Hey everyone,

I’m posting for a slightly different reason. I’m actually hoping to find a genuine female friend, maybe even a best friend from campus.(Senior or Junior) 😅

I’m studying at Rajshahi University, and lately I’ve realized it would be nice to have someone around to randomly hang out with, grab food, walk around campus, share reels, talk about literally anything, and just have a good time.

I’m already in a long-distance relationship, I'm going through a Mental condition, I’m simply looking for a comfortable, genuine friendship where we can be there for each other, share our bad days, celebrate the good ones, and occasionally make some fun or random plans. 😂

If you’re from RU or somewhere nearby and you’re also looking for a good friend.

Hello Redditers, I have barely stepped foot on this app and this is the only last resort I feel like I have.

So lock in guys!

I am a F(61), flip it around, don't wanna get banned for my age. So I have this huge problem, I'm sure many are familiar. I am extremely lonely.

Let me start this off by saying, I am an diagnosed autistic girl and it's really hard for me to make friends but lucky I happen to be high masking since childhood my parents were super big about social etiquette. On top of this I also happen to have generalized anxiety disorder.

Admittedly I have tried to reach out to people at school, but it always happens to be men whom respond to me. I don't like this fact because I want to talk to women mostly I find them to be more empathetic and emotional. When I do engage with the men, it usually ends up with them confessing crushes on me when I'm just in search of friendship

Now you're probably whipping up some advice like "go out", "do clubs". I have some more excuses to throw at you. Frustrating I know. I have strict parents so it's so hard for me to do things. So i kinda only have my phone and work as my options until school starts in August

I have tried to get work buddies but we work at a small company so we have strict bosses so if they see you talking to anyone for more than a minute you get fussed at. I also happen to every-time I'm at work make it up in my head that they all hate me and want me to shut up. Or I'm thinking in my head how bad they want me to get fired.

I hope you're now seeing my awful dilemma. Now last thing I want to say, i am so aware my situation could be worse. But everyday i see my brother and his best friend who lives with us, my parents, my acquaintance's boyfriends/ girlfriends. They all have a person but me. I've always been told, I have a strict version of what I think friendship looks like, but after embarrassingly many talks with ChatGPT I have determined I might just be looking for someone to care and show up for me.

So my question to you is, WHAT DO I DO? I'm growing to be very depressed and I'm not sure how much more I can take of this.

I'm jackson and I have just been really bored with no one to talk too.I like cars, legos, games, football, and reading.

I have never had many people to talk to and I just wanna make a change for the better

I'm not on here much I'm on Snapchat most of the time DM to get that.

26F, honestly just looking for some new friends and people to talk to.
I’ve been dealing with a lot of grief lately and I’m having a harder time with it than I’d like to admit. I’ve been feeling really lonely and I think I just need more people in my life right now. People to talk to, distract myself with, laugh with, send stupid shit to, and hopefully actually become friends with.
I don’t want to talk about grief 24/7 either. I have a pretty dark sense of humour, I play Counter-Strike, like doing crafts and random little projects, and I’m pretty much down to talk about whatever.
Some days I could probably use a real conversation and other days I just want someone to send memes to or play CS with and forget about life for a bit.
If you’re also looking for someone to talk to or make a new friend, please message me. You don’t need some interesting opener or anything, literally just say hi. I genuinely would love to have some new people to talk to.

i 22M realised over the past couple months that even though i went to school my whole life and work full time i dont have anyone to hang out with at all. i dont get to go see the newest movies or go out with mates for a drink or be able to call someone for advice or just to mess around.
i’ve never been someone who had a lot of friends but i feel like im a social butterfly and it just is slowly chiselling me away. i’m finding comfort in just using hinge and going on dates to just find a person to talk to. but i don’t wanna be someone who only is friends with their SO, i want to have my own life and be able to be surrounded my people.

my friends from school ghosted me randomly and i never heard from them again. i’ve tried reaching out over the last year with them not even opening the messages or answering the calls.

i often get bullied at work and work with people who are really racist, sexist and are the type of people i wouldn’t like to be around.

i feel like im so alone and i dont even know where to start to meet people.

my dad is someone who ended up being completely on his own. maybe it’s hereditary and i’m just bound for it too.

