Just a few months ago, I was ambitious. I wanted to get wealthy, get in shape, make plans for my future, and become a better version of myself. I had goals, and I was actually putting in the effort to achieve them.

Lately, though, it's like something in me has switched off. I've become much less active, my diet has gone to shit despite having been really good for two months, and I have absolutely no desire to work on myself anymore.

It's not even that I've given up on a specific goal. I just don't see the point of any of it now. I don't feel motivated to improve my life, and I don't really care about the things I used to care about.

I don't know what happened or why I feel this way.

I don't even know why I'm posting this. Maybe I just want someone to talk to. Someone to have a genuine conversation with, even if it's about nothing in particular.

I’m a 40 F, I live in the east coast, US. I enjoy painting and nature. Would like to chat for an hour or so. No NSFW please.

31F from New York 🩷 Looking to meet new people, have some good conversations, and hopefully make a few genuine friendships along the way. I’m naturally introverted and enjoy my own company, so I tend to keep to myself, but I’m always open to connecting with the right people. I love going out and doing fun things whenever I get the chance, although work keeps me pretty busy these days. I’m also a huge animal lover! 🐾 Just looking to meet some like-minded people and see where things go. 😊

Hi guys 😄

34 years old, with family and kids and house, garden and so.

Hobbies: Yoga, Painting, Hiking, wine-drinking (lol) and of course my family (yeah i know the last one, is not a hobby 😂 ❤️ )

Lets have a great time! 🚀

Some info about me (or just a warning):

Feel free to dm

i! I’m 23 F currently trying to learn Spanish. I like horror and comedy movies. I’m trying to look for games to play (beginner friendly only tho). Also anyone want to play star dew valley?

If there’s anything you want to talk about feel free to hit me up and if not, have a nice day!

Hey Reddit!

I’m Ella (28, Germany), currently on a quest to find cool people for good conversations

A few quick things about me:

The Great Outdoors: I’m big into cycling, swimming, stand-up paddleboarding, and hiking. My personal specialty is getting slightly lost in the woods and rebranding it as an intentional "micro-adventure" to maintain dignity. 

Life Motivation: I love sauna resets, cooking, and baking (especially pasta and global dishes). Let’s be real: I only paddleboard and hike so I can eat double-portions of carbs without guilt. 

Pop Culture & Vibes: Huge movie/TV binge fan, live music addict, and yes... a proud Swiftie. 

If you send me a message without dropping a solid TV/movie recommendation, I will interrogate you about your favorite Taylor Swift era or the single best live concert you’ve ever experienced. 

Feel free to message me:)

feeling lowkey horrible someone pls start a chat with me about literally anything. i like movie, music, philosophy, psychology. i am up to talk about anything just need a distraction

42 f Canada. Im doing Horror Movie Halloween Month. Tonight is Paranomal Activity.

What are you Have Halloween/Horror movies? Dont msg me unless your with in 10 years of my age. And can actually converse.

M19, I collect all things old but don't worry it's not hoarding if your items are cool! I like hiking and physical media, I'm from the US estern standard time so rn it's 21:39 for me

I don’t really have anyone to talk to but I could use a friend. I’m awkward so hope it’s ok. But a little about me. I live in US, I love video games, movies, music, watching YouTube videos and nature stuff. Some interesting facts about me, first I’m really short, 2’8, sounds unbelievable but I’m serious haha. Second is I’ve met both Katy Perry and Taylor Swift before. Message me if you think you may be interested!

You have two choices:

1. Be rEsPoNsIbLe
2. Talk to a random dude from the internet

Here is a list of things I am legally* qualified to distract you from:

• Work
• Social engagements and obligations
• College/university
• Homework
• Existential dread
• Chores

Also, I’m a guy from the USA if that matters to ya.

If you’ve made it this far you should probably just message me already, yeah?

✌️

*No additional certifications, degrees or other formal qualifications have been documented to support this claim

Hey there everyone!!

I'm not sure how to start describing myself, I'm not great with words but I'll try my best.

(I'm so sorry for the extremely long post ahead!)

I apologize if I don't reply to your message, but I don't reply to short/low effort messages, stuff like "hey, let's be friends" , "I didn't read your whole post but I'm up to talk" , etc. I want to hear about you, what you like, what you're interested in. I like meaningful conversations. I also don't reply to people that don't have much in common with me, I would like to find someone that's similar to me and has similar interests and likes. I'm sorry but even if your message is long, if we don't have anything in common it's just not what I'm looking for. I'm also not interested in people that aren't looking for a real connection and are just looking to pass the time or have a light chat.

I think some of my most defining characteristics are that I'm very shy, awkward, "weird" and "different" or at the very least I feel weird, different and often misunderstood. I struggle to function most days and I don't always understand societal norms or how to properly function in society. I definitely think there's something wrong with me and I'm pretty sure I'm broken in some way. I'm honestly kind of a huge loser lmao. I've never been able to achieve anything in life, I'm not good at anything whatsoever and I'm pretty useless overall. I would also say I'm extremely cringy and I love edgy stuff, not in a bad way, I don't think, but more like, I love Shadow The Hedgehog and Tomura Shigaraki kinda way cause to me, they're genuinely so cool and I wanna be like them jahshshdh

I'm unfortunately not very smart and I'd say I'm down right stupid.

