kellypdx Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 Hi, I enjoy meeting new people online but when I look for ways to talk to people it is all about dating. I have a bf and am just looking to make friends. When I was young we used to have pen pals and I enjoyed talking to people from different places. Does anyone know of any chat or message boards where you can make an actual friend or two? Link to post Share on other sites

d0nnivain Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 Like life, groups having similar interests may yield friends. Over the weekend I attended a convention where I got to meet a few people I had been chatting on line with since 2020. Over the years I made a few online friends through a fan fiction site; I met some others through "what's happening in [location]" groups on social media. Link to post Share on other sites
Alpacalia Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 There are platforms specifically designed for finding platonic connections. However, I must warn you that when my heterosexual female cousin joined, she encountered mostly homosexual women and men pretending to be females. There are online communities related to specific interests or hobbies. Try FB groups or CityData forum threads. Link to post Share on other sites
