Hey everyone, this feels a bit strange, but I’m hoping this post might help me meet some new people.

I’m a 36-year-old guy living in North Lakes, and I’ve been here for about 2.5 years. In that time, I haven’t really made any social connections outside of work. A little about me: I went to uni and earned a social work degree, and I’ve spent most of my career working in community organisations. I’m really into boxing and kickboxing, camping, and gaming. Honestly, I’m just looking for genuine human connection that isn’t centered around drinking or based on any kind of transactional agenda.

Cheers.

Hey all, 40ish dad looking to form a small friend group.

If the idea of discussing theories on the 2nd and 11th legion while stalking deer appeals to you, or debating which star wars movie is the best one while doing an overnighter up a mountain. (It's Rogue One by the way), or staying in an off grid cabin to paint minis and talk rubbish sounds like something you'd be keen to do, hit me up.

Hi everyone, I'm looking for a bar or venue for this Friday night. I would prefer rock, new wave, punk, or 80s/90s music. Are there any places you can recommend to me? I went to PFR Lounge 3 weeks ago and it was cool, but I’m looking for more options. If anyone would like to join, you’re welcome

About me: M(30), a bit introverted, I play bass and I’m a pretty chill person. Also open to jamming with other musicians from this group sometime.

As the title suggests, I’m looking for friends around my age with similar ideals and interests. For context, I’m neurodivergent (AuDHD) and have come to realise that I simply vibe better (or easier) with other ND ppl. I’m into all sorts of things from sports to philosophy, and wouldn’t mind finding more things my brain can’t get enough of. Dm (or comment and I’ll dm u), and let’s see where this shot lands.

Hey there urbanites!

I (26M) am looking for some cool artsy cats who would be interested in joining me in my usual QAGOMA outings.

I love having all sorts of conversations, so if you're a curious person who enjoys sharing feelings, discussing life and just bouncing ideas around then send me a dm.

And you don't need to be some pretentious know-it-all art buff, in fact, I'd rather you have opinions of your own, but if you're one to infodump what you're passionate about then it'd be a pleasure to receive it.

Heyy all!

I'm 29F, based in the inner south area (I'm about 1km from the river).

Massive gamer

I attend gym 5x a week

Love movie marathons, hikes, travelling, day trips etc

I work full-time and I'm also a full-time uni student (I'm very career driven).

Pickle and footy (NRL/AFL) enthusiast. 😝

Thoroughly enjoy going for coffee too!

Open to friends/connections of all kinds, whether that's gaming, walking, gym friends, spontaneous adventure friends etc!

Send me a DM / comment below! 🤍

Hi all !

24M here :)

For a long time I've struggled to rebuild a great group of friends after college/uni, and really want to regain a great group of people once again.

Recently it's felt like I'm in the matrix a bit and really want to build a great group of friends to help each other through the sometimes mundane day to day that we all know and sometimes dread.

Would love to organise some group events and or something casual to start with and see how we go from there :)

If this is something you'd be interested in and or if you would just like to have a chat, don't hesitate to send me a DM !

P.S if you're actually taking the time to read this and have got to this part of the post, you're a legend, and I'd love to connect.

Anyone interested in starting some social running?

I know there are heaps of run clubs out there that I could probably join, but my introverted self can’t bring herself to try an instagram built run club.

We had one start last year from reddit, but a couple of injuries and mismatched timing meant it didn’t work out.

Pretty flexible with times but I would be around the river / CBD area. Nothing fast, more social.

I’ve seen heaps of posts about people wanting to make new friends and do more, so could even extend this to walking too for those that don’t want to run but want accountability to get out and about.

I’m 31F, from the UK and pretty active 😊

Hi Friends,

Im keen to try martial arts for both health + social benefits. But I am a single mum, are there any studios inner city that would allow me to park my 6 year old to the side with some snacks and his iPad during class that anyone can recommend? Better yet if they have classes for kids? Open to trying different styles 🫰

Hii I’m 22F and located near Redcliffe. I’m looking to expand my social group but for some reason it’s so hard to try find friends around me :(

I struggle with mental health and would love more friends to help me get out and about.

I enjoy art, craft, gaming, and getting out in nature. I play Overwatch, phasmaphobia, repo, gta. I would prefer girl friends but I’m not against guys! As long as you respect that I have a partner. Feel free to DM me :)

Hi there, 39M in the east Brisbane area. I have been really getting into yoga, but would like to make it a bit more social. I’d like to find some people to meet up on a Sunday morning in a park for some yoga and a chat. Any age or gender, and any ability. I’m not awesome at yoga, but I’m getting better. Send me a dm if you’re interested.

Hey guys M32 here I have recently moved to Brisbane. I currently live in New Farm area and thought it would be cool to find some local pals for casual hangs; food, drinks, coffee, walks, markets, sports

Send me a message :)

Hey everybody im a 21 m in the southside logan area. I work in a trade and am now realising just how much its messing up my back and flexibility nd i dont want to be stiff as a stick when im older so just looking to see if there are any good yoga groups or anything like that around. Thank you very much

Hey, I will be in Brisbane CBD for work this Wednesday and Thursday night. I love the city but always end up here alone and get pretty bored.

Wish I had a group or someone in their 30s I could merge in with for a casual drink or just hang out. If you’re around and free one evening, or can recommend a good spot where people in the same age group hang out, that’d be awesome.

I’m early 30s, brown, chill and friendly.

Hit me up if you’re keen!

Cheers :)

Having a tough time,49M seperated, caring for four children rn. Trying to stay positive, but downtime and bedtime hit hardest. Feeling isolated and lonely. Any kind words out there?
