Topic: Hey…
Seriously,it was damn exhausting and as usual day … nothing changed other than knowing that my colleague is leaving and unfortunately,I came to know very last…I wonder even if he shares most of the things,he couldn’t tell me this ..I felt really bad..still,Just good to know that he is happy….
Just reached home and would like to talk to somebody,who is a stranger….who may become a friend… because,You can freely talk to a stranger sometimes,more freely than whom we think we are very close….this sounds crazy..but it works….In reply to: Looking for a friend

Topic: Using This Site Is Awkward
Maybe that’s a big reason why not much happens. I feel too uncomfortable sending messages to people, unprompted.
So, maybe we can do a thread in which anyone who joins has to send a message to each person already joined (unless that person doesn’t meet basic criteria), but it can also happen the other way around?
Might liven the place up a bit…

Age wouldn’t bother me. I get on well with all ages. It’s just a pity you’re from Cork. Very far away. Lovely little doggies 🙂

I’m also wondering about the same. I’m new to this site. Thought it’s a great idea, but it’s difficult to find someone (in my age).
Good luck for you 🙂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.

Anyone around the Kerry area? I’m into dissecting life, deep talks and figuring out our human purpose. Also love electronic music and dancing, going for coffee etc. 🙂

Hi there!
Hope you’re doing well. I’m reaching out because I’ll be moving to Ireland soon for research, and I thought it’d be nice to connect with some local people beforehand. I am from india and will come from Saudi Arabia for my PhD.I’d love to get a casual feel for life in Ireland—culture, daily vibes, fun stuff to do, or just random chats. Nothing formal, just hoping to have a friendly conversation and get to know folks a bit before I arrive!
No pressure at all—just thought I’d say hi.
Cheers,
Topic: Stay at home mother
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?

Hey folks, I’m Paul and live in Wicklow. Married with no kids. I work for a software company and am a gigantic nerd. Also love motorbikes and playing music. Everything is online these days so I thought it could be a cool place to meet like minded people for chats, hang out.

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!
Hi All
I would like to start by saying it is very difficult to find a job in Ireland from South Africa. I know there is an issue wit immigration but to be honest, My great grandfather was from Ireland and it I just feel I belong there.
Topic: Looking for a friend

Hi I’m Nia, another 40-something Irish lady who has moved back to Ireland after some decades abroad and now find myself wondering “yikes, how on earth do we make new friends at our age!?”. I live in the south-side of Dublin, and work in the creative industries.
My spouse and our daughter have both settled into their new Dublin life really well, I’m just lagging behind a little bit because I work from home a lot. So I’d love to push myself to be more sociable, I’m not a drinker but love getting out for a cuppa, or a pastry!
I love pop music, vegetarian food, reading trashy novels, comedy, video games, all that good stuff! I would consider myself a loyal and supportive friend, I’m still close with my old college pals from back in the day. All new friends welcome, best wishes

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?
In reply to: Good people
There are loads of good people out there. Sadly I think a lot have the same trust issues. Usually caused by one or two bad eggs

Hi Clare, I can totally relate. Where are those genuine good folks that are kind caring and funny… I’ve been searching since thr age of 5…

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 ^_^

Ripley. It’s amazing. Starring Irish actor Andrew Scott.
I loved the neo-noir aesthetic. But the understated actor was what makes this series soooo good. And who knew Dakota Fanning! I mean she’s never really had a role she could dig into to this extent. Quite excellent.
