much free time. I'm into music, YouTube video essays, biking around the city (especially along the river), hanging with my cats, vibe coding, and pet sitting. I also just bought Scrabble, which is one of my fav games, but I'm not very good lol. I'd absolutely be down for a game tho!

I played with the Philly Falcons soccer league last year, and I'm hoping to get back into that when the season starts again. I'd also love to get back into the gym if anyone needs a workout buddy. I have a membership at the PF on Washington and 19th.

I used to go out and party a lot with my old roommates, but I've been enjoying a slower pace lately. I'm lowkey sober right now, so these days I'm more into walks, coffee, museums, board games, biking, or just hanging out in the park. I'm always looking for low cost things to do because I'd rather spend money on experiences than overpriced drinks anyway.

If you're nearby and want to grab coffee, go for a walk, check out a museum, play scrabble, or just explore the city, feel free to reach out!! Looking for people around my age or a little older, queer friendly, and just easy going!

Hey, I'm (22F) looking for filmmaker/creative people to hang out with in Philly! I just moved here from film school in NY and would love to find a group of fellow creatives to be friends with, bounce ideas off, and make stuff with!

23M looking to meet some friends in the area. I do live in delco but I have a car and willing to travel to hangout. I just moved here about a little over a month ago and meeting some people would make the new home feel a lot more like home lol

I recently moved to philly in April and i’m already a pretty introverted guy so im not really capable of just finding people by being a social butterfly and like realistically my interests are pretty home orientated as i really like computers and video games and movies but like i don’t really have any actual irl friends, besides like maybe 1 or 2 lol. id like to find people i can go out sometimes with but who would also be down to play video games pretty much 😼

I am looking for places to go dancing in the Western suburbs (or in Philly with easy parking) on the weekends, where the dancing starts before 8pm. Any suggestions?

Anyone up for a long drive for the week here in Chandigarh

Hii all, I'm a 20f turning 21 in a few weeks, looking to make some connections with people! I recently graduated from college and working fulltime. All my college buddies live around 1-2 hours away from me, trying to connect with people closer to home. Although I live in delco, I do want to explore the city.

I've been getting more consistent going to the gym, I fish a little here and there but I still pretty new to it all. Love talking about cars, going to a bookstore, thifting, music, etc. I'm always down to hangout, talk or whatever comes to mind. I'm always up for trying new things!

I just want to make it aware that I'm open to everybody and I'm more on the boy-ish side. Edit: i do want to clarify i am gay, some people are getting the wrong idea. If youre not cool with that, absolutely no worries! Feel free to reach out!

is anyone hosting a summer halloween event?

I’m bored and have the day off, just came back from doing some army stuff and I want to go get breakfast but don’t want to sit by myself

any single 20-somethings in philly actually want to stay single?

hey! i’m 23f living in the city and honestly just looking for my people. i feel like i’m constantly losing friends to the "partnered life" and it’s getting a little lonely being the only one not centering my world around a relationship (although love is beautiful..). i've been in that loop before but i am determined to stay evolved and detached from it!

i’ve tried friend apps but it’s mostly people looking for friends "outside their marriage" or just talking about their boyfriends. i’m looking for friendships that focus on self-love and just vibing in the city without the romance pressure.

if you’re in your 20s, live in philly, and are on that same mindset, hit me up! or if you know where the single and happy about it (and sober) crowds hang out, drop a comment.
