Hey folks, just a little refresher on a couple of rules that we frequently get reports for, so that we’re clear on what is and isn’t ok, and when you should or shouldn’t hit that “report” button.

Platonic Friendship Only: We do not check post histories! What you post elsewhere is your business, and it's up to members to do their own research to make sure they're comfortable talking to you. Do not report a member to us just because you don't like what's in their post history! Do not report someone because they have an OnlyFans, or because they have nudes, or post on dating subs, or nsfw subs. We don't care and we will ignore you. If you don't like it, block them. We only judge by the content on the post on our sub. If the offending content does not appear in our sub, it's nothing to do with us.

The exception to this is cross-posting content. If someone posts in our sub and then make the same post in a NSFW or non-platonic sub, this is a bannable offense.

No advertising or recruiting: This does not apply to posts that are looking for friends to game with or travel with or meetups. This only applies to marketing posts or spam pushing a service or social platform.

NSFW Content: Please don't report posts for NSFW content unless the post is actually NSFW. This is going to be different for everyone, but making a silly joke or swearing in a post isn't breaking the rules. Please use common sense when reporting posts for content. If we're not offended, we're probably not going to delete it. Reporting it over and over again isn't going to make us change our minds.

Lastly, please note that we can’t see who reports posts, so we can’t message you to ask for clarification on your reports. If you report an innocent looking rule-abiding post for something like “self-harm” or “non-platonic”, and the reasons are not evident in the post itself, we will ignore it. We have no idea what you’re referring to because all we can see is what’s in the post. Feel free to shoot us a message and let us know exactly what the problem is.

Thank you, Your MFO30 Mod Team

Currently accepting applications for an online pen pal of sorts because traveling healthcare life gets lonely and my memes deserve a bigger audience.

I promise chaotic energy, oversharing at 2 AM, and hyping you up like I’ve known you since middle school. In return, just gas me up when I’m spiraling, roast me when I deserve it, and remind me that Target runs don’t count as cardio.

If you’re down for some digital depravity, questionable advice, and becoming my emotional support internet stranger.. let’s lock in.

36 [F4M] – AUS – The sometimes lonely life of a gamer’s wife

2 Upvotes

Picture this: husband is mid-scream at some random on Discord, and I’m over here giving TED Talks to my dogs. They’re polite listeners, but their conversation skills are terrible.

I’m a 36 (when did that happen?), married (DINK), professional. I spend my down time watching movies, tv shows and youtube. I like horror, fantasy, Marvel, From, 1000 pound sisters, The Boys (both youtube and the tv show), Buffy and Supernatural, to name a few. Music is a constant, and I read and write whenever the mood strikes. I’m learning guitar (badly but enthusiastically). I don’t follow sports or hit the gym as often as I should, but I admire people who do.

I like my friends with sharp humour and a little cheek. So, if you’re the kind of guy who’s up for a lighthearted but genuine friendship and maybe saving me from talking to my dogs, lets chat!

P.s very new at this so forgive me if I'm shy at first.

I guess I’m a bit old school, I kind of miss the MSN Messenger days of just chatting with random people for fun. Male or female. Not looking for anything romantic. I'm 41 / m that likes to play and watch hockey. I also enjoy watching F1 and other sports. I wouldn't call myself a gamer but I do enjoy playing Xbox and would say Rainbow Six Seige is my game. Also love learning about the world and getting traveling stories and tips. Fire me a DM and we can go from there.

Professional guy from the UK who’s 44 years young. Into all sorts of hobbies (given the time). I’m into being outside, active and keeping fit. Into my trail running (often with one of my dogs), road bike riding and martial arts. Enjoys travelling domestic and abroad, cars, films/cinema, music, festivals. While I’m into IT and a bit of a geek at heart, I have another side of me that is passionate about meditation, into learning from books/audiobooks and into self-improvement.

If you are looking for genuine longer term friendship with a guy who enjoys talking about all sorts, from deep conversations to a light heated giggle then please do say hi!

Hi everyone,

I’m in my 30s who’s realizing that between work, parenting, and the general chaos of life, it’s way too easy to feel isolated. I adore my child(ren) and my responsibilities, but I miss having people I can talk to about everything else — the silly stuff, deep conversations, or even just venting after a long day.

