      Hi,

      I’m in the process of applying for a few programs to go back to school in Ireland. I have a few friends there, but would like to make more! I just got back from a trip around the island in November and am headed out there in January again.

      I’d love to make some connections, especially in anticipation of living there for next Autumn’s semester!

      Happy to chat about most things, love new people! Don’t be shy.

      Thanks!

      Katie

      Hi there

      Is this site still active? No one seems to message back 🙁 If it is and if anyone sees this, have any of you arranged to meet up or anything? It would be nice to meet new people around the midlands but I do drive too.

      Had a baby at 40 and finding it rewarding of course but hard…. as the things I used to be able to do like going for walks alone with my dog or going to a gig are not things I’m able to do anymore. I’ve decided to try and inject more balance in my life by prioritising more ‘me time’ as I feel. need it to be an even better mom! But being removed from society for so long has started to take a toll on me and I know I need more contact with adults! And more mental stimulation. I wonder if any other moms feel the same?

          Hi there!
          I’m Sonia, a Spanish student excited to move to Dublin at the end of February for an internship.
          Having grown up in a small village, I’m eager to embrace new experiences and explore the vibrant culture of the city. I’m particularly interested in trying out activities like watching musicals, playing tabletop role-playing games (like Dungeons & Dragons), and other fun experiences that I’ve missed out on due to my personal circumstances. In my free time, I love reading, binge-watching series and movies, and diving into genres like fantasy, science fiction, and horror. I can be a bit shy at first, but I’m looking to connect with friendly, open-minded people, especially in the LGBTQ+ community.
          If you’re up for some adventures or just want to chat about our favorite shows and books, feel free to reach out! Looking forward to making new friends in Dublin!

                    Hello, BFFs! I am counting the days until we can fix up our house in California and sell it, then move to Ennis. The current plan is April 2025. Tick tock tick tock.

                    I grew up in South Africa, lived in Dublin for a few years in the 1980s, and have spent the last several years in California. Now our kids are grown and it’s time for Pat and me to go exploring on our own, and what better spot than Co. Clare, amirite?

                    There are a lot of people reaching out here on BFF. I’m curious how well that’s working. I’m fairly introverted so it’s always been hard for me to “just make friends”, and I find it super awkward to reach out to a stranger and say “hey I’ll be your friend” because you never know what you’re getting into. 😬 When we were young, our school classmates provided a good pool of potential friends. At work, we’re exposed to people who might turn into friends. (Unless you worked where I used to work 🙄) And when you’re in a new place and don’t know anyone, it’s really, really hard.

                    But research shows that one way to start friendships is to keep showing up.

                    One of the first things I’m going to do when we hit the ground in Ireland is sign up to volunteer… somewhere. I’ve found a few volunteer orgs but I’d love to get some suggestions. Who knows, I might even be able to connect with one of them <i>before</i> we get to Ireland.

                    What volunteer orgs do YOU recommend?

                      Hi everyone, My name is Wisam. Originally I am from Syria, but spent a decade in Qatar and Dubai working before moving to Ireland 4 years ago. I am in my early 30s and it seems a bit hard to make friends these days, so I was like why not trying it here?!

                      I believe every good friendship starts with a simple “hello”, so here’s mine! 👋
                      Feel free to ping me for a walk, a drink, or even just a chat.

                      Looking forward to make new friends ^_^

                        I too would love to meet new friends. It seems to get harder and harder as I get older & there are less places to meet where you can make a real connection

                            Hey everyone,

                            What's the craic?

                            I am Agni and I moved to Ireland almost 2 years ago. I enjoy travelling, hiking, meeting new people and getting to know more about new cultures. I haven't had the opportunity to explore enough of Ireland due to living a busy life in a remote part of this country.
                            If anyone feels like having a chat or meetup over tea, coffee or a drink, drop a message.
                            Hope to meet some interesting people to share more with.

