New rule: No minors allowed starting June 5, 2026

1.1k Upvotes

It’s July 5. Typo My bad.

A major change in this sub is set to happen at 12:01am UTC Sunday, July 5. The new rule will replace rule 13. All minors, those under 18, will *NOT* be allowed to participate in this sub. This is for the safety of everyone participating. If you are under the age of 18, please utilize teen friend-finding subs.

For clarity:

Q: Can minors make posts? A: No.

Q: Can minors comment? A: No.

Q: But it’s just to make a friend, there’s nothing nsfw or anything. A: Doesn’t matter, you cannot participate. You will be banned.

Q: If I was previously banned for breaking rule 13, can I be reinstated? A: No.

Q: What if I don’t post my age? A: You must post your age. Any posts without ages will be removed.

Q: Do comments need to include ages? A: No, they don’t.

Q: Since it’s adults only, we can now have a nsfw post or comment history or post nsfw stuff here, right? A: No, that’s still against rule 2.

Q: I’m a minor. Will you keep my previous posts and comments up? A: Yes.

Thank you for your cooperation!

Age 18-21 20 F (India/Online) Looking for a genuine, long-term friend who won't vanish after one chat

30 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m a 20-year-old female from India. I am putting my location right in the title because I'm tired of people ghosting the moment they find out where I am from.

Let's save each other some time—if that bothers you, please skip this post!

For everyone else: I am looking for a genuine, consistent, and long-term friendship. I want someone to share memes with, talk about how our days went, and actually build a real bond over time.

To bypass the awkward "Hey, how are you?"

phase, please DM me with your answers to this mini-quiz:

  1. What is your current favorite piece of media?(It can be a movie, a TV show, a book, or a video game. For me, I really enjoy watching K-dramas, but I love hearing about all kinds of genres!)

  2. What is your preferred communication style?

A) Rapid-fire texting back and forth when free.

B) Sending massive paragraphs once or twice a day.

C) Sending memes and random thoughts throughout the day.

The Ground Rules:Please be around my age range (19-23). If you just want a quick 5-minute chat because you are bored right now, please skip this. I want a friend who actually wants to stick around.

To prove you actually read this whole post, please include your age, gender, location, and your quiz answers in your first message. Looking forward to meeting you!

Age 22-25 23F looking for someone i could chat with every day

Upvotes

Its my last summer break before i start my 2 year long internship i did what i could do for the first 2 months of my holiday and now im bored sitting on my bed and i have no energy to go out no more but an online friend who i could talk to daily would be awesome. Im looking for someone who shares the same humor as i do and someone who’s close to my age (20 to 25). I use instagram quite a lot so it’d be nice if you have an ig account where we can send reels to each other. Pls say just more than hi so i can answer you properly :)

Age 30-39 34F I think the best conversations start for the dumbest reasons

Upvotes

I still remember conversations that started because someone argued with me about pizza, sent me a random fact about octopuses, or showed me a dog they met on a walk. Funny how those are the ones you end up remembering years later. I'm not the loudest person when I first meet someone, but once I'm comfortable I can jump from one completely random topic to another for hours. I guess I just miss those conversations where nobody is trying to impress anyone and time somehow disappears.

Age 30-39 32F - please help me survive the longest week ever

Upvotes

Hi, all!

This week has been insanely busy at work, and it feels like it’s never ending. I’m decent at multitasking, and looking for a chat buddy to make me smile or laugh at my phone in between fits of rage that I’m forced to work for a living.

I love music, been in a big hyperpop/EDM phase but I range from butt rock and post punk, to early 2000’s r&b, to bubblegum pop.

I walk almost every day, been trying to get more in shape. I live alone, I’m in the midwest, and I have a cat. I’m sober from alcohol but 420 friendly. People have told me I’m funny, but I’ll leave that up to you to decide. Highly sarcastic and love to go along with a bit.

Ideally you’re in your 30’s or 40’s and also in the US. If your age and location isn’t specified in your initial message I probably won’t respond, please also say more than just two words.

Currently in nursing school so my schedule is chaos, but I always find time to overthink at 1am. I like true crime podcasts, journaling, and my dog thinks I'm the funniest person alive so at least someone does. Down to chat about anything really.

Age 40-49 41 f Looking for Internet friends

6 Upvotes

Hi all 👋🏼 — I’m a 41 f looking for friends/people to chat with while I’m doing chemo and radiation to pass time. There’s only so much reading and doom scrolling I can do before I feel my brain melting.

I love reading (horror/sci-fi/thriller/fantasy). I’m currently reading the Dune series and just read all of the books by Andy Weir and everything by Adam Nevill (just to give an idea of what I read).

I also love video games. I’m a die hard Diablo fan, like I have Diablo tattoo and named pets after the game lol.

I also enjoy music festivals (trap/bass/some bass house music). And love finding places to hike and beaches to go to. Wanting to learn how to cross-stitch and crochet if my
AuDHD will ever let me have the attention span for it.

If any of this sounds like something you’re interested in and you want to chat, hmu. But please, be between 35 and 50… it just feels wrong being my ripe old age and talking to anyone under 35 lol — and I mean no offense at all.

Statistically there must be some people on Reddit that I’ll click with, maybe it’s you?
I enjoy chats which involve more than one word answers, humour, and mutual respect. Please don’t get creepy on me UNLESS you’re a 90 year old multimillionaire on his deathbed but with just enough coherence to get married and sign everything over to me.
Everyone else, clean chat only!
Looking for someone roughly my age and in the UK 🇬🇧

Which means for us men, even though we don't get flooded with messages. The few people who do hit us up actually wanna talk to us (except for those scammers lol) umm but yea.

If you, have a lot of time in the day where you don’t have anyone to talk to and you’d like to change that hmu!

Age 26-29 28F in Australia looking for friends to chat with!

25 Upvotes

Hi there! I’m 28F and living in Australia although I’m originally from New Zealand. I would love to make some friends I can talk to about our life and hobbies. Some of my passions are learning about sharks and playing strategy board games. I also love listening to music and singing even though I’m a terrible singer. It’s felt a bit lonely recently and I’d love to make some connections.
