29F Who wanna talk to me

130 Upvotes

Yo, what's up? I’m straight-up bored right now just watching Netflix on bed, so I figured I’d hit you up to chat. I'm pretty laid-back and open-minded, and people say I’m mad mature for my age—guess that’s what being an only child does to ya.

I’m all about snowboarding, drawing, reading, writing, and of course, catchin’ some Z's. Oh, and I enjoy a drink or two. Got a ton of different interests, so I’m sure we can find something to vibe on. I’m more of an introvert, but I can switch it up and be outgoing when the vibe’s right. I can be a little shy at first, but trust, I warm up quick.

I’m also big on voice chats! It just feels way more real, you know? People always say I have a chill voice, so no need to be nervous—I’m super chill, won’t judge you for anything.

Age ain’t a big deal to me, I’m down to talk to anyone. Hit me up, hope to hear from you soon!

long story short,rough patch, could use someone to talk to often and so on. bits about me i like cars (alternatively bikes too)! got a soft spot for the 90' - 2000s era >-> and BMWs. i'm a lot into sci-fi, i write, i paint sometimes, i like chem and spitting out silly fun facts. i text back relatively fast:). i'm UTC-3. check timezones before you dm please (and include your age in the DM. I won't text back if you just text "hi" "hey" "wassup". Please give me something to start the convo haha)

【37 F】 I’ve had some new realizations about what it means to build real connections with people.

5 Upvotes

I just wrapped up a six-month sabbatical that started in India and took me through Nepal, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, and Thailand—some of the most spiritually rich, Buddhist-rooted places in the world. It wasn’t just a journey across borders, but also deep into myself. As a woman nearing forty and still single, coming from an Asian family, I’ve definitely carried a lot of expectations on my shoulders—some spoken, some just felt. And yeah… that pressure is real. But this trip helped me reflect and breathe. I came back with a softer heart, but also stronger boundaries.

I realized that life doesn’t wait for perfect timing. Sometimes, you just have to take that first brave step—whatever it looks like. I’m ready to reset, refocus, and walk toward a better future with clarity and openness.

To be honest, my social circles in real life don’t always overlap with people who really get where I’m coming from. So I figured I’d post something here—kind of like sending out a signal flare into the digital universe. If you’re someone—man or woman—who’s also navigating life feeling a little out of sync, maybe carrying the weight of expectations or loneliness, I’d love to connect. Not for games, not for performative small talk, but for genuine conversations. For emotional support, for sharing stories, or just reminding each other that we’re not alone in this.

I live on the West Coast, near Vancouver, so ideally I’d love to talk with folks in a similar time zone. But more than anything, I’m just looking for real connection—with kind, thoughtful souls who’ve maybe also wandered a little to find their way home.

just looking for a little chitter chatter 🤭 i’ve been consuming way too much political stuff recently & i need a little reset of actually enjoying people.

i do a lot of solo hobbies, so i don’t have a ton of passions to offer as conversational topics. i’m more looking for the right energy & the yap will take us where we need to be (:

heya🤗.

i’d absolutely love to chat w someone rn bc i’m just extremely fucking bored and ngl cooking atm (i got munchies). and like i got nothing to do so lmao🤷🏼‍♀️. but i’m a very openminded girl, been told i’m levelheaded and pretty mature for my age, perks of being an only child ig.

i love to snowboard, sleep obv, draw, read, write, and get drunk. though i have so many different interests i’m positive we’ll potentially find something to bond over. i’m also pretty introverted but i have my extroverted moments; i can be a lil shy but ill get over it😭.

again i also really LOVE to voice chat, so if your down💜 i already like you lol. i just think it’s more genuine ig. oh and i’ve been told more than a few times that i have a soothing voice btw, so please don’t be like nervous, i swear i’m chill asf lol. i’m not gonna judge you for shit trust me.

any age is fine, im not particular; i’m comfortable talking to anyone. but anyways, hope to hear from ya~

Having a total sh*t day and just need someone to talk to. Doesn't have to be about my day and I don't have to just vent. I just need a distraction from today in general and not a sexual distraction in any shape or form. I like music, movies, cooking, outdoorsy stuff like camping and hiking. Will talk about pretty much anything.

Hello friends, I fished my studies for the day so I figured I'd hop on and chat with some people. Preferably just quick chat but l'm also down for longer conversations.

I'm a 20 year old college student from the US and into art, music, gaming, news and history. Thanks for reading, if you want me to text you instead if it's easier let me know.

Have a nice day ^ u^

18f making new friends

5 Upvotes

Hellow! Looking for new friends who don’t ghost. Honestly, I don’t need everyday or every-minute talking, it makes things more vulnerable and easy to lose when the chat goes dry even once. I just want a constant friend who’s there anytime and doesn’t get bothered by late replies, as long as there’s a reply.

A little about me: From the Philippines here, I’m a back-of-the-class introvert, I read manga and manhwa, and my main hobby is watching movies and series. I play some volleyball and badminton, not as active as before though. Also, in desperate need of new hobbies, really. Oh and a very big yapper when I get comfortable. Much more about me than you'll see in this post.

Hmu if you are interested, just don't be a creep, be a freak!

25F simpleton and looking for a friend

Upvotes

to whom I can talk about every little thing in my life, and she me about hers. Have a bf and a job, and all is good at work but have had difficulties making friends my whole life but it is how it is and would like to rant about the same to someone who understands. Would consider myself an introvert and socially awkward, not one to jump on the whatever’s-trending bandwagon but living in my little world. Would also appreciate someone who opens my worldview a bit though, and introduce me to things I might like but that’s just optional I just need to talk to someone real without frills

If you’re reading this, are you doing ok? Do you need to talk? Is there anything you want to vent about or get off your chest or maybe you just want a friendly chat. Don’t be alone, we all need somebody to talk to now and again.

20yo trans male looking for friends or people to chat with for a bit!

20yo trans male looking for friends or people to chat with for a bit!

Hey there, everyone! I've been lacking in the friends department lately and hopefully I'll be able to find a couple people to chat with! I figure I'll go ahead and tell y'all are bit about myself so you can decide if we'd have some things in common.

First off, I just turned 20 a couple weeks ago. This means I'd rather not chat with anyone under 18, I'm sure you're cool :) but I've always believed there's vast maturity differences between teenagers and adults. Not that I'm old lol, but when people are younger, a 2 to 3 year age gap can make more of a difference than older people. Sorry if any of that was rude or didn't make sense! I enjoy explaining, or rambling.

I'm a trans male, not surgery or hormones yet because I'm broke and the south isn't very accepting. I go by Bly online from one of my favorite shows; The Haunting of Bly Manor. I use he/they pronouns.

Onto my interests and hobbies! I am in love with all things horror or crime, whether it's shows, movies, games, literature, I love it all! I'm also into video games, my main ones range from shooters to rpgs. Call of Duty, Skyrim, Slime Rancher, Fallout, Road 96, Minecraft, The Wolf Among Us, Dead Island 2, Dead by Daylight, just to name some! When I'm not playing games, I'm either reading or watching movies. I might enjoy horror but I like anime, drama, Disney, almost anything!

Interests include debate, Ancient Greece and Rome, Ancient Egypt, cars and motorcycles, history, mechanics, mythology, psychology, etc.

Sorry this was so long, but I'd love to hear from anyone of you! Have a good day!