                              Don't know how to go about these things as meeting people directly and talking works less in the small country that I've lived in. Been almost 2 years since I've relocated to this country but I do enjoy meeting new people and getting to know them while sharing hobbies.

                              Feel free to drop a line and we can talk more.

                                I’m 31 years old, married, mom of a 2 year old boy, recently moved to Athlone. Since I'm new in town, I'm looking for new friends here (not necessarily moms) for hanging out, coffee, walks, outings, nights out etc.
                                I hope to meet friends here but the profiles on this site don't have much information about themselves and I'm not sure if I should contact them.

Here in Spain se Celebra la Tradición de la Semana Santa con sus Procesiones, me gustaria saber de alguna de vuestras tradiciones de vuestro Bello País Irlanda. Here en España la Gente es muy Religiosa yo no soy Religioso, la Gente acude a Ver desfilar a las procesiones y van a Misa. Bueno esto es un poco de lo que se Celebra en mi Pais. Thanks. Aquí va un aportillo de un Programa en el lenguaje Python para quien lo pueda Aprovechar.

                                    Hello,
                                    first introduction on BFF for 2023!!
                                    I'm Nicolas, from south France, by the Mediterranean Sea. I'm 43, have 3 children, 2 dogs and a cat 🙂
                                    I'm a musician, a chemist working in Ecology and felt in love with Ireland and the Irish People a long time ago. I'm lucky enough to have friends living in Galway and visit them quite often.
                                    I practice yoga, hiking, camping, cooking, playing guitar, bass guitar, trumpet, flutes…
                                    I'm an highly sensitive person with a strong need for creation (writing, music, drawing…) and connections.
                                    Even if I live far from Ireland, I'll be happy to meet people here, chat and maybe one day, meet you in person!
                                    Have a beautiful day 🙂

                                      Long story short:
                                      Male, dad to 1, mullingar, 40’s, looking to make friends.

                                      Long story long, I’ve moved around a bit and struggled to keep long term friends, primarily because I expect ultimate loyalty from friends. Partly because I’m quiet, always have been, always will be.
                                      I do ove a good night out though. Love music, people always assume it’s rock I will like, but it’s everything from rock to trance and heavy house music. Love reading. Oscar Wilde. Edgar Allen Poe. Fiction. Micheal connelly. Graham masterton. Ken Bruen. Lee Child. Self improvement or business books.
                                      Love nerdy stuff, not superheroes or marvel, but gadgets, Space, sci-if. Love wine and coffee. I’m socially awkward, but hide it well and get there in the end.

                                      I’d be interested in meeting up with anyone interested in adding friends to their lives. HMU

                                        I love, nature in general, and by extension all animals.
                                        I have dogs, but have also had a cat, and terrapins, and over lockdown, even found a false widow in my bathroom and looked after her for a while (until she gave birth to about 50 baby spiders, and I thought it best to move them all outside). I called her Shelob.

                                        Is there anyone on this site actually genuinely interested in connecting and making new friends? All I see are profiles which have very little or no information and some can't even be bothered to have a photo, just join with no other info.

                                        I am mid 40s single female, no kids and no interest in having kids. I left Ireland after college and returned a few years ago. I am finding Irish people very reluctant and adverse to making friends and allowing a new person into their social groups. I don't have the same life experiences as other 40 something Irish people and if you are single with no kids, it seems that you are very much the outsider and people just cant relate as Irish society revolves around family.

                                        My interests are

                                        I just want to have real life people to talk to , to maybe meet up for coffee or shopping. I'm not looking for a romantic relationship, just to have someone that would ring me and say what are you doing Saturday, lets go try the new summer menu at Starbucks and have a chat.

                                          Hi, I am into crime documentaries and I enjoyed watching: Night Stalker: The Hunt For a Serial Killer; The Confession Killer; Crime Scene: The Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel; Paradise Lost: The Child Murders at Robin Hood Hills’ @louanne Don’t f*ck with cats was also good.
                                          @burkie I have seen Dexter: New Blood, but I was not happy how it ended… It only reminded me about the season finale of the GOT and my frustration ;( I love original Dexter though.

