22 F, I need a friend who happens to be a mom of an adult child.

9 Upvotes

I'm not sure if this is the right place. But I'm really needing a motherly figure to talk to right now, specifically moms whose kids are around the same age as me. My own mom decided to be a stranger all of a sudden since I graduated and I haven't wrapped my head around that sudden decision yet.

24f| looking for friends

Upvotes

Looking for some genuine online friends because life gets kinda boring sometimes.
I’m a mom, and when I’m not chasing my kids around, I’m usually at the gym, listening to music, reading, gardening, laughing at memes, or having random late-night conversations about literally anything. I can be a little weird, so bonus points if you have a good sense of humor.

M26 what is your opinion on arguments?

Upvotes

How is everyone doing? I'm wondering what your opinion on arguing is in general? Do you think it's good to argue often or not? What is your style of arguing? Do you go for efficiency or feelings more? Very curious about your mindsets on it.

I can't wait to have some cool convos with you all about this or about whatever lol doesn't have to be related if you just wanna be friends.

20 F Looking For New Friends :)

5 Upvotes

Hey! I'm 20 and looking to make some genuine friends. I'm currently in college studying social work. In my free time, I enjoy going to the gym, watching movies and TV shows, listening to music, spending time outside, and trying new things.

I'm pretty easygoing and enjoy talking about almost anything, whether it's random everyday stuff, funny stories, or more meaningful conversations.

Feel free to message me!

2 Upvotes

I'm from Scotland and I work from home, so I usually have a lot of time to talk, I play a lot of games, currently on PC and PS5, and watch too many movies as well. I'm into completely random discussions and questions, I would prefer to speak to people with similar interests as me and open to talk daily and use discord as well. although not mandatory. Dm me if you want to talk 😄

20F wanting friends

Upvotes

Figured I’d give this another shot. I’m a 20F healthcare worker from NYC looking for someone I can genuinely become friends with. I’m hoping to find a long-term friendship with someone I can text throughout the day, laugh with, and eventually hang out with if we click.
I’m definitely shy at first, but I warm up pretty quickly once I’m comfortable.

A little about me: I love hiking, walks in the park, photography, traveling, museums, trying new foods, listening to music, baking, and playing video games. I’m always down to find a new food spot (especially if they have good smash burgers 😭), check out a gaming café, grab coffee, or just explore the city.

I’m looking for people around 20–26 who are also interested in building a genuine friendship. Whether we’re gaming, sending each other random TikToks, talking about our day, or planning a weekend adventure, I’d love to meet someone who’s looking for the same thing.
If you’d like to chat, send me your age, location, favorite meal, and a little about yourself!

40M | Seeking someone to help me procrastinate more efficiently

Upvotes

Working from home has turned me into the guy who holds full conversations with his dogs like they're part of the team-and honestly, they're better listeners than most coworkers.
A little about me:
• I'm in the gym 6 days a week, mostly because I enjoy it and partly because my joints like to remind me I'm not 25 anymore.
• Raised on a ranch, so I'm equally at home outdoors or battling spreadsheets.
• Big fan of hiking, training my German Shorthaired Pointers, and anything that gets me outside.
• Can talk about fitness, dogs, random bits of history, or why mosquitoes seem to single me out like it's personal.
I'm not looking for anything overly serious-just someone genuine to chat with, swap stories, laugh at dumb memes, and make the workday a little less boring.
Extra points if you're open to exchanging a selfie early on
—always nice to confirm we're both real people and not a group of raccoons in disguise.
Tell me a random skill you have, and I'll rate it on a completely subjective scale.

Thanks for reading and have a great day ^_^

Wanna share a braincell with me? (ദ്ദി˙ᗜ˙)

Upvotes

28m, weird (in a good way i promise), curious, patient, understanding and i come with bad jokes. i'm from Bra(S)il and yes still grieving over world cup and willing to throw fists with any norwegian that wants to try me (unless you're over 1.80cm). not sure how to do that so i'll just list the things i'm into:

video games - I play on PC exclusively, and i mostly play competitive games. lately i've been a lot into overwatch. down to play chill games too or watch/stream gameplays. some of my favorites games are: deadlock, smite, life is strange, the last of us, need for speed. tell me what yours.

tv shows and anime - i try to keep up with the new releases and rn i'm just finishing widow's bay. my list for shows and animes is super extensive and i'm easily entertained and watch pretty much anything. some of my favorites are: mr. robot, derry girls, severance, breaking bad, dorohedoro, haikyuu, relife, golden kamuy, to be hero x, saiki kusuo, you and i are polar opposites. not big into movies but i wanna see obsession since everybody seemed to love it. if you watched it let me know your thoughts :>.

music - i listen to a lot of different genres and have some random playlist that i would love to share. rn i'm in my alt/indie rock era and my favorite artists are: radiohead, the strokes, qotsa, arctic monkeys, the smiths.

what i'm looking for - ultimately looking for something long term and someone that like to share music, memes, funny videos, life updates and offer some support when one of us is spiraling but i also don't mind having short and fleeting conversations. also i'm looking for a more text based friend and i'd be down to vc after we get comfortable with each other (yes im shy).

ps: please if you reach out be at least 23yo and send some info about you. i have no idea how to deal with his and heys :<. I absolutely LOVE to talk and i'd love to be friends!!