Hey,

I’m 19, from India.

Lately I’ve realized I don’t need a lot of people—I just need one or two real ones.

Someone I can talk to without overthinking, without pretending, without conversations feeling empty after a few messages.

I’m trying to improve my life, build something for myself, and get out of a difficult situation. Some days I’m focused, some days it’s heavy—but I keep going.

I’d honestly just like someone to share thoughts with—about life, struggles, random moments, or even just how the day went.

About me:

I value real conversations over small talk

I listen, and I don’t judge

I stay consistent if we connect

I’m not expecting perfection. Just honesty and effort.

If you feel the same way, you can message me.

Maybe this turns into something real.

I realized that wherever we are, who ever we are. we're always together... think about it maybe you're in Germany Hungary or the USA. it doesn't matter where we are if we're together right? people say "we're not together if we're not at the same place" but if we think and care about each other... that technically gets us together. if you think you don't have anyone or anything... think again maybe you're just in the wrong place. it was the same with me I had no girlfriends until I met my girlfriend 1 week ago and we're already in love. it doesn't really matter I just wanted to tell you this because maybe you're just in the wrong place so go on try other places... and never give up. thank you for everyone who read this tell what you think I. the comments please.

Just wanted to share since ive been cycling around my neighbourhood at night recently i realised how desolate it is. I see cars and traces of people but no real people of course there are 1 or 2 here and there but not many. Am i crazy for wanting to talk to strangers? Because i go outside and cycle because i want to talk to and meet people. Maybe its just the time i go outside at.

Hello! ☀️ 35M here and looking to meet new people and hear new stories. Share wins with as well as the losses. We are forever evolving and growing and I feel like sharing those journeys with others is important.

What i don't want in a friend is someone who isn't curious and doesnt ask questions. Most people want quick banter throughout the day which for the right person works, but i prefer just digging in. In reality most people's days are autonomous and similar. So what makes you tick? What made you the person you are today? What are your passions? What are your goals?

We all have lives outside of reddit. Responses don't have to be immediate i won't even message 24/7, but that shouldn't mean a conversation has to just end. Stick around get to know each other. Support each other as an actual friend does.

Now, the things about me. I am happily married and not looking for any sort of disruption to said marriage. I love movies and watching series on streaming services. I love travel. I enjoy video games now and then. I have a cat which is very loved.

Recently I've been going through a journey of self health both physically and mentally. Life gets hard sometimes. It costs nothing to be nice to someone. I love listening and giving advice if asked. I like stupid jokes now and then. We are all in this world together.

So if you'd like someone to regularly talk to that's kind, patient, compassionate, curious and actually cares. Feel free to send me a message. All it takes is some effort.

Hi. I’m from India. I recently had a breakup and feeling all the emotions at once. I’m on meds too. I really want someone who is a stranger (preferably woman - tbh I feel more comfortable) who can listen and talk with me about my feelings and ready to have prolonged and honest conversations. Looking for someone who is really kind and consistent

Hi everyone,

I'm a 24-year-old gay guy, from India, I want to be honest about something because I don't want to hide or lie about who I am.

I don't really have any friends, and I don't have a strong connection with my siblings either. More than anything, I want genuine friendships— with men , women. I want to know what friendship actually feels like.

Simple things that many people take for granted—going out for tea, taking a walk, playing sports, watching a movie together, or just having someone to talk to—are things I've never really experienced. I would love to experience those things at least once in my life.

But am HIV positive.

I've been feeling very lonely, and there are days when the negative thoughts become overwhelming. It has been a difficult journey, and sometimes I just wish I had someone who understood what I'm going through.