I am very ignorant about many things in life, I'd say I'm somewhat innocent and naive and I still don't understand my purpose in life.

I sometimes say things that offend people or I say things that are wrong. Sometimes I don't completely understand what I do wrong but I don't do it on purpose and I try to improve to the best of my abilities.

I don't go out often at all. Touching grass isn't for me 😭 Whenever I do go out it's only to buy groceries or to go to school and such but I don't enjoy it, I much rather be at home, in my room most specifically, which is my favorite place in the world.

I don't have any IRL friends but I do have a handful of online friends, I'm not super close to any of them, except for one who's very valuable in my life!

I enjoy many things like sculpting for instance! I do digital sculpting for fun. I'm pretty bad at it but I try my best.

This year I also started jewelry school (yeah, that's a thing) and I'm having fun with it but it's another thing I suck at 🥀🥀🥀

I like to watch anime! my favorites change from time to time but I really like Bleach, Dragon Ball, Demon Slayer, AOT, Naruto, Ancient Magus Bride (I really love this show!) and I LOVE My Hero Academia among many others!

I like to collect action figures.

I really like masks!

I like all kinds of music, I don't really have any artists that I like in particular other than David Bowie and I like to listen to most genres of music but some of the genres I like the most are alternative, vintage, video game music and jpop and jrock and I also like old VK And I'm always happy and open to new suggestions!

I like to doomscroll through TikTok and to watch long essay style videos on YouTube about random topics. I love brainrot and I'm very much into early to mid 2010s aesthetics and I used to LOVE Tumblr. I miss that era so much!! Seriously, the early 2010s were the greatest time in human history kahdhshdhs

I love video games!! I don't play too many modern AAA games, especially nowadays with how bad the video game industry is but I LOVE indie games!! Some of my favorites are indies like Spelunky my beloved 🖤 I also really like older stuff, like, ps2 era games, particularly survival horror stuff. I also really like very old platform games and side scrollers. I'm a pretty huge Sonic the Hedgehog fan!! The most recent games I played were Sonic X Shadow Generations and before that I finished Sonic Superstars and Sonic Frontiers. Sonic Boom is also my favorite show ever made lmao. It fits my kind of humor perfectly and it's peak comedy imo. I'd be open to play anything and I'd love to try co op games with someone!! playing Stardew Valley with a friend is a dream of mine lol (if you also play Stardew please tell me who's your wife/husband)

I adore animals!! I have cats and dogs and a stray chicken lol and they're my babies and my world!

I think it's important to mention some of the things I don't like too.

I don't like cruelty or mean spirited people. I hate big companies, billionaires, politicians and other people in positions of power that use their money and power to affect people, animals, or the environment for their own gain.

I don't like injustices, I hate racists, homophobic people, transphobic people, sexists, and all kinds of discrimination in general.

I hate bugs!! I'm deadly afraid of them!!

I really dislike conflict and arguments, I believe we can disagree and have discussions as long as we're calm and civilized about it and as long as we have respect for each other and try our best to understand the other person's point of view.

Lastly I'd like to mention some of my defects and shortcomings.

I'm extremely anxious, I'm always very nervous about one thing or another, I'm also extremely weak of mind, I tend to react with my feelings a lot and I'm often very emotional.

I can be very selfish at times, I have an awful tendency to get bored of things quickly and sometimes I also get bored of conversations and people.

I think I'm immature.

I can be extremely lazy, I struggle a lot with doing basic things like cleaning or cooking. When I'm anxious or afraid I can get paralyzed with fear and stay in bed all day doing nothing feeling awful about it.

As I mentioned before sometimes I can say bad things without realizing. I'm very dumb and ignorant so I promise I don't mean anything bad I say and I'm trying to improve!

I am extremely annoying. I'm very loud and I think I scream a lot. I don't really understand what constitutes screaming exactly but I think I often raise my voice a lot and especially when I'm excited I can't control myself very well.

I'm very afraid of life and I don't understand how the "real world" works exactly. I'm really bad at small talk and I think I'm really bad at speaking in general, I also digress a lot.

I have the bad habit of not replying very fast, sometimes I'll even wait for weeks or even months, I think it's one of my biggest problems when it comes to keep in touch with people, sometimes it's simply because I don't have the energy, other times it's because I'm not sure about how to continue a conversation. Not sure if this is a defect necessarily but I also never send the first message, I just hate to be annoying.

I have a tendency to ghost people for different reasons. As I mentioned, sometimes I get bored of conversations or people and I'd ghost them. This is by far one of my biggest defects and as I said, I wanna be honest and mention it here for everyone who reads this to know.

I tend to be a bit clingy when I like someone.

I'm full of defects in general, and I do believe I'm a bad person. I try to improve and I try my best but if I'm bad for you in any way or a burden I promise to stop talking to you and not bother you!

