This subreddit is for FRIENDSHIP ONLY.

1.1k Upvotes

Honestly, the posts we see these days are getting so ridiculous. Why do you need someone to be taller than you when you're only looking to chat, call, study, or watch a movie? Why do you need your friends to be of a certain body type? Exchange pics to know if "we vibe". Wow?? Is that how you look for friends? Dapat attracted kayo sa isa't-isa?

Tapos pag na-remove at na-ban kayo, sasabihin na platonic lang naman talaga yung hanap niyo. Magtatago kayo sa reasoning na preference lang. Yeah, sure.

It's been 2 years since we transitioned this subreddit to a strictly platonic one. Why are we still facing the same issues as if the shift just happened yesterday?

As a reminder: Your post should be clear about your intention of finding friends. Any ambiguity may cause your post to get removed. Repeated offense will get you a temporary ban, then a permanent ban once you break the rules again after your ban gets lifted.

Examples of ambiguity include, but are not limited to:

  • has height and weight requirements
  • "should be easy on the eyes/attractive/cute/pretty/pogi"
  • "open to a relationship if it happens naturally, but would want to be friends first"
  • "exchange pics to see if we vibe"
  • "vibe and see where this goes"
  • "gusto ko ng lambing, cuddle"
  • fake BF/GF posts
  • has the same post in dating subreddits, other R4R subreddits with a dating flair

Each subreddit has a purpose. If what you're looking for doesn't align with the sub, then DON'T POST THERE. Hindi yung pag na-call out, idadahilan pa na "para lang mas malawak yung reach". Kung jowa hanap niyo, kung gusto niyong lumandi, sa DATING SUBREDDIT kayo magpost, hindi dito. It's that simple.

Please read the rules. Thank you.

Don't fall for this scam!

Apparently, this scammer is still active. Your girl (girl nga ba??) is working hard! Currently using the account Alternative_Week_940 (https://www.reddit.com/user/Alternative_Week_940/)

TG: puffypufzz

Still playing on people's emotions and making them feel bad enough to send them money.

"Allyson Lopez" is the name they're going by. Hindi ko na icecensor kasi fake din naman. (Previous names: Justine Manalo, Beatrice Lopez) Still using the same UNO Account number.

DOST scholar pa rin daw siya, pre-med student kuno.

They tried posting here but their account was flagged for ban evasion. But that won't stop them from messaging you–men in particular. Kasi they will offer to be a virtual gf, might send you thirst traps na stolen lang din. Anything to fool you out of your money.

TIGILAN NIYO NA KASI ANG PAG-BIGAY NG PERA JUSKO

THEY WON'T STOP HANGGA'T MAY NALOLOKO PA RIN SILA

Friends 29 [F4A] Anyone doing their self improvement or maybe fitness journey? Let's motivate one another

4 Upvotes

Okay so, later would be my last shift for this week and I just feel kinda isolated so I go here from time to time. I just want to break the cycle of work bahay work bahay on daily basis. I would love to meet people with their own hobbies to surround myself as well with people good on their field. Lately I'm more into fitness journey since I need to gain more weight and I would also want to have muscles. Just the normal one not the "body building type" 😅

I'm from Bacoor, Cavite. 5'1 in height. Slim. I'm into artsy stuff too. Sometimes I prefer to walk to enjoy the nature.

Feel free to send dm and introduce yourself by saying what do you love to do. I may not be able to reply right away since I'm busy and I might be asleep but I will definitely reply as soon as possible ☺️

It feels like the weekend flew by in seconds. I’m not sure if I’m ready to conquer the week but I’ll do my best haha.

I’m looking for someone that I can make kwento with while I navigate my life. I’ve recently been trying to build better habits and strive to achieve my goals in a timely manner (adhd is really kicking my ass). Maybe you want company while you work on yourself too?

About me

- introvert
- Loves cooking, swimming, and trying out food spots
Studying for law school exams
- Gradwaitingggg
- Current fave song is Silly Boy by The Blue Van
- Loves indie, horror, and thriller movies

Send an intro if you’re interested!

Friends 38 [M4F] maybe we're all living off seeds we forgot we planted

33 Upvotes

when we're younger (pardon me, damay-damay na to :)), parang lagi tayong may hinahabol. the next payday. next promotion. next chapter. all the while, we're planting seeds. working overtime. learning new skills. making hard choices. showing up when nobody's clapping.

then one day, it hits you.

the stable career.
the friends who stayed.
the confidence that came quietly.

lahat yan? old seeds.

we spend so much time wondering if we're growing that we forget we're already harvesting.

don't get me wrong, buhay pa rin tayo sa panahon na 'to. we're all one surprise statement away from saying, "ayoko na." 😅

about me:

  • 38, filo, based down under
  • professionally established, emotionally available
  • enjoys good conversations, dark humour, and strong coffee
  • still planting, but finally appreciating the harvest

so, my qeustion to you is: what's something in your life today that came from a seed you planted years ago? 🌱

8 Upvotes

I'm looking to make friends once a again, someone who I can hang out with. (play/eat/drink/travel) with. I'm from Cubao.

I’m open to going anywhere you’d like to hang out or just call about anything. I’m here to listen whether you want to share your thoughts, talk about your problems, have some fun, or just goof around and chat about hobbies or anything else.

About me:

• I'm 5'9, Chinito, lean, jogger, wears glasses, may sense of fashion, mabango, and working

• I watch a variety of shows, from sitcoms to anime and documentaries (recently just watched demon slayer and they shall not grow old)

• People say I'm a good conversationalist, I can talk about alot of things

• I love hanging out or just vibing at coffee places, either I'm working or just relaxing

• Kaladkarin: I'm ambiverted so that's the best of both worlds I guess

• Working (classified), I chat when I can but I make the time to have a conversation.

