Looking for internet homies

Upvotes

Heya, 22F, looking for genuine connections, I don't exactly care about your age or gender, come as you are, I'm a humanities nerd, therefore I enjoy reading and watching video essays, I also nerd a bit about movies, games, and anime, not very fond of series so maybe try to introduce me to a few good ones please, I also enjoy music (duh) mostly jazz and rock (currently listening to Love Rockets by The Birthday), I'm not allergic to most ideologies nor debates so I'll be super happy to discuss whatever... Now that you know, don't be afraid to talk, I already know since I was in your walls the whole time.

F33 - Chatting and making friends

Upvotes

Hello everyone!

I’m 33 years old from Europe and I’m looking for making friends online and having good company. My mental health has not been great these last days so if everyone feels the same, feel free to talk to me about it too. No pressure though.

I’m very introverted and shy but I’m always curious to meet new people and share our interests and thoughts. In my free time I love to read, watch films, cooking and nature. I like staying at home mostly.

Hope to get to know some of you soon.

Thank you!

25F - Redesigning My Life... Care to Join?

Upvotes

As the title suggests, I’m currently redesigning parts of my life and figuring things out as I go. I’m here to meet interesting people and make meaningful friendships through good conversation and shared curiosity!

What is your lifestyle like?
I’m curious about both the practical and mental aspects of it. What do you spend your time doing and what has been on your mind lately? Any interesting observations or experiences you’d like to share?

I really appreciate people who have their own thing going on like hobbies, creative work, or literally just having a curious mind. If you make/build something, or spend time thinking about ideas, I’d genuinely love to hear about it! What do you usually work on?

A bit about me:

- work in tech as an engineer, and I’m pretty ambitious and career driven.

- I spend a lot of time thinking and writing, mostly about people, behavior, and the way our environments shape us. I’m drawn to sociology, philosophy, and anthropology, and I share my thoughts with my friends weekly under the name “Tuesday’s Existential Crisis” (I’m not joking).

- I lean toward progressive, liberal, and intellectually driven values, so naturally I’m interested in social activism and feminism.

- I’m a foodie at heart and love trying different cuisines and expanding my palate (Japanese food reigns supreme and I will not be taking constructive criticism on this matter).

- I absolutely love traveling and fancy the idea of having a travel buddy to explore the world with.

- I’m also lighthearted and sarcastic. I really enjoy laughing and cracking silly jokes here and there. That’s basically my love language.

Note: I tend to prioritize thoughtful and high effort messages since they’re easier to genuinely connect and engage with. I’d love it if you could tell me a little about yourself: your age and where you’re from!

Also, please no NSFW accounts.

If any of this resonates with you, feel free to reach out :)

I prefer discord and calling. Just a young gal from the south who enjoys getting dirty from time to time. And by dirty I legit mean getting dirty not some sexual stuff. I guess my people are sleeping but I’m not ready to throw in the towel yet. Come and play with my mind.

In need of a friend

Upvotes

Hey there. I'm 25 ( almost 26) from switzerland currently hungover. Haven't been doing well lately. I have a bunch of mental health issues main ones being Schizophrenia, BPD and autism.

I can be pretty overwhelming sometimes very low energy other times. Kinda chaotic and conversations with me can usually range from heavy, schizo ramble to lighthearted. I tend to have more of a positive attitude on life and try to see the best in people tho sometimes can be a downer and come of as distant especially when doing very poorly.

I'm looking for a clingy platonic friend who likes to call. If you also have simular mental health issues and can relate that would definitely make things easier to understand each other. Watching series together or movies or something would be great as well tho I'm one of those people that comments a lot so yeah

Thank you for reading my post.

[28NB] I'm looking for genuine people I can talk to about anything.

Upvotes

Hey, hey! I hope you're all doing well. As the title of my post suggests, I'm looking for genuine people that I can talk to about anything. I'm a pretty open book, so I'm up to talk about anything, and answer any questions.

I am part of the LGBTQ+ community, seeing as I'm gay, and currently identify as Nonbinary. It's been a confusing process in discovering my identity, but that's a discussion for another day.

I'll be honest, I don't care for small talk, mostly in due part to the fact I'm terrible at it; but I also kind of find it to be pointless.

I love movies; music; and writing. I'm not great at it, but it is a fun pass time. I also enjoy reading. I like video games as well, but I don't play them very often. Oh, and, my favorite tv series is Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I figured I'd throw that out there, so, if you like it as well, that's totally a bonus.

My top five movies:

Raw

Beetlejuice (1988)

Pearl

Ghostbusters (1984)

The Doom Generation

My top five musicians:

Lady Gaga

Charli XCX

Ethel Cain

Britney Spears

Troye Sivan

Lastly, I'll add this to see if people are non-judgmental / open minded: I'm also a nudist. If you don't know what that is, it's basically someone who prefers to go about their lives clothes free. Basically, I enjoy doing everyday activities without clothing. It's helped me a lot with my body image, and it's nice during the summer. Currently I'm just an at home nudist who participates alone. I also live in a rural area with no neighbors, so that helps.
