23f looking for random text and sleepca

5 Upvotes

Looking for someone to text to every day and sleepcall.

(Voice call only for sleeping and watch movies together, \[no need long conv\] just sleep. Just need breathing sounds and silence. It helps me sleep.)

I like thriller,found footage movies/series or any good plot movies and it would be nice if we watch together. I like sudoku too.

If we both click,we could talk about anything. But rather keep myself anonymous. So might won't be able to answer personal questions. Won't send pics of myself and do not send pics of yourself.

I just want to have a good time. Nothing more. No exclusive. (I hope you read it if you choose to reach) Just looping

No hard feelings if we don't have something in common i hope it's clear.

And if you're up for sleepcall, kindly turn off all the noise supressions and others in the voice settings otherwise it just feels like I'm not in the voice call cause it's too quiet. I just need to sleep rn.

If you're looking for the same thing, hmu

Have a good day

Would prefer if we were in the same time zone (pdt)
I just watched obsession, very good thriller. If you’ve seen that, we could talk about that.

Currently rewatching adventure time. Loved it when I was younger and loved all the spin offs. (Haven’t seen s2 of Fiona and cat though. No spoilers please. :))

Other conversation starters:

When should you take a shower? Night or morning? Me personally, I take a shower whenever I feel like it. Or depending what I’m doing that day. Like if I know I’ll be hanging out with friends at 3, I’ll take a shower at 1 so I’m fresh for them.

What’s your most controversial take?

Anyone remember Charlie Charlie?

Do you think Ouija boards are real?

18/f serious mature long term friend wanted :)

5 Upvotes

Please read my intro and only reply if you are the kind of person I’m looking for, and TELL ME why please :) not looking for random short chats about hobbies..and not looking for random messages from people that aren’t the type I’m looking for.

Hello, I'm Florianne from the Netherlands, i'm almost 19 and I am looking for older people to talk to. Like i have friends my age enough so please don't respond if you are under 30. Either male or female, I don't mind at all, as long as you are a mature serious person.

I'm looking for a serious/mature type of person because most people I normally hang out with my age at school are like, the talk up to a rich girl types, always agreeing with you, telling you what they think you want to hear etc. And I thought maybe online you can make friends with someone with a different type of character. Someone that is like, super confident, mature, intelligent, likes to lead a conversation. Like a person that is more super direct and honest, that would just idk, call you out when you are..Not like what I’m used to, people that just always treat you like a princess.

A bit about me: I have pretty rich parents and i'm kinda popular/princessy in school, but I can also be really respectful/polite as I did private school when i was younger etc. I play a lot of sports: field hockey, some tennis, horse back riding in the summer and I used to do gymnastics until a few months ago. And just standard girl stuff like shopping haha.

Warning I can be clingy/obsessed if I like something/someone haha

Please only DM me if you actually want to like, be a long term friend, have time to chat and get to know me, and not the short random message type of person.

Please tell me your age and why you replied to my intro so i know you read all of this 😛

I don’t know if this friendship is healthy for me anymore.

