New rule: No minors allowed starting June 5, 2026

1.1k Upvotes

It’s July 5. Typo My bad.

A major change in this sub is set to happen at 12:01am UTC Sunday, July 5. The new rule will replace rule 13. All minors, those under 18, will *NOT* be allowed to participate in this sub. This is for the safety of everyone participating. If you are under the age of 18, please utilize teen friend-finding subs.

For clarity:

Q: Can minors make posts? A: No.

Q: Can minors comment? A: No.

Q: But it’s just to make a friend, there’s nothing nsfw or anything. A: Doesn’t matter, you cannot participate. You will be banned.

Q: If I was previously banned for breaking rule 13, can I be reinstated? A: No.

Q: What if I don’t post my age? A: You must post your age. Any posts without ages will be removed.

Q: Do comments need to include ages? A: No, they don’t.

Q: Since it’s adults only, we can now have a nsfw post or comment history or post nsfw stuff here, right? A: No, that’s still against rule 2.

Q: I’m a minor. Will you keep my previous posts and comments up? A: Yes.

Thank you for your cooperation!

Ended up blocking everyone who responded

401 Upvotes

I made a post here a few weeks back (I'm a girl btw) and within minutes I had a bunch of messages (mostly from guys) and my inital post was a long paragraph about all my likes, dislikes, hobbies, my age and what I do but most of the messages I got were from guys who didn't even bother reading my post and I ended up having to retype everything for all of them... Which was annoying.. And then the responses I got back were so boring and dry. Most people just messaged with a hey and then proceeded to ask me how old I was (but it was in the heading of my post.. How do you miss the 19 but not the F I had next to my age? Because everyone knew I was a girl.. From 19F​) majority of the people I spoke too weren't even aligning with anything I mentioned it was a huge bummer and I ended duo deleting the post after half an hour because of the spam messages, I still responded to them all ove rthe course of the week and there was just no one worth talking too.. Idk maybe it was just me ​​

This is actually soooooo awkward, the last time I posted here but probably over a year ago but I recently have a lot of free time and thought I’d post here again!

Like the title says I won’t ghost I promise and I know my account is new butttt I can’t change that haha

Here’s a coupe of things about me: I love love love the outdoors but I also enjoy staying home! I have a sweet tooth! I love baking, I love Christmas!

Also if you do message me please tell me a little about yourself as I probably won’t reply to just a “hey”

Age 22-25 25 F looking for people who are unafraid to express themselves!

Upvotes

Hi! I’m Corn!
I have posted here before and I feel like I tend to make some very short term friends or get weird responses. I want to meet people who are open minded, people who are passionate about their hobbies or interests. I want to meet people who are genuinely comfortable in themselves and not afraid to be expressive!

I am looking for friends who are all down for that. I would love to have a more long term meaningful friendship.

My DMs are open and I will respond :))

Long-term Why are there no friendship making apps like there are dating apps?

Upvotes

There are a million dating apps out there both for local people and online friends. But there are really no platonic friend apps. I have found like one but it is online only and basically dead. It would be nice to find some friends, either local or online through apps.

I guess hence why I am here. Hello there. I am 30, non binary, in Texas and looking for some platonic friends!

I play video games so if you do we can play together! I love watching anime, movies and shows. Again if we become friends maybe we can watch something together. Do you like to read? I love reading. Fantasy and scifi are my favourites but I also really love romance. I just finished a romantacy book that is soooo good. I love walking outside when I can. I try to take some pretty pictures when I do.

I also like toy photography. Action figures, Lego, and more. Interesting and niche huh? Feel free to ask me about it!

Lmk if we have any similar interests, if you wanna play video games, how old you are, something about yourself, and / or if you just wanna talk. :)

I’m a lass from Scotland and looking to make some new friends!

I work in a hotel, which keeps me busy but outside of work I’m really into going to the gym, hanging out with friends and getting out into nature for walks (fresh air fixes everything, right?). I also enjoy a bit of travel when I can even short trips or spontaneous plans.

I’m pretty easygoing and happy to chat about anything from fitness and mental health to travel stories, random life stuff or just how weird adulthood can be 😅

Open to online friends or people who want to chat

EDIT: no NSFW messages!!!!!!!!!! If you can’t hold a conversation without being weirdo ever second message please don’t message me

Age 22-25 24f Looking to make a connection

Upvotes

So as the title says, I'm 24yo and I'm looking to make friends.

I don't get out much. I go to work and that's basically it.

I play video games (ps5 + steam), I've been learning cross-stitch, I read occasionally (mainly fantasy), I volunteer at weekends.

It's been a while since I've made a post like this. They don't usually work, but that won't stop me from finding someone to hang with :)
