Updated Rules For The Sub

14 Upvotes

Hi all,

After a few people messaged me asking to enforce some stricter rules on here, I have updated the rules section. But I also wanted to make a post as most people will not read them.

Rules:

  1. You must be 18 or older to post here. If you are under 18 your post will be removed.
  2. No hate speech of any kind. Be nice to each other at all times. We live in tough times, let's just enjoy ourselves.
  3. Explain where you are located clearly. Not everyone lives in Dublin or a big city.

Post Titles

In order to promote conversation and make things clearer for people, I am going to make post titles mandatory have the format "Age - Gender - Location - Description". This will allow people to know a little about you before clicking into the post.

Happy posting!

30M in Cork, Finding Real Friendships as an Introvert Isn’t Easy

3 Upvotes

Over the last 15 years, I’ve lived in 5 different European countries for education and work. Along the way I met a lot of great people, but over time everyone naturally ended up on different paths with busy schedules, relocations, and life changes.
I moved to Cork about 4 years ago and plan to stay here long term. Since settling in, I’ve been hoping to build more meaningful local connections with people who enjoy relaxed conversations and shared interests rather than nightlife or partying.

A little about me:
30M, married
Working a regular 9–5
Evenings are usually quiet — cooking, relaxing, or unwinding after work
Weekends often involve short walks despite the Irish weather 😄
Into photography
Big watch enthusiast and recently learning more about watchmaking

Enjoy thoughtful conversations and hearing about other people’s experiences

Last Christmas I decided to stop drinking and focus more on my health and routine. Since then I’ve lost nearly 20kg and generally feel much better both mentally and physically.
I’m naturally more introverted at first and tend to listen more than I talk, but once I’m comfortable I enjoy good conversations and getting to know people over time.
Mainly just hoping to connect with like-minded people in Cork or around Ireland for chats, shared hobbies, coffee, or casual hangouts from time to time.
If this sounds relatable, feel free to reach out or leave a comment.

Would love to click with someone and do things, ive always wanted to climb carauntoohill. Trying to get back into working out, so an accountability buddy would be cool. Im getting to the age where i should probably golf or maybe paddel i think that's what the adults are doing now

F27 | Apparently making friends as an adult is a full-time job…

10 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m L|27 (turning 28 soon), from Germany, living close to Limerick.

I love going to concerts and am always looking for new music to obsess over. Last few years really started to like bands like Bad Omens, The plot in you, BMTH, Sleep Token and a few more. You usually find me reading, planning my next trip, or looking for somewhere new to explore. I’d love to meet people who are up for actually doing things too—whether that’s checking out a new city, going to a gig, taking a random day trip, or just getting out and trying something different. Making friends as an adult seems ridiculously difficult, so I’m hoping to find some genuine people to chat with and hopefully make some real connections.

I also like to mention that I’m in a relationship so really only looking to make friends. 😅

Feel free to send me a message if you think we’d get along 😊

29M- UK , what are your thoughts on a deshi bearded male ?

0 Upvotes

Hi, I'm living in Walsall, UK. Deshi guy who's interested to be friends and meet in real. i can be a open book to read if i think i should open the book. or you can just judge by the cover. i have so many interests but i have no friends or anyone known in this entire kingdom.

here trying to set up the life and contributing to the economy and society.

the most interesting thing for me in here is the daytime difference in summer and winter. well im kind of a summer person.. so i wear full sleeves or light jackets in night which makes me feel the difference in our DNA's and how beautiful variety our world has.

i know how most of the people see's us here fueled by the rightist of leftist., cant explain how it feels.

anyway, my stoic mentality is making me more and more antisocial, i mean making me more stuck in the phase where i just see and move to the next step silently. I don't know how to express how i feel. It really feels like im loosing my ability to talk and express anything happening in my head or heart..

maybe its just the end day of my life I'm waiting for. as "i came alone and i'll go alone".

How can you have an overwhelming love for little people, because they say something incredibly cute, or hilarious and in the same breath, immense hatred because they finished their cute/hilarious shtick; by sucker punching you where they come from

24M - Cork - Looking to make new friends to expand my duo :)

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I'm 24M, I am looking to meet some fun people to game and chat with and maybe get a little group going, fingers crossed.

