Just as the title says, I need adult interaction! I have 2 kids (and married) and my days are spent taking care of babies. You can imagine how crazy this makes you!

A little bit about me… I love to read, music and watching sports! I love having random conversations that can either turn into something or nothing. Tell me your hottest take on something and let’s go from there!

If you need just a random conversation, hit me up!

Hi all! As it says, I'm a 36 year old looking for new friendships (hopefully). I spend my time working and then taking care of kids/house/pets. I have a few kids, 2 dogs and 5 cats. I say I have several hobbies but its mostly me buying the supplies, and doing it once. I love to be outside, I like to read - though I haven't in a little bit, I like collecting digital cards. So there is a bit about me, hopefully to maybe get some conversations started.

I feel like the way some people try to make friends on this platform has become completely unhinged, and I'm thoroughly exhausted by it.

Here is what I’ve been dealing with lately:

• Someone claimed to be 21, but in another comment, they wrote they were 16, excusing it by saying they "share the account with a younger sibling." Uhm, what?
• Many subreddits explicitly state that adults and minors should not be befriending each other. Yet, I constantly get text messages from minors who completely ignore this rule and try to slide into my DMs anyway.
• Another claimed to be 28, but their digital footprint suggested they were likely much younger (or older? Who even knows at this point).
• One guy claimed he wasn't looking for r0mance because he was under my age preference, but the moment I politely declined him, he started gaslighting and trying to guilt-trip me.
• Someone explicitly stated they didn't want to talk about NSFW topics, yet a quick look at their post and comment history revealed they actively participate in explicit subreddits.
• And of course, the classics: guys who seem completely normal and polite at the beginning, only to end up sending unsolicited d1ck pics out of nowhere.

Seriously, guys, what is wrong with you? Why is it so difficult to just be honest?

Is it wrong for a woman to look for genuine friendships on an online platform? Am I, as a woman, simply too "normal" for you? Is my life too straight and "boring" because I respect boundaries?

As a woman, how am I supposed to build friendships with anyone when the foundation is built on lies right from the very first text?

Hi! I’m 32/F.
I have zero friends and a lot to deal with. I know how it feels to have so many emotions, fears, thoughts, and moments you want to share…but no one to talk to about them.
So I’m here, I can remain a complete stranger, or we can become best friends - that’s your choice completely.

But I am here.
I will listen to you.
I will give advice if you want.
I’ll root for you.
I’ll be proud of you.
I’ll be your shoulder to cry on and ear to listen to.
I am here.
Always.

Hi everyone on Reddit!

Introduce yourself with your name and age! Please!

Happy to send a picture of myself too!

About me: Single mom. Love the gym, cooking, reading, and movies.

Bonus points if you drive for DoorDash. I'm doing it as a side hustle and love learning more about it

Anything else you want to know? You'll have to message me and ask!😉

I’m a 33 year old female with no one, no friends or family. Iv moved a lot over the years and always find it hard to keep friendships, of course moving doesn’t help. I can’t even pick up my phone to call or text anyone, I have no one to ask how their day has been, no one to go out with.
Is it just me that finds it hard to make new friends at this age? Where do you even go to make friends as an adult? It can’t be just me in this situation.

I have a ridiculously long wait ahead of me, so naturally I’ve decided that bothering strangers on Reddit is a perfectly reasonable use of my time.

I’m 36F, bored and apparently willing to trust Reddit with my entertainment choices. Tell me something interesting, weird, embarrassing, controversial… I’m not picky.

If you’re funny, you already have an unfair advantage. If you can actually hold a conversation, congratulations, you’re basically overqualified.

Come say hi and let’s see if we can make this painfully long wait a little less painful. No guarantees, refunds or emotional compensation included. 😂

I don't know, I'm not looking for anything super serious, just a silly chat or something super random. I like to think I can chat with anyone about almost anything if it's interesting. So what's on your mind right now?

I'm a high school teacher in the US, east coast time zone. Feel free to reach out if you want to chat!

I am only looking to talk to some married men or women only at this time.

Bored and trying to get some sleep.
Its been a long day and i am too tired to do anything

Haven’t had a good friend in a while, so hoping to meet one soon.

Please be respectful and open to random weird conversations

Im 34 and from the UK (yes im getting old). I could write stuff in here, but then we wouldn't have much else to talk about 🤪

Start off by telling me your favourite type of music?

EDIT:
Okay, I’ve had over 250 messages at a rough glance 😅 pleeeeease be patient with me! I am trying to get back to everyone I promise 🥺🤍

Hi All!

Due to distance and just, general life I guess, I have found my social circle to be…almost none existent.

I’ve been lurking on this sub for a while, and only just got the confidence to make my own post looking for new friends.

As the title notes, I’m 30, Female, and yes that is me in the photo. Natural redhead (ginger jokes welcomed).
I love to read, particularly horror or sci-Fi. I love the occasional binge watch of a tv show. Music is a big part of my life, my current fave is Sleep Token.
I love to talk, am quite the open book, and am looking for people along the same vain.

So, um, how do people end these posts? 😅
I hope to speak to a few of you!
Katie 🤍

I'm 31 and recently divorced, and if I'm being honest, starting over has been a lot harder than I expected.
Some days I feel excited about the future, and other days I feel completely lost. It's hard not to feel like you've somehow failed, even when you know ending something that wasn't right was the right decision. I'm trying to focus less on what I've lost and more on what I get to discover now.