• I like long walks and parks

Calls > texts

About you:

• From Manila

Basic hi's and hello's won't be entertained, at least try to give a decent intro, I hope we can be constant friends.

Gasgas na siguro to pero still, I'm genuinely wholeheartedly looking for people to talk to. I mean meron naman na ako existing friends pero I gues gusto ko ng other perspective sa mga pananaw sa buhay? maybe? Anyway, right now I'm stuck talking to my cat and well, he's not exactly responsive. Soooo, maybe we can just talk about stuff? Discuss or maybe play coop games? (STS2 is lyf).

About me:

-madaldal pag comfy na ikaw nalang susuko

-dark edgy humor (forgive me)

-currently may ubo and sipon so baka marinig mo akong umuubo from time to time

-BIG fan (call me larper cuz I haven't played the games yet) of Resident Evil. and no hindi si Leon Kennedy fave ko although I still love his character

-Into STS2 (72hrs play time)

-generous pag may steam sale pero let me watch you play haha

-love love love coop games

-kaladkarin as long as hindi lalagpas sa 300 pesos yung magiging pamasahe ko haha

About you:

-horror fan since mahilig ako magwatch party ng horror

-hopefully a fan of the RE franchise so we can nerd about it

-hindi clingy and has a life outside the internet

-workinggggg and living independently (non nego suri)

-hindi balat sibuyas

-doesn't mind if merong ibang kasama especially when gaming or watching movies (if maging close tayo char haha)

Ayun lang! Highnuinely looking for friendships that last. Sana meron pa dito since di ko na alam pano makipagkaibigan in real life hshshshhs. If you've read this far, what's your fave RE franchise OR what do you do when you're bored (panakaw ng idea thanks haha)? Ciao!

Friends 23 [F4A] Looking for a good conversation that might turn into a friendship for life

9 Upvotes

Have you ever met someone online and thought, “I hope this is one of those people who sticks around”? That’s kind of what I’m looking for.

I’m not necessarily looking for someone to talk to every single day or someone who has to be available 24/7. I just want to meet someone I genuinely click with, someone I can have good conversations with, get to know little by little, and hopefully become friends with for a long long time.

A little about me:

  • I’m 23, from Manila
  • I’m a little shy and reserved at first, but once I get comfortable with someone, I can be pretty talkative
  • I enjoy music, movies, and reading (trying to get back into it!)
  • I love conversations that start with something random and somehow end up getting surprisingly deep
  • I appreciate people who can be silly one minute and have a genuine, meaningful conversation the next. I love a good sense of humor, but I also appreciate people who aren’t afraid to be real
  • I enjoy the little things that come with getting to know someone, like sharing songs, recommending movies, talking about how our day went, or sending random thoughts and kung ano-ano pa
  • I’d love to have the kind of friendship where we can talk about anything and everything, have random calls while doing our own thing, send each other the most unhinged memes, and pick up where we left off even after a busy day

What I’m hoping to find:

  • Someone around 24-29 who genuinely enjoys getting to know people and is open to building a long-term friendship
  • Someone who understands that life gets busy and that a delayed reply doesn’t necessarily mean someone has lost interest. We all have our own responsibilities, routines, and days when we don’t feel like talking much
  • Someone who doesn’t necessarily share all my interests. In fact, I’d love to hear you talk about something you’re passionate about, even if I know absolutely nothing about it
  • Bonus points if you enjoy music, movies, games, random deep talks, or late-night conversations that somehow make you lose track of time
  • May discord
  • Preferably from Manila or somewhere nearby

I think one of the nicest things about meeting someone new is that you never really know what they’ll eventually mean to you.

Someone who starts as a stranger could become the person you tell your little victories to, the one you share your random thoughts with, or someone who’s still around years from now.

Maybe we’ll get along. Maybe we’ll have different interests but still find plenty to talk about. Maybe we’ll become the kind of friends who can go from talking every day to catching up after a while without losing the connection.

Or maybe, just maybe, we’ll end up being friends for life. Who knows?

If this sounds like something you’d want, feel free to message me! Tell me a little about yourself, what you’ve been into lately, or something you’re always happy to talk about.

I’m here for a good conversation, but I’d be even happier if it turned into a friendship neither of us expected, but both of us wanted to keep.

Friends 22 [F4A] Let's be IG moots and real life friends!

17 Upvotes

Heyooo. Life after graduation is draining so I want to expand my social circle, yung for a lifetime naman sana🥺

I just graduated nursing here in Manila, reviewing for the board exam na next year pa naman. Right now, I am working as an on call ambulance/event/sports medic. Every Monday to Friday and Sunday ang pasok ko sa review center so ang free day ko lang is Saturday, which I allot for hiking or freediving. I'm very active sa youth orgs but nag lie low since nagfofocus ngayon sa review and hiking. But since junior adviser ako ng Isang youth org sa alma mater ko, pumupunta pa rin ako sa school minsan if needed.

I’m a biological girl but laging napagkakamalan na trans so if ever makita niyo pics ko here, unahan ko na po kayo bago kayo magtanong. No, I’m not trans and yes, I’m a real girl. No offense to trans, just clarifying lang po kasi ang Daming nagtatanong lagi and I’m fed up sa topic na yan.

I have an upcoming hike this Oct 24 sa Mt. Batulao, baka you want to join? It’s good for beginners naman! And if you’re new into hiking, I’m willing to help you naman to get into, give tips, etc.

So ayun, yung other details is sa chat na lang? See ya!
