Make A Friend megathread

[sunflowers]

Hello

Y

23 male here from SEA. I'm pretty boring and bad at conversations and I might take too long to reply. I'm also pretty dumb and ineloquent so I'm prob not your guy if you want to talk on a deeper level with stuff like politics or analyzing media. Don't really have any hobbies. I'm very slightly into entomology and mycology, mostly surface level.

Currently in college studying CS but probably about to flunk a second time because I'm lazy and have god awful attention span. Literally can't retain anything programming rn. I want to get better but it's all breaking my brain. I'm pretty chill, try to be funny when I can.

I like watching movies, mostly drama or comedy drama. Love Hirokazu Koreeda's stuff. My Letterboxd which I rarely update: https://letterboxd.com/Dysfunction_Al/. Hit me up with some melancholic European stuff like Compartment No 9 or TV Shows like Maniac. Rarely watch anime now but I love Sonny Boy.

Music, mostly midwest or just emo (not screamo, favorites are Sorority Noise and CSH) but really anything catchy to my ears regardless of genre. A while ago, mostly math rock (toe, a picture of her, Covet, TTNG). Prefer mostly chill stuff rn. My last.fm: https://www.last.fm/user/Dysfunction_Al. Also anything Yorushika.

I like video games. Love me some online co-op especially ones that need communication (We Were Here) though I haven't been able to VC recently. Or just like DRG, Ravenswatch. Also puzzle games like Escape Simulator. I haven't been able to finish much single-player games though Silksong kind of broke that recently. Hyper Light Drifter's probably my favorite game for the combat/exploration until Silksong. Night in the Woods for most relatable. I also liked Disco Elysium and been hoping to play more games that read like a novel since I can't read actual ones with my attention span.

Musicals. Most played currently is Octet. Love Amelie (West End), Great Comet, Hadestown, Company.

If it matters to you, I'm agnostic, don't really like labels but I guess I'm bisexual and mostly gay-leaning. Hoping for something honest and open, don't really like masking with politeness.

you seem like a lovely person.
Sadly this site isnt allowing me to dm you.
Would be nice if you have discord and still interested in making friends

Can't seem to DM you either

Haven't really been into chatting lately so I might not be responsive especially with heavier stuff.

Might be up for more casual chat though if you want to chat about stuff like movies or music.

Hey I'm a 22 year old dude from Canada. I kinda peaked during high school due to bad home environment and have basically been living like a NEET ever since. Only go out to work and otherwise I brainrot on YouTube and play games. Some stuff I play right now includes Arknights Endfield, League of Legends (ARAM mains unite), and a smattering of other titles, overwatch/rivals, Roblox, etc. If anyone wants a chill guy to talk to or just a person to exchange odd memes with, send me a DM or tag me etc

 

[Happy Cat]

19F living in the US. I like manga/anime, reading, and art. My hobbies are watching youtube, browsing the internet, and playing video games. We can talk here or on discord. If you want to learn more about me, come PM me.

 

[kufajoy]

Hey I'm from Bangladesh. 26 years old Transfem. I have lost all interest in everything and depressed over years and shutting myself without any connection. I might ctb very soon but before that I just wanted to talk to anyone about anything. I'm a good listener. Maybe not that good at English but I will try to be a good friend of yours ;)

 

[Kokonoe]

22F, from the US.
I don't have a whole lot of people to talk to so I'd be happy to have some online friends to talk to and maybe play games with ^-^

I play a lot of fighting games and visual novels, and I also really enjoy rpgs (especially little rpgmaker games), survival horror games, and mmos, too.
I also enjoy lots of anime and manga, my favorite being Dorohedoro. The most recent two series I finished were Girls' Last Tour and Shimeji Simulation.
I'm not a good artist but I do enjoy doing digital art a lot, I'm the type that only really draws my comfort characters though :p
Lastly my other real hobby is collecting, specifically keychains and pins.

Also, as someone with DID, I would love to talk to other systems. I don't know too many other systems so I think it'd be nice to talk to people who can relate :)

I'm willing to talk here or on discord, just PM me ^-^

I'm 44 m2f transgender. From the midwest/south. I'm looking for another girl to talk with. I don't do well with men due to an incident in the past, which is why I'm needing a female to talk with. Maybe we can help each other find a reason to live.

hmm does it work now?

 

[Cyc]

hmm does it work now?

No it doesn't. I just looked at when you joined, I think you need to wait 24 hours before your DMs open. They'll probably open in a few hours

 

[SASU-KE]

It's going to take some time for it to open. You need a certain number of posts. There are a couple of prerequisites. Not sure what they are exactly.And yeah, 24 hours as well.

[elterskiz]

25 genderqueer living on the east coast of america. i used to make friends online so i wanted to try that out again. im trying to learn how to be a person again. i play video games on ps5 and pc, im on and off playing apex legenda (im ass at marvel rivals unfortunately). currently watching gachiakuta, the pitt, and getting into a song of ice and fire universe!

 

[skeletontree]

33, nonbinary (he/him, they/them) from Germany.
Things that help me from time to time:

• music (listening - the sadder, the better - and also writing my own)
• watching sad and emotionally moving films and series
• reading lovely mangas, novels and comic books
• creating memes to help friends cope
• being in nature (the fewer people, the better)
• animals (some of my favourites: spiders, raccoons, moths)
• listening to stories and experience from fellow souls

Some random facts about me:

• I lived in Japan for quite some time as an exchange student
• As a teenager, I was never able to envision a future in which I'd still be alive (I honestly thought I'd be long gone before even hitting 18)
• PTSD has been draining almost all of my energy since I was 14
• I met Robert Englund (Freddy Krueger) at a horror con when I was 12 - to this day I don't know how I ended up watching those movies that young
• Many years ago, I once sat late at night with my beloved Akita Inu (my parents' dog), holding her paw and telling her that one day I'd be gone, but she would still be here - enjoying treats, sunbathing on the balcony, and reigning as the queen of sliced cheese
  A few weeks after my last stay in a psych ward, I learned she was gravely ill and would be put to sleep. On the day she died, I held her paw again and thought I'd give everything to take her place so she could live on without pain or worry
• A mix between punk and goth

What I do nowadays:

• staying up late (sleep is hard), sitting on the floor and listening to music
• acting in a stage play (which is actually a farewell gift to some friends and colleagues - they just don't know that part)
• proceeding to plan my way to ctb

I've never had a lot of friends, but the ones I did make were usually found through similar life-altering experiences (toxic or transphobic parents, abuse, bullying, etc.) or through music and art. I value quality over quantity.

Sometimes just knowing there is someone out there who understands what you're dealing with right now can make the journey (or even little moments) a lot less frightening and heavy. I'm here for the quiet moments and for when things get rough. No one should be left behind.

If you just need someone to listen - without judgement or commentary - that's fine.
If you want another perspective, that's fine too. If you need time, no matter how much, that's also fine. Your limits and your pace.
We help each other, no matter where the road takes us. And we try to get there in the least stressful way possible.

I don't know how long any of us are here - but while I am, I'm open to listening and connecting. So feel free to DM me.

Hey

42m from UK

Had a really good life until I fucked it all up a few years ago. Was married, had C suite job, owned house in London etc. fell into trading / gambling addiction and lost everything.

Had to move back in with my parents. Went bankrupt. Don't see much point carrying on any more. Lost touch with most of my friends. Life is very small now.