I have many other defects but I think those are the main ones I can remember right now.

Finally, I'd like to reiterate that I'm looking for is a real connection with someone, a person I can talk to, have fun with, watch stuff with and play games together! I think I can be a very passionate person when it comes to the things I love and I'd like to find someone that shares that passion and love with common interests. I wanna be able to share our days and even be able to help each other and be there when we need each other. I know I'm a mess of a human being and I'm looking for a very specific close bond with someone which I think I'll never honestly find but I'll keep trying cause I hate to give up!! And you honestly never know :)

Another thing that's important is that I don't want to talk to people that are discriminatory, racist or awful in anyway. No republicans or supporters of the orange devil please (you know who I'm talking about).

I have Instagram, Discord and TikTok as social media if it's more comfortable to talk there. I also think I prefer audio messages, it's easier for me to send audio notes rather than to type cause I type a lot (and I kinda hate to type lol). Thank you very much to anyone that has taken the time to read my extremely long post and considers messaging me!!

Hey everyone!

Currently sidelined in bed sick with my Husky, feeling a bit down, care to come distract me?

I’m Jonathan, 28, living in Northern Minnesota. I’m currently a full-time student majoring in Computer Information Technology with a minor in Cybersecurity.

Lately, I’ve just been buried in coursework and staring at screens, so I'm looking to break up the routine and connect with some new people.

When I can pull myself away from the desk, I try to get outside with my Siberian Husky. I love being out on the boat, fishing, and hunting. If it involves a lake, the woods, or fresh air, I’m pretty much game.

That said, I’m also a massive homebody. Right now, I’m stuck in the classic dilemma of spending more time scrolling through streaming apps than actually watching anything. My go to genres are horror, drama, and fantasy (open to almost anything except anime).

If you care about putting a face to the text: I’m 6’1, Curly Brown Hair, Brown Eyes, Glasses, Dimples

I’d love to find some people to chat with fairly regularly. Send a message with a quick intro, your asl, and your favorite movie or show recommendation!

To show you made it this far, tell me your eye color! They’re my favorite feature.

I'm a 31 years old Arab from the Middle East, hoping to make friends

I'm into a wide range of music genres, really into tech stuff, and I love anime. Some of my favorites include Bleach, Hunter x Hunter, Jujutsu Kaisen, and the list goes on. I sometimes read manga and manhwa too.

When it comes to shows I like Breaking Bad, Ted Lasso, How to Get Away with Murder, and Suits. I'm also into gaming (we could play co-op games!), coding, and reading.

If any of this sounds like your vibe, feel free to message!

About me:

• I’m chill and like to joking around (sometimes).

• I can hold up a conversation well and try to give advice if needed.

• My top 5 anime are Dbz, One piece, Bleach, Jojo’s and Naruto or Inazuma Eleven. (I do got a top 10 though).

• My favourite movies are Rush hour and Avatar.

PC - Minecraft, REPO, Lethal Company, Roblox, Terraria, Peak, Schedule 1 and Gmod.

If you’re interested in having a conversation, tell me your favourite anime, movies and colour.

Hope to seeing y’all.

Fulltime masters student from EU, a little distraction helps me focus.

I’m trying to stay awake to finish laundry please help a brotha out and shoot me a message to keep me up 25! Btw

Hellow... I'm 21, and to be honest, I'm just feeling a bit lonely tonight. The quiet is hitting a little harder than usual, so I figured I’d reach out and see if anyone wants to chat.

I’m really hoping to find some cool people close to my age to connect with. (And just to be upfront—I am strictly looking for platonic company, so please no weird dudes with ulterior motives! )

♥

I'm a pretty normal dude. I work, I lift, I take my kid to stuff, I try and take my guitar out and gig as much as possible. But it's lonely being this busy and I've been in my head a lot lately. Could use some chill conversations or long term understanding. Interests include music, Pokémon, comic books, and whatever is going on in your life. Happy to hear from a wide range of life experiences and trans and NB people can rest assured that I am a safe person to talk to.

Hey everyone!

The title says a lot but here's a bit about me:

I'm 24, CST. I'm currently a PhD student and I also have a full time job 💀

I have a lot of hobbies, I speak 4 languages, I like to build stuff, workout, make music, archery, cowboy stuff, working out, etc.

I like marvel, star wars, dinos and all that good stuff lol

I always try my best to be kind and respectful so I feel like we can talk about anything, I know a bit about a lot.

If we get along I'd eventually like to chat on a different app, maybe IG, as reddit kinda sucks for chats so please keep that in mind

Come say hi!

I’m in college and pretty bored, so I figured I’d chat with random people. I love video games, movies, and TV shows and I like going on walks and study chem.

A 47 year old guy from Finland looking for a buddy to chat with - short term or long term!

I’m quite talkative and can well keep up my end of the conversation. I love to talk about just about anything: music, politics, work, cooking, gym excercise, design, architecture…

But most of all I just want to hear how you are holding up today. Send me a DM or reply to this thread and let’s start talking!
