2 Upvotes

A lil about me:

23M Brown guy, 6'0 with a slightly chubby build (allegedly bulking rn XD) who's an ambivert. Quite awks and shy at first but I'm very vocal and fun to have around after that initial ice-breaker haha. I'm a Sri Lankan who was brought up in the Middle East for much of my life before moving to Melbourne earlier this decade:) I love jamming to music (pop and hip hop!), big texter and am quite emotionally aware.

I'm looking for,

Women around my age interested in going on coffee runs, exploring food, the outdoors and genuine companionship. I don't mind a casual dating situation or one-offs, I'm frankly happy just to show up for chill chats and spend time together knowing each other rather than something forced.

What I offer,

Calm and chill vibes, a very good listener (Im more comf listening than talking myself) and dont really mind if you start ranting about your life. I'll actually remember the details next time you bring it up too. Decent music taste, always down to try a new food spot or just wing it with plans, and I keep things low drama - no games, no weird texting twists (i am acc a big texter lol!), just easy company.

Hobbies Partner 35[M4A] looking for fellow concert goers, yappers, and people curious to explore the city

0 Upvotes

Hello there! I arrived about a month ago in Melbs, and I'm slowly finding my way in this big pond. I'm looking for friends to hang out with. There a few concerts I would like to go to (Foo Fighters, Hans Zimmer) and it would be fantastic if I could do that with a friend! I'm a little stuck in the 90's and 00's regarding my music taste (true millennial), but always eager to hear some live music in a bar. 

I have done a few comedy shows as well. Some were very very good, a few other comedians were...well, let's say I hope they have another job still. 

I'm quite a yapper, but more importantly, I'm curious at people in the same boat as me. How, why did you decide to move over to here and build up a new life? If you're born and bred Victorian, I'm sure you have a couple of interesting things to tell as well! 

I'm currently training for the Melbourne marathon and keen on doing something active with friends as well. Into hiking, cycling, and running obviously. Can easily be persuaded for something out of the ordinary as well, sports or non sports!

I don't like coffee (weirdly enough I have still been allowed to keep my visa) and live in the Balaclava area. So it would be great I feel would live relatively close! 

For the rest, I'm a bit of a history and Geo geek. I like (re)watching series like Suits, Breaking Bad and the lighter comedy genre, but I'm actually too new in this city to be sitting home alone watching TV. 

So hit me up if any of this is your cup of tea (I don't drink coffee, yet again)

Moved to Melbourne 6-7 years ago and slowly lost contact with most of my friends for one reason or another.

Seeking Relationship 28 [F4M] looking for my person 🫶🏻

20 Upvotes

Hi all
I’m a full time preschool teacher and part time masters student, so opportunities to meet guys are slim. I’ve posted on here before and gone on some dates but nothing really stuck… here’s hoping this time is different 🤞🏻

About me:
I’m 28, grew up in country Vic and moved to Melbourne 8 years ago. I bought my apartment near the CBD last year and live with my best friend (who is about to move abroad, so new housemate incoming), and my cat, Juni. I love going out to eat, trying new bars and restaurants. I enjoy going to the cinema, karaoke, and reading. In the summer I love being by the water, be it pool or beach. A year-round favourite hobby is a cheeky game of pool or 10… 🎱
I don’t smoke, do drugs or drink often. In terms of values, I’m quite politically engaged and very progressive.
Aesthetically I’m 5’4, Caucasian, long brown hair, mid size/curvy. I’m happy to exchange SFW pics in DMs

About you (hopefully):
Overall a kind human. Pro-cat, pro-choice, pro-LGBTQIA+, anti-racist, anti-genocide. Not a smoker or regular drug user (also type… a bit of pot = fine. a bit of meth… perhaps not…). FUNNY. Make me laugh with and at you, please. I’d love someone I can have cosy nights in, watching movies and playing cards/games with. I’m willing to learn your favourite nerdy video game or barrack for your (insert sport here) team. But also someone who will go out and socialise with me, come to the local pub and play pool, come to my friend’s birthdays, help me host dinner parties when I inevitably get stressed. Also someone with a high 6️⃣ drive. Aesthetically, I don’t have too much of a type, but I do like a handsome face. And age range would be 25- 38. Please don’t message if you’re older than that. And I’m looking for monogamy.