3 Upvotes

So I met this guy online a little over a year ago, and we clicked almost instantly. The thing is, we bonded because he was venting about his ex, and I ended up being the person comforting him.
For context, I only know his side of the story, so I can’t say whether his ex was actually as awful as he describes. But regardless, for the past year and something, I’ve been there through everything. I listen, reassure him, encourage him, and remind him he’ll heal eventually. He’s genuinely been trying to move on, and I’m really proud of the progress he’s made.
The problem is… I feel like our friendship has become entirely about her.
Almost every conversation somehow comes back to his ex. I don’t mind listening, and I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of being there for him, but I’m starting to realize that I don’t really exist in this friendship outside of being emotional support.
I’m almost always the one texting first. I notice when something’s wrong with him, I remember little details, and I check up on him. But when I’m upset, it feels like he either doesn’t notice or doesn’t know what to do, and the conversation just moves on. I’m not comforting him because I expect something in return, and I don’t need him to comfort me. It just hurts realizing that I pay so much attention to him while it feels like he doesn’t really see me the same way.
There’s another thing that makes this even more confusing.
I’m the type of person who casually tells my friends I love them all the time. It’s just how I am. But with him? We’ve never even said “I love you” or “I like you” platonically. Ever. The closest we’ve gotten is him saying I’m funny or that he likes talking to me.
For some reason, saying something as simple as “I love you” to him makes me ridiculously nervous, like it’d suddenly make everything awkward. I don’t know why.
Maybe I had a crush on him when we first met. Maybe those feelings are coming back. Or maybe I’m just emotionally attached because we’ve talked for so long. I honestly can’t tell anymore.
What makes it harder is that he’ll sometimes say he wants to find someone who’ll love him as much as he loves them. I always tell him he’ll find that person someday.
But a small part of me wants to say, “I’m right here.”
The thing is… I don’t even know if I actually like him romantically because I’ve never really gotten the chance to figure that out. For over a year, our relationship has revolved around his ex. It feels like there was never room for us to just… be us.
I don’t think we could realistically work anyway, and I’m not planning on confessing anything. That’s completely off the table.
I’m just wondering if this friendship has become too one-sided. I know he probably cares about me in his own way, but sometimes it feels like I’m his therapist more than his friend.
At the same time, I can’t imagine just cutting him off. We’ve been talking for so long that losing that friendship would hurt too.
Am I overthinking this, or does this friendship sound one-sided? Is it possible to stay friends with someone when you’ve become their emotional support for over a year?

27 - Looking for someone to yap to everyday!

2 Upvotes

Lately, I have been feeling a bit alone, especially as I work from home. I would love having someone to text with everyday, and eventually voice call!

I do prefer someone on EST or at least a 3 hour gap.
I would also prefer someone who initiates conversation, because sometimes I feel like I’m the one who always has to do so 🫠

I would also love to share random pictures throughout our day, or just talk about little tid bits of things that happened through your day.

I love having deep conversations, but also love the small and silly talk.

# About me:

I would describe myself as a fun, caring, calm, and sympathetic person. I would check up on you everyday, and maybe pick at you in a fun way once we become comfortable. I’m an open book, and been told I ask deep question. So if you’re into that… haha

Anyway, I’m also a big music person. I love listening to Indie Rock, Pop, EDM, heavy metal, and so many other genres! I don’t discriminate. I have over a 1000 liked songs on my Spotify.

I also love all genres of movies. But most of all, I love horror films. For me, watching movies with a friend is the experience, not the movie itself.

I don’t smoke, drink, or do drugs. I’m pretty laid back when it comes to stuff.

I also love playing video games such as Rimworld, Minecraft, Palworld, Repo, Fortnite, Bloon Tower Defense 6, and many more!

So, if you’re looking for someone to chat and yap to everyday, hmu! I would love to chat with you through out the day. I’m almost always available, especially since I work from home.

24m - I need a friend. So lonely and empty

Upvotes

Had a breakup recently and honestly haven't been feeling great. Everything feels a bit off lately. I'm also planning to move to Europe in the future, so it'd be nice to meet people from there too.

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. 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, and I'll match your energy.

If your first message is just "hi", I'll assume you're not real. Give me a proper intro. Tell me about yourself, your favorite thing to do, your most irrational fear, the song that ruins you every time, or literally anything that feels genuine.

hey, I'm a 28 year old guy from Europe that is hoping to find some friends that share common games so we can hang out regularly, but also just chat about life, share memes etc. Nowadays I mainly play League (EUW), looking forward to League Classic, but played lots of WoW too and would love a reason to get back into it, so ideally you play one or both of these games. I also played DbD, D4, TfT, Fortnite, Minecraft and other games too, so I'm sure we can find some to swap to from time to time. I'm a chill non-toxic kinda guy and some of my interests are kpop, Korean culture, crochet, drag race (the queen kind, not the car kind), gardening and travel.

Anywho if youre 20+ drop me a message and lets get to know each other :)

30M NYC Looking for Long-Term Friends

Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m 30 from NYC and I’m looking for genuine, long-term friendships, not just a few messages before the conversation fades away. If we click, I’d be happy to eventually move the conversation off Reddit.