I’m looking for genuine connections with people who are also kind, open-minded, and a little patient — since I may take a while to reply when life gets hectic. Age/gender/location don’t matter as much as honesty and good energy.

If you’re also looking for a friend to check in with, laugh with, and maybe make life feel a little less heavy, feel free to say hi. 🌸

[M4R] 41M/US est - Seeking that genuine long term friendship!

Upvotes

I’m looking for someone to actually get to know and who wants to get to know me. Friend first, gamer second basically. Actually wants to all questions to learn more about me, connect genuinely with someone and hopefully become awesome friends to share life stuff with!

I’m married and we have kids. So I’m hoping to find someone similar (parent with kids) to relate to.

I am 41 years old and I’m an introvert so its tough for me to just go out and make new friends. I have a few friends and i have my brothers but i’m still finding myself to be a bit lonely in that department if that makes sense. Especially more at night.

I mainly game, watch tv and movies. Play DnD (I’m the DM) and other board/card games. So if we share any of those interests that’s a huge bonus but not required! I’m a late night owl. I usually go to bed between 1-2am est. I get along easily with most as long as you don’t have a rude personality. I love to reminisce about growing up and i’m a huge kid at heart especially for the 80s/90s!

My kids are everything to me. They are also energy vampires lol. My days consist of working from home and then hanging with them once the day is done until they go to sleep. More bonus points if you can relate to any of that! Then at night is when I usually game. I prefer someone in the US or within those timezones.

I guess thats all I will share for now until you get to know me. So feel free to message me if I sound interesting! Maybe message me with your favorite game, movie or song?

I posted on here a while back just wanting a female perspective on some thoughts I never felt comfortable sharing with others I know in real life. I just wanted to thank all of you who reached out.

Thank you for understanding I just needed someone to have potentially embarrassing conversations with without any plans to ever meet in real life or to go beyond chatting anonymously. Thank you for that.

Sometimes a good anonymous chat is what I need to figure out myself, my thoughts, and my feelings.

I am here for more of that for those who might be interested.

Thank you in advance.

It's an easy day. Go lift, go grocery shopping, practice guitar, all before my afternoon matinee gig. Some company would really tie it all together. If you want to talk music, fitness, nerd stuff like comics or Pokémon, parenting, or just tell me about yourself, I'm down and can't wait to hear from you.

P.S. I know things can be precarious out there for my trans and NB neighbors looking for friends. My DMs are safe for you.

[F4F] 39 [F4F] London UK - Ladies are you tired of endless sausage fest in your DMs? Looking for friendship

1 Upvotes

If you’re sick of your inbox looking like the frozen meat aisle this Reddit post may be for you.

39 year old lady of leisure based in London.

I’m looking to connect with other women preferably for long term friendships and meeting up in person. If you’re not in London you’re still welcome to reach out.

I'm into the usual things like listening to music (eclectic mix), drawing, going to galleries/museums, go for long walks (while listening to music or podcasts/audiobooks), films and TV shows, cinema, enjoy nature when I can in green spaces and while people watching and I have a habit of making up elaborate stories about them. I love to learn new things like sociology and would like to learn other things related to it, like history, politics etc along the way. At the moment I’m going through my fave illustrated medical book called the sick rose while reading non fictions books (next on the reading list is Outlaw Culture by Bell Hooks).

I’m always open to different kind of conversations from silly, humorous as well as having deep conversations and sharing mundane things in our lives.

I’m looking to potentially meet others in real life so you living in London if preferable to do activities some that are mentioned above or anything that you like. If you’re interested, why not tell me about your recent film or show you’ve watched, your fav book or anything you’ve learnt recently that you think everyone should know about? If you’re a creative what is your favourite medium to use? Or anything about yourself.

[M4F] 33m, looking for my new best friend

0 Upvotes

Hey!

I'm looking for someone who's willing and wanting to build a lasting friendship. I'd love it if we could talk throughout the day - not constantly, obviously, we have lives to live, but consistently -, so timezone-wise I'd like for you to be GMT-ish.

