What kind of nonsense is this, when everything has ultimately dwindled down to nothing more than tapping away at a keyboard? 😁
One can't help but observe that in the past, people actually made an effort to meet face-to-face.
Perhaps in the future, we will all have integrated microchips in our heads, allowing for some sort of direct neural connection. :P

Ultimately, it seems we are living in the worst possible era. :P
Caught in limbo, neither here nor there.

Sup, I'm jumping in here too 🙂 Just looking for someone to chat with, strictly platonic vibes, doesn't matter if you're a guy or a girl though I'd definitely prefer a female friend 🙂 Doesn't matter where you're from in the States, I'm not really looking to meet up in person right now 🙂

I know this might be a bit out of place, so bear with me.

Look, I’m putting myself out there to help anyone who needs it, whether you just need some solid advice or if there's something actual stuff I can do for you. I'm not looking for anything in return.

If there are any other people out there who want to jump in and help me build a little crew, we could actually make a massive difference for others. 👍

Just a heads up though, I have zero interest in joining any official volunteer organizations; I've never been one for religious groups or those organized volunteer setups where you're basically paying taxes to the government—I'd much rather just help people on a personal level or if a few of us get together to tackle something. I've got nothing but free time, so why not 🙂

Shoot me a PM.

Well, here I go again, trying a trial-and-error approach with ein brandneues method, since everything else has been a total bust so far. 🕺

I'm looking for friends, age 25+, living in Chicago. Women, if possible. I strictly want one-on-one hangouts because groups (like those Psychic sessions and stuff) just aren't my thing; I end up shutting down, freezing up, getting confused, terrified, or just miserable—counting sheep and praying for an exit strategy.

I’m really not interested in guys. Unless they play electric guitar (blues/rock), because that would be the only way we'd actually have something in common or even understand each other—music is my profession, after all.

Maybe some aspiring writers would fit too; I relate to that world. Hess is my absolute idol and greatest love; it feels like he wrote specifically for me.

Aside from what I mentioned, I don't have any other interests. Nothing in the outside world catches my eye—no sports, no gyms, no classes, nothing. But I do love animals and I have a dog.

Don't bother with hookups or dating right off the bat. I look a mess, I have zero self-confidence, and I'm definitely not exactly "partner material" for anyone.

As for my psychiatric history, it's a mixed bag, ranging from clinical depression to social phobia. I'm not exactly "normal" or predictable by the system's standards, but I'm not a danger to anyone else—only to myself. Honestly, my biggest issues are sudden mood swings and bursts of pessimism and sarcasm that sometimes spiral into mania.

There. This is probably my hardest attempt yet at writing a coherent, decent ad that covers the basics. I don't even know how it sounds because I didn't write it during a manic episode; I actually followed someone else's instructions and advice from books. So, maybe someone will actually reach out this time? Or maybe everyone will just run away even faster? Who knows.

This has been weighing on my mind for quite some time... this idea for a "civilian group." It might not look like much at first glance, if you follow me... but it’s serious business. I wasn't thinking about just mimicking a group therapy session since we have experts involved, but something along those lines. I don't mean just casual socializing; I mean something with actual substance—production work and things of that nature.

pm me... *? 🙂

If anyone is interested, we can take things to the DMs for some deep, meaningful conversations—or just some mindless small talk if that's more your speed.

I find it a bit difficult to open up about my own struggles, but I am always happy to listen to yours and offer some positive perspective. If you need someone to lean on, I'm here.🙂

Count me in, too. 🙂

It's not like I have tons of free time, but whatever I do have, I'd love to use it to help someone out if I can—even if I'm still looking for a little help myself.

Anyway, I'm pretty big on being altruistic. I'm doing CBT right now, so I've picked up a few things that might actually be useful to someone else. 🙂

👋 Perhaps we could move this over to private messages, one step at a time... there is certainly no need to rush. Eventually, if the opportunity presents itself, we might manage to get everyone together. It would be entirely voluntary, of course—no obligations whatsoever.

Do reach out to me if you are interested. 🙂

I’m just looking for some friends, honestly. Anyone at all. From Washington, D.C.

👋

Female, 20, college student living in Washington, D.C.

I’m looking to meet people in their 20s—though I don't mind if you're a little older, provided you still feel young at heart 😁 I'm after someone who is always down for a coffee date, a long walk, some good old-fashioned banter, or heading out on the town (it's a massive plus if you love dancing and house music)... basically, someone who appreciates reading, music, and psychology. As far as my playlist goes, I listen to pretty much everything, though lately I've been really into house, deep house, chillstep, dubstep, and pop. If you're obsessed with country music, no offense, but please spare me... (that doesn't mean you can't enjoy it, just please don't bombard me with it). I'm not really interested in mindless gossip or small talk about who's dating whom. We can get deep, or we can keep things light... after all, a smile is the best remedy for anything, isn't it? 😁

Lately, I’ve been thinking I could really use a coffee break just to sit and chat for a few hours.

I'm down for: beer, billiards, or a movie.
Looking for: whatever you guys are up to.

About me: 21, tall, and apparently a decent enough guy.
Location: Washington, D.C.

Hey there!

I'm 24 and living in Washington, D.C.
So, I'd love to chat about pretty much anything. If you're down for a walk, grabbing a coffee, or maybe even hitting up some sports, just let me know.

I could really use a female friend to talk to, honestly. I don't have anyone to vent to right now. 😢

Hey there!

I’m looking for a girl in Washington, D.C. to hang out with—someone who’s down for a little retail therapy, hitting up the theater, or catching a movie now and then.
Ideally, someone pretty laid back and liberal—not one of those super conservative or religious types.
Just looking for a genuine connection, you know? Someone to share both the highs and the lows with.

Guys, please don't bother me—I am strictly looking for female friendship here. Just looking for a girl friend.

I’m always down to meet new people here in Miami, even though my circle is already pretty full... By the way, I run a little free Italian study group, and I’m planning on starting a free English one soon too. We can link up sometime over in Paradise or near Bajamont (Miamians will know what I mean...). If anyone is looking for some company and wants to practice a foreign language, just reach out. And don't worry—I'm actually totally normal in real life, not this internet crazy person you see online. 😁

It’s already been a month since I posted.

I'm looking for some pen pals, so if you're into chatting, feel free to reach out.

Also, if you're a fan of billiards... we'll get along just fine.

A little about me: Washington, D.C., 20.

Hey there. :-)
I'm looking to meet someone—just some good old-fashioned chatting, maybe grabbing a drink, or even a walk if we actually hit it off. 😂 I’m not looking for anything heavy here; let's just keep things chill.

A little about me: total night owl, musician, 20-year-old guy.
I have a real soft spot for "intelligent" people, if you know what I mean. I love getting into those deep, philosophical conversations, though I'm down for some lighthearted banter too. 🙂

So, don't be shy! Hit me up... I'm too impatient to wait forever, haha :-)