A little about me: I’m currently writing and producing my debut alternative rock album for my project, Greycourt, while also learning programming. Music is a huge part of my life. I’m into bands like Slipknot, Linkin Park, Ghost and plenty of others, but I’m also a big fan of hip hop.
Outside of music, I enjoy gaming, photography, horror movies, and random conversations about pretty much anything. I’m always happy to learn about other people’s interests too.
If you’re looking for a genuine friend and think we’d get along, feel free to send me a message!

Hi! Let me start this off by saying that it is very important you read all of this. I am 24, in a committed relationship with my boyfriend and we have a child together. I am looking for a platonic but great friendship. I work a desk job, I have lots a free time and my boyfriend and I don’t share many hobbies together so I will be free 80% of the time. What do I do in my free time? I play video games like dead by daylight, outlast trials, coral island and so much more. I enjoy reading dark romance novels, listening to music and watching tv shows, movies and anime. I am looking for someone who I can build a genuine connection with, someone who I can rely on to communicate with frequently, whether that be calls, or texting. I’m down to do anything, let’s watch something together, play a video game or even do our own thing but vibe together! If you read all of this then I know you are serious, dm with a dad joke and we can go from there. (Anyone who messages me without a dad joke means you didn’t read all of my post and you aren’t serious about having the same level of friendship that I am looking for)

M25 looking for my future best friend and brother

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, nice to meet you. I’d like to ask you to forgive me in advance for this long post, but I humbly believe that many people might relate to what I have to say. Thank you for your patience. For all those who will read this entire post, here a medal 🥇 and a slice of pizza 🍕! 😜🤣

Let me introduce myself: I’m a 25 years old straight man from Italy and, as the title says, I’m looking for a true and sincere friendship with a bro, a real bromance.

Due to various circumstances and probably because I’m growing up, I’ve realized that many of my friendships are quite superficial people with whom you can’t have deeper or more serious conversations, nor share many passions, because they’re trapped in their own “worlds” of hypocrisy, falsehood, and interests that no longer align. I feel out of place; I can’t be myself. Unfortunately, many of my closest friends live far away, and those who remain here in the city, even though I care about them, are a bit “complicated”. I’m trying to look for a person with a good heart and the right curiosity, someone with whom we can become siblings in spirit! I never had the chance to truly create a bromance and it has always been my dream 🥹

From what I’ve heard from others and read here and there, this feeling is becoming increasingly common among young people today, and there are likely several factors at play: a society that’s changing (and not for the better), an increasingly hectic lifestyle, a mental or psychological closed-mindedness stemming perhaps from fears, anxieties, and much more, or simply from opportunism and indifference… In short, for a variety of reasons!

I have many hobbies and passions: I’m currently finishing my law degree at university, and I consider myself a very open minded and sincere person. I’m quite ironic (and self deprecating), and I enjoy engaging with others and learning from them. I’m a good listener and I love conversation.

Although it’s not easy to write in a message, I’ll list a few interests: I love culture in general, such as history, art, and museums… I enjoy reading and writing . I consider myself an “old soul” by today’s standards; I’m the kind of person who loves taking long walks, talking openly about everything, and having deep conversations—whether about fun things or more philosophical and serious topics. I’m interested in politics, I appreciate movies, good music, and anime... I enjoy physical activity. I recently started going to the gym, I find outdoor activities and embarking on new adventures wonderful, as well as long walks, exploring nature, traveling, eating, and cooking... And I love animals, I also have a dog! I never judge, I love both lighthearted and deep conversations, we can talk about anything and I consider myself a very empathetic and kind person.

That’s why I thought it would be interesting to try and making some true and great online friends, a real bromance, since more and more people, both in my country and around the world, are doing this to get to know more and new people, and who knows, maybe one day we could even meet in person. In 2026, distance has become relative! Traveling to meet new friends and discover so many new things is part of life, and I consider these experiences wonderful.

So what am I looking for? Maybe I’m asking for too much, hahaha, I realize that, but it would be nice if there were a bro who’s truly interested in a friendship like this.

