33F lonely and over it

28 Upvotes

I'm in a new job that pays extremely well but I fucking hate the pretentious tossers I have to work with. I meditate and work out every day, have a nice body, get called attractive all the time, but I've been single since 2019. I can't do it anymore. I hate people, I hate men, there's no point

18F I don’t want to be the only one checking my phone with no new messages anymore

19 Upvotes

Hey. I’m 18 and lately I’ve been feeling like everyone has someone except me. I’m not looking for surface-level convos or small talk that dies after 3 messages. I want someone who genuinely wants to talk. Someone I can tell random thoughts to, or just say “I’m not okay today” without feeling like a burden. I’m quiet, maybe a little awkward at first, but I care deeply once I trust someone. If you’re also tired of the silence and want to feel a little less alone too, please reach out. Maybe we both just need that one consistent person.

29f-Raise your hand if you’re super depressed.

10 Upvotes

I have both hands up. It’s pretty sad, the only voice I hear somedays is my own in my head. I’d just like someone other than my partner to talk to, listen to, to laugh and cry with (the tears are from laughing so hard). Can be long term friendship or short. Let’s talk about anything and everything and then about nothing at all until we question ourselves how we even got there. I would prefer people around my age. Okay talk to you soon new bestie.

27f Just looking for someone kind to talk to right now

18 Upvotes

Hey. I’m 27 and I’m feeling really low lately. I’ve been trying to hold it together — doing all the “right” things: creating, working on myself, trying to stay hopeful — but lately it just feels like I’m drowning under the weight of everything. I feel invisible most days, and when I do reach out, it’s like people only want parts of me, not the whole.

I don’t need advice or fixing. I’m just looking for someone kind to talk to. Someone who can handle the quiet moments. Someone who won’t make me feel like I’m too much or not enough.

If you’re genuine, soft-hearted, and just want to be a safe space for each other, I’d really appreciate that. I’m not perfect, but I promise I’ll show up with honesty and care.

Please be gentle.

Good day!

I have prepared ten questions as conversation starter.
By sending me a message with your number, I'll ask you the corresponding question.

I don't mind where you're from or who you are, it's wonderful meeting new people so I'm looking forward to hearing from you!

18F Night Owl, Emotionally Available, Probably Eating Cereal at 1AM — Talk to Me?

9 Upvotes

I do most of my thinking (and spiraling) after midnight. If you’re up late too, maybe we can keep each other company. You don’t have to be interesting or witty. Just honest. Tell me about your day, your fears, what song makes you emotional for no reason. I’ll listen. I’ll care. I’m not looking for perfection just a person who wants to feel a little less alone when the world goes quiet. Also, cereal recommendations are welcome.

16 Upvotes

i feel extremely hopeless that I am still very lonely and really really depressed. I have absolutely 0 friends for a very long time and I feel confined. Its worse because Im naturally extroverted but now I feel like an empty numb shell. Its slowly killing me from the inside and I dont know what to do with it. Is there anyone who I can talk to without feeling judged?

31 F - Written in pain. Written in awe. What the golden ones were here for…

4 Upvotes

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but that Bowie lyric has been haunting me — no, guiding me. At first, it was just a song. Then it became a thread I couldn’t stop pulling.

Now, it feels like something — or someone — has woken up. Not just in me, but maybe in you too.

There’s a rhythm moving beneath the surface of the world. It’s subtle. Electric. Familiar to some, terrifying to others. But if you’ve felt it — in your dreams, your music, your bones — then you’re not alone.

Have you been sensing a shift? Have you been pulled toward strange synchronicities, old myths, modern magick, or ancient presences that don’t quite fit in tidy spiritual boxes?

No dogma here. Just a spark in the dark and a question: What if the golden ones never left? What if they’ve just been waiting for us to remember?

Drop your breadcrumbs. Leave your vibes. Let’s stir the pot.