If you got this far then it means you are literate, which is a great start. If you decide to DM me, I’d love to know what you or your friends would describe as your top 5 personality traits.

Thanks ☺️

Seeking Relationship 33 [M4F] - Shy nerd looking for his person

0 Upvotes

Hey! I'm 33 and live in Melbourne's western suburbs. I work full-time, live by myself, and have a car, so distance around Melbourne isn't a big deal.

I'm a pretty quiet, introverted person at first, but I open up once I'm comfortable. I'm more of a homebody, but I also enjoy getting out for EDM festivals, the occasional night out, or just doing something different.

Physically, I'm on the smaller/slimmer side, with dark hair and brown eyes. I'm currently getting back into the gym after some time away, so I'm working on getting myself into better shape too.

A few things I'm into:

Gaming & anime — I'm a bit of a nerd/weeb and would love to get back into anime more

EDM, K-pop, and Japanese music — especially vocaloid and anime music

Getting back into the gym (a gym buddy would be nice, but definitely not required)

Cuddling, affection, and cozy nights in

I'm looking for someone kind and affectionate who I'd really enjoy spending time with and seeing where things go. It would be nice to have some things in common, but I'm also happy to discover new things together.

If I sound like your kind of person, send me a message and tell me about yourself :)

NSFW Casual Encounters 26 [M4F] In a newly ENM dynamic and looking for people that have a lack of attention in their everyday life and a desire for it to increase (details in post!)

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

Me and my partner have just recently become ENM (her idea) due to her lack of motivation for going on dates or anything of a sexual nature (due to her busy work schedule as well as personal reasons). I’ve had one good experience so far but since then I’ve really been struggling on the apps to find someone interested in our specific scenario.

A little about me: I’m 26 male, Italian/Australian with a decent slim build (that’s improving (muscle wise) due to gym 4 days a week). I am into all things video games and pop culture (so your typical movies and tv shows that goes along with all that), I love my sports (AFL and Formula one my two standouts but I have a team in basically all AU and US sports) and just in general love spending the plethora of free time I have either with my friends getting dinner/lunch/coffee or going out drinking, or having nights in with the cats and watching movies (hopefully with a new cuddle buddy in one of you soon haha).

I Just thought I’d make this post to see if their are any women that would love a higher level of attention, messages, sexting, dates or basically any form of attention they would want. I am full time work from home and my job isn’t really that busy so I have so much free time I could devote directly to you.

I'm basically looking for someone that is okay that I have a primary partner and very willing to receive more attention. I am also super flexible regarding what this 'attention' can look like, so whether that's daily chats and fun (both in person and online) or once a week/fortnight. Whatever 'attention' means to you in regards to what you're lacking and would love in your life I'm fairly certain I can fill that role.

Not being interested in in-person meetups is not a deal breaker either! But ideally i'd like to have a minimum of an online dynamic that also has a sexual component (due to my high sex drive). But happy to define this a little more once we connect!

If any of this sounds interesting to you please feel free to send me a DM! we can just chat to start with some pic exchanges to see if we’re interested in one another and I can give you more specific info on the dynamic and we can take it from there?

Hope to hear from some of you!

Seeking Friends 28[M4F] feeling really isolated lately so friendship is desired!

1 Upvotes

Hi, I’m really struggling to find some ongoing friendships. I’ve recently found that I either don’t have friends who’d like to see me or I’m not worth people making time. It also seems like people don’t want to be friends with anyone but people they were friends with in school.

I’m looking for friendships with people who put equal effort in and that I don’t feel like a burden wanting to be friends. I’m a bit nerdy, love One Piece, Star Wars, and playing Overwatch and some other single player games.
I enjoy going to the gym and getting some exercise! I’ve also recently joined a Volleyball team so I can meet some new people.

Me: 75kg 168cm red haired broad build 😊

What I offer: I’m someone who is constantly trying to work on myself and I value those around me, I’m light hearted, funny, inclusive, and will always put effort into those I care about.

Would love to hear from anyone interested 😊

Seeking Friends 42M(M4F)- Looking to connect chat/ talk for friendship and advice

0 Upvotes

About me : 42M, 5'8", married dad of 2 with a dad bod, heterosexual, reserved, and somewhat introverted. I’m in a happy marriage, but unfortunately, our sex life is largely absent. I’m hoping to connect with women in a similar situation—those whose marriages are strong but who are experiencing a lack of intimacy.