                                            Hi anyone reading this 🙂

                                            My name is Jennifer and i am 33 and living in Derry. I am on here in the hopes to make some friends online and possibly offline. I am a carer for my parents so chances to get out and about can be limited.

                                            Just looking for people to chat with who have similar interests or goals.

                                            Some of my interests include reading [non-fiction], zoology [sadly i am without a pet right now lol] and history. Although i am not out as much as i used to or want to be i really love spending time outdoors, especially around the water – sea, lake, river, i like them all lol.

                                            In terms of media interests i enjoy all sorts of music from pop, rock to trance and some classical. I enjoy watching comedy panel shows and documentaries and also tv series like The Office[US], Six Feet Under, Game of Thrones etc, also some older comedies – Faulty Towers, Gimme Gimme Gimme etc. Also some podcasts revolving around debunking pseudoscience.

                                              Hi all, Im living in Longfod for the past 16 years. Im working from home at the moment so, now that the christmas house cleaning for visitors is over, I thought i would reach out for some people to chat with. My interests are a bit nerdy: some tech, sci-fi, fantasy etc (but not superheroes , generally )I also follow the wide range of current and upcoming Irish bands, and like camping at some music festivals throughout the year. Hopefully I can get back to them this yeaar, after a 2 year absence.

                                                  Hey everybody,

                                                  New to this app, but not new to Dublin. As restrictions seem to be lifting and normality is coming back gradually, was just wondering would anybody be up for planning a night out or drinks?

                                                    Hi Kelly,

                                                    I’m Nuraini. I just joined this Bffinder thing today, after moping around the house for a few years. I’m 43-ish :). I’ve been here since 1999, from Malaysia. I came here as a University Student, fell in love with a classmate, married, stayed, had babies, worked, quit work, and now am looking for new things to do. A new chapter of life shall we say.

                                                    Your note resonates with me, in terms of the trying to make a beautiful home (I’m not too good at it though, it always seems to stay a mess, with 6 people to clean up after, maybe it’s not my fault), growing vegetables, crafting and animals. We have two pet rabbits and a few fish and a turtle. I have tried being self-sufficient but don’t think I’d be able to survive off my produces alone… at all. I like walking too, hiking not so much but will do it for health reasons. I love yoga, even tho it tortures me afterwards, esp the planking/core muscle poses. I’m also more of a home bird. Even my work friends have commented on this. I’d only go out shopping if I have to. I’d make myself attend work dinners and all that but it is something that takes alot of effort from me. I know it’s something I have to work on, like building a stamina/tolerence for it. It’s a relief now that I don’t have to deal with people that much, but at the same time, loneliness does creep up.

                                                    Unfortunately, I’m in Limerick, so meeting up would be unlikely. This might be both a relief and a downer :).

                                                    I don’t know if I’d make a good friend, but I can try.

                                                    I’m sorry about your heart being broken. From what you said, was it recent? That’s simply horrible. But I’m not going to make this about him, so what can I do for you? What would you like to talk about?

                                                    I used to enjoy cooking but have lost the spirit for it recently. What kind of crafts do you do? I’m trying to learn watercolour at the moment, but since it’s only my first year at it, I have nothing good to show for it yet. I used to be into cardmaking and have drawers of stuff 😛 If you’re interested in any of those kind of stuff, maybe I could post some of my excess to you. I don’t know how to knit but my eldest daughter does. She’s the same age as yours. I am just learning how to sew and mend clothes at the moment and am so pleased that I can now rescue my jeans/denims rather than throw them away.

                                                    Alright, that’s all I can think of to say for now. I need to get cracking at the daily wiping and sweeping, else my house would have no chance at being beautiful :). Take care.

                                                    PS: What do you plant in your garden? I need help as a lot of my plants seem to be dying this year. I’m starting to wonder if there is something wrong with the soil.