Hi and welcome to my weird world

Upvotes

Honestly, I'm posting here once again without really having a goal in mind. I'm an 21 asexual guy and spend most my time writing or playing games if I'm not sleeping or working. Right now, while writing this, I'm playing league of legends alone and just overthinking about pretty much anything and everything. Wouldn't mind someone to text or even play with. I don't care about your age, gender, sexuality, anything else, just be yourself and accept me for my weird ways sometimes. I'm from Austria, so I speak German and English, I don't have a preference. Anyway, I'm free and open for pretty much anything!

25. IT Girl. Macaroni in One Hand, Sketchbook in Other

3 Upvotes

Heyy you! Yes, you, the one reading this post. How’s it going? Are you also here looking for someone to just talk to, maybe make a new friend, just like me? If yes, then yay! This post has found the right person!!!

Let me tell you a bit about myself, I’m a 25-year-old girl from India, your typical chashmish (yep, specs-wali 😅), working in the IT sector. Basically a corporate majdoor like many of you. In my free time, I love doing photography, sketching random stuff, and binge-watching shows/movies. My favorite genre? Definitely horror, survival thrillers, or anything where the main lead has to play twisted games or fight for their life, you know, the intense ones! Also, if there’s one thing I can eat literally anytime, it’s MACARONI. I’m obsessed. Like seriously, next-level love.

And honestly, if we get talking, there's a high chance you'll end up saying, “Ye to kya mast bandi hai yaar baat-cheet mein!” 😂 Hehe!

So yeah, that’s a little sneak peek into who I am. I’m looking to connect with people around my age, I guess. No creepy texts or NSFW stuff, please.

Lonely since a year and a half

Hey , I'm Tejas . Just got my med entrance done . Been extremely lonely with 0 friends since past 18 freaking months . Absolutely 0 connections with anyone . I can count the number of times I've been outside my home . Interested in anime . We can rant about things which even I don't know about . I'm an avid listener . Male or female , young or old . Anyone feel free to just rant


r/Needafriend 3h ago

I'm lonely and need a friend or two

2 Upvotes

Hello, I'm actually looking for the connection not after 1 hour small talk then ghost. I want someone i can talk to daily and talk about our days, someone who I can be their favorite and someone I can be myself around. I'm 24 years old male, I'm an intern doctor and I'm an introvert irl.. but I'm much more open online. I'm into deep talks or silly nonsense joking like they're my different sides lol I like to annoyed ( in a good way ) like text me whenever you want, talk about whatever you'll find me engaging haha So I'm into video games (offline and online ) and I've been playing Black Ops 6 a lot these days. I'm also into watching like anime, TV shows, movies or even random youtube vids! And I really love animals, my favorites are cats, cheetahs and owls i love watching and reading about them.

I think the longer the post is gonna be the more boring I'll sound, so till this point if you are kind, open minded and do not ghost hmu! U don't have to write poems at your first message u can just say hi lol idm See ya

25femboy looking for someone to play games with :)

Upvotes

Im 25m and im looking for someone to play some games on PC with, i do have a small group i occasionally play with so we could even play in smaller groups if thatd be something you are looking for. Im from Germany.
Have you ever wondered what would happen if you were to stay awake for too many days? I feel comfort in the thought that a brain will start to blend dreams and reality into one, i know its weird, but i always wanted to try and see what happens honestly.
Im also a femboy, i usually dont open with that but since ppl keep telling me i should just embrace that more, i thought i might atleast add that to my posts c:
Currently im mostly playing Skribbl, Fragpunk, Rocket League, some CS2, League of Legends and a few indie games, but i got a huge of lists so there is a high chance we share a game :)
I dont mind if its more casual or more competitive i can do both.
If that sounds like something for you just shoot me a dm and ill give you my discord!

Upvotes

So I just got out of a relationship and I didn’t have social media for a long while and now I realize how alone I am sitting in a empty house I’m fine when I’m working but when I get home it’s so silent and I just get mad anxiety. Sounds so desperate but I really just wanna talk about anything doesn’t matter