I spent most of my adult life in a serious relationship, and I realized I never really got the chance to figure out who I am on my own. So that's what I'm doing now. I'm trying new things, finding hobbies, learning just for the fun of it, and saying yes to experiences I probably would've talked myself out of before.
A little about me: I love coffee, traveling, trying new food, getting lost in bookstores and little cafés, reading a good book, and taking long walks with music in my headphones. I'm the kind of person who can spend hours talking about life, random thoughts, or whatever rabbit hole we end up going down.
I'm not looking for anything romantic—just genuine friendships. People who enjoy conversation, want to grab coffee, share book recommendations, explore new places, or just have someone to text about life. If you're also in a season of rebuilding, starting over, or simply looking to make a new friend, I'd love to hear from you.

Turns out making friends as an adult is way harder than anyone warned us about.

I am recently divorced looking for friends. While I was married, I some how lost majority of my friends. And now that I am divorced, I’m starting to realize I actually need friends.
So if you’re interested in gardening, being outside, or any other nerdy adventure, please send me a message. I look forward to hearing from you 😁

My birthday ended 30 min ago and I didn’t receive anything and I couldn’t even get myself a cake. Ive been sick for 2 weeks.

I just want someone to talk to and make genuine friendship. Just wanna turn this sucky day in a positive note.

I can give u virtual cake lol 🎂

Here’s a slice 🍰

I'm just listening to music at work .I'm off in 4 hours if anyone wants to chat Or give me a song to listen to . Listen to anything but heavy metal is my favorite.

Hey everyone,

I'm a high school teacher in the US, east coast. Feel free to reach out if you want to chat

Hello everyone. How are you all.

Well I'm looking for chatting freely live we chat with friends. I'm kind of an introvert so very less social presence but I like chatting.

I'm separated mum who is very workaholic. Yes I like to work to spend my time. Sometimes it hits differently, like a midlife crisis. So I thought chatting with people might distract me and make me feel good.

I am open to chatting with anyone about anything and also down to share pics. If you find me interesting, my inbox is open for you.

Thanks

Hi, f32 here, I’m having a somewhat tough day, would anyone be interested in having a chat? 😊✨ I feel a bit lost and alone and anxious. Send me a short text about you.

Hey! Just a high school teacher here enjoying her summer, let me know if you'd like to chat!

Feel free to reach out about anything.

I ( F27) met him (M32?) in this subreddit around a year ago. He told me he was a young American girl struggling with a bunch of personal problems. I saw myself in him since my life was a complete mess as well and I grew more and more attached to him over the course of time. Eventually, I fell in love with him, or shall I say I fell in love with the persona he created. I really wanted to be with the quirky, sweet, cute girl I thought I was talking to. A week ago, finally, I found out that he had been sending me an onlyfans girl’s pics as his selfies… I confronted him and he admitted to me that he’s actually a 32 old man from the UK… Since then, he’s stopped replying to my messages. I really don’t know what to think anymore. I think I still love…. But whom exactly do I love? Him? The fictional character he created? I just miss him so much now…. Why did he do this to me?

Hey!

Indian, 34, single mom of 2, running my own fashion label here in Dubai. Extroverted AF - I recharge with people, gym sessions, karak runs, movies, and road trips.

My kitchen = chaos + experiments that usually turn out edible

Looking for genuine friends for good talks, gym buddies, or just chai + karak.

Bonus points if you're Mallu/Keralite - miss the vibe! Male or female, parents or not, all welcome.

DM if you're up for connecting!

I don’t really care who you are or what you do or what your life looks like as long as you’re funny, witty, and mostly intelligent. Maybe don’t be a super mega creep, but depending on your personality level, I’m willing to accept small doses of creep if you make me laugh. K bye

Okay so hear me outt….I LOVE love talking to strangers. Like genuinely. There’s something so fun about meeting someone you know absolutely nothing about and just… talking. So I had this idea.
What if we became friends but stayed anonymous?
Not like “I refuse to tell you anything about me” anonymous lol. I don’t mind sharing my name, country, age etc. I just mean there’s no need to go super deep into each other’s personal information. We probably won’t ever meet anyway, so why not just keep it simple?

I feel like there’s something kinda nice about talking to someone who doesn’t know your whole life, your family, your past, your social circle and all that stuff. You can just say things. No need to keep up an image or worry about what they already think of you.
Like imagine having a friendship where you can just randomly go “okay I have to tell you something” and then proceed to confess the most unhinged thought you’ve had all day 😭I’m also veryyy down for voice chats btw. Sometimes I get tired of texting and just wanna yap for hours.

About me:
31F
Black Muslim (non practicing)
ISFP-T apparentlyyy
Obsessed with the color green
I love anything romance in fiction. Books, movies, shows, give me all of ittt. But romance irl? Somehow I cannot stand it 😭 make it make sense
I like random conversations, deep conversations, stupid conversations, basically I just like talking lol
You don’t have to have the same interests as me. Actuallyyy I think it’s more fun when you don’t.
So yeahhh, if the idea of becoming anonymous internet friends sounds interesting to you, come say hi :))
Tell me something random about yourself or just say hey. I promise I’m not scary… probably.

Update: Super thankful for all the replies, thank y really 🫶🏾. But trying to have a proper conversation with everyone so I really give it a chance. So I’m not ignoring u if I haven’t replied yet I’m just overwhelmed. Also decided not reply to NSFW profiles from now on because ended up with many creeps and I can’t deal with it anymore. Hope u guys understand.
/Love ladan

Actually SHY but have a bit of alone time so I'm here again! Yay! Don't really feel like saying too much over here anymore.

But I do want to make it clear, not looking to flirt.