I’m primarily looking for someone to talk with, share experiences, exchange perspectives, enjoy some humor, and get to know one another. If we connect, I’d be glad to develop a genuine friendship. Please send me a DM if you’re interested.

It would also be valuable to support one another, share ideas and suggestions, and perhaps help each other explore ways to improve our intimate lives within our marriages. There’s no pressure—just an opportunity for honest conversation with someone who understands the situation.

Seeking Friends 22[F4A]- Looking to meet new people and make connections

7 Upvotes

Hello everyone! Thought I would hop on the bandwagon and make a post here. I have been in Melbourne for a few years now but my social life and circle has remained relatively small. I am looking to change this and meet new people from different walks of life preferably similar in age and form meaningful friendships and connections.

About me:

  • 22F, queer, brown

. Live in the south east but can PTV

  • Working in healthcare- rotating roster but completely free on my days off
  • Open minded individual who is introverted/awkward at times but definitely down to chat and have conversations about anything
  • Down to do almost anything whether it be just hanging out and vibing/chilling, having conversations or doing actual activities and fun things or even running errands
  • A good listener, empathetic and quite a chill person to be around

Things I like: At the moment I am in that weird stage of life where I am figuring out what I like and enjoy doing. I am trying to get back into reading regularly, I enjoy watching movies and have watched a bunch of TV shows in the past. I am also into hiking (I can do moderately challenging) and nature related things and exploring new places and suburbs. I particularly enjoy art galleries and museums and even though I have lived in melb for a while I am super keen to explore all that this city offers. I love trying new food and cafes and I am also attempting to get better at cooking and trying new dishes. I am really just trying to get out of my shell and fill up my days off with enriching activities and people. I am not a super sporty person but I would be down to try things at a beginner level. I love tattoos, I have two and I am looking at getting more in the future. I am not super into nightlife but having travelled abroad a little bit this year I have realised that I have not experienced everything Melbourne has to offer so I am down to experience this as well.

What am I looking for?

I am mainly looking for friends, opportunities to interact with people and hang out and see where things go. I would like to form meaningful friendships and connections. I am open to meeting anyone male or female with no restrictions but preferably of similar age. I am looking for kind, respectful and genuine humans to meet up and explore the city with. I promise I do not bite and I am a very flexible and easygoing person.

If you are interested in any of the above things or want to know more send me a message and let's chat/hang out! :)

Seeking Friends 24NB Looking for Someone to Annoy

1 Upvotes

Hi Reddit!

I'm 24 this year and non-binary (AMAB if that matters; he/they). Life's been pretty quiet lately, and between work and uni it's honestly been hard to make friends.

Conversations with me usually go something stupid -> something deep -> back to stupid.

I definitely prefer 1-on-1 connections. Group settings have never really worked for me, even though I'm an extrovert so that's pretty weird right?

Looking for someone I can talk to at any hour about anything and everything. Hopefully local too, so if we vibe well over text/call then hopefully we can hang out IRL! Expect the usual "how's your day going?" or "good morning" messages, but I'll definitely try to get to know you on a deeper level too, so be prepared! I'm happy to text throughout the day when I get downtime, and hopefully hop on voice calls every once in a while.

A bit about me:

• Born in Malaysia, living in Melbourne for 10+ years now. Currently in my final year of a Bachelor of Business, majoring in HR.

• Really passionate about social issues and philosophy (I'm somewhat of a pseudo intellectual :P). I'd say I'm pretty laid back and not overly serious, but I'll get fired up when certain topics come up.

• Used to be a pretty big gamer, but it's hard to find the time lately. Would love to start gaming more so hopefully we could play something together!

• Really into cars but absolutely no money to actually enjoy the hobby right now.

• Also got really into open source software recently. It's my latest hyperfixation, but I'm lowkey just a LARPer tbh.

• Pretty good cook too! So expect some pictures of my cooking (and don't laugh when they're lazy meals lol).

Other than that, just message me and find out :) Thanks for reading, hope to see you in my DMs soon!

NSFW Casual Encounters 34 (M4F/TW/A). Wanting Friends, FwB's or more.

0 Upvotes

Hi all.