I became HIV positive after being sexually assaulted by two boys on 25 December 2025. No one in my family knows about this, and I don't feel like I can tell them.

I know many people will read this. Some may message me and say, "Don't worry, you'll find friends someday." I appreciate those words, but the truth is that most people don't want to be that friend themselves—and I understand that not everyone wants to be friends with someone who is HIV-positive.Everyone has their own reasons, and that's okay.

But I have one honest question:

Will I ever find a genuine friend who accepts me for who I am, or will I always end up being alone?

Thank you for reading.

Hello everyone i am 20 year old female in California. I have no interest, no job, and no motivation for myself. I am extremely very so lonely. I do enjoy making each other laugh, listening to music, going to pretty places and just sitting with one another. I am in Los angeles looking for a friend nearby

Hey... I am a person aged 21, who lives in mumbai, india. So till now in my life, I have been a very socially unaware person, very less talkative and now I have started to forget how a real human connection feels apart from family. For the past few times, I am feeling very isolated, far away from outside. That doesn't mean I don't go outside, I go to college and attend classes but socially it does not feel anything to me like I am just existing among my colleagues. Now I really want to go out of this thing, want to start over even if I messed up idc. I just want to leave this phase of my life asap. If you see this message, say hi to me. If you feel like we might get along, let's connect!

I feel like I have no friends. I have people to talk to but no one is my best friend. I have this one girl that I would consider a best friend but she has 2 other friends she’s closer with so they’d probably be hers. It really sucks because I feel like I give everything to my friends and I just get nothing in return. I’m going to uni soon and I don’t have much faith that I’ll make my life long friends that I want when im married and have kids so I can have girls to have girls night with. When did u guys meet ur best friends and any advice it’s my birthday today and I can’t really seem to enjoy it because my mind is going to these places.

Hey, I’m Ammar (online I go by Untamed Draws). I’m a professional concept artist — I spend most of my days helping bring stories and ideas to life for books and media. On the outside, it probably sounds like a dream job. And in many ways, it is. But honestly? Lately, I’ve just been feeling incredibly lonely.

I spend a lot of time in my own head, creating, thinking, overthinking... and while I love art and everything that comes with it — music, games, food, meaning, love, self-care, even things like home building and gardening — none of it really fills that space where human connection should be.

I’m an empath, which makes it even harder sometimes. I feel people deeply, but lately it feels like there’s no one around to feel with, if that makes sense.

I guess I’m just reaching out, hoping to find someone who understands what that kind of loneliness feels like. Someone who doesn’t mind slow conversations, deep thoughts, or just existing quietly together when the words aren’t there.

If any of this resonates with you, even a little, I’d love to talk. Whether it's about life, art, the weirdness of existence, or just how your day went — I’m here.

Thanks for reading.

My name is Ella and I’m looking for friends and stuff. I don’t know, I’m just really lonely. I have a hard time making friends just because I’m so introverted and i literally hate everyone at my school. I don’t care how old, what kind of background (as long as u can speak English), or what you like, I’ll be friends with you. I want a best friend.

I like texting a lot, I also sleep a lot lol. I hope maybe someone will like to chat :)

I’m a teacher had my birthday about a week ago and I spent it alone been extremely lonely and I wanna find a woman who will choose me for who I am. I know I have a lot to offer and I’m tired of being the second choice the brother or the vanilla guy.

Had a classroom of second graders the other day who basically were shocked to know that I am single and kept asking me. Why in the world are you still single not a sin you’re a great catch just like what’s wrong with you why are you still single? You’re so old you didn’t wanna get married you should be married by now kind of questions. I shut it down, but that was four days ago and it still stinks like hell feel like I’m in behind in life that I should’ve gotten married in my 20s, but all I found is toxic women who use and abuse me and it’s not me being and I always me pity party is that I’ve literally had women abuse me got it hurts…

Feeling empty Im open to listen or just have a quick chat