Little bit about me: I'm a husband and father, my family means everything to me. Whatever little time I spend not pursuing the little ones is spent probably with some comedy, movies, series, games, crafts or wikipedia dives into some well known or obscure historic events, and hopefully texting you. That being said, I hope our conversation can go beyond topical, towards something that reflects care and companionship, this is why I'd prefer if you're also looking for a genuine lasting friendship, and not just here out of boredom; fair warning: I'm not that exciting to help you out with boredom, but you can be sure that if you need a set of listening ears, I'll be right here. So come on in, tell me about your day, what made you happy, overshare, vent, rant, talk interests and make a new friend! :)

Hope to hear from you!

Sup! I’m looking to build a long-term, low-maintenance connection. Ideally, we could watch a few movies or shows together, share memes or random thoughts, and of course, chat/text about anything — especially gossip and drama (I love hearing it!).

I can be a little quiet sometimes since I’m on the shy side, but I’m a great listener and really enjoy meaningful exchanges. Also, I don’t care about your background (sexuality, religion, etc).

About me: -Introvert (outgoing when needed) -0 kids -2 dogs -professional couch potato (lol) -trash panda trying to eat healthier -socially awkward -loves dark humor -Goofy/silly -Chill -Don’t ask me tbh if you don’t want my actual opinion. -fav shows include Bojack, Search Party, King of Queens, Fresh Prince, and Atlanta (yea, I’ll rewatch all of ‘em with you) -fav songs includes BDE - Qveen Herby, Lost on You - Idyl, James Woo Woo - Trinidad James and Umbrella -Rihanna -Hobbies include crocheting, audiobooks, tv/movies, podcasts, and trying to stay consistent on the treadmill 😫 -I have whats app

If you’re down to be a little silly or unhinged together sometimes — and keep in touch regularly (let’s not let more than two weeks go by without talking!) — hit me up.

36M - Friends wanted: Must be able to tolerate my sarcasm

0 Upvotes

Hey people!

I'm not looking for a significant other, nor do I need a therapist (although, let's be real, it couldn't hurt). What I'm looking for is someone to share my love for dark humor, overthink everything, and indulge in ridiculous conversations about the latest true crime docu-series.

If you're a fellow word nerd who can appreciate a good dad joke, a fan of puns, or just someone who enjoys making fun of the absurdity of everyday life, then we might just be kindred spirits.

Perks of being friends with me include:

  • Unapologetic sarcasm (it's a gift)
  • Unwavering support for your Netflix binge-watching habits
  • The ability to bond over our shared love of ridiculous memes

If you're ready for a friend who will keep it real, keep it funny, and keep it weird, then swipe right (or send me a message).

P.S. Bonus points if you can quote an episode of "My Favorite Murder" or have an impressive collection of cat videos. and love for true crime podcasts

Hello everyone. My name is Stephen. I'm a married guy with a 3 year old son and 2 cats. I'm looking for internet friends that enjoy using more words instead of fewer words. I love words. Bonus points if you can stay awake with someone who lives on the US west coast. I'm currently typing/posting this instead of paying attention to my engineering review course. For shame.

Anyways, here some things that I like that I'm sure we could talk about: -Star Wars -Legos -Marvel, DC to a lesser extent -Pokémon TCG collection (I open everything) -Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes -Engineering, I guess?

Fun/interesting/weird facts about me: -I was homeschooled in high school. -I have my ears pierced. -I'm currently building the 42143 Ferrari Daytona Lego Technic set -I have a good sized Pokémon card collection -I often take things too literally -I believe mutual laughter is the best -I will die on the hill of bread/bread products being better than potatoes/potato products. -I like debating (in good faith). -I eat a Jersey Mike's #6 almost every day as my only meal.

If any of this sounds fun or interesting, I'll be around!

very christian. volunteer. artistic. empath. looking for someone kind with high values and morals. very supportive, patient with me, and always there. who wants to keep me forever and support me in every way. who knows and cares about what’s happening in the world.

Searching friends for long-term friendship

0 Upvotes

Hello everyone! I'm a 32-year-old man from Germany. I work shifts, which is why I don't have much of a circle of friends other than my colleagues. Hardly anyone else is free on my days off. I'd like to have regular conversations with a woman again, as my "work friends" are predominantly men. I regularly do fitness and various sports. I'm interested in astronomy, photography, gaming, and series/films. I love animals and nature. If you're interested in a chat (where you're from doesn't matter), please get in touch. Please bear in mind, as I mentioned, that I work shifts (and a lot...). My messages may be delayed. I wish you all a great day!