About me:

I'm 34, live in the South East part of Melbourne. I'm a gamer, lover of a good story in games, movies and TV shows. I ride a motorcycle an MT07 and I love it. I'm also a Male non-conformist Goth/Alternative human. I don't believe in labeling myself with any "Gender or Sexualities" but I'll use some to help people understand me.

So this post, I'm looking to make (18+ only) Friends, Friends with Benefits ideally or potentially something more with the right person or persons. So everyone is welcome to shoot their shot and message. I'm very friendly, but I'll be respectful if I'm not interested.

---I'll start with the more friends part first.---

I'd like to be able to go for rides or play some games with some new people. So you're also welcome to message me. Or even hang out cuddle and watch some stuff for the more benifits people.

I'm currently playing Crimson Desert. But I play a wide variety of games, but I do love a good story game. But mindless ones are great too.

I play on PC, I have a PS5 that I haven't taken out of the box yet 😅🤣 but I can if I need too. I have tonnes of free time for people who work or don't.

If you message me let me know what you're looking for and we can go from there 😁 as long as we are clear on where we stand with each other there is no drama. I am a drama free person. Super chill and am clear about what I want and my intention and can take and handle rejection.

I am also AuDHD. So I can be quite blunt with what I say, but there is no subtext with me. No guessing. If you ask a question you'll get a straight and truthful answer.

\---This stuff may not necessarily apply to people who are just looking for friends---

Sexually I am a Pleasure Dom and a damn good one. My desire to give pleasure can be seen as quite obsessive 😅 but can you blame me it feels good to please. I'm well endowed (pics on my profile) and I am good with it. I'm a really open minded person. And am definitely free use and always up for it. I'm also Drug and Disease free, you should be too. Weed is fine though.

I currently have a tonne of free time and can host or travel.

What I'm attracted too: (won't apply to friends)

I am attracted to Woman, whether that's biological or not. When I say I'm attracted to Woman I mean that in terms of facial features and what is considered "traditionally biologically feminine". So Woman, Trans Woman, even some Femboys. This doesn't make me a chaser. I know what I'm attracted to. I'm not treating anyone as a fetish. Just explaining what I'm attracted to and will pursue.

Body type: (again, doesn't apply to friends)

Age isn't an issue with me as this is an 18+ only place so be over 18.

Average body shape and below is what I'm attracted to. Basically a thinner waist to hips and bust.

I am definitely more a face type of guy over body though. Especially eyes and lips.

What I'm looking for with FwB's and more:

I'd like someone who has a high sex drive that is compatible with mine which is very high. Someone who is very touch oriented too, I like to be with people who can't keep their hands to them self and love cuddling and intimacy.

Someone who likes intimacy, passion and genuine connections. Doesn't have to be romantic. But am open to it.

For Relationships, I am open to it and we can have a discussion about it in the future. But I'm not someone who likes to put that sort of pressure on people or difine where something should lead too. If something develops then it does, if it doesn't there is no stress. I am open to monogamous and non-monogamous. Even throuples or moresomes are great.

When messaging me, please send pictures of your face and body. I'll send my face to only after I receive yours. And be clear about what it is you're looking for from me so we can be on the same page.

Thank you for taking the time to read this if you did. I appreciate it.

Seeking Friends Hi 34 [M4A] looking for friends nearby Laverton to hangout

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m a 34-year-old guy who has recently moved to Laverton and I’m hoping to meet some friendly people in the area. Being new to the suburb, I’d love to make a few genuine connections with locals or people from nearby areas such as Altona, Williams Landing, Point Cook, Hoppers Crossing, Footscray, or anywhere around the western suburbs.

I’m keen for relaxed catch-ups—whether that means grabbing a coffee, going for a walk, checking out a pub, watching sport, visiting the beach, exploring Melbourne, or simply having a casual chat and a laugh. I’m easy-going, respectful, and happy to meet people from different backgrounds who are also looking to expand their social circle.

Moving somewhere new can feel a little isolating at first, so I thought I’d put myself out there and see if anyone else is in a similar position. Whether you are new to the area too, have lived here for years, or just want someone to hang out with occasionally, feel free to send me a direct message.

No pressure and nothing complicated—just hoping to meet some good people, make friends, and enjoy what the local area has to offer. Cheers!