Pretty much my hobbies and interests are very online to be honest lol, I like games, playing a lot of multiplayer and single player games, my duo and I are playing OW, Marvel rivals, fort, Roblox, and trying Marathon at the moment (Destiny, Skyrim and Lego batman are my beloved).

I talk a lot about games (obviously lol) shows, movies, anime (I listen to my friend about anime he is like a savant on anime haha hyper fixation rambles), and whatever brainrot tik toks we spam at each other too.

While I spend a lot of time online I do enjoy going outside on trips or adventures, like the cinema, concerts, museums, forest/nature walks, any excuse really to hang out with likeminded people.

I don't drink myself which has made it challenging to meet new people as going on nights out is a big way to meet new people, so totally would be down to meet people who are like me, just that bit different you know.

If your the age from 22 to 28 preference, boy, girl, non binary feel free to leave a comment or dm me (I think my dms are open this my first reddit post)

A little thing I suppose is I understand how nerve raking it can be to put yourself out there, or go up and say hi to someone, hopefully you feel a bit confident cause you can't out nerd me lol :)

34M looking for a platonic friendship in Wexford/Wicklow area

6 Upvotes

Full disclosure, I'm a bit of a bastard when it comes to texting. Between work and everything I dont have a huge amount of time to continuously text and in general the friends that I have, I enjoy it far more when we meet up for a coffee in person. Especially enjoy it when we go to the cinema to see a bad movie or head out for a walk or whatever.

Really into documentaries, psychological thrillers, hiking and then all the generic guy stuff like football, boxing, running, racket-sports etc. Not to sell myself short but I'm not the life of the party, I’m generally more of a calm introspective person if that matters at all to you. So it would really be great to meet someone I click with and could form a deep connection and friendship with.

If any of that interests you please feel free to send me a message. Thanks for reading!

Any actually active group chats or social groups around Bray, Wicklow, Dublin?

1 Upvotes

Hey all,

Im in my mid 30s. I’ve joined a few group chats before but they usually die off or nobody actually ends up meeting, so just wondering if there’s any genuinely active group chats or social groups around Bray/Wicklow/Dublin.

Bit stuck in the rut of work and house lately, and most of my mates are tied up with family stuff now, so just looking to meet a few sound people and get out a bit more or at least chat to people.

Cheers 🙂

23M Kildare just graduated college

2 Upvotes

Hi, I just turned 23 and finished my 4th year in college so I have moved back to Kildare and don’t have many friends close by to town. I’m looking to make friends that are in a similar situation like me or anyone who I can build a solid friendship with.

My hobbies for now consist of mainly playing games like Rocket League, COD, RS6, RDR2 and GTA5. I play PS5 mainly but have a PC too.

I’m pretty much an open book, I like to socialise and travel (I love driving!) so I’m always in and out of Dublin and wherever the wind takes me. Pretty big into fitness and gym. I love going out to play pool and bowling, and going to the cinema, I like pretty much all types of movies.

I did have a goal for 2026 and that was to go out more to bars and clubs so if anyone has the same goals that would be cool.

If anyone would like to get to know me more feel free to dm me ☺️

I know I’m not from Ireland but I have some heritage from there and I’m looking to connect with some people and learn something new.
I’m a fairly boring girl. I enjoy music and audiobooks. I work a lot. I have 3 dogs whom I love dearly as well.
I would love to meet some amazing people and make some new friends from a whole different place. I would also love to swap pictures so I can see a place I’ve never seen before.
Thanks so much for reading!

Hello 👋🏼

How are people making friends these days? I feel so old when everyone around me is talking about Snapchat and Botox!

I'm a 33 year old woman who has 2 preschool children. I'm finally coming out of the 'fighting for my life' stage of parenting and have some time to connect with others now.

I love alternative & boho fashion, tattoos, heavy rock music, crime documentaries and coffee.

Please message me if you think we could click ☺️
