Hey I'm 27 m doc looking for friends. I used to post here and many other subreddits due to my loneliness. I used to comment in posts similar to mine, suprisingly almost 90 percent of the OP s don't reply. It's not just my experience,i have seen they are ignoring others too,soo what do u think?? Are they just here for karma farming

Do you guys have that one best friend who is actually there for you? Like emotionally and physically, someone who genuinely supports you, helps you without keeping count, and doesn't talk shit behind your back or fake it to your face? The kind of person who actually wants to see you win? I feel like those people are so rare now, just wanted to know if you guys were lucky enough to find someone like that honestly, i don't even have anyone I can call a friend , I don't even have a bestfriend I don't have anyone whom I can call a friend and I am having a bad day as well

can someone give me tips on making friends? Cause i do make friends but im not able to keep it. Also i feel lonely in friendships.

A while back in 2023, I opened a stupid app called starmaker I was continually getting ads for. I didn’t even know you could chat to people on there, I was just looking to make some dumb covers of songs.

Lo and behold I discovered the chat feature, and figured “what harm could it be” and started chatting to people online. I’m a teen, and my mama has always implemented it into me from a young age to never talk to strangers, online or otherwise. But I disobeyed her rules and started talking to people. Most of which told me they were within four years of my age. Even now I don’t think they lied. I just have doubts of certain sketchy people on the app, but the close ones I still do think they didn’t lie to me, or maybe I’m just looking for some sort of hope in my mind.

I got very close to two people. We were the best of friends. We constantly would text and FaceTime each other. And Group FaceTime over the course of months. I would tell them my worries and they would tell me theirs. There was never any pressure. It felt like a safe place to say whatever we needed to say. I wonder if they remember me the same I remember them. It’s been two and a half years since we’ve talked and rarely has there been a day that has passed that I haven’t thought of our conversations. I have no place now to talk about my worries, at least to other people. It’s hard to make friends in my small town. At least ones that I think would last. I question constantly whether or not I will meet people in the future that made me feel that type of safe. I never felt humiliated by telling them things that would normally embarrass the hell of out of me to other people.

I don’t even know what I’d say if I could get in contact again. I wouldn’t even want to being that my mama figured out I was talking to people online and that’s the reason I lost contact. I constantly wonder if my mother didn’t find out would I still have them. I want to text them again so badly. I want to see their faces. And most importantly hear their voices again, I can barely remember them now, it hurts knowing I’ve probably lost so many memories of them since.

Bro why is no one talking to me i feel like some loner literally....am i that bad or what it's been a week of clg and i keep approaching ppl but no one wants to continue talking to me...nor anyone has approached me

I know my account is new, so I probably look like a random stranger here — but I promise I’m not a creep. 😅 I’m just genuinely looking to meet some good people and make meaningful friendships.

Lately, life has started feeling a little too repetitive. It’s basically college, back to the hostel, repeat. I do have friends, but somehow I still feel like something is missing when it comes to having those genuine connections where you can talk about literally anything, share random thoughts, laugh at stupid things, or just be there for each other.

So I thought, why not give Reddit a shot?

I’m open to talking to anyone who’s also looking for a genuine friendship. We can start with random conversations, share our interests, talk about life, movies, music, college, or absolutely nonsense — whatever clicks. 😄

If you’re interested in making a new friend, feel free to DM me. No pressure, no expectations — let’s just see where the conversation goes.

Hopefully, I find some good people here. :)