Someone with the right sensitivity and open mindedness, who maybe shares similar passions and interests, and most importantly, people who, after reading this post, thought, “Wow, so I’m not the only one who thinks and feels this way…”.

I kindly ask that only serious, kind people who are genuinely interested in building a meaningful, long-term friendship reach out to me, and please don’t just disappear afterward. Let me be clear: only if you truly feel ready and interested in a genuine, sincere friendship should you feel free to contact me; otherwise, let’s just skip it! ALSO very important: NO creeps, pervs or strange things!!! Please only serious people who would truly be commited, I know creating a human connection is not easy and takes time and lot of patience, thus think twice, thanks.

I need to clarify, I’m looking for a bromance and not for romantic interests or else, unfortunately certain people contacted me with absolute no intent of creating a friendship but for other purposes that made me… Very uncomfortable. I’m not gay nor bi, I’m simply a person who wants to have a sincere bromance since I never had the fortune to create a true connection with a bro.

Thank you all for reading this far; I’m sure many of you find yourselves in the same situation. Today we’re surrounded by so many opportunities to socialize, and yet, unfortunately, people often seem to withdraw further and further into themselves, for various reasons. Thanks again, and have a great day, everyone♥️

39 Texas Remote Worker Searching

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m 39, I work remotely, and somewhere along the way I realized my days started blending together with screens, emails, and telling myself “just one more thing” before I log off. 😅

I’d really love to shake that up a bit, meet some genuine people, and build friendships that actually feel like they don’t take effort.

A little about me. I’m working on getting healthier and finding my way back into fitness. I’m trying to stay consistent, make better choices, and give myself grace along the way instead of chasing perfection. I love going for walks, especially in the evening when everything feels a little quieter and I can just breathe, listen to music or a podcast, and unwind. I’m also a big reader and almost always have a book nearby. I love getting lost in a good story and hearing what other people are reading too.

I’m definitely someone who enjoys conversations. I like talking about life, goals, random thoughts, and the little things, outside of social media.

My faith is important to me too. I love Jesus and try to live that out with kindness and grace, not judgment.

If you’re around my age and also looking for someone to talk with about life, books, goals, health, or just everyday moments, I’d love to connect. It would be nice to encourage each other, share stories, and make life feel a little less like the same routine on repeat. And if you’ve got a favorite walking spot or a great book recommendation, I’m all ears. 📚

Whether it's long term, short term, etc, im down to make friends with anyone.

About me:

Running: I ran track back in high school and college and went on hiatus for personal reasons, but now I'm back in the groove of running and plan on becoming a professional runner.

Photography: I'm not consistent with photography, but when im taking pictures, I mainly do landscape/ nature photography.

Music: I'm currently listening to hip hop, but about to stop listening to it and listen to more classical music. I mainly dress old school and I like the sound of old school music so much better than what's being played today. I used to have favorite artists, but I've grown out of that and just listen to what sounds good in my ears.

Exercising: I've been working out at home, but I've been thinking about getting back into the gym. I used to be a gym head, back in college, but it's been a while and I will look into getting back into a local gym.

Cooking: I'm no Gordon Ramsey or anything like that, but im solid in the kitchen though. I am also a vegetarian too, so no beef or pork or any meat over my way lol.

If any of my hobbies interest you and we share a common interest, comment or send me a dm and we'll go from there.

32M Searching for meaningful connections and friendship.

1 Upvotes

Hello all! 👋🏼 Like the title says I’m looking for find new people to connect with and hopefully build a meaningful friendship with. In my experience, friendship as an adult tends to feel transactional and surface level. I miss having a deeper connection with people. If you find that relatable you are probably in the right place lol.

A little about me. Personality wise I’m what I recently learned is called an ambivert. Basically I enjoy my time being social but I also love my me time and use it to recharge my social battery. I’m fairly nerdy and enjoy video games (mostly PC), D&D, Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Anime and other various nerd related items. I’m also pretty physically active, I work out, run, hike, camp and kayak. I like to cook and try my best to eat healthy lol.

If you find this post relatable or have common ground I’d love to hear from you. Feel free to DM :)
