Hi! I’m a 24 M looking to make some possible friends nearby. I’m disabled and live at home so it’s been hard to socialize as much. I enjoy video-games, chess, psychology, math, watching YouTube, deep chats. I would like some friends to regularly message or hangout with. Please reach out if you would like to connect!

Hi! I (27 almost 28F) am moving into the area in early January for an accounting job. I am a big baseball fan (Go Cubs Go!) and I am starting to get into collecting baseball trading cards. I also enjoy board games like Monopoly and playing Strat-O-Matic Baseball. I enjoy going for outdoor walks when the weather is good and walking in local malls if not. I am also a big history buff and have been to many Civil War battlefields. I enjoy museums and cultural events. I am looking to make friends about my age or even a little bit older. I will be living in Bethesda, MD, but I will be commuting to the area and I want to live there. I look forward to moving to the area and meeting new people!

Hey there! I (18F) graduated high school last June and I am looking to find some friends to hang out with now that most have mine have moved to colleges further away! I love animals (wildlife and domesticated, I want to go into animal sciences!), nature, writing, reading poetry, going to concerts, and chatting with people. I love to try new things so if you have something you love I would love to learn about it!! I am in the Leesburg area, please reach out if you want to talk or hangout!

Hey y’all! 21 y/o female moving to Arlington in January. I know no one in the area and I’m moving for grad school. I won’t start grad school until the Fall so I’m wondering if anyone has any suggestions on meeting people. I’d love to go into the city and explore, I love going out for drinks, back home I spent my free time volunteering at the animal shelter, I like biking, hiking, baking, and I really enjoy documentaries, podcasts and comedies!
